Shortener Service with Analytics Tagging included?
-
Dear Mozzers,
who can help me on this. I'm looking for a (PRO) Shortener, that will work with my personal domain, where I can directly add the Google Anatocy Tagging (utm_source / utm_medium, etc..)
Do you know a service that provides this?
Thanks, andre

One of my colleagues wrote a firefox extension for shortening URLs with Analytics Tracking Variables tacked on. When loaded up in firefox you can give it a URL, or have it grab the page URL for the page you are currently viewing. You can check it out here to see if it fits your needs:
http://www.tysonkirksey.com/snip-n-tag/
It has the following shortening options: bit.ly, goo.gl, Tiny URL, is.gd. cli.gs, and safe.mn
Not sure if that hits your main need, but thought I would toss it out there as it can be useful.

What metrics does the fb:admins Facebook Open Graph tag actually provide?
I'm considering implementing the "fb:admins" Open Graph tag on our website to provide our social media team with additional analytics. We already have the other standard OG tags in place. My question is twofold: Can you use a Facebook Page ID rather than an individual user's account ID? What data, specifically, will this tag provide? Our site already has an official Facebook Page and I'm curious whether this tag would make any NEW information available, outside of what we can already get within the Page Insights. I would love to see a screencap if anyone has it implemented! Facebook outlines the tag usage here, but it's not exceedingly helpful: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/insights/ Thanks guys!

Should URLs in tweets be spelled out or shortened?
For SEO purposes to get links, does it make any difference whether URLs are shortened? Do the search engines analyze key words in twitter URLs for relevance?

My current shopping cart uses OG tags on about 1/2 of all pages, it puts them on product pages and that about it. Would it be beneficial to have these tags on all pages? Thanks for your time.
