Switching

Moving from Rebrandly to Setup101

  1. 01Keep Rebrandly for branded links to things that aren't products.
  2. 02Move product links into setups, so one link covers the whole set and products can change without edits.
  3. 03If you want a branded URL, point a Rebrandly link at your Setup101 setup.

Links you've already put in old videos and posts will keep pointing at Rebrandly until you change them. Update your most-viewed content first, using our free link checker to find any that are already broken. Then use one permanent setup link per video, so this is the last time you edit them.

Questions, answered

Common questions

Does Setup101 shorten links?
Each setup has its own short, shareable link. It isn't a general-purpose shortener; Rebrandly is better for that.
Is there a limit on changing products?
No. Swap products in a setup as often as you like; the setup link stays the same and doesn't count as an edit.
Can I use both?
Yes. A branded Rebrandly link pointing at a Setup101 setup works fine.
