Yes, it's possible.

However, before you begin, please make sure you have followed the instructions on How to setup a subdomain for short links.

To add www to your subdomain

  1. Go to your domain registrar and add a CNAME record as follows:

    • Host: www . <your-subdomain-name>

    • Type: CNAME

    • Value: cname.short.io

    For example:

Important note: If the domain is Inactive in Short.io then wait for a few hours and click on Refresh to check if the status has changed.

Hereafter, the links you shorten using this subdomain can be accessed in one of two ways: either with or without "www" at the beginning.
