I Built an Ad-Free, Usage-Based URL Shortener to Solve My Own Frustration

Hey Indie Hackers,

I recently grew frustrated with traditional URL shorteners—overpriced subscriptions, intrusive ads, and unnecessarily complex features. To solve this, I built kliqly.link, a minimalist and ad-free URL shortener with transparent, usage-based pricing.

Here’s the quick rundown:

Ad-Free: No distractions or intrusive ads.

Pay-As-You-Go: Only pay for what you actually use (no bloated monthly fees).

Minimalist: Clean UI, straightforward analytics, easy link management.

Community-Driven: Our roadmap is completely public; users can suggest features and vote on future developments (https://kliqlylink.canny.io/).

Would love for you all to try it out and share feedback. What pain points have you experienced with your current link shorteners?

Thanks!
