What Are The Factors That I Am Considering For Comparing These URL Shorteners ?
There are various factors that i am going to consider while comparing these two URL Shorteners. Some of which are as follows:
- Network Age
- Reliability
- Network Coverage
- User Base
- CPM Rates
- Platform
- Minimum Payout
- Payment Frequency
- Payment Options
Network Age:
If you compare these two URL shorteners in terms of their age then you will find that Adfly was started way back in 2009 whereas ClicksFly was started in 2018, so, there a huge difference in their age. This huge difference in their age gives Adfly an upper edge over ClicksFly.
Adfly is far more experienced as compared to ClicksFly. It has almost completed a decade in this industry whereas ClicksFly has just begun its services. So, ClicksFly has to travel a lot more distance to become a network like Adfly.
So, in terms of network age, Adfly wins the race by huge margin but ClicksFly is also a good network and it is growing well so far.
If i have to give marks out of 5 then i would give Adfly a 5 out of 5 and to Clicksfly i would give 4 out of 5 as it can’t do anything for its age. The only thing that ClicksFly can do for now is to stick in the market and provide great services to its users.
Reliability:
Both Adfly and ClicksFly are reliable URL shorteners. They both are paying their users on time and every time. However, here again Adfly wins as it is providing these great services from one decade and it doesn’t have many bad reviews about it. I think maintaining this reputation for a decade is not an easy task and therefore, again i will give Adfly a 5 out of 5 stars.
In case of ClicksFly, it is also a reliable URL shortener and it also doesn’t have many bad reviews about it. So far, it is maintaining its reputation well. However, it still has a long way to go to prove its worth like Adfly and therefore, here again i will give it a 4 out of 5 stars.

In terms of network coverage, both of these URL shorteners monetize worldwide traffic and they almost provide 100% fill rate to users. However, i would say Adfly has a better network coverage as it has tonnes of regular advertisers from all over the world whereas ClicksFly shows Google Adsense ads to monetize publisher links.
So, you can clearly see that Adfly is better in terms of network coverage and therefore, i will give it a 5 out of 5 stars. In case of ClicksFly, i will give it a 4 out of 5 stars.
