Understanding Destination URLs

When using a URL shortener, you're essentially creating two URLs:

Shortened URL: This is the user-friendly version you share, often shorter and more manageable than the original link.
Destination URL: This is the "behind-the-scenes" address where users ultimately land after clicking your shortened link. It's also known as the landing page.

Manage Your Branded Links with Flexibility

Rebrandly empowers you to easily update your links. Here's what you can do:

Change Destination URL: Modify where your branded link directs users (restrictions may apply based on your plan). Free plans don't allow destination URL edits, but upgrading unlocks this powerful feature.
Update Primary Branded Link URL/Domain: Completely change the core address of your branded link. However, this deactivates the old short link. Consider this option for significant branding changes.
