Amazing Tools That Let You Shorten Your Google Plus Profile URLs

Posted: 22 Aug 2011 04:06 AM PDT

Facebook's profile URLs are very cool as most of them usually are like Facebook.com/username. This fact makes it very easy to remember and the person who wants to visit your profile can type in the URL in their browser's address bar. But unfortunately, there is nothing like this in Google+.

It is quite logical to understand that why Google+ doesn't have URLs like that. That is because Google+ users join the network from their Gmail email address and so their Google+ username would show their Gmail address -- which is something many people don't want. So profile ID numbers are given in Google+. But now, thanks to all the cool tools out there, making a shortened URL for your Google+ profile by creating a nickname for yourself is possible!

So here are 5 amazing apps which you can use to create a Google+ nickname:


It is a free web app by using which creating a Google+ nickname is possible. You are given a shortened URL that redirects to your original Google+ profile, based on your nickname. So this shortened URL looks like a subdomain of GplusTo with your nickname added.


This one is quite like GplusTo. You type in a nickname and your Google+ profile URL. Then it generates a shortened URL for your Google+ profile, which is a subdomain of ToplUs.


It is also a web tool that provides you with a shortened URL for your Google+ account. It also requires your Google+ profile ID and a nickname and then generates a shortened URL that redirects to your Google+ profile.


It is yet another free web app that asks for your Google+ ID and a nickname and creates a subdomain that redirects to your Google+ profile. Having such a shortened URL makes it very easy for you to head over to your Google+ profile straight.


DirplUs is also a tool that creates a shortened URL of your Google+ profile. It gives you a a shortened URL that redirects to your Google+ profile page. You have to give the site your Google+ ID and desired nickname in order to obtain the shortened URL.
