Customizing your Campaign Link
By default, Campaign links will be a random series of letters and numbers, but changing this is easy! We strongly recommend customizing the URL of all your Givebutter Campaigns for two key reasons:
Potential Donors will feel more comfortable clicking on a link and donating when it looks more familiar/recognizable to them.
Having a legible URL has been proven to improve rankings in search engines, meaning your link is more likely to appear higher in Google searches.
How do I edit my Campaign URL?
Campaign URLs are customized in the Sharing section of the Campaign Manager
First, navigate to your Givebutter Dashboard.
Select your Campaign from the recent Campaign list on the left panel, under Raise.
If you don't see it there, you can click ALL CAMPAIGNS to get the full list.
Click on the SHARING tab and find then navigate to the first section, General.
Under Custom Campaign Link, remove the current slug and type your desired slug.
Click SAVE!
⛔️ Warning: Changing a URL will break any previous links, including Team Member invite links. If you have already shared or posted a link to your campaign, please make sure to update the posts with the new links.
What is a slug?
The slug is the last part of a URL/Link. The slug refers to a specific page, while the domain refers to the website itself. In the below example, givebutter.com is the domain, and collect is the slug.
Currently, we only allow the editing of URL slugs, and you cannot customize the URL's domain. However, you are always welcome to add a campaign to your own website! If you're interested in custom domains or subdomains, feel free to upvote that feature on our community board!
