About 0.mk

0.mk was the first and most popular URL shortening service in Macedonia. We're rebuilding it for the modern web - faster, smarter, and open to the world.

The story

0.mk started years ago as a simple idea: give Macedonian internet users the shortest possible URLs using the country's own .mk domain. It grew to become the go-to link shortener in the country, handling millions of links and over a billion redirects.

The original service served its purpose, but the web has evolved. Link shortening today isn't just about saving characters - it's about analytics, trust, branding, and developer experience. So we rebuilt 0.mk from scratch with a modern architecture designed for speed and scale.

How it works

When you shorten a URL, the link is stored in our database and instantly pushed to Cloudflare's global edge network - over 300 data centers worldwide. When someone clicks your link, the redirect happens at the nearest edge node in under 50 milliseconds. No round-trips to our server.

Click analytics are collected at the edge and aggregated - we track clicks by country, referrer, device, browser, and operating system without ever storing individual visitor IP addresses. Privacy by design.

Built for developers

Every feature in the dashboard is accessible through our REST API. Authenticate with a bearer token, create links, read analytics, manage tags and domains - all programmatically. Check our API documentation to get started.

Built for teams

Workspaces let you organize links by project or team. Invite members, assign roles, tag links for campaigns, and export data when you need it. Custom domains let you shorten links under your own brand.

The tech

  • TypeScript end-to-end
  • Cloudflare Workers for sub-50ms edge redirects
  • Cloudflare KV for globally distributed link cache
  • Next.js on Vercel for the dashboard and API
  • PostgreSQL with Prisma ORM
  • Passwordless magic-link authentication
  • Zod validation on every API input

Who we are

0.mk is built and maintained by NoCode, Inc. We care about building reliable, well-engineered tools that respect user privacy and just work.
