About YOURLS

YOURLS stands for Your Own URL Shortener. It is a small set of PHP scripts that will allow you to run your own URL shortening service (a la TinyURL or Bitly). Running your own URL shortener is fun, geeky and useful: you own your data and don't depend on third-party services. It's also a great way to add branding to your short URLs, instead of using the same public URL shortener everyone uses. Terrific Plugin architecture and dozens of plugins to easily implement new features. Awesome stats: historical click reports, referrers tracking and visitors geo-location.

    "Link shortener"

    Posted 2020-07-21

    Pros: YOURLS is an easy to use PHP based script package to shorten the link and can be hosted on any server. I have complete control over the software and data privacy as it is hosted on own server nothing it's shared with any anyone.

    Cons: Overall it's a great tool but I I miss the the analytics, hope it will be introduced soon.

    Overall: YOURLS is very sleek link shortener. It can be installed on any server of your choice. It offers public and private mode to be used. The public mode allows anyone to create short link why the private mode allows only the authorised personnel to use the service of shortening links. YOURLS support proxies, so basically you can install it behind any firewall get an extra layer of security. It is a simple functioning URL shortener hosted on your own hosting which works effectively.
