A link shortener that does more than shorten

Tiny links, instantly

Long links become short, tidy ones in a single click — small enough for a tweet, an SMS, or a profile bio.

Memorable aliases

Skip the random characters. Make a little URL like shorteen.com/launch that people actually remember.

Click analytics, no login

Every tiny link has a private dashboard showing clicks over time, referrers, countries, and devices.

QR code for every link

Each short link comes with a downloadable QR code in PNG and SVG — ready for print and packaging.

Expiry & click limits

Make a link self-destruct on a date or after a set number of clicks — ideal for time-boxed promos.

Safe and private

Phishing and malware checks, SSRF protection, and rate limiting keep your tiny links clean. IPs are never stored raw.

Why make tiny links?

A tiny link is far more than a shorter string. It fits inside the tight character limits of social posts and text messages, looks clean in a bio or on a slide, and — unlike a raw link — tells you how many people actually clicked. With Shorteen, every little URL also carries a QR code and a private analytics dashboard.

Where tiny links shine

  • Profile bios on Instagram, TikTok, X, and LinkedIn.
  • SMS and WhatsApp messages where every character counts.
  • Printed materials and slides where a short link is easy to type.
  • Campaigns where you want per-channel click tracking.

How to make a short link

  • Paste your long link into the box above.
  • Optionally add a custom alias, expiry date, or click limit.
  • Press “Shorten” to get your tiny link and QR code.
  • Save the private dashboard link to track and edit it later.

Link shortener FAQ

What is a link shortener?+

A link shortener turns a long web link into a short one — a tiny link — that redirects to the original. Shorter links are easier to share, fit character limits, and let you track clicks.

Are tiny links free?+

Yes. Creating tiny links, analytics, QR codes, and the API are all free on Shorteen, with no ads and no signup.

Can I make a custom little URL?+

Yes. Open Advanced options and type a custom alias. If it's available, your tiny link becomes shorteen.com/your-words.

Do tiny links expire?+

Not by default — they last forever. You can optionally set an expiry date or a maximum click count when you create the link.
