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 attempt the very same link but include “+” to the end of it so it checks out like this.
bit.ly/ 2ZZnuP2+ you will go to the Bitly page where I reduced my original URL.

Bitly is a hassle-free tool for creating brief URLs to share in place of long URLs. Ive utilized it for many years to develop tailored URLs that are easy for my trainees to type. Regrettably, some individuals use Bitly to try to mask URLs to try to get you to click nefarious links. Luckily, there is a simple method to see where a Bitly link will take you without having to in fact click on the link..
The technique is to merely add a “+” to the end of any Bitly URL. When you include the “+” the URL will redirect to Bitly instead of to whatever the original URL was. That will then reveal you the Bitly page on which the shortened URL is hosted and will reveal you what the original link was..

Ive created a number of short video presentations of how this technique works. This is the Instagram video that I made about it. This is the YouTube video that I made about it.
