About some few weeks ago, my blog link was blocked on Facebook, I mean techyhands.com is not longer available on Facebook. It hurts I must say, and the most sad thing about it is that, I can still figure out why my blog link was blocked. All I could remember was me sharing my blog's link on a group, why? A person in the group was desperately in need of data and I helped out my sharing a link on a post I wrote some couple of few weeks ago on a working free browsing cheat of some sort, and boom! My URL got blocked. I understand Facebook are trying to protect their community from abuse, but at least they should let people do the job and not their so called bots do the job for them.

After my blog's link was blocked on Facebook, my traffic drastically reduced, and had to do something about it, and had to do it real quick! After much brainstorming, I was able to come up with a way to still post and share my blog's link on Facebook after it had been blocked.

What exactly did I come up with?

URL shortening site is the answer. With URL shortening site, you can post and share your blocked website or blog URL on Facebook (not just only on Facebook, you can use URL shortening site to post and share your link on any social media platform you were blocked.) There are tons of URL shortening website out there, Rebrandly, Bitly, Tiny.cc, LiveChat, soo.gd, just name it! But my favourite remains Bitly. Incase you didn't know, As of August 2018, Bitly has shortened over 37.5 billion URLs.

Using Bitly to shorten your URL shouldn't be an issue. This how it works; First log on to bit.ly, on -the-homepage paste the link in which you want to shorten, then after click on shorten, the link link you posted to be shortened will be shortened, just as you see in the below screenshot.

Now copy the generated Bitly link. You can post and share the link on Facebook, Twitter, or any where you want to share it, it still going to redirect them to your website or blog. Just as seen in the screenshot below
