Bit.ly Pro enters open beta — get a free, custom URL shortener!
All you have to do is sign up for a Bit.ly account and find a way to register the domain you want to use for your link shortener. Point your domain to the IP address Bit.ly gives you, and bada-bing-bada-boom, Bit.ly does the rest. You also get all of the analytics services you've come to expect from Bit.ly's non-pro package. The cutoff for a free URL shortener is 10,000 URLs shortened per day. If you're expecting more traffic than that, you'll have to contact Bit.ly for a commercial account.
