By default, HubSpot's social tool will shorten links in your social post to a hubs.ly link. If you own a branded short domain on Bitly, you can connect your Bitly account to HubSpot.

After connecting your Bitly account, links in your social posts and tracking URLs created in the Tracking URL Builder be shortened using your branded short domain.
