Url Shortening Redirect Creator Tool
January, 2013
| Want to run your own URL shortening service? Keep your links very short for tweets or other space-limited formats. This tool takes input of a destination URL and outputs a multi-protocol redirect HTML snippet. Save the output as an HTML page on your server. Anybody requesting this HTML page automatically gets directed to the destination page. |
input URL to create redirect page
The redirects created here provide a meta-refresh as well as a javascript implementation to cover over 99% of user agents. For the small remaining possible few clients for which neither of these work (it's possible to have support for javascript and meta refresh disabled), a plain link is provided and they need to manually click over.
