What Is the URL Shortener Tool?
The URL Shortener is a free online utility that helps you convert long URLs into short, manageable links using the TinyURL API, perfect for social media, SMS marketing, and clean campaign URLs.
The URL Shortener sends each valid URL to the TinyURL API, which generates a short redirect link.
