Shorten Links Free

Although they are correct and safe, long URLs are difficult to read, remember and share. If you ever found yourself thinking that a certain link is ridiculously long, then you should consider using various tools to shorten it.

Shorten Links Free is an extension for Chrome that allows you to convert lengthy web addresses into short, manageable links, making them easier to remember, and distribute.

Since this is an add-on for Chrome, it means that it’s installed in the typical manner. All I suggest you do before starting is going through the Settings and selecting the options that best work for you.

For starters, you need to decide whether you want to include the QR code or remove it altogether, as it occupies a big area of the extension’s GUI. It is wise to keep it and include it, if you are commonly sharing to mobile platforms frequently.

Other Settings that you need to mark/uncheck include whether you want to create the short links instantly and the type of shortener. Additional, from the main window, you can activate the auto-copy feature, which can be great if you need to share multiple URLs. The app also includes a feature that creates short links for all the currently active tabs of Chrome.

Shorten Links Free is a straightforward extension that permits you to efficiently shorten various links that you plan on sharing with others.

Then again, please note that even though convenient, some users might be reluctant to clicking them, especially if they don’t recognize the main web address. Make sure to inform the recipients that you used a tool to shorten the link, especially if you plan to use the tool for business purposes on social media.
