Link Creator

My simple link creator :

http://LinkR.us/

Create small URL out of long URL 4 use in IM, Blog , Twitter, MySpace, FaceBook, Friendster ETC.

Hide referrals.

Ex :
http://thelongestlistofthelongeststuffatthelongestdomainn ameatlonglast.com/wearejustdoingthistobestupidnowsincethiscangoonfor everandeverandeverbutitstilllookskindaneatinthebro wsereventhoughitsabigwasteoftimeandenergyandhasnor ealpointbutwehadtodoitanyways.html/
(That is 263 characters)

To

http://LinkR.us/a1A/

The problem with that is The Little Link Creator already uses 13 characters when other services like is.gd use 5.

Your is.gd shortened URL is Google[open in new window] (14 characters).
The original URL was Google[open in new window] (21 characters).

Your is.gd shortened URL is ABS-CBN.com :: Welcome Kapamilya![open in new window] (17 characters).
The original URL was ABS-CBN.com :: Welcome Kapamilya![open in new window] (22 characters).

The Little Link Creator is fixed with 13.

IMHO you should get rid of the www. to make it shorter...

@lraM: aha! I know that site! lol

[YJOB]

can you make it like the way .tk does?
that would surely give meaning to the link.

instead of www.maliit.net/a50 it would be better if like www.mysite.tk

lain man paminawn, naay maliit.net sa una, nya dili sad mailhan atong site kay indexing man ilang pagcreate sa link..

The destination URL doesn't matter. What matters is the number of letters of the link itself. That is the point of shortening URLs. Simply having www. in front and using .com instead of a two letter TLD are more letters that don't need to be there. This may not seem very important, but for sites like twitter that have a limited number of characters allowed ... it is key. Also, maliit.net is not fixed with 13, every unique URL has an identifier such as http://www.maliit.net/a8P. It works the same way as every other URL shortening service out there.

The unique identifier you mean kay ang /a8P? 3 Character ra jd ni sya boss.
