The 9 Dollar URLnip

Own your short links — no bit.ly, no bloat, no BS.

What it does

Most URL shorteners send your traffic through someone else's servers or bloat your database. URLnip does neither. Lives inside WordPress. Single JSON file. Clean short links under your own domain. Free: create, edit, delete, click tracking, CSV export, live search, bulk delete, one-click copy. PRO adds: bulk import and counter resets. No accounts. No API keys. No monthly fees.

    With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
