Url Shortener That Allow Edit Later

Does any Warrior know any url shortener service that allows you to edit the destination url later. Say, your destination url is http://destination.com and you shorten it to become eg http://abc.com/xyz.

Then later, I want to edit http://destination.com to http://newone.com but using the same shorten url http://abc.com/xyz.

Meaning that http://abc.com/xyz will now redirect to http://newone.com instead of http://destination.com.

Thanks and Merry Christmas Warriors!

    You could register your own short domain and use php redirects to control your own redirects. What is great about this is that YOU have full control of the redirects.

    Any affiliate redirection script will do this. You can find them on a lot of PLR and "grab bag" sites, or just do a search. Here's a free one:

    I have one I wrote myself that I use as my 404 error handler. If you try to go to a page that doesn't exist on my server, the 404 script searches my database for a shortcode and 307 redirects if it finds one. I can change the shortcode or its destination anytime I want.

    This makes things really easy sometimes. If I have a product on my server which gets moved to its own domain, I just copy the files and delete the folder. Then I add a shortcode for the folder name and point it at the new domain. Any affiliate or partner promoting the old path, like say if it's in their autoresponder sequence, automatically gets click-thrus tossed onto the new server.
