Changelog

You can now sign in to your Dub.co account with GitHub.

If you have an existing Dub.co account with an email address that matches your GitHub account, you can sign in with either method moving forward.

Short links on Dub are now case-insensitive by default.

This means that if you have a short link d.to/GitHub, you can now access it via d.to/Github or d.to/github – and the click events will be aggregated under the lowercase version of the link.

This will help prevent broken links when users accidentally type the wrong case.

You can now use the default domains on Dub (e.g. dub.sh, chatg.pt, spti.fi, amzn.id) inside your Dub workspace.

As part of this change, all personal links have also been migrated to a workspace on Dub. You can find your personal links under a workspace named after your name or email.

This also means that you can now use dub.sh links with our REST API.

We've built a tool to help you migrate your Rebrandly links to Dub.

With the Rebrandly migration assistant, all you need to do is enter your Rebrandly API key, choose the domains & tags you want imported, and we'll handle the rest!

Clicks by bots are no longer counted for Dub-powered links.

Some examples of bots include search engine crawlers (GoogleBot), social media bots (Twitterbot), and link preview bots (Slackbot-LinkExpanding).

In the past, we've received feedback that bots were inflating the click counts for Dub-powered links. This update will help to address that.

Clicks on Dub-powered links are now deduplicated for better tracking accuracy.

In the past, we've received feedback that duplicate clicks from the same IP address can be misleading – especially for affiliate link tracking.

From now on, Dub will only count the first click from each IP address within a 1-hour period. This will help you get a more accurate picture of your link performance.

We've made a few improvements to password-protected links on Dub.

• Clicks on password-protected links are only tracked when the correct password is entered
• You can now pass a pw query parameter to the link to automatically authenticate and redirect the user to the destination URL (shoutout to Alex for the feature request)
• On a Pro plan and above, you can now set a custom logo for your password-protected links
• Previously, password-protected links didn't work with geo/device-targeting. This has been fixed.

You can now quickly access the last clicked date for your short links simply by hovering over the click count badge on your links.

You can also sort your links by their last clicked date to see which links are still active and which are not.

Shoutout to Patrick for the feature request!

You can now inspect short links on Dub by adding a + sign to the end of the short link.

For example, if you want to inspect the short link https://d.to/github, you can visit https://d.to/github+ to see the destination URL for the short link.

You can also report a short link if you think it is malicious or spam – learn more.

You can now redirect your users to different links based on their location.

This is useful if you want to do location-based personalization. For example, you can redirect your UK users to a UK-specific landing page, with the rest of the world going to your global landing page.
