Creating a short URL
From the Home page, follow the short instructions below:
1. Input the Long URL: You provide the URL that you want to shorten by entering it in the "Your URL" field and then click the "Shred URL" button.
2. Shortening Process: The URL shortening service generates a unique, shorter URL that redirects to the original long URL.
3. Shortened URL: You receive the shortened version of the URL, which you can then share.
4. Redirection: When someone clicks on the shortened URL, they are automatically redirected to the original long URL. The URL is valid for one year.

Editing or Deleting short URLs
As of today, there is no way to edit or delete existing URLs, however it is a feature coming later in 2024. If there's an issue with your URL, just create a new short URL. There's no need to take action with a broken URL, all randomoized short URLs will be automatically deleted after 1 year. Also see Understanding URL Expiration.
Understanding URL Expiration
All randomoized short links generated have an expiration date of 1 year after their creation. After 1 year, the short URLs are automatically deleted. You'll need to create a new short URL after 1 year to continue using sssh.red.
