How do I shorten a YouTube link with my own brand name?
Paste any YouTube URL into Reqlick, including videos, Shorts, playlists, channels, or live streams. Set a slug such as /tutorial, and connect a custom domain so the link reads go.yourbrand.com/tutorial. Share it in emails, posts, or print. Reqlick records clicks, countries, devices, and referral sources for each tracked click.
Can one short link always point to my newest YouTube video?
Yes, if you update it. Create a Reqlick short link such as /latest-video and edit its destination each time you publish. Links in your email signature, bio, and printed materials then open the new upload. Reqlick does not detect uploads automatically, so make the edit part of your publishing routine.
How do I see which newsletter or post sent viewers to my YouTube video?
Reqlick shows referral sources for clicks on a YouTube short link, such as X, Instagram, newsletters, or blog posts. Create one link per channel for a cleaner comparison. YouTube Studio reports watch time, while Reqlick shows the clicks you drove from outside YouTube. Add UTM parameters when a link goes to your own site.
Can I set a YouTube contest link to stop working after the deadline?
Yes, on Reqlick Pro and Business. Set an expiration date on the short link and it stops working after that date, which suits contest entries and limited-time promotions. Pro costs $39 a month with 1,000 short links. Starter, at $15 for 150 links, does not include expiration, but you can edit the destination by hand.
