Why custom domains are coming soon
4/21/2026
Custom domains matter. They also need to be implemented carefully.
The first url4all release uses hosted domains so sharing works immediately:
go.url4all.comfor short linksmy.url4all.comfor public profiles
Why not ship domains immediately?
Custom domains require more than a text field. The product needs reliable DNS verification, certificate provisioning, ownership checks, routing behavior, and clear recovery paths when a domain changes hands.
What this means now
Use url4all-hosted links and profiles for launch. They are stable, shareable, and aligned with the first release:
Short links
go.url4all.com
Profiles
my.url4all.com
Custom domains
coming soon
That keeps v1 honest while leaving room to add branded domains properly later.
