Shortlinks are short, memorable URLs on your own domain that redirect anywhere you want. Instead of reading a long sponsor URL on air, you can say "go to yourdomain.com/deal" — and send listeners exactly where they need to go.
Available on the Pro plan and above.
How to create a shortlink
- In your dashboard, go to Settings → Shortlinks and add a new shortlink.
- In the Shortlink field, enter the path you want — for example, /deal for yourdomain.com/deal.
- In the Redirect to field, enter the destination: a full external URL (like a sponsor's landing page) or a path on your own site (like /about).
- Optionally add a Description so you remember what the link is for, then click Save.
The link works immediately — anyone visiting yourdomain.com/deal is redirected to the destination.
Ideas for using shortlinks
- Sponsor offers: yourdomain.com/sponsor → the sponsor's tracking URL, so you get a clean link to say on air.
- Campaigns: yourdomain.com/survey or /giveaway → a form or landing page.
- Anything long: point a short path at any URL that's too clumsy to read aloud.
Organizing and tracking your links
- Categories: group your shortlinks (by sponsor, by campaign) using the Categories tab at the top of the Shortlinks page.
- Click tracking: on the Elite plan, the shortlink list shows 7-day and total click counts for every link — see viewing shortlink click data.
- Import and export: bring in a list of shortlinks or export yours as a CSV from the same page.
Tip: Podpage also creates automatic Quick Links like yourdomain.com/51 for numbered episodes — no setup needed. Use Shortlinks for everything else.
