Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about LinkShort.

How do short links work?
When someone clicks your short link, our server instantly looks up the destination URL and redirects them with a 302 response. The entire process takes under 50 milliseconds. Every click is tracked with referrer, location, and device data.
Can I use custom slugs?
Yes. You can choose your own custom slug (like /my-campaign) or let us auto-generate a short, unique one. Custom slugs must be unique across the platform.
What analytics are tracked?
Every click records the timestamp, referrer URL, user agent, country, and city. You get charts showing clicks over time, top referrers, and geographic breakdowns.
Can links expire?
Yes. You can set an expiration date on any link. Once expired, the link returns a 410 Gone response. You can also manually deactivate links at any time.
Is there an API?
Yes. Full REST API for creating, updating, deleting, and querying analytics for your links. Authenticated with your session token.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes unlimited links, full click analytics, custom slugs, and link management. No credit card required.
