Shortening Your URL with X.CO

Date Submitted: 7-29-2011

When it comes to URL shorteners, shorter is always best. That's what makes X.CO so perfect — it's one of the shortest, publicly accessible shortening applications around. There's no sign up required to use it.

Go ahead, just copy and paste a long URL into the shortening box, then use the link we provide in your Twitter or Facebook posts, comments, emails, blog posts — wherever you like. Your X.CO link never expires.

To Shorten Your URL

  1. Go to X.CO.
  2. Enter the URL you would like to shorten.
  3. Click Shorten.

Your shortened URL displays in the Short Link field. X.CO also generates a QR code you can embed on websites and marketing materials. For more information, see What is a QR code?
