How Do I Shorten my URLs for SMS?
Best answer by Taylor Tarpley
Hi
Thanks for sharing your SMS question with us, happy to help!
As SMS messages have a 160 character limit, I can definitely understand wanting to ensure your URL isn’t too long and using too many spaces and characters. In fact, it is considered best practice to shorten your links, as stated in our Getting Started with SMS documentation. However, we offer an in-house link shortener in your SMS message template, as shown below, that you can utilize fo this purpose. This feature only needs to be toggled on to use for your SMS messages.
If you’re just getting started in SMS, I’d definitely recommend taking a lot at these additional resources to gain more insight!
- Understand and Review SMS Deliverability
- SMS Certification Academy Course
- Writing SMS and MMS copy
- An Inclusive Library of our SMS/MMS Help Center Documentation
