A couple years ago a client asked me for their own URL shortener service. I found YOURLS (https://github.com/YOURLS/YOURLS) and reluctantly installed it on a cheap, shared, hosting account.
Thankfully after a couple years, I convinced them (it took several tries) to use a 3rd party hosted provider.
Bullet dodged.
I just made up `blogger.com` as an example. I probably could have picked a better one. `blogspot.com` & its many TLD variations are on the list.
It looks like the repo where the list is maintained [1] is pretty active. YMMV, I'm not a maintainer or anything..
