Why short links with your own domain?
A short link on lmy.de is practical. For companies and brands, however, your own domain is worthwhile: instead of lmy.de/xyz the link becomes, for example, go.yourcompany.de/offer. This looks more professional, strengthens recognition and measurably increases the click rate, because users trust your own address more than a foreign one.
Benefits of branded short links
- Trust & brand consistency: your brand stays visible in every link.
- Higher click rate: clearly recognizable links are avoided less often.
- Full control: you keep your data and statistics.
- Usable everywhere: email, social media, print, QR codes, messengers.
How to set up your own domain
- Add the domain in the lmy.de dashboard under "Domains".
- Set the DNS entry (CNAME) with your domain provider.
- Activate SSL (automatically, free of charge).
- Create and share your first branded link.
Setup usually takes only a few minutes.
