The basic structure for accessing a shortened URL is: https://spoo.me/<short_code>
Example - https://spoo.me/ga
For password-protected URLs, use the same basic structure. This redirects to a password entry page.
Example - https://spoo.me/exa
Password - Example@12
Tip
Bypass the password entry page by appending the password to the URL parameters - https://spoo.me/<short_code>?password=<password>
To view the statistics for a URL, use the following structure: https://spoo.me/stats/<short_code>
Example - https://spoo.me/stats/ga
Note
You won't be able to view statistics for a password-protected page unless you provide its password.
