Short Links for Newsletters
Drive more subscribers with clean, trackable newsletter links.
Growing a newsletter means promoting your sign-up page everywhere — social bios, YouTube descriptions, podcast mentions, and print. Qrinly short links make every promotion URL clean and shareable. Use unique managed links per platform to compare click activity, then use your newsletter platform as the source of truth for completed sign-ups.
Why Qrinly for Newsletter Links
Subscriber Source Attribution
Create one short link per channel and compare click counts to understand which platforms send traffic. Use your newsletter platform to confirm completed sign-ups.
Cleaner Emails and Social Posts
Long sign-up URLs in emails and social captions look cluttered and reduce trust. A short Qrinly link looks intentional, professional, and clean — improving click-through rates on every channel.
Update Destination Anytime
If you move your newsletter to a new platform or change your sign-up page URL, update the short link destination in Qrinly. Every existing promotion keeps working automatically.
Free Plan Available
Track newsletter link performance with no subscription required. Create a free Qrinly account to manage all your newsletter promotion links in one place.
How Newsletter Creators Use Short Links
Sign-Up Page Promotion
Share a short link to your newsletter sign-up page in Instagram bios, YouTube descriptions, podcast show notes, and Twitter bios. Create one unique short link per platform so you can compare which channel drives the most subscribers.
Links Inside Newsletter Emails
Replace long article URLs inside your newsletter issues with clean Qrinly short links. Track which links subscribers click most — useful for understanding which topics and content formats resonate with your audience.
Offline & Print Promotion
Print a short link or QR code on business cards, conference handouts, and promotional materials to grow your list offline. A short link is easy to type, making it far more effective than a full URL on printed materials.
Cross-Channel A/B Testing
Use a unique short link for each promotion channel — Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, email — and compare click-to-sign-up rates side by side in Qrinly. Find which channel is most cost-effective and double your investment there.
How it works
- 1
Copy your newsletter sign-up URL
Grab the URL of your newsletter sign-up page from Substack, Beehiiv, ConvertKit, or your own website. This is the page you want new subscribers to reach.
- 2
Create a short link in Qrinly
Paste the URL above and click 'Shorten Link'. For multi-channel tracking, create one short link per platform — all pointing to the same sign-up page but tracked separately.

Promote everywhere
Add the right short link to each channel: Instagram bio, Twitter bio, YouTube description, podcast show notes, and printed materials. Each link tracks its own channel separately.

Identify your best subscriber source
Check Qrinly's dashboard to compare click counts per channel. Invest more promotion effort in the channels that convert the best — and stop spending time on ones that don't.
