Short links

Create short links using the bki.sh domain. Track clicks and share clean URLs.

What are short links?

Short links are compact URLs that redirect to your content:

• Short: bki.sh/abc123
• Redirects to: https://your-long-url.com/path/to/content

Use them in social posts, emails, and anywhere character count matters.

Creating a short link

1. Go to Publish → Short links in the sidebar
2. Click Create short link
3. Enter:
   • Destination URL: Where the link should go
   • Custom slug (optional): Custom ending (e.g., bki.sh/my-link)
4. Click Create

Short link format

Links use the bki.sh domain:

Tracking clicks

Each short link tracks:

• Total clicks
• Click date/time
• (Basic analytics by plan)

View stats:

1. Find the link in your list
2. Click to open
3. See the analytics

Redirect limits

Monthly redirect limits vary by plan:

Redirects reset monthly. Links continue working but stop tracking after the limit.

Managing short links

Edit a short link

1. Find the link in the list
2. Click to open
3. Update the destination URL
4. Save

The short link stays the same; only the destination changes.

Delete a short link

1. Open the short link
2. Click Delete
3. Confirm

Warning: Deleted links return a 404. Any shared links will break.

Custom slugs

Custom slugs make links memorable:

• bki.sh/start instead of bki.sh/x7p9q

Custom slug rules:

• Lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens
• No spaces or special characters
• Must be unique in your workspace

Best practices

Use custom slugs for important links: Makes them shareable and memorable.

Track campaign links: Create separate links for different campaigns.

Monitor usage: Watch for links approaching limits.

Don't delete active links: Check click stats before removing.
