Coming from StartAFire or Snip.ly? Here are instructions that will help you to set up your Rite.ly Link Ads (CTAs) in no time. Use Rite.ly on a no-credit-card free trial and then, when you pay, use Rite.ly completely white-label, with your logo, and your own custom domain.
What are the main differences between Start A Fire, Sniply and Rite.ly?
Rite.ly wins on affordability, white-labelling (replace Rite.lt with your domain, your logo and logo link in ads), and video ads, too, which nothing else offers.
Start A Fire offered only one type and no custom domain. With Rite.ly, not only do you get our exclusive video ads, but also, you replace our branding with your own at the lowest paid tier, and get unlimited ads and brands.

Note that for links shortened with Rite.ly, Facebook and LinkedIn will not accept them. This is beyond our control; FB and LinkedIn are now blocking all short links created of full URLs. So, if using RiteForge, RiteBoost for scheduling posts, we suggest that you do not shorten links for posts you schedule to LinkedIn or Facebook. If just using Rite.ly, even with custom subdomain, please use them in Tweets, emails, IG comments - and everywhere else - just not in FB or LinkedIn.
