How to Make a
Permanent QR Code
Getting a "permanent" QR code is simple, but there's a specific process you need to follow to ensure your code doesn't become a 404 dead end.

Choose Your Type: Static vs. Dynamic
If the URL will NEVER change (e.g., your personal portfolio home page), a Free Static QR code works forever for free.
BUT, if you think you might ever want to change the link, you MUST use a Dynamic QR code.
Avoid the "Trial" Subscription Tripwire
Be careful of sites that say "Create Free Dynamic QR Codes." Usually, they give you a 14-day trial. Once you've printed your product labels and the trial ends, your code deactivates until you sign up for a $15/month subscription.
Use a One-Time Lifetime Provider
To make a permanent dynamic QR code, use a provider like Lifetime QR Codes. You pay $29 once, and the redirection hosting is maintained forever. No bills, no expiring trials, just permanent digital ownership.
