Those who are bloggers, have an online store or simply spend much of their time searching for information on the web to later share it with their friends and followers on social networks, perhaps they will copy and paste the url of a specific website, something that can be annoying due to the extension that this address has.
Assuming that you have found an important news item on the web and it has a URL that is too long, when you copy and paste to that address in your social network, you will practically not have much space to write an additional message in the respective space. That is the reason why go to some kind of URL shortener, being "TO.tc" an excellent option that you can use for free although, with a few limitations of use.
Working methods with TO.tc in the web browser
TO.tc is considered as an online application or tool, which means that we will only need a personal computer with a good Internet browser; For this reason, you can well go to the official URL of its developer using Windows, Linux or Mac, being practically a multiplatform tool that we have come across. Here there are two modes of use and to which, we could define them as follows.
1. Basic use of TO.tc
This becomes the simplest part of everything, because once we enter into the official URL of your developer We will find a single space within its interface and where we will have to paste the address that belongs to a news item that we want to share with our friends. At the bottom there is a small window where you will have to solve the «Captcha», a system that is implemented by a large number of developers to avoid robots to their proposals.
You will immediately have the URL of the original news but, with a shortened address. You can copy this new address and later paste it into any message you want to share with your friends.
2. Advanced use of TO.tc
The URL that came to offer you this service may be something too conventional or basic, since all the characters that are part of the new address are not consistent nor do they have a common sense that some people may like. If you have a blog or a website (news or an online store) you may want customize to this url, something that you can do with its advanced options; For the example, we have taken one of the posts from «Vinagre Asesino», a link that we have copied into the space that is shown when you press the blue button (for advanced options).
You will see that a few additional options are presented, which will help you to have a shortened and personalized URL, something that in our case will keep identity with the name of the blog of «murderous vinegar» (see the first image at the top). In addition, you can put a password so that the information in the URL is encrypted and only those who have this data can use it. In addition to this, there is a field here that will help you write a small comment on what the news may deal with.
Most relevant features of TO.tc
Although these two modes of use with «TO.tc» can be used for free, there is also a paid version, something that is generally in the interest of companies or private institutions. Like many URL shorteners, TO.tc will also help you to be able to analyze a few statistical data, something that benefits those who try to know the traffic generated by their news in the different blogs. For this, this online tool relies on the Google Analytics service as mentioned by its developer. We could conclude by saying that the two functions (basic and advanced) that are offered for free by this online tool can help us immensely to be able to share news and important information with our friends without giving out the URL of the official domain to which belong (in the first instance).
