FAQ answer from Mighty Scripts.

Mighty URL Shortener Updated 16 October 2026

Mighty URL Shortener is a self-hosted PHP script. It is not a hosted service and not a subscription. You buy a license, download the script from your account, and install it on your own hosting or server. It runs on your own domain.

You need:

  • Hosting or a server that meets the requirements
  • A domain name
  • A database
  • An email account for sending emails (SMTP)
  • The ability to run one cron job every minute. A cron job is a task that your server runs on a schedule.

It works on shared, VPS, and dedicated hosting that meets the Mighty URL Shortener hosting and system requirements.
