Can I use my domain for my website and TinyURL at the same time?

Short answer: No.

A domain cannot simultaneously serve as both a website and a TinyURL-branded shortener. Here’s why:

• DNS limitation: When you set up a branded domain with TinyURL, its DNS entries must point exclusively to TinyURL servers. That means all traffic to that domain is handled by TinyURL—not your hosting provider.
• Service scope: TinyURL is designed for URL shortening and redirection. It does not support hosting websites or running web applications.
• Conflict risk: Mixing website paths with short links causes conflicts. For example:
  • example.com/about → should this show the "About" page for your website, or redirect as a TinyURL link? How to resolve such conflicts?

If you want to use your domain with TinyURL and still host a website, you have a few options:

OPTION 1:Use a subdomain for TinyURL

→ Example: Use a subdomain like links.example.com for shortening, while example.com hosts your website.

OPTION 2: Use a separate domain for TinyURL

→ Example: purchase example.org for link shortening and keep your main domain for your website.
