Vanity URL generator
Create personalized short links that carry your name — for a podcast, a book, a profile or a campaign.
A vanity URL is a short link built from words people recognise: yourname.com/book, podcast.fm/ep42 or shop.brand/diwali. It is easier to read out on a video or a radio spot than a random code, and it looks trustworthy in print.
Generate vanity links on our short domain for free, or connect a domain you own for a fully personal link.
Shorten your link
Free, instant, no ads. A QR code comes with it.

Personal link shortener for creators
Use a vanity link in your bio, your email signature or at the end of a talk. When the destination changes — a new book, a new episode — update it once.
Unique names, checked for you
The dashboard tells you when a name is already taken on a domain and suggests an alternative.
Measure what people remember
Each vanity link counts clicks by country, device and referrer, so you can see which talk or post brought people in.
