Would it be too much to ask bloggers, when posting on their own sites, to not use URL-shortening services like TinyURL or Bit.ly? (That's what that anchor tag stuff is about; to make the link nice and short like so, you see?)
I absolutely guarantee you'll also increase your click-through rate, because a lot of people won't click on an obscured URL. Who knows whether that link goes to some Russian virus farm or to (the late and unlamented) goatse.cx?
What, people actually do that on blogs? URL shortening is usually useful in Twitter (which sucks and I use it for writing crap) and in papers..
ReplyDeleteSo very true.
