Yourls vs Yohn

We had been using Yourls for years - but then we built Yohn. Here is why it is a great Yourls alternative to consider.

Yourls vs Yohn

We always wanted a custom domain for our shortlinks in social networks and our applications. However, none of the available SaaS solutions looked good enough, so we ended up with Yourls' hosted URL shortener. It was more affordable but we still had to pay for a separate server, take care of its maintenance and monitor its uptime. At some point, the server crashed again and we decided to look for faster and less time-consuming Yourls alternatives. As it turned out, there were none. We realized that we couldn't be the only ones coping with this problem. That's how Yohn was born. We use it ourselves and like it so much that we decided to offer it to other people!

Here's why Yohn rocks...

Features
Yohn
Yourls
Unlimited Branded Links
Yohn uses AWS backend. This allows you to store a virtually unlimited number of shortlinks. The first 1 trillion will be for free :)
Customizable Analytics Reports
With Yohn Ultimate you can customise and organise your report data any way you want on a business intelligence quicksite. Other services usually offer limited standard reports only.
Low (or Zero) Running Costs
Yohn is a serverless application hosted on Amazon services, whose free plan covers most typical use cases. And even if your use of Yohn results in running costs, we expect them to be very low - for example, $0.10 will be enough to cover fetching and processing new statistical data once every 5 minutes for a whole month!
Built-in Data Migration Feature
With Yohn you can seamlessly export your whole short link setup anytime. Other services rarely allow that.
Unlimited User Seats
You and your colleagues can all use Yohn. Just don't share it with any third parties outside of your company, please!
File Sharing from Your Custom Domain
Need to share a file with your audience? Simply send it to the chatbot and get a short link for it.
