Shorten a link once and for all
To shorten a link, paste the long URL into a URL shortener: you get a short address such as tnlnk.fr/autumn, which redirects to the original page. With TinyLink an account is all it takes: the free plan covers 15 short links, and the destination can be changed after the link has gone out, without the short address changing.
Free, no credit card.
Shorten your first link
- Copy the address you want to share: a product page, a form, an article, a PDF. Check that it already opens in a browser, because a shortener redirects an address, it does not fix one.
- Create a free account, then paste that address into + New link. The short address is created on tnlnk.fr straight away, ending in a random string, with a button to copy it.
- Replace that ending with a readable word through Customise, before anything goes out: tnlnk.fr/autumn can be said out loud, fits on a poster and is remembered.
The address stays, the destination moves
This is what separates a short link from a plain copy and paste. The address goes onto a poster, a flyer, a package, a printed QR code. Six months later the landing page moves or the campaign changes: you edit the destination in TinyLink, and everything already handed out keeps working. Nothing to reprint, and no dead links for your readers.
What a short link tells you
Every click is counted before the redirect: day, country, city, device, browser, origin. Nothing to install on the destination page, since the count happens on the way through. The link’s statistics say which material worked, the poster or the email, and when. Once links run into the dozens, tags sort them by campaign, and a CSV import creates several at once, with a line-by-line report.

Frequently asked questions
Do shortened links expire?
No. A link stays active until you delete it, and clicks keep being counted. Only the QR code attached to it is temporary on the free plan: it stops redirecting seven days after the link was created.
Can I choose the end of the address?
Yes, if the word is free: tnlnk.fr/your-word. Pick it before you distribute anything. Changing that address later breaks existing shares and printed QR codes, whereas changing the destination breaks nothing.
Do I need an account to shorten a link?
Yes. Without one, nobody could reopen the link to change its destination or read back its clicks, which is the point of a short link. Signing up is free, and the free plan has no time limit.
Can several people manage the links?
Yes. Links belong to a workspace, and every member gets a role that sets what they can see and edit. One member creates the links, another only reads the numbers.
