Most URL shorteners send your traffic through someone else's servers or bloat your database. URLnip does neither. Lives inside WordPress. Single JSON file. Clean short links under your own domain. Free: create, edit, delete, click tracking, CSV export, live search, bulk delete, one-click copy. PRO adds: bulk import and counter resets. No accounts. No API keys. No monthly fees.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built URLnip because every URL shortener I tried had at least one
of these problems:
❌ Your links live on someone else's servers (bye, bit.ly)
❌ Installs three database tables for what's basically a lookup table
❌ Requires an account / subscription just to shorten a link
❌ Overkill complexity for a simple redirect
URLnip does one thing: creates short links under your own domain,
stored in a plain JSON file inside your WordPress install. No
database overhead, no external services, full control over your data.
The free version covers everything most people actually need — create
links, track clicks, export, search, bulk delete. PRO adds bulk
import if you're migrating from another tool.
It costs $9/year. Because it should.
Happy to answer any questions — fire away. 🔥
