DrutoLink help and documentation

Create your first short link

Paste a destination URL on the home page and shorten it immediately. You can use the basic shortener without creating an account.

When to create an account
Create an account to keep your links, edit their settings, organize campaigns, and view detailed analytics from the dashboard.
Guest links (no account)
Guest links work immediately but remain separate from accounts. Sign in before creating links you need to edit, organize, or analyze from the dashboard.

How it works

The standard workflow from a long destination URL to a managed, measurable short link.

  1. 1

    Enter the destination

    Paste the full URL you want people to visit. DrutoLink validates it before creating the short link.

  2. 2

    Choose link settings

    Use an automatic short code or choose a custom slug. Signed-in users can also set a title, redirect type, schedule, expiration, click limit, password, campaign, UTM values, and targeting rules.

  3. 3

    Share or download a QR code

    Copy the short URL anywhere you need it, or generate a QR code from the link controls for print and offline use.

  4. 4

    Review performance

    Open the dashboard to see clicks over time, unique visitors, locations, devices, browsers, referrers, UTM data, live activity, and other available breakdowns.

What you can manage

Link details

Edit the destination, title, custom slug, redirect behavior, active status, schedule, expiration, click cap, and password.

Campaigns and UTM

Group related links into campaigns and attach UTM parameters so traffic sources remain consistent and measurable.

Audience targeting

Route visitors by geography or device, including country, region, city, desktop, mobile, tablet, iOS, and Android rules.

A/B destinations

Send traffic to multiple destinations using weighted variants, then compare variant performance in analytics.

Analytics

Inspect totals, trends, unique visitors, bots, blocked clicks, geography, devices, browsers, operating systems, languages, referrers, and hourly patterns.

Link health

See whether a link is active, expired, disabled, flagged, or unhealthy, and update it from the link detail view.
