Changelog

Update (July 2, 2023): We are changing the way you create tags on Dub (changelog).

Introducing Tags – a smarter way to manage your links on Dub.

With tags, you can now:

1. Organize your links by campaigns, clients, or any other categories you can think of.
2. Filter your links by tags and get a shareable link to the filtered results.
3. Easily edit/delete your tags with a Notion-style dropdown interface.

This has been a highly requested feature since day one (shoutout to our friends at Refine as well), and we're excited to finally ship it!

Learn more about how to use tags in this help article.

Today, we are introducing a range of improvements to our link management offering:

1. Archiving links: You can now archive your links with the click of a button. Archived links will still work & accrue stats, but will be hidden on your dashboard by default.

2. Show my links only: You can now filter your workspace's links with the "Show my links only" filter, which will hide all links created by other users in your organization, and only show links that you created.

3. Allow '/' in custom shortlinks¹: You can now use '/' in your custom shortlinks. This is useful for adding structure to your shortlinks, e.g. doma.in/r/abc. Huge shoutout to Alex Bass from Efficient for this feature request!

¹ This feature is only available for shortlinks with a custom domain, not dub.sh links.

Introducing keyboard shortcuts on Dub. With shortcuts, you'll be able to speed up your workflow and navigate around Dub faster.

Here's a list of all the shortcuts to get you started:

Have any suggestions for new shortcuts? Let us know by creating a new issue.

Shoutout to Flo for this feature request!

You can now add multiple custom domains to your Dub workspace. This means you no longer need to create multiple workspace for all of your company domains.

You can also filter your existing links by domains, and get an accurate count of how many links you have for each domain.

This feature is available for all plans – including the Free plan. Learn more about how to add a custom domain to your Dub workspace.

Migrating our time-series data to Tinybird earlier this year allowed us to scale our platform by magnitudes.

Thanks to that, we are increasing the limits of our Pro plan from 10,000 clicks per month to 50,000 clicks per month. We hope that this will let you grow your marketing further before having to upgrade to the next billing tier.

We have also sunsetted the previous usage-based pricing model and consolidated everything into the Pro plan.

Check out our new pricing model.

You can now search through your existing short links on Dub.co by their key and destination URL.

This has been a highly requested feature amongst folks with a ton of short links and we're excited to finally ship it!

You can now duplicate a link on Dub with a single click.

This is a quality-of-life improvement for busy marketers to quickly create multiple versions of a link without having to re-enter the same information over and over again.

Shoutout to Cameron Archer from Tinybird for the feature request!

Previously, having billing on a personal account level was a confusing UX.

• Often times, users would upgrade to Pro on their personal accounts, but the Pro plan only applied to the workspaces they owned, not the ones that they are a member of.
• They also couldn't invite teammates to pay invoices.

Migrating billing to the workspace-level fixes that. You can now manage your billing settings under Settings > Billing in your Dub workspace.

You can now create a public stats dashboard for your short links on Dub.

This allows you to share the stats for a given short link with clients or other external stakeholders without having to invite them to your Dub workspace.

We recently migrated all Dub's time-series analytics data from Redis to Tinybird.

This resulted in a ~100x reduction in request bandwidth (and a similar reduction in request speeds).

For context, Tinybird is a serverless analytical backend for you to ingest data and analyze it with SQL. Built on top of Clickhouse, Tinybird is incredibly scalable when it comes to storing and processing time-series events.

Expect faster load times for your link stats pages moving forward!
