Welcome to zerourl.com!
Are you sick of posting URLs in emails only to have it
break when sent causing the recipient to have to cut and paste it back
together? Then you've come to the right place. By entering in a URL in the
text field below, we will create a Redirect URL that will not break in
email postings and never expires.
An example
Turn this URL:
http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?ovi=1&mqma
p.x=300&mqmap.y=75&mapdata=%252bKZmeiIh6N%252bI

this Short URL:
http://zerourl.com/6 Which one would you rather
cut and paste into your browser? That's the power of zerourl.com!
Add zerourl.com to your browser's toolbar
Click and drag the following link to your links toolbar.
zerourl.com! Once
this is on your toolbar, you'll be able to make a zerourl.com at the click of
a button. By clicking on the toolbar button, a zerourl.com will be created for
the page you are currently at.
This is compatible with most web browsers and platforms as long as your
bookmarks or favorites allow javascript. The links toolbar may not be
visible in all setups and in most browsers, you can enable it in the
View->Toolbars menu of your web browser. You can also put it in your
bookmarks instead of the links toolbar. 
For users of up to date IE browsers, the clicking and dragging
of links that contain javascript is no longer supported. To add this to
your IE links toolbar, click the link with your right mouse button
and select "Add to Favorites..." from the menu. Click OK if a security
warning alert pops-up (this shows up since the link contains javscript).
If a list of folders is not shown, click the
"Create in >>>" button (see image at right). Now select
the folder called "Links" and then click OK. You should now see the
zerourl.com on your links toolbar, if not, see the last paragraph above.
Redirection to any page in your site!
With zerourl.com, you can also make a smaller URL that will work for any
page on your site. Let's say that you have a website with the homepage
that is at:
http://www.my-internet-isp.com/~myusername Entering
that URL into zerourl.com will create a URL like
http://zerourl.com/3 With this you can then
redirect someone to anywhere within your site by appending a slash and the
pages filename to it. So if you have a page at
http://www.my-internet-isp.com/~myusername/my-links-page.html, you can use
the URL http://zerourl.com/3/my-links-page.html and going to this URL will
forward the visitor to the page in your website.
Hide your affiliate URLs
Are you posting something that you don't want people to know what the
URL is because it might give away that it's an affiliate link. Then you
can enter a URL into zerourl.com, and your affiliate link will be hidden from
the visitor, only the zerourl.com/ address and the ending address will be
visible to your visitors.
