Congrats on the launch Scott, great product by a great dev 💪 What's next for Plink? Any plans to add a webapp for managing/customizing short links.
Scott Mathson
@ramiro_nunez_dosio thanks Ramiro, exciting indeed! Appreciate the compliment :-) A lot is coming up! And yes, I've been writing plenty of JS, working towards developing sections of a self-service webapp. There's some things within Plink like the ability to help podcasters earn passive money in adding their Apple Services ( iTunes) affiliate IDs to paid, custom links that are quite manual at the moment. So the webapp will provide functionality that rids of any manual bottlenecks in onboarding process. The webapp will give customers options to customize/add-to/manage their links, and ultimately will be where UI with analytics and more will live. Optimizing Plink now involves building functionality like this so that customers can have more control, be further empowered, and be off-to-the-races on their own right away.

Any plans to add a monthly plan too?
Scott Mathson
@corey_haines yeah, so Plink's custom short links (branded, short plnk.to URLs) are charged on annual basis right now. Given some of the other things mentioned throughout PH thread today, things like analytics and functionality I'm scoping like custom domains (DNS-level, ex: go.yourdomain.com), among other things, yes! I'm continually interviewing customers/discussing, and planning the roadmap. But yes, there will be a monthly plan eventually! Main focus now is in providing webapp for customers to create/manage/customize aspects of their links, but that lays groundwork for UI being built for analytics and other features within webapp to come that will all be part of robust monthly plan offering from Plink. Thanks for asking Corey!
