NameSilo

NameSilo Technologies Corp. is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, NameSilo LLC, has acquired 100% of ShortURL.at, one of the most highly ranked platforms in the global link shortening space.

With over 5.8 million active domains under management, NameSilo continues to execute on its strategy of acquiring and integrating complementary internet infrastructure assets. ShortURL.at is a well-established, high-traffic utility with exceptional SEO performance and strong organic user growth.

“This acquisition aligns perfectly with our long-term product roadmap,” said Kristaps Ronka, CEO of NameSilo. “It allows us to pair a popular consumer tool with our backend expertise in domain management, while creating new monetization pathways through branded short links and enterprise-grade customization.”

As part of the integration, NameSilo will bring its domain and DNS infrastructure to ShortURL, enabling custom short links on user-owned or NameSilo-managed domains. This functionality is already in development, with a new branded link platform scheduled for release within the next two weeks.

The acquisition supports NameSilo’s commitment to expanding recurring revenue channels and enhancing its product ecosystem across domains, hosting, and digital identity services.
