Create a custom Fake URL that will correspond to your Real URL. You can choose to have your visitors simply forwarded to the Real URL, or your Fake URL can masquerade as your Real URL. You can easily customize simple URLs for a little fun, some privacy, or if you want to simplify a really long, complex address into a short, but meaningful one for yourself or others. View some examples below
Expand a Fake URL into its Real URL
Just use x.yuarel.com as the domain of the Fake URL (instead of just yuarel.com).
On success the response will be just the Real URL. On failure, the response will be empty.
Create Fake Links Programmatically/Automatically
Just send a request to http://api.yuarel.com with the following POST vars set accordingly (after insuring all your POST values are properly URL-encoded):
u = (required) the full, real, working URL that your fake URL should point to
f = (optional) the fake request URI you'd like created; if blank, a random one will be generated
m = (optional) set to 1 to masquerade; leave blank to redirect people who open your fake URL
dry = (optional) set to run to test the results of your request without actually creating a URL
On success the response will be just the full fake URL created. On failure, the response will always start with: ERROR:
For example, this POST data u=http%3A%2F%2Fvideosift.com&f=videosift (note the proper URL-encoding) would create Fake URL http://yuarel.com/videosift that points to http://videosift.com
