How it works
Instagram auto reply with a link
When someone comments your word, Mr Clerko can send them a DM that leads to your link. Here is exactly how the link arrives, how its clicks are counted and how long it keeps opening.

How the link arrives
The first DM carries a button, such as “Send me the link”. When the person taps it, a second message arrives with a button, such as “Open link”, that opens your page through a short Mr Clerko link. You can change both button texts; each is cut to 20 characters when sent.
How clicks are counted
The short link counts the click, then forwards to your page. Repeat taps from the same network on the same day count once. Clicks show on your Home page (“Link clicks” and “Tracked link rate”), in Analytics (“Clicked the link”) and per account in Billing. The Free plan counts up to 100 clicks a month; after that the link still opens and only the counting stops.
How long a sent link opens
90 days after the link message was sent. After that, the short link shows an error page instead of opening your page.
Links in DM automations are different
In automations that reply to DMs, a link is added as the last line of the text, not as a button, and its clicks are not counted.
