# DoNotLink

See donotlink in action at [donotlink.it](https://donotlink.it)

## Description

Donotlink is a simple and fast url shortener that blocks search engines from following links and removes the referer.  

Linking to websites via donotlink will not improve the sites position in search engines.

## API

send a POST request to https://donotlink.it/api

```

POST /api

url=http://example.com

{

  "url": "http:\/\/example.com",

  "code": "Y5Yn",

  "donotlink": "https:\/\/donotlink.it\/Y5Yn"

}

```

## Installation - Apache

Donotlink requires a database (MySQL or MariaDB) and PHP 7.

### Apache

Create a database and set up the redirect table as specified in the **donotlink.sql** file.  

Copy the src directory to the root directory of your domain. Edit the **config.inc.php** file accordingly.  

You are ready to go.  

If you do not use donotlink under the root of your domain, **.htaccess** redirects and **robots.txt** rules will not work anymore.

### nginx

TBD
