What does it take to successfully run a URL shortener service [on hold]
- by MxyL
What are the costs (technology wise) for running a URL shortener service such as bit.ly or anonym.to?
For example, if I decided to use an inexpensive shared hosting with "unlimited" bandwidth, would that be feasible? Or would I need a dedicated hosting?
I found this question: I want to run a URL shortener for my own usage, what do I need to do?, which makes it easy to set it up, but I'm not too clear what kind of things I need to consider.
