Google+ is now gaining traction for more users to enter, but if you want to link to your Google+ profile, you’re stuck with a unique 21-character number to direct users to your profile. You can get away with asking people to call you if you have a unique name, but the rest of us need something better.
To enter Gplus.toA free short link generator for Google+ profiles turns your impossible-to-remember Google+ URL into something you can share in a conversation, put on a business card, or simply remember.
To get your personalized Google+ URL, open your Google+ profile and copy the strong numbers just after “Google.com/”. You should see something to the link below,
https://plus.google.com/100133648745019353513
Copy the 21 digit string of numbers you never hope to remember and go to Gplus.to. Here you can choose a Google+ nickname between 3 and 25 characters that will direct users to your Google+ Profile.
Instead of the inconsistent URL above, now Gplus.to/JoshSmith as my google+ url. It’s easy to remember and manageable enough to wear a business card if Google+ goes up. It’s also more convenient than giving my personal email address to anyone who wants to try to search for me on Google+.
Get a personalized Google+ URL with Gplus.to
Sure, you can create your own landing page or redirect, but for the average user, Gplus.to is the perfect solution for Google’s long profile pages. It wouldn’t surprise me if Google decided to offer easier URLs like Facebook did, but until then you can catch your alias on Gplus.to.
