A random string of letters is the last thing standing between someone and your page — and it doesn't inspire much confidence. QuitURL's URL shortener replaces it with a branded link on your own domain, tracked down to the click, and editable even after you've hit send.
No credit card required · Your first links are free · Import existing links in minutes
Every short link either builds trust or quietly costs you some. Toggle between a typical shortener and a QuitURL link to see the difference before you ever click "shorten."
A random shortener: no brand, no data, and no way to fix a mistake after you've hit send.
Where QuitURL short links show up every day
These are the four ways a plain, unbranded link works against you — and exactly how QuitURL's URL shortener fixes each one.
Nobody trusts a random string of letters — and a growing number of people won't click one at all.
Custom domains and branded slugs — every link reads as go.yourbrand.com/offer, not a stranger's shortener.
You post a link and hope. No idea who clicked, from where, on what device — or if anyone did at all.
Real-time click analytics — device, city, referrer and source, updating the moment someone clicks.
A typo, an ended sale, a moved page — and a link already printed, posted or sent is just broken.
Edit the destination any time. The short link never changes — what it points to can, instantly.
A hundred links across five campaigns pile up into a list nobody can search, sort or make sense of.
Tags, folders, bulk CSV shortening and a REST API — organized at ten links or ten thousand.
go.yourbrand.com beats bit.ly/3xK9pQz every time — in trust, in click-through rate, and in how it looks next to your logo. Connect any domain you already own, then give every link its own readable back-half instead of a random code.
Every click on a QuitURL short link reports back the device, city, browser and referrer it came from — in real time, with nothing extra to set up. See a spike the moment it happens, not in tomorrow's export.
Build a UTM template once — source, medium, campaign — and apply it to every link in that push automatically. Attach retargeting pixels to a short link so anyone who clicks joins your audience before they've even landed on your site.
Made a typo in the destination? Running a sale that ends Sunday? Change where a link points, set it to expire automatically, or lock it behind a password — without touching the short link itself or breaking anything already printed, posted or sent.
Import a CSV of URLs and get branded short links back for every row in seconds. Or skip the dashboard — QuitURL's REST API lets your own tools create, update and track links programmatically, with webhooks firing on every click.
curl https://api.quiturl.com/v1/links \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $QUITURL_KEY" \ -d '{ "url": "https://your-store.com/products/summer", "domain": "go.yourbrand.com", "slug": "summer-drop" }' → { "shortUrl": "go.yourbrand.com/summer-drop", "clicks": 0, "created": true }
Tag links by channel and campaign, apply UTM templates automatically, and hand a shareable analytics dashboard to a client without exporting a single spreadsheet.
Most link shorteners are good at, well, shortening links. QuitURL bundles the branding, controls and analytics you'd otherwise need a second tool for.

"The moment we switched to a branded domain, our email click-through rate went up. Same list, same copy — just a link people recognized."
"I used to dread a typo in a landing page URL after a newsletter went out. Now I just edit the destination and it's fixed everywhere at once."
"Bulk importing four years of old shortened links took one CSV upload. Every redirect kept working — nobody on our team noticed a gap."
"Our clients see a domain with their name on it, not ours. That alone has come up in three renewal conversations this year."

A URL shortener takes a long web address and creates a shorter link that redirects to the same destination. QuitURL's URL shortener also lets you put that short link on your own domain, track every click, and change the destination later.
