Houfy Custom Link Guidelines

All Houfy hosts are eligible to create custom URLs. These custom URLs can be set up to direct people to your listing.

  • A Houfy host with multiple listings can set up one custom URL for each of their listings or choose a custom URL for the combined listings at Menu > My Listings
  • Each listing can only have one custom URL: Menu > My Listings > Edit

Each URL is valid only while the listing or account is active and may be forfeited if the listing or account is deactivated or removed from Houfy for any reason.

You don’t own your custom URL, and upon any violation of this policy or Houfy's terms, Houfy may end your use of it. Here are the policies to follow when creating a custom URL.

Custom URLs can't include:

Any variation of the word "Houfy" or any other content that violates our brand guidelines (TBA)

  • The word "verified"
  • The word "official" unless sanctioned by the person, place, or organization with whom the connection is asserted
  • Symbols or punctuation, except for hyphens
  • Fewer than five characters
  • Anything that violates Houfy's acceptable use policy

Custom URLs can't consist only of:

  • Generic property types (for example, Apartment, Cottage, Loft, Home)
  • Generic geographic locations (for example, Miami)
  • Numbers (all URLs must contain at least one letter)

Some examples of acceptable URLs:

  • /colorado-mountains-vacation-homes
  • /Alicias-homes
  • /private-apartment-in-breckenridge-town
