Shorten Google Maps Locations

Google Maps URLs are some of the longest on the web. A typical directions link or place URL can exceed 300 characters, filled with coordinates, place IDs, and viewport parameters. Sharing these in text messages, emails, or social media posts is a nightmare — they break across lines, look like spam, and scare people away from clicking. y.hn condenses any Google Maps URL into a tidy link under 10 characters.

For businesses, real estate agents, event organizers, and travel companies, short Google Maps links are essential. Put a clean y.hn/office link on your business card, include y.hn/venue in event invitations, or add y.hn/directions to your email signature. Each link comes with click tracking so you know how many people looked up your location and when, giving you a proxy for foot traffic intent.

y.hn supports all Google Maps URL formats: place links, direction links, Street View URLs, and shared location pins. The redirect preserves all parameters, so the recipient sees the exact map view, zoom level, or route you intended. Generate a QR code for any location link to display on signage, printed maps, or window stickers.
