How To Shorten Long URLS

[Ann64]

Hi

I want to shorten some URLs, if possible, that Moz is reporting as too long.

They are all the same page but different categories - the page advertises jobs but the client requires various links to types of jobs on the menu. So the menu will have:

Job type 1
Job type 2
Job Type 3

I'm getting the links by going to the page, clicking a dropdown to filter the Job type, then copying the resulting URL from the address bar. Bu these are really long & cumbersome. I presume if I used a URL shortener, this would count as redirects and alsonot be good for SEO. Any thoughts?

Thanks
Ann

Hi Ann,

The length of the URL is quite arbitrary, in most cases it wouldn't be a thing that I would work on as it's something that has such a tiny impact. As long as you have nicely formatted URL structures (words, not too many parameters) you should be good in this area. Only if you have 100s of characters in there I would start worrying but in general I'd say ignore this one.
