If your current link-shortener doesn't meet your requirements — it is too expensive, it has few features, support is too slow — import your links to Short.io. You can do this easily and without losing the original URLs and associated data.
Note: If the URL shortener doesn't allow exporting links, contact Short.io support.
Straight to the video guide or follow the instruction:
1. Request your current URL shortener for exporting links.
2. Get a file with short links.
3. Go to your Short.io account.
