March 1, 2023 Qr Code Generator

I recently revamped and improved T.LY's Qr Code Generator. I plan to build additional tools all around links and marketing. My next step is to see if I can improve the page rank for the QR Code tool to see if I can use SEO to drive additional traffic to T.LY.

April 2022 Over 400k Active Users

URL Shortener Extension for Chrome
officially passed 400,000 active users. Pretty excited about this milestone. It took close to a year to go from 300k to 400k. I don't know when Chrome stopped showing the exact public numbers on the extension page but seeing the number update to 400k was a great accomplishment. Now on to 1 million :)

November 15, 2021 8 Million Short URLs

T.LY has over 8 million short URLs and has tracked over 80 million clicks. I have been experimenting with limited-time discounts and a custom email drip after signup. So far this has led to several signups. The growth of the paid version has been slow but steady.

September 27, 2021 Smart URLs

Smart URLs redirect users to different destinations based on their device or browser. After entering a default URL, users are able to specify to which device or browser-specific URLs they want to direct their traffic. This allows you to share one URL to target multiple destinations. https://blog.t.ly/introducing-smart-urls/

About

I wanted a quick way to create short URLs. TLY is a bit shorter than the competitors and when it comes to link shorteners, you want them to be short!
