Thanks, but I am wondering how this is possible, unless the search bots could identify that it is a link shortener

Does Bitly hurt your SEO?posted in Technical SEO
I often use bit.ly or Google URL shortener in links when other websites post my articles so I can track clicks. However, I am thinking this may HURT my SEO given that it is taking away a back link to my website. Is that logic correct ?
If so, what is a good way to be able to track clicks if a website posts your article without jeopardizing the SEO value?
