Loqate Introduces Address URL Shortener Lqt.me, Version 2.0

Online, November 11, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Loqate (http://www.loqate.com), a leader in international address verification, today announces the release of lqt.me Version 2.0. lqt.me is a unique address bookmarking and sharing site. lqt.me (http://lqt.me/) is powered by Loqate, the most powerful address verification engine in the world and can accurately locate addresses in over 240 countries to enable users to create, customize and share locations anytime, anywhere, globally. lqt.me is based on the same technology chosen by IBM, Oracle, SAS, Pitney Bowes, and others to power address verification in their products.

"Shortened URLs will become essential for sharing, posting and tweeting in this era of social networking," explains Loqate CEO, Martin Turvey. "URL shorteners are in wide use today to provide an easy way to navigate the web. With lqt.me, we make lives easier by condensing a whole address into one URL along with a map to help people navigate the physical world."

lqt.me is simple to use: enter your location, customize your link and share it via email, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest or download a QR code. The URL redirects users to the full address and provides directions and a 3D map. The lqt.me URL can then be embedded in emails, websites and social media posts.

lqt.me is on a path to be the number 1 substitute for full addresses. This unique tool answers the needs of both businesses and individual consumers. For example, businesses such as real estate agencies, restaurants, bars, event planners, or web site developers can use lqt.me custom URLs or the free QR code tracking to post locations on their websites, email signatures, business cards, marketing collateral, or promotional items. Individual consumers can leverage lqt.me to share their locations with friends and family, organize events, share their current location on social media platforms, or just set up a meeting at a coffee shop. Easy, simple and reliable, lqt.me URLs are the next cool tool to share locations anytime, anywhere, globally.
