Need to Shorten Your URL Without Changing Domains? Fix it Easy with ShortURL.com!

A CASE OF THE UGLIES

Do you have a web site with a long name that runs off the edge of your business card, is hard to remember, or otherwise sucks?

There is relief, and it has a name: ShortURL.com

PROBLEM & SOLUTION - ALL AT ONCE!

I am a hapless victim to at least one problem above, but luckily ran across ShortURL by accident. I had a look at their services and was wowed at their simple yet extremely practical solution. After checking a few other providers of similar services, I came back to the ShortURL folks.

One free service they offer gives you a much shorter web address (URL) to replace your otherwise longer (yucch!) URL. For example, my Associated Content web URL is:

www.associatedcontent.com/johnmelendez

While not particularly ugly, my long URL is a little hard to remember and definitely is not conducive to business card use. After giving it some thought, I came across the following solution, which points to the same content page shown above:

FEATURES

After looking at their premium account features, I signed up. While some of these buggers are not free, I thought the offered price was a bargain! Sign me up, Boss!.

I won't list all the features (go to their website), but my three faves are:

· Traffic reporting to your website.

· Your choice of sub-domains from the likes of 2ya.com, bigbig.com, etc.

· Your new URL's free submission to about 24 major search engines.

Check it out - and breathe easy under a lighter load that a short URL offers!
