Link2shrink
Because Sometimes Less is More
Share, shorten, organize, and track all your links in one place
Link2shrink’s primary function is in its name: to shorten your URLs.
Whether you’re employing URLs from third-party sites or Linktivity’s program links, their lengths can be cumbersome for memory or usage on social platforms such as Facebook or LinkedIn.

THE BEST LINK REDUCER
Works with external links
Whether it's an address from your website, a blog, or a product page in your shopping cart, URL's can be long, ugly, and hard to remember. And when it comes to social media services like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook, sometimes they're prohibited. Link2shrink solves that problem by automatically converting long links to short ones, regardless of the source.
Shortens Linktivity URL's in a single click
Some of our Linktivity services like Link2forms, Link2events, and Link2calendar can generate long alpha-numeric URL's that are so unfriendly to look at they cannot be displayed without a hyperlink. Now Link2shrink can quickly generate a short URL right from within each of these services that is short enough to use anywhere. You can also create human-friendly custom links.
Easy to remember URL's
URL's that are easy to remember are easier to use for your customers. And the more you use our Link2 domains, the less they have to remember.
