I'm building URL shortener, pls criticize me mercilessly
I'm building another URL shortener. I know there are plenty of them, but I believe I can create another one and still make money. Instead of just saying, "it's already done," can you share features that current URL shorteners don't provide?
Make your URL shortener stand out with features like customizable emoji links, smart redirections (based on location or time), anti-spam detection, mini landing pages for notes or ads, and dynamic QR codes. Add real-time stats and team accounts for businesses, plus options to monetize through non-intrusive ads. Keep it simple but packed with perks! Hope it helps
Thank you for your comment; it is very helpful to me. Here are some roadmap items that overlap with your suggestions:
These are just the tip of the iceberg. I want to build a more extensive tool focused on link building, not just shortening links.
