Payout Rates

Payout rates for URL shorteners are usually mainly based on Unique Visitors, Visitor’s Location, Ad-Blockers, Advertiser Specs/Orders and some other factors. Each URL shortener may handle these factors/policies differently which means your earnings could vary greatly from one URL shortening service to another. As a general rule-of-thumb, you should expect to earn around $0.60 – $2.00 per 1000 views for most URL shorteners. But it is very possible to earn hundreds of dollars from URL shorteners with enough work and effort.

Payment Methods

1. PayPal (Minimum: $5.00)

2. WebMoney (Minimum: $5.00)

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Website looks nice and sign up was a breeze.
• Shortened link worked perfectly, no pop-ups and didn’t have to disable ad-block to proceed, and I was still paid.
• Stats are updated quite frequently- if not in real time.

Cons:

• Severe lack of customization/organization options.
• Had to log into uskip with Firefox in order to shrink my link. I’m sure it’s because I haven’t updated something (flash i’m looking at you), but it was an inconvenience.
• Website uses the same/similar template and design that other shorteners like shink.in/fas.li use. I am honestly baffled by this.

Conclusion

I can overlook the fact that this website feels like a clone of some of the other websites I’ve reviewed for the simple fact that everything worked without trying to open pop-ups or get me to disable Ad-block. The rates aren’t the best and you won’t earn from multiple views from the same visitor, but uskip.me is still an acceptable choice for a URL shortener. If the majority of your traffic is from kuwait, uskip.me might be the shortener for you.

Getting Started

4. (Optional) Shrink your uskip.me link with another URL shortener such as Bit.ly to hide that your link is a uskip.me link – increasing the amount of clicks you’ll receive.
