Choosing a URL Shortening Service

In a world where communication needs to fit into the confines of a text message or a tweet, it can be important to keep things as short as possible. This is why most of us have employed the use of a URL shortening service. I believe tinyurl was the first service I encountered and that was probably 5 or 6 years ago. Now, there are numerous options for URL shortening services and just as many criteria to consider when choosing between them.

Search Engine Land published this detailed look at each of the most popular services and how to make a choice that will work best for you.
