If you’re a creator, influencer, solo entrepreneur or small business, every link you share is more than just a redirect—it’s a first impression.

Generic short links (think random domains or long URLs) often signal “just another link,” or worse—“spam?”

When you use a link like go.yourbrand.com/deal instead of smplu.link/xY45Z, you’re telling your audience: this is you. That trust translates into more clicks. Research shows branded links can boost click-through rates by up to 39%.
It’s not just about looking good—your links perform better. Studies show branded links increase CTR anywhere between ~30-40 % when compared to generic shorteners.
Whether you post on Instagram, send an email, record a video or print a flyer—your link shows your brand. It reinforces recognition, and recognition builds familiarity. Familiarity builds trust.
