Creating Short URLs

If you need a short URL (Uniform Resource Locator) for a web page for publicity, you have some options:

go91ÁÔÆæ URL Shortener

The allows you to create short URLS for any page within the following domains:

  • ung.edu
  • ungathletics.com
  • unggive.org
  • ungalumni.org
  • ung.catalog.acalog.edu

You do have the ability to log back in to go91ÁÔÆæ after you have successfully created a custom URL and change the destination of the URL, so plan wisely and you will be able to use a custom URL for years to come.

go91ÁÔÆæ Random URLs

Without needing to log in, you can generate a random three character URL for any page on those domains. Simply paste the destination URL in the text box on the go91ÁÔÆæ site, select the 'Generate go91ÁÔÆæ' button, and you will be given the new short URL.

Random URL Example

 was randomly generated to redirect to this page:
/university-press/books/ilss-symposium-proceedings.php

go91ÁÔÆæ Custom URLs

Custom go.ung.edu short URLs are will be submitted for approval. This is to avoid conflicts and keep short-form URLs meaningful, relevant, and within the best interests of the university. Custom URLs should meet the following guidelines:

  • Should accurately and distinctly describe the destination of the link
  • Should be easy to remember, use, & share 
  • Should not cause confusion with the name of another university unit or service
  • Should not be so generic that others could request the same  (e.g. go.ung.edu/classes)
  • Should not be used for testing purposes - use a randomly generated URL for that
  • Should not contain any sublevels, i.e., go.ung.edu/grad/apply

Custom URL Example

was created and approved to redirect to this page:
http://ung.edu/mike-cottrell-college-of-business/pros.php
