A: Hi Sumo-ling, Great question! When adding a domain that is already in use, you need to create a subdomain specifically for CutMe Short.

For example, if your main domain is www.google.com, you could enter something like:
• links.google.com
• go.google.com
• short.google.com

This subdomain will be used to generate and manage your branded short links. After entering the subdomain, you’ll need to update your DNS settings by adding the required CNAME record to point it to CutMe Short.
