Guide

What is a URL shortener?

A URL shortener turns a long web address into a short link that sends visitors to the original page. Long links full of tracking codes and random characters are hard to read, type and trust. A short link is clean, easy to remember and looks better in messages, bios and print.

  1. Paste your long link into the box above.

  3. Click Shorten link.
  4. Copy the short link, share it on WhatsApp, or download its QR code.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is this URL shortener free?

Yes. You can create short links and QR codes for free, with no signup.

Can I choose my own short link name?

Yes. Add an alias of 5 to 32 letters, numbers, dashes or underscores, for example linksforeveryone.com/r/my-shop. If the alias is taken, pick another one.

Do short links expire?

Can I edit where a short link goes?

Not at the moment. Each short link always points to the address you entered. To change the destination, create a new short link.

What links are not allowed?

Links to phishing, malware, scams or illegal content, links from other URL shorteners, and links to private network addresses are not allowed.
