301tool is a URL Redirection Web Application that is designed to shorten long and unwieldy URLs into smaller, more meaningful URLs. This application provides similar functionality to online services such as TinyURL or shortURL, but can be used with and hosted on your own domain. Why Is This Better Than an Online Redirection Service? Honestly, it depends on what you're looking for. For the most part, services such as TinyURL are perfectly adequate for shortening URLs. Some benefits/features of 301tool: -Easy to install -Easy to configure and maintain -Features an access log showing 404 errors so they can be corrected -Add context for a long URL with a short keyword -Use your own domain name, rather than the domain name of a 3rd party redirection service -The ability to change the redirected URL after your short URL has been published--without needing to re-publish or re-distribute the existing short URL.
