Shortening links

Is there a way to shorten Etsy links so that they are easy to post in a listing but still remain seen as Etsy links, which means still retain the Etsy.com feature. I used to use Bitly but it doesn't work anymore.

I used this one a while ago: http://goo.gl/
And this worked perfect.

Re: Shortening links

Thanks, the link works but since etsy.com doesn't appear in it anymore, it's not active when I put it in a listing so you've got to cut and paste to follow it and that's what I'm trying to get around.

Re: Shortening links

You're not supposed to put "outside" links in listings, btw. For shortening links, you could try bit.ly , or tinyurl.com . There are others, too. :)

Re: Shortening links

I'm not trying to put outside links, just links that point back to my shop. For example I want to link to all the beads in the "Sea Rocks" or the "Cocoon" series but that produces links that are 2 lines long. A while ago I was able to shorten them with bitly in a way where they kept the etsy.com part so that they are recognized as active : http://etsy.me/wHrKW5 instead of http://www.etsy.com/shop/AnneLondezGlass/search?search_query=sea+rocks&order=date_desc&view_type=gal... but now bitly doesn't do that anymore so I'm stuck with the long links.
