Be very picky about your url shortener! Some are bad for your business
Today I stumbled on an url shortener service that sounds good but is actually a very bad thing!
The message was that you could earn money by using their url shortener service for free.
I decided to check this service out; I am talking about adf.ly
Click on this link to Google and see what happens!
You are not on Google but on some other site that is shown first before your site or business opportunity!
Many people will think the wrong site was linked and will close the site immediately. Or they try another link on your site shortened with this service.
They will be irritated an annoyed and may never visit your site again.
Basically your are promoting everybody else but YOU. You are loosing possible prospects for a few dollars.
Maybe there are more url shorteners that work this way, i don't know. So if you want to use an url shortener try it out for yourself first with some links to see what happens.
There are also services that show an ad at the top or the bottom. Here are issues to. FE. viralurl does not show in all browsers. And they may distract the visitor from your own opportunity. However you also get visitors for free. personally I use them in tweets mostly. Not in Traffic Exchanges.
Below my stats. I use these links in Twitter Tweets a lot.
