Introducing 1-year Free .Link Domains On All Paid Plans

Today, we're excited to announce two new ways to create memorable short links on Dub – a 1-year complimentary .link domain on all paid plans and a new premium domain: dub.link.

Introducing 1-year Free .Link Domains On All Paid Plans

A few weeks ago, we wrote an article about the importance of using a custom domain for your short links. In case you missed it, here are the key benefits:

  • Better brand recognition – instead of a generic short link, take your brand to the next level with memorable custom domains like company.link/xyz.
  • Prevent your links from getting blocked – AT&T and other ISPs actively block generic short links because they're often used for malicious activities.
  • Bonus: It's free to use on Dub – we let you connect up to 3 custom domains on our Free plan.

Today, we're introducing two new ways to create memorable links on Dub:

  1. Complimentary .link domain for all paying customers
  2. New premium domain: dub.link

We're excited to announce that we have partnered with Nova Registry to offer a 1-year free .link domain to all paying Dub customers.

This domain is a great way for you to get started with custom domains and create short links that match your brand. .link domains are also more trustworthy and can lead to 30% higher click-through rates than generic short links.

The best part? You can claim your free .link domain in 1-click – no need to worry about configuring any DNS records or setting up SSL certificates.

To claim your free .link domain, you can navigate to your workspace's domains dashboard and click on the Claim Domain button. Check out this help article for more details.

Still not ready to commit to a custom domain? No sweat.

That's because today, we're also launching a new premium short domain on Dub: dub.link.

This domain is only available to customers on our Pro plan or higher, making it much more exclusive than our free dub.sh short domain.

To start using the dub.link domain, you can navigate to your workspace's domains dashboard, scroll down to the Default Domains section, and enable the dub.link domain.

What's next?

We're excited to see what you create with these new domains. By leveraging a custom domain on Dub, you can now create short links that are memorable, trustworthy, and tailored to your brand.

In the coming months, we are planning to add the following features:

  1. Support for other top-level domains (e.g. .me, .dev, .xyz, etc.)
  2. Integrations with other platforms (e.g. WordPress, Buffer, etc.)
