- Google’s URL shortening service goo.gl links will stop working on August 25th, 2025, resulting in 404 errors.
- Starting August 23rd, 2024, goo.gl links will show an interstitial page warning users of the upcoming shutdown.
- Google initially suggested migrating to Firebase Dynamic Links (FDL), which has also since been deprecated.
Interesting - how do we know it’s 36 billion entries? I just estimated that it hadn’t been used that much based on almost never seeing anyone actually use it…
I don’t know for sure, but that’s the scale I would expect (billions) and the number came from https://www.seroundtable.com/google-goo-gl-urls-to-404-37758.html
Ah, yes, I’m off by a lot then, thanks!
