Custom domains
Your brand on every link, not a shortener.
Put your own domain on every link and QR code, so what people see is your brand rather than a shortener they do not recognise.

Your brand on every link, not a shortener.
Your domain on every link
Connect a domain or subdomain and your links use it. The URL people see is yours, which is the difference between something that looks official and something that looks forwarded.

Better click-through in practice
Recognisable domains get tapped more than generic shorteners, particularly in email and messaging where link-based scams have trained people to be careful.

Why a generic short domain costs you clicks
It is the most visible part of the link and the part you have the least control over.
Unrecognisable domains look risky
People have been told for years not to tap links they do not recognise, and they mostly listen.
Filters are suspicious of shorteners
Shared short domains carry other people's reputation, including the parts of it you would not want.
No brand impression
A link is one of the most-shared things you produce, and a generic domain wastes every impression of it.
Hard to move later
Links on someone else's domain are not portable. Changing shorteners means every shared URL breaks.
