Create Branded Custom Short URLs

Free, no sign-up required. Your link will be ready in seconds.

Generic short links from unknown domains erode trust. Branded short links put your name front and center, telling recipients exactly who sent the link before they click. With y.hn, you can create branded links in two ways: use custom slugs on the y.hn domain (like y.hn/acme-sale) or connect your own custom domain for full white-label branding (like go.acme.com/sale).

Branded links consistently outperform generic short URLs in click-through rates. Studies show branded links receive up to 39% more clicks because people trust recognizable names. For businesses sharing links in marketing emails, social media ads, SMS campaigns, and printed materials, this trust translates directly into higher engagement and better campaign ROI. Your brand stays visible at every touchpoint.

y.hn's branded link platform includes full analytics for every link, team collaboration features so multiple team members can create links under the same brand, link organization with folders and tags, and API access for automated link creation. Set up your custom domain in minutes with a simple DNS CNAME record, and start creating branded links immediately. Available on Business plans.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I set up a custom branded domain?
Add a CNAME DNS record pointing your subdomain (e.g., go.yourdomain.com) to y.hn. Once verified in your dashboard, all new links can use your custom domain. SSL is provisioned automatically. Setup typically takes under 5 minutes.
Do branded links cost extra?
Custom domain branded links are available on Business plans. Custom slugs on the y.hn domain (e.g., y.hn/yourbrand) are available on Pro plans at no extra cost.
Can multiple team members create branded links?
Yes. Business plans include team seats, allowing multiple people to create and manage branded links under the same custom domain with role-based access controls.
Do branded links include analytics?
Yes. Every branded link includes the same full analytics as standard y.hn links: click counts, geographic data, device breakdowns, referral sources, and time-series charts.
