Stackflyer preview

A cleaner way to share your next Substack post

Your title, description, and cover stay visible—while readers still arrive at the original article.

stackflyer.com/fly/your-link

A clean share link

Use a short stackflyer.com/fly link while readers still land on the original Substack page.

Know what gets opened

See approximate human opens without adding analytics code to your publication.

Respectful by default

Public pages only. No paywall bypass, no login, and no copy of the article is republished.

What happens after “Create”

One short link. Three useful layers.

LinkLift changes how the link is presented—not who owns the content or where readers ultimately land.

01

Read

Stackflyer reads the public title, description, cover, author, and publication name.

02

Present

Your /fly link supplies a polished social card and the optional sharing message you wrote.

03

Deliver

A real reader is sent to the original Substack URL, with your campaign tag when enabled.

Good to know

Useful without pretending to be magic.

No tool can promise distribution on X. LinkLift gives you a clean preview and a measurable route to the original page.

Does LinkLift republish my article?+

No. It stores public metadata for the social card and redirects readers to the original Substack page. The article body is not republished.

Can I edit the title and description?+

Yes. You can tailor the preview and X post copy after creating the link. The original Substack page remains unchanged.

How does click tracking work?+

Stackflyer counts approximate human opens of the short link and excludes common preview bots. It is directional, not a replacement for full analytics.

What happens if I clear my browser?+

The short link keeps working, but this device may lose the private management key needed to edit, view statistics, or deactivate it.

Will card edits appear on X immediately?+

X and other platforms may cache link previews. Stackflyer updates the page immediately, but a previously shared card can take time to refresh on the platform.
