TL;DR

UTM parameters are essential for tracking where your traffic comes from and improving marketing strategies. However, creating multiple links for different platforms can be tedious. Enter Dynamic UTM Parameters on CutMe Short—now you can use dynamic values like source, location, device type, and more, reducing the number of links you need to create by up to 10x!

Why UTM Parameters Are Vital (and Why Dynamic UTMs Are Revolutionary)

Marketers have long relied on UTM (Urchin Tracking Module) parameters to track the performance of their links across platforms. These parameters help in understanding where your traffic is coming from, how it’s engaging with your content, and which sources drive the most conversions.

Traditionally, UTM parameters are static—you’d need to create a separate link for each platform or campaign, which quickly adds up to hundreds of URLs. With Dynamic UTM Parameters, that’s no longer the case. You can now create one smart link that adapts dynamically based on where it’s clicked, massively reducing the time and effort needed for link management.

How to Create a Dynamic UTM Short Link on CutMe Short (Step-by-Step Guide)

Step 1: Login to your CutMe Short Account.

Step 2: Navigate to the Create New Link section and enter the destination URL you want to shorten.

Step 3: In the UTM Parameters section, you can now enter dynamic UTM values using placeholders. For example, instead of manually entering “facebook” for utm_source, you can now use {{utm_source}}, which will dynamically adapt based on the platform.

Step 4: Choose your other UTM parameters (such as utm_medium, utm_campaign, etc.), and combine dynamic variables where relevant.

Step 5: Once you’re done, hit Create Link, and you now have a smart, dynamic UTM link ready to share!

How Users Can Experiment with Dynamic UTM Combinations

One of the best aspects of dynamic UTM parameters is the ability to create custom combinations for campaign names or content tags.

Here are some examples of how you can use them to better organise your marketing efforts:

By using dynamic combinations, you can create unique, SEO-friendly campaign names without manually creating separate links for each source.

How Dynamic UTMs Integrate Seamlessly with Google Analytics

When you use dynamic UTM parameters, the data is still structured and readable in Google Analytics. Instead of cluttering your analytics with multiple links, you’ll get a clean, platform-specific breakdown of your traffic:

• utm_source will automatically display as Facebook, Instagram, etc.

• All other dynamic parameters will follow suit, meaning your campaign insights will still be granular, but with fewer links to manage.

This allows marketers to track multiple platforms and campaigns without losing clarity in their Google Analytics reports.

The Power of Dynamic UTMs: Less Effort, More Impact

One of the most time-saving benefits of dynamic UTM parameters is that they drastically reduce the number of links a marketer has to generate. Instead of creating separate UTM links for Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and Twitter, you can create one link with dynamic parameters, which will automatically adapt based on the platform.

For example:

• If you usually create 5 separate links for 5 platforms, with dynamic UTMs, you now only need 1 link.

• This reduces link creation effort by 5x or even 10x, depending on the number of platforms you manage!

In short, with Dynamic UTMs in CutMe Short, you save time, avoid errors, and maintain an organized, data-driven marketing approach.
