List of 230 Free URL Shorteners Services
URL Shorteners are very useful service for bloggers and webmasters. These services can shorten long URLs into a small one so that you can easily share it with your friends. The shorten URL automatically redirects the user to the targeted page when it is accessed in a browser. Although user can view the long URL by using URL Expander Tools before visiting it.
You can also use these services to track the number of clicks to a link. All the URL shorteners provide statistics for the URLs so that you can track the performance of a page.
Internet Marketers use such services all the time in there online campaigns. For example in Email Marketing, Social Media sharing or general conversation. There are several reasons for using these services and the following are the top 5 most common reasons.

I love and have used all of these shorteners, but my favorite by far is shortenurl.net.
It’s completely free, easy to use, gives the user a bunch of data, you can create ‘bundles’ of links and combine them in one link, you can also create splash pages, overlays on any site, and much more.
I feel like it’s undervalued, people need to know more about this website. It’d be awesome if you could add it to the list.
Have a good one! 🙂

I found slink.be to be a very simple and useful service. It doesn’t have many features though, but it gets the job done.
Audrey
http://plu.sh/ is another URL shortener that is simple and easy to use with no sign up required
seanhoes

I were looking on the comments now. Hey, don’t say you use these urls because its obvious that you all are advertising. Per sample this “Tony” of http://onl.li url shortener use a 30 usd script. I know because I bought a copy also on codecanyon.net. he even not changed the theme!!
Emanuele
Can you add this new URL shortener to the list? Thanks
http://rdir.io/
Tony
I am using another new Url Shortener you need to add to the list. http://ONL.li Free and Easy
Dan
I am using http://nn.bb
It is not in your list and has a great feature: you can add a certain value to a landing page (premium access becomes very easy)
jd2020
Wonderful list of url short service, thanks for the article!
be.cm

ErikBT
Nice list! Always nice to have options. I use jo.gl. Very short urls and no ad gateways
Shubham Gupta
I use bit.ly and tinurl frequently, Thanks for providing me with the list. Now
I have got more options
Mani
There are so many URL shorteners websites available but i always prefer bit.ly .Thanks for this nice post.
Billy Mcnally
Try Lovebyt.es this is one which all my friends use and it’s great, has all the features you expect, bookmarklet, custom names, instant social publishing etc..
Can’t believe it’s not on the list!
Rajesh Naik
Thanks for sharing your URL.
Steve Hinesley
302url.com is another one.
Bhaveek Patel
I use tinyurl, and I have no issues with it. Anyway thanks for sharing the list of these 230. I never knew there would be so many service providers.
Gretish
Nice list. But i wonder why zxc9.com is not in this list. I am using this url shortener for over 1 year. They don’t have annoying ad’s or pop-up’s. They even provide API key for URL shortening and redirection service.
gbl08ma
I created my own URL shortener, currently (as I don’t have many links shorted) the short URLs generated are still smaller than bit.ly’s URLs.
Everyone is welcome to use it without any limits. Check it out here:
http://gooh.tk
Redirection is made without frames or countdowns, making it really faster. You can get statistics for any shorten URL by adding “+” to your short URL, example: if your short URL is “http://gooh.tk/1l” then to get statistics you browse to “http://gooh.tk/1l+”
Geoff Douglas
I use http://urls.co.za it is great to use it for Shortening Urls in South Africa.
Chand
Tinh@ Yes you can repost in your blog, but be sure to give us a Credit Link.

Tinh

Tinh
Wow, never think of such a great list. If you are ok, I can convert it into Vietnamese and repost in my other blog: http://blogviet.info with trackback. Thanks in advance
chandan
Thank you for the nice list, I am already using lu.ly url shortening service.
Chand
firm@ thanks for sharing your URL Shorteners.
Frim
232 actually:
Try http://shorturl.p4o.net (creates goo.gl – google is private with this, so it’s a generator of sorts)
and
http://twurls.co.cc (direct redirection no gateways)
vivek bandebuche

Destiny Islands
