Ask HN: Anyone interested in hosted url shortener for custom domain?
2 points by hackerhasid 3280 days ago
I wanted a url shortener for my custom domain but surprisingly couldn't find a great hosted option that wasn't phenomenally expensive. So I built one using AWS (S3 serves the redirects). Easy to use and no maintenance required.

Anyone interested? (if so I'll put it on a domain and make it publicly available)

For what it's worth, any domain registered at GoDaddy can be used free as a URL shortener: https://shortener.godaddy.com/
they have an arbitrary (and low) max on shortened urls. i believe it's 5000 :-(
