Why do my tracking links say .vg?

Why do my tracking links say .vg?

Posted by The Team at Mindmatrix on 10 July 2017 01:54 PM

Sometimes you'll see links with .ly, .gl, .me or other domain names.  Many link tracking or link shortening services have unique links specific to their offering.

Mindmatrix uses .vg at the end of our tracking links because all of our installs have .vg at the end of the URL.
