Short links
Publish campaign redirects on a branded root domain or subdomain configured for Linktery.
DOMAINS
Custom Domains for Short Links and Public Profiles
Run links and profiles on a domain your audience already associates with your creator identity, business, or client campaign.
Public profiles
Use the same domain system for creator profiles while keeping each slug globally unambiguous.
Alias support
Continue using Linktery alias domains for redirect traffic while linktery.com remains the canonical product website.
Root domains, subdomains, and aliases
A root domain is the primary host such as example.com. A subdomain adds a dedicated label such as go.example.com. Either can be useful, but a subdomain is often easier to isolate from an existing website.
Linktery also supports shared alias domains for public redirect and profile traffic. Those aliases do not replace linktery.com as the canonical domain for product and SEO pages.
- Root domain for a dedicated link brand
- Subdomain alongside an existing website
- Shared aliases for quick publishing
- Canonical product pages on linktery.com
A safe connection workflow
Domain ownership is verified through DNS. Copy the record exactly, avoid removing unrelated website or email records, and allow time for DNS changes to propagate.
After verification, test HTTPS, a short link, and a public profile before publishing the domain in a large campaign.
- Review existing DNS records
- Add only the requested record
- Confirm domain verification
- Test HTTPS and both slug types
Avoiding route conflicts
A public slug can represent either an active short link or a public profile, so Linktery reserves uniqueness across both collections. This prevents one address from resolving differently depending on timing.
System routes such as pricing, features, tools, and account pages remain separate from user-created slugs.
- One resource per public slug
- Server-side uniqueness checks
- Reserved system path prefixes
- Consistent behavior across supported domains
Frequently asked questions
Should I use a root domain or subdomain?
Use a subdomain if your root domain already hosts a website. Use a root domain when the entire domain is dedicated to short links and profiles.
Do alias domains change Linktery's canonical website?
No. Alias domains are used for public redirects and profiles, while linktery.com remains the canonical product and SEO domain.
Why must profile and short-link slugs be unique?
Because both are served from the same /slug format, uniqueness guarantees that each public address has one deterministic meaning.
