LNKS

Short links

Create branded short links — pick a slug, paste a destination, share the URL.

Short links

A short link points a custom slug at any destination URL. Serve them on lnks.work, on a domain you've added, or on one the platform owner has shared with you.

Open Links in the sidebar.

  1. Pick a domain. The dropdown shows domains you've verified plus any the platform owner has shared with you. If you haven't added any, lnks.work is the default.
  2. Choose a slug. Letters, numbers, _, and - only — up to 64 characters. The input cleans itself up as you type: spaces become -, capitals lowercase, and disallowed characters are stripped.
  3. Paste a destination. Anything that looks like a hostname gets https:// added automatically when you tab away.

Click Create link. The new short link appears in the list below with a click counter that updates every time someone follows it.

Share or copy

Each link in the list has a Copy button that puts the full URL on your clipboard.

Click counts

Every redirect bumps the link's click counter and stamps a last-clicked time. Detailed analytics (by day, referrer, location) are on the roadmap — for now it's a running total.

Click Delete on the row, confirm. This breaks the short link immediately for anyone who's saved it, so be intentional.

Reserved slugs

Some slugs are blocked because they'd collide with platform routes when the same domain is also serving a dashboard:

app, api, auth, login, logout, signup, register, docs, changelog, robots.txt, sitemap.xml, favicon.ico, favicon.svg, uploads, static, assets, fonts, styles.css, health.

If you need a slug that's blocked, use a different one or a short-link-only domain (where these aren't actually in use).

What's next

  • Custom domains — point your own domain at LNKS so your slugs become links.youragency.com/abc.
  • QR codes — turn any link into a styled QR you can print or share.
  • Branding — make sure your logo, name, and accent show up everywhere your users see.
