Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions regarding URL shortening, HTTP redirection, and link analytics.

Do shortened links expire?

No. Shortened links are stored permanently in our database and will remain active indefinitely as long as the service is running.

Why do you use HTTP 307 Temporary Redirect?

HTTP 307 ensures that web browsers request our server on each click, which guarantees accurate real-time analytics while forwarding the user instantly without cache delays.
