Overall Satisfaction with Rebrandly

We use Rebrandly for every blog post & article we create. It's great because a lot of our documentation uses the short links that Rebrandly creates for us, and when sharing posts on social media channels or in internal knowledge-bases, keeping the links short is the key to getting more clicks on our posts.

Pros

  • Quickly and easily create shortlinks for any link.
  • Manage custom domains.
  • Manage existing shortlinks and delete them quickly.
  • Autoshare the created links to various social media channels.

Cons

  • Ability to categorize links, for example, ones that are for knowledge bases and ones for blog posts.
  • More clicks on our links.
  • Less emails & messages from members/users asking where things are.
Bit.ly and other services that shorten and manage links are great, but there are a few problems:
  • It can be expensive to add your own custom domain - with Rebrandly it's free.
  • With certain products, you aren't able to set the link text, which can lead to confusing links like my.short.link/ah74vt rather than the cleaner my.short.link/rebrandlyreview.
No matter what timezone you're in, the support is fantastic and always fast - for me, it's always been within the hour. And even when I don't get the answers I'm looking for, the support team always attempts to provide me with an alternate solution to the same problem - which is very helpful and kind.

Yes

If you're a company that has a large and extensive knowledge base, or a company that shares a lot of posts & news updates, a service like Rebrandly is essential. Rebrandly is by no means the only one out there, but the advantages are:
  • Great offers & deals
  • You can include your own custom domains for free
  • Easy to manage & maintain
  • Fast customer support. I'm in GMT +8, but I always get replies within an hour
If your company/website is more static, with less information flow, link shortening services aren't really essential.
