Branded Links
Put your own domain on every short link.
Connect a custom domain so links read links.yourbrand.com — more trust, more clicks.
Your domain
Use a branded domain instead of the default.
Higher CTR
Branded links are clicked more and look less like spam.
Easy setup
Add a DNS record and verify in a couple of clicks.
Works everywhere
Branded links carry full analytics, just like the rest.
Branded links replace generic short URLs with your own custom domain, so every link you share reads like go.yourbrand.com/launch instead of an anonymous string. They build trust, lift click-through, and keep your brand front and center across emails, social, and ads. Branded links are ideal for marketers, creators, and small teams who want recognizable, professional URLs without enterprise pricing.
With lynkily you get editable, dynamic short links on Starter at $5/mo, and a fully branded custom domain on Growth at $30/mo — far cheaper than Bitly's ~$35/mo entry tier. It's the affordable way to look polished while keeping full control of every link you publish.
How branded links work
Connect a domain you own (or a short subdomain like go.yourbrand.com), point a DNS record at lynkily, and start creating short links on it in minutes. Every new link uses your domain automatically, and because links are dynamic you can edit the destination later without changing the URL you already shared.
- Custom domain or subdomain on the Growth plan
- Editable, dynamic links so printed or posted URLs never break
- Custom back-half slugs for readable, memorable links
Key capabilities
Beyond the domain itself, branded links come with the controls serious sharers need. Set a custom slug, swap the destination anytime, and pair links with UTM tracking to measure performance.
- Memorable custom slugs instead of random characters
- Dynamic redirects you can update after publishing
- Works alongside QR codes and your link-in-bio page
- Clean, ad-free links — unlike free tiers that inject ads
A real use-case
A small e-commerce brand running a seasonal sale prints shop.brand.com/summer on packaging inserts and posts it on Instagram. Mid-campaign they extend the promo and simply edit the link's destination — no reprints, no broken QR codes, no lost traffic. The branded URL reinforces the brand on every touchpoint, and dynamic editing means one link serves the whole campaign. Explore more tactics on the lynkily blog.
