Important Reasons to use a Unshort Tool
To use a Unshort Tool, UnShortener or DeShortener is always a good idea. Don't forget all the Pishing and Malware out there. The tools help you to find out the real target of any link and helps you not to end up on a Trojan site or any site which tries to install software you don't need and want.
Make a short URL long again
Find out the real URL of a Short Tiny URL
If you use Twitter, Facebook, Google or any other popular website, you find Short Url's everywhere. There are different names for this kind of links:
Short URL, Small URL, Tiny URL, but it's all the same.
If you see a link like this url.xy/123 you can't see the web site target, either you click on it, or you try to unshort such a short url. If you use a tool like real-url.org or unshort.me , it's easy and simple. The unshort tools find out the target address of a short link.
NOTE: You will only see the Final Target! What does this mean?
The used example is perfect to explain it.
(The links didn't work, this is only for example!)
(1) url.xy/123 links to ->
(2) url2.xy
this links to ->
(3) url3.xy
As you can see shows a unshort tool as target address (3), even if the first target was (2) and not (3).
Today internet marketers use tracking tools from different companies with long cryptical url's. The good news is that you can use a unshort tool also to find out the real target of such links.
