Discover Urlyte's comprehensive URL shortening service. Learn about our free click analytics, custom domains, detailed analytics, and why thousands choose Urlyte for their link management needs.

What URLyte Does

URLyte is a professional URL shortening service built around one core idea: your links should carry your brand, not someone else's. Every link you create at URLyte lives under a namespace you control, making your short links recognisable, trustworthy, and trackable.

Since launching, URLyte has helped thousands of users create branded short links for marketing campaigns, social media, printed materials, and developer integrations.

The Platform

Branded namespaces

A URLyte namespace gives you a permanent home for your links: urlyte.com/yourbrand/anything. Create multiple namespaces for different brands, teams, or campaigns. Each namespace is independent, with its own analytics and shortcodes.

Click analytics

Every click is recorded. URLyte shows you total clicks, weekly trends, geographic distribution (country level), and device breakdown (desktop vs mobile vs tablet). Pro users get full interactive charts and per-link deep dives.

QR codes

Every link generates a downloadable QR code automatically. The QR code points to the same destination as your short link, update the destination and the QR code follows without needing to be reprinted.

Security scanning

URLyte checks every URL against Google Safe Browsing before allowing it to be shortened. Links pointing to known phishing, malware, or social engineering sites are rejected immediately. Existing links are re-scanned periodically.

Direct links

Create a 5-character short link in seconds without any setup, just paste a URL and get a link. Logged-in users can manage and track all their direct links from the dashboard.

Plans

URLyte offers a free plan, a Pro plan at $5/month, and a Business plan at $15/month. The free plan is genuinely functional, you get a namespace, shortcodes, analytics, and QR codes. Paid plans unlock higher limits and full analytics. See urlyte.com/pricing for details.

Who Uses URLyte

URLyte is used by solo creators, marketing teams, e-commerce businesses, SaaS companies, and developers. Anything that involves sharing links publicly benefits from branded, trackable short links.
