URL shorteningURL shortening is a technique on the World Wide Web in which a Uniform Resource Loor (URL) may be made substantially shorter in length and still direct to the required page.

For example, the URL "http://prophet.blogspot.in/2014/04/how-to-block-phone--from-calling.html" can be shortened to "http://goo.gl/HByOpI".
