that's a perfect reason to *not* use a url shortener.

you link redirects to a page at the following site:
http://savinghomeownerstips.com/

the link came up blank but that's probably due to spam-blocking at my
end.

the main page at that site has *nothing* to do with photography.

Yup! That is what I got. A blank page to a spam site.

I could have given you

you link redirects to a page at the following site:

That's strange. Both the TinyURL and the full address that I have just
given you take me directly to where I intended you to go. I think the
problem is at your end.

As you will see, it's not the main page we are after.

Nope! The problem is you are posting a URL to a spam, and email harvesting
site, using bots. Safe browsers and search sites such as Google will use the
“Robots exclusion protocol” and not permit the crawler injected by your
site to access vulnerable date on the computer of the individual attempting
to open the URL.

I get the same result as nospam, a blank, and so does Google who has this to
say:
"A description for this result is not available because of this
site'srobots.txt(http://lifestylesresearchinfo.com/robots.txt)”

that's the same spam link it redirects to.

either way, it's bogus.

nope. the same thing happened to savageduck.

This link sort of works for me. Sometimes it opens and then
redirects to the blank page, but it did finally stay on the right
page. Anyway, it even says "advertorial" at the top. The
disclaimer at the bottom is amusing, though. "We made this all
up". Pretty funny.

Easily identified as SPAM, and undoubtably a parasitic site.

I don't know what is really going on. I opened that site with one of
my working links and copied the line of text "We set our design goals
to make these lenses the finest in the world, bar none". I entered
this in the Google search engine and came up with the web address
"https://hdfx360.com/pre/us/index.html which when I opened it took me
straight to the web site I intended. I would be interested to know
what happens when you try it.
