Few days back I was reading a corporate brochure and found they have provided some YouTube link of their services. But the problem was the links provided were very hard to remember and even very difficult to type in the web browser as it contains several characters in an unorganized manner and is very lengthy (as any YouTube video can be). Many times writing the link into the address bat got misspelled and results in link error.

This is when I though to write an article on how to make a lengthy URL into a very small and impressive keywords of our choice so that it would be very easy if any one have to print them for further use or want to remember them. This is where the Tinyurl.com comes into effect it solves the matter of shortening the long URL’s.  You only need to visit the website and write down or paste the web address want to shorten. The next moment you will be provided with a new url which always will prompt to your desired web address. From this site you can also create you own custom links also.

In the first input-box as shown above write down you web url which you want to make short and in the next box enter the desired keywords if any and click the button given and with in no minute you will be shown with the results.

There are also a lot more sites other than the Tinyurl.com serving the same purpose like is.gd, ping.fm, ur1.ca, bit.ly, snipurl.com, tweetburner.com, metamark.net, url.ie, x.se, 6url.com, yep.it, piurl.com etc…..
