This allows you to create <strong>branded URLs <\/strong>for that one custom domain. However, with Rebrandly, you get <strong>five custom domains <\/strong>in their <strong>free plan.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>That\u2019s right.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You get more custom domains for free than most URL shorteners provide you with paid plans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only does Rebrandly allow you to connect five different custom domains but it also has sophisticated tools to track their popularity as well.

Hence, you must carefully allocate funds to ensure you\u2019re not overspending.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Most URL shortener tools have many different plans to choose from.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to realize that even if you can afford one of the more expensive plans, you must still assess them carefully. In many cases, you may find that you might not have much use for the extra features offered by the more expensive plans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In such a case, opting for a more expensive plan would simply be a waste of money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you first start out, you may not have any funds at all to allocate to a URL shortener service. In this case, you can opt for a tool that offers a free plan.

The tool should not take up your time simply because you\u2019re having trouble learning how to use it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is because time is valuable and all that time you spend learning a complex tool should be going towards your marketing campaign and your brand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ideally, you should be able to pick up and immediately use your URL shortener of choice.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This ensures that you spend as little time learning the extra tool and more time putting it to good use for the benefit of your brand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you opt for any URL shortener service, make sure to read reviews and ensure that the service is simple to use and caters to new users.

The first half of the link is typically the name or an abbreviation of the name of your brand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second part usually has information about what the link is about, such as a product, service, limited offer, or any other aspect related to your current marketing campaign.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Branded URLs increase consumer trust and have higher click-through rates.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, it\u2019s very important that whatever URL shortener you choose has the capabilities to customize the shortened links that it generates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t want generic shortened links that bear the name of the URL shortener service that you used to generate them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tracking_Features\"><\/span>Tracking Features&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a brand with detailed marketing objectives and goals, you must ensure that you are tracking your progress to ensure success.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, if you don\u2019t know what kind of numbers your shortened links are seeing, you\u2019ll have no way to know whether or not your campaign was a success.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The great thing about digital marketing is that <strong>changes can be made on the fly. <\/strong>However, if you don\u2019t have the analytics to make those changes, it becomes impossible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hence, ensure that whatever URL shortener you choose has the capabilities to track the shortened URLs that it generates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many tools out there can provide you with detailed metrics that you can use to create demographics of target audiences that you can approach in later campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Deep_Linking_Features\"><\/span>Deep Linking Features&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many URL shorteners come with features that are not exactly necessary, but they are definitely desirable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is because they make either the consumer\u2019s experience or your experience easier and more streamlined. Deep linking is an example of the former.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They allow users to interact with your shortened links dynamically by using in-app menus. On the other hand, regular links cause users to be redirected to a website on a web browser on their phone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Link_Rotation_Swapping_and_Retargeting_Features\"><\/span>Link Rotation, Swapping, and Retargeting Features<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Other features that are not exactly necessary but definitely desirable include link rotation, link swapping and link retargeting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are all features that can help you out immensely when it comes to optimizing your brand website, finding new customers, and increasing your reach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Link rotation <\/strong>refers to the ability to use a single shortened link to lead to different web pages (or different versions of the same web page). You can tinker with the percentages to ensure that 50% of people go to one page or 50% go to the other.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Naturally, these percentages can be anything you want them to be, as URL shorteners allow you to tinker with them. This feature is great for A\/B testing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Link swapping <\/strong>allows you to change the destination URL of a shortened link that you may have generated in the past. This is a convenient feature because if you want to change a certain URLs destination, you won\u2019t have to do it individually across all pages where you posted it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Link retargeting <\/strong>allows you to add a pixel or a piece of code to your shortened URL that tracks the users that click on it. This tracking pixel can then be utilized to serve them retargeted ads at a later stage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many brands use link retargeting and it\u2019s an extremely powerful tool that you can utilize to secure customers that are on the fence about making a purchase from you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions_FAQs\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/rgU07k05EPN59g4Oj7pB9DAKLmzEIvrY6bJu_2wgfhr3fO7GcpoBxudr2FVAdDsheonI4QZ6e7nPJ9Pt3zZYWxpgd5suHmf0PcouO707z5lbEisZivKT1NmE9ccdT4sAVTMeCcoD4U813TIKOddj0NE\" alt=\"How Long do Shortened URLs Last?\u00a0\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_do_Shortened_URLs_Last\"><\/span>How Long do Shortened URLs Last?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shortened URLs typically last forever unless you specifically set an expiry date for them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many URL shorteners do give you the option to set a custom expiry date if you would like to.
