How to implement link redirect in cold mail

[social_newbie]

Hi therer
I am now using free esps like hotmail to send bulk cold mails
In cold mail I need to insert a link in the mail body
The link contains the mail track info so I know which email is clicking

Now I am doing like this
Shortten url --> my domain(will save the track info to db) ---> redirect to offer page

The problem is that my domain seems very quikly been detected by ESPs even with shortten url service

Is there any better way to implement this?

Or is there any black hat way to do this?

Thanks in advance

Are you sure about that is the problem?
Check if there is any problem with your deliverability.

Hi, thanks for the help
If the mail can be sent out, then it has good deliverablity, I have around 700 clicks 10k mails,
It maybe also because the account send too much mail with the link inside?

Hi, one more question, is there any good to pass extra parameter through short url​

In my case I use apend "#{mail_id}" at the end of short url , I have to use js code to get the para after #,
this way seem lots of clicks been blocked

Is there better way for this?

You can use just htaccess to convert the url.com/#{mail_id} back to url.com/index.php?tracking={mail_id}
