MicroURLA TinyURL alternative with editable links and click data on the free plan
On TinyURL’s free plan you get 30 links a month, you can’t change where a link goes once it’s out, and clicks aren’t counted. MicroURL’s free plan gives you 50 links a month that you can point somewhere new any time, and shows where your clicks come from.

When TinyURL is the better pick
If you want two years of click history, or no monthly limit on tracked clicks, TinyURL Pro gives you that for $11 a month ($9 a month billed yearly). And if your links already live on tinyurl.com and nobody needs to change them, there’s no reason to move.
MicroURL is worth it when you need to change where a link or printed QR code goes without paying first, want to see where your clicks come from on the free plan, or need more links a month: our Lite plan has 5,000 for $9.
What moves, and what doesn’t
Links on your own domain move cleanly. Point your branded domain at MicroURL and recreate the same short paths: everything you shared or printed keeps working.
Links on tinyurl.com itself stay with TinyURL. That domain belongs to them. New links go on your own domain or ours from now on, and you can bring your list of destinations over from a spreadsheet (CSV).
Early customers get the move done for them, free. Email us with how many links you have.
No lock-in, in writing
At least 90 days’ notice before we ever shut down, CSV export of your links and clicks at any time, and your domain stays yours. The full pledge is on our trust page.
