Questions

Your questions, answered.

How do I shorten a Google Maps link for directions?

In Google Maps, open the place or route, tap Share, and copy the link. Paste it into Reqlick and set a slug like /directions or /office. The short link opens the location, route, or place listing on the visitor's phone. Print it on invitations or business cards, or add it to your emails.

How do multi-location businesses manage Google Maps links?

Create one Reqlick short link per store, such as /downtown and /airport, each pointing at that store's Google Maps listing. Use them on your store locator page, in emails, and in print. If a store moves, edit that link's destination, and existing materials send people to the new address.

Can I see which store's directions link gets the most clicks?

Yes. With one Reqlick link per location, the dashboard shows clicks per store, plus where visitors click from and which device they use. Referral data shows whether the click came from your website, an email, or social media. Together, that tells you which channels send people looking for directions.

Can I make a directions link for a one-day event that stops afterwards?

Yes. On Reqlick Pro and Business you can set an expiration date so the event directions link stops working after the event. On Starter, which costs $15 a month for 150 short links, point the link somewhere useful afterwards, such as your next event page. Every plan includes unlimited redirects.
