One of the oldest shorteners around, with no analytics until you pay and metered paid plans.
TinyURL is one of the oldest and most recognizable shorteners, and for quick throwaway links it still works. But it was built for a simpler era: its free plan offers no click analytics at all, no custom domains, and only an alias on tinyurl.com, while the $13 a month paid plan meters you to 250 links a month and charges separately, at $69 a month, for bulk operations. ReSlug gives you real-time geo and device analytics, a custom domain, UTM tracking, and a link-in-bio page on its free plan, and unlimited links on Pro for $6.60 a month. If you only need an occasional short link, TinyURL is fine. If you want to actually track and brand your links, ReSlug does far more for less.
