Branded domains
Use your own domain like go.yourbrand.com so links look trusted and recognisable.
Custom back-halves
Choose readable endings such as /spring instead of random characters.
Click analytics
See total clicks and trends so you know which links and channels perform.
Editable destinations
Change where a link points after sharing it - the short link never changes.
QR + link pairing
Pair a short link with a dynamic QR code to cover print and digital at once.
Built to scale
Create links for every campaign and channel, and keep them organised in one place.
How a URL shortener works
A short link is a compact URL that redirects to a longer destination. Instead of sharing a long, messy address, you share a clean short link that is easy to read, remember, and print.
Because the redirect is managed, you can change where a short link points at any time - and record every click - without changing the link you already shared.
Why branded short links
Custom back-halves
Choose the end of the link (for example /spring) so it is readable and on-brand instead of random characters.
Your own domain
Use a branded domain like go.yourbrand.com so people trust the link and recognise who it is from.
Branded, trackable short links get more clicks than long, generic URLs - and tell you exactly what is working.
What people use short links for
Anywhere a long URL is hard to share, a branded short link is easier to read, easier to trust, and easier to measure.
Social media bios
Share one clean, trackable link in your profile and update where it points as promotions and content change.
Print and packaging
Put a short, memorable link on flyers, packaging, and signage where a long URL would never fit or be typed.
Marketing campaigns
Give each channel its own short link so you can compare clicks across email, ads, posters, and social.
SMS and messaging
Keep texts short and professional with branded links that fit inside a single message and build trust.
Sales and outreach
Send proposals, booking pages, and follow-ups through short links and see who actually clicked.
QR code destinations
Pair short links with dynamic QR codes so both your printed and digital touchpoints stay editable and tracked.
URL shortener FAQs
Is the URL shortener free?
Yes. You can create and share short links for free. Paid plans add custom domains, higher limits, and advanced click analytics.
Can I use my own domain for short links?
Yes. You can connect a branded domain like go.yourbrand.com so your short links match your brand and build trust.
Can I track clicks on a short link?
Yes. Every short link records clicks, so you can see how many people clicked, when, and which campaigns are driving traffic.
Can I change where a short link points after sharing it?
Yes. Short links use a managed redirect, so you can update the destination at any time without changing the link you already shared.
What is the difference between a short link and a QR code?
A short link is a clickable URL for digital channels, while a QR code is scanned from print. QRSync lets you use both, and a dynamic QR code can point at a short link.
