You can attempt this with my Bitly link of.
bit.ly/ 2ZZnuP2 which will take you to the registration page for my Practical Ed Tech Newsletter (.
https://practicaledtech.com/weekly-newsletter/). If you try the same link however include “+” to the end of it so it checks out like this.
bit.ly/ 2ZZnuP2+ you will go to the Bitly page where I shortened my initial URL.

Bitly is a hassle-free tool for developing brief URLs to share in place of long URLs. Ive utilized it for several years to create tailored URLs that are easy for my trainees to type. Sadly, some people utilize Bitly to attempt to mask URLs to try to get you to click on wicked links. Luckily, there is an easy way to see where a Bitly link will take you without needing to really click the link..
The technique is to just add a “+” to the end of any Bitly URL. When you include the “+” the URL will reroute to Bitly rather of to whatever the initial URL was. That will then show you the Bitly page on which the reduced URL is hosted and will show you what the original link was..

Ive produced a couple of brief video demonstrations of how this trick works. This is the Instagram video that I made about it. This is the YouTube video that I made about it.
