Hi, Trying to find out if it is possible to change a Mailchimp newsletter subscription URL to something shorter, user-friendly, rather than the really long, unwieldy one that gets one to our newsletter signup page? Thanks for any advice.
Was wanting something short that tells what it is. newsletter.JoeBlow.com, whatever. The bitly would be a second, but lesser option, but thank you.
Maybe a redirect with your server company or even webflow? I’m not sure if that would work, but you should give it a try
Hi @hyphenate - Welcome to the forums.
You can embed a mailchimp signup form anywhere on a Webflow page / site. You can also add a Webflow form that pushes the subscribe info directly to mailchimp.
I suggest you review a these two university pages at Webflow.
And this one at Mailchimp.
Let us know if this addresses your use case.
Thanks, I will check these out. We have the newsletter signup on the site. I just want to add an easy URL to flyers, etc. Right now the URL from that signup page is a mile long.
You should be able to setup a redirect on your domain from www.yoursite.com/this-is-a-really-long-link-that-won’t-look-good-printed to the newsletter.yoursite.com. The process differs depending on the registrar but I can’t imagine it needing to involve anything on Webflow’s end.
Where’d you buy the domain from?

Hi, That’s exactly what I am looking at. Trying to figure out now if a webmaster friend can set it up from outside the site and just do a redirect, or if I have to do it from within the hosting site. Not wanting to buy a new domain but figure it can be counted as a sub-domain, which I see I am allotted a good number. Thanks.
