URL shorteners slow down the web
Posted on March 17, 2010 | Category: Informational, Web Sites
It seems like WatchMouse took a look at URL shorteners and their impact on getting you to the site you are visiting. The worst performing shortener is that really long red line. Yup, Facebook is the slowest of all shorteners tested, with Google being the quickest at redirection.
The next URL shortener criteria was availability or uptime. The two winners in total uptime are goo.gl and twt.tl. Nice job!
