Show HN: SimpleURL – An Affordable URL Shortener with Branded Link and Analytics

1•ronakkhunt•2mo ago
Hello Hacker News,

We've been quietly working on SimpleURL.tech, a URL shortener built for small businesses and marketers who need reliable branded links and advanced analytics without the typical enterprise pricing.

We found that many shorteners offer decent free tiers but charge excessively for essential marketing features like custom domains and the ability to edit a link's destination after it's been shared.

This puts powerful tools out of reach for small teams.

The Solution We Built: SimpleURL focuses on delivering the features that directly impact marketing ROI, packaged affordably:

1. The Branded Link Necessity: We make it simple to set up a custom short domain (e.g., go.yourbrand.com). This is crucial for building trust and increasing CTR, as discussed widely in marketing circles.

2. Affordable Feature Set: Our pricing is designed to be accessible. We include features often hidden in expensive tiers, such as unlimited link editing and advanced tracking (location, device, time of click).

3. No-Friction Testing: We believe you should test the full power of a Pro account before paying. We offer a full 15-day Pro trial that requires absolutely no payment method. Just sign up, connect your domain, and start tracking.

Technical Note:On the back-end, we use a robust system centered around 301 redirects and HTTPS security to ensure high speed and link equity transfer.

We are Looking for Feedback:

We’re trying to find the sweet spot between high-end features and small-business pricing.

If you use branded links today, how does our approach to domain setup compare to your current tool?

What are the most critical features that you believe must be included in an entry-level professional plan?

We'd appreciate any constructive feedback on the service or its pricing model.
