Read articleTracking Link Diff
Compare an original and final tracking URL to see what changed, disappeared, or was added.
Compare two tracking URLs
Paste the original campaign URL and the final URL to see which hosts, paths, or tracked parameters changed on the way through the funnel.
What this diff checks
Tracking Link Diff compares two URLs and highlights host, path, and tracking-parameter differences so you can prove what changed between the original link and the final landing URL.
Why use this diff
Prove where data changed
Show whether fbclid, gclid, subid, or UTM values disappeared or changed between two URL states.
Review before and after
Compare pre-tracker and post-tracker URLs, safe and money pages, or the original ad link versus the final landing URL.
Escalate with evidence
Give developers, tracker owners, or partners a before-and-after view instead of vague bug reports.
