I built ShortForward because I was looking for a simple link shortener. Checking out the leading provider in this area, I found that they require a monthly/yearly subscription, which I find ridiculous, especially given that the cheapest monthly plan costs 35$ per month. So I built ShortForward to provide a solution for myself, first and foremost.

ShortForward sounds like a super useful tool! Congrats on the launch. One thing though, how do you handle link tracking? Can I monitor clicks without any extra cost? Just curious before diving in.

Hi @harrisi253, thanks for the feedback! Link tracking is built-in by default, without any extra cost. There is currently a simple counter that displays visits per month (see last screenshot). If there is some traction with the tool, I will build a more elaborate analytics page.

This looks like a cool product! I love the minimal design, and the pay once and forget forever seems like a great alternative to what exists out there. Congrats on your launch!

Congrats @gisderdube this is amazing!!! Just tried it out and worked like a charm. I was always wondering why the monthly plans are quite costly with link shorteners, so a lifetime subscription obviously is amazing!!! Really nice design and UI, easy to understand and everything you could need in a URL Shortener. Good luck on your journey and excited to see where it will go 🎉🎉🎉

This sounds interesting @gisderdube! A one-time payment for lifetime access to short links could really shake up the link-shortening market. How do you plan to handle scalability and potential traffic spikes to ensure reliability? Also, what kind of analytics will users have access to?

@ezshine thanks for the response! So scalability shouldn't be too big of an issue. Firstly, the bandwidth required for simple shortlinks (i.e. redirects) is minimal. With AWS Lambda, there is also no problem with any scalability, as you can infinitely scale the handlers. Cost per request should be covered by the one-time payment, given Lambda request are really really cheap. Analytics is currently the amount of visits per month. You can see it here: https://share.zight.com/JruZjWJo If this gains some traction, I will build a more elaborate analytics page.
