What is the best url shortener?

Advertise on BHW
You could use bit.ly -- or you can get your own domain and hosting and create subdomains that you can redirect to your affiliate links.
 
I use simplyurl for my wordpress. There is also yourls.org for your own site. It has many features like bitly. Goo.gl is not good for aff links. Also using ******, you get leaks to your own affiliate links.
 
yourls - on your own server, so you don't have to deal with temperamental third party sites.. ;)
 
make your own private url shortners, host them yourself.

Killer tip 1. using yourl script you can modify the target at a later date!
Killer tip 2. you can have multiple links via diferent domains you own and spin the anchor url.
Killer tip 3. be sure to cloak the hosting.

Oh and if you are lazy, you could you the skimlinks plugin.....
 
Google URL shortner is the very best site which can be used for URL shortening
 
bit.ly
vzturl
alturl
x.nu
link-shrink
linkshrink
urlm.in
shrunklink
ow.ly

this should get you started...you dont want to use google's because everyone's heard of it, just like tiny url....if you are using these to post on Craigslist for example...Tinyurl is already blacklisted where as the above i used today to post.....I have a bunch of others but I'm not allowed to post links in these forums

TinyUrl is the best, i used other but they blocked some sites like (adfly, adfocus, adult sites) but TinyUrl not. It will redirect instantly to your site. :)
