Google URL Shorter

Google URL Shorter

Shorter URL introducing by Google website http://goo.gl/ has added another service to its swiftly increasing range. With its new goo.gl site, Google joins the likes of bit.ly and tinyurl.com in enabling internet users to shorten long web addresses into more manageable, bite-size links.

The demand for link shortening services has increased very much in recent years, as users of social networks such as Twitter and Facebook look to realize ways of sharing links as quickly and in brief as possible.

Google’s URL shortening tool transforms long links into the much shorter http://goo.gl/, followed by a unique mixture made up of four letters as well as numbers.



Even as the popularity of goo.gl remains to be seen, the service could have a constructive effect on search engine optimisation. Social networking and SEO are becoming more and more intertwined, so any service that enables quicker and easier link sharing via social platforms is likely to benefit SEO campaigns.


Google website Goo.gl currently consists of just a text box and a click button marked ‘Shorten’.Google software engineer Muthu Muthusrinivasan stated that the beauty of the service lies in its very simplicity.He also added that Google didnt plan to overload goo.gl with features, but that they wanted  it to be the stablest, most protected, and quickest URL shortner on the web.
