In Daisychain, you can choose to automatically shorten URLs that you send in your texts. This allows you to track your link clicks and have a shorter overall message length.
Head to Settings > URL Shortening to turn this feature on or off, and to select which domain you'd like to use for your URL. Our default link shorteners are:
- go.daisychain.app
- givelink.io
- eventlinks.org
We can also set up a custom short link for you! Custom short links may increase deliverability (and client receptiveness). If you’re interested, please fill out this form.
For low volume senders, we may pass along registration costs of custom domains to you. Average turnaround time is 1-3 business days.
We provide URL shortening for a few reasons:
-
URL shortening enables Daisychain to track who clicked/tapped on the link you sent out.
-
URL shortening enables you to keep your messages short, which can increase deliverability rates and reduce the number of segments in your messages.
Using a generic URL shortener (like bit.ly or TinyURL) makes it more likely that your messages gets flagged as spam and filtered out.
