Short links under your own domain

What you get
Your domain, your brand
Add any domain you own. All links you create under it show your domain - no HidURL branding visible.
DNS verification
Ownership confirmed with a single DNS TXT record. Set it once and your domain is verified permanently.
Multiple domains
Add up to 10 custom domains per account. Use different domains for different campaigns or clients.
Choose per link
Select the domain each time you create a link. Mix branded and default links from the same account.
Same security
Custom domain links go through the same SSRF protection, rate limiting, and abuse monitoring as all HidURL links.
Full analytics
Branded links include the same click tracking, device breakdown, and referrer reporting as standard links.
Where branded links make a difference
Email marketing
Recipients trust links that match the sender's domain. Branded links reduce spam-filter false positives and increase click rates.
SMS campaigns
Character limits make short links essential. A branded domain keeps the link short and recognisable to your audience.
Social media
Your brand stays visible even after a link is reshared. No third-party domain diluting your identity in feeds and previews.
White-label resellers
Agencies and platforms can offer URL shortening under their own brand by connecting a custom domain - fully white-labelled.
How to set up a branded domain
Add your domain
Go to Settings - Domains, enter your domain (e.g. go.yourcompany.com), and click Add.
Set DNS records
Add a CNAME pointing your domain to hidurl.com, and a TXT record to verify ownership. Takes about 2 minutes.
Verify and use
Click Verify once DNS has propagated. Your domain turns active and you can select it when creating links.
Available on Pro and above
