Lnk.Bio’s shorturl feature has long helped users create clean, shareable links for any destination. Whether you’re linking to a document, event, product, or hidden content, shorturls keep things simple and easy to distribute.

Starting today, you can now add a password to any shorturl you create. This new option gives you full control over who can access your link.

🔒 How it works

When creating or editing a shorturl, you’ll now see a new field to set a password. If added, anyone who clicks the link will be prompted to enter the correct password before they are redirected to the final destination.

It’s a quick and effective way to make your shared content more exclusive without changing how you distribute links.

✅ Why use password protection

– Share content only with people you choose

– Give access to previews, documents, or links without exposing them publicly

– Add a simple barrier to reduce unwanted clicks or casual sharing

🚀 How to set it up

  1. Go to Tools => URL shortener

  2. Create a new shorturl or edit an existing one

  3. Use the Password field to set your custom password

  4. Save and share the shorturl as usual

Visitors will need to enter the correct password before reaching the destination.

👥 Who it’s useful for

This feature is ideal for creators, professionals, and businesses who want more control over their links. Some example use cases include:

– Creators sharing exclusive videos, songs, or content with their top fans

– Agencies sending previews or drafts to clients without revealing them publicly

– Teachers or coaches sharing class materials or private lessons

– Event organizers distributing RSVP links to invited guests only

– Influencers or marketers giving early access to special campaigns or offers

– Teams sharing internal documents or prototype links with a select group

 

Whether you’re sharing a special announcement, a hidden resource, or exclusive content, password-protected shorturls give you more control over who gets in.
