Why We Built TinyUR
Long links are awkward to share. They wrap across several lines in chat apps, eat most of a text message, get broken by email clients, and are almost impossible to read aloud or type from a poster. Many popular shorteners solve this but then hide basic features behind sign-up walls, expire free links, or show interstitial pages before the redirect.
TinyUR is our answer: paste a link, get a short one, and share it. No account is needed for basic shortening, and redirects go straight to the destination. Signing up adds a dashboard for your links, and paid plans add higher limits and API access for teams that create links at scale.
How It Works
When you shorten a URL, TinyUR stores it with a unique code, or the custom alias you choose. When someone opens the short link, our server looks up that code, adds one to its click count, and redirects the visitor to the original address. Frequently used links are served from a cache, so the redirect happens in milliseconds.
We count clicks without collecting personal profiles of the people who click. If you want to understand more of the mechanics, our article on how URL shorteners work goes into detail.
Link Safety and Abuse
Short links can be misused to hide phishing pages, malware, or spam. Our Terms of Service prohibit these uses, and we disable links that break them. Anyone can check where a short link leads before opening it with our free Unshorten tool.
