- Greater number of clicks – people are starting to associate an adf.ly link with advertising and may not click a link for this reason.
- Peace of mind – you own the domain and can download an Excel export of all of your URLs. If you were worried adf.ly may disappear one day (it won’t!) then you are in full control.
