The use of URL shorteners often poses the problem that the actual target URL is obscured, thereby increasing the risk of being redirected to a harmful website. In addition to this security risk, valuable SEO information that could be derived from the original URL is also missed. Therefore, I need a method that not only safely reveals the real target URL, but also provides additional information such as the title, description, and associated keywords of the website. It should ideally support all common URL shorteners such as bit.ly, goo.gl, and tinyurl.com. Ultimately, a transparent and direct URL can significantly contribute to understanding the content and context of a website and thus significantly support my SEO strategy.
