List what you are going to add to the gitignore file before working on this issue.
HTTP 301 redirect is a permanent redirect. Means that link cannot be used for other redirections.
If an user copies an URL "A" and shortens it using alias "X", now if another user copies URL "B" and gives it the same alias name "X". Then the newly shortened URL still points to the URL "A" and the pointer to URL "B" is lost i.e. URL "B" is not shortened although it shows on the website as URL "B" is shortened.
If you want to get a much clear idea do take a look at soo.gd ( A URL shortening service)
The field accepts anything typed into it. Add a check for proper website.
Create bar chart that could be used to track analytics for URLs used.
So, instead of a static SITE_URL, it should fetch the server from the current URL.
An optional feature for creating a custom alias in the URL shortener such as http://url-shortner.com/alias-name in which the user enters the alias name.
Since the default settings.py file is changed to settings.py.example after removing SECRET_KEY.
It is giving import error while running the project.
Readme files need to be updated accordingly with instructions how to setup settings.py file from settings.py.example file.
This URL shortener is written in django. So to execute it on local server a few steps are needed. How to clone, install dependencies, virtual environment install, commands in terminal (preferably Ubuntu or Fedora). Commands in other distros are welcome too!

Everytime the same url is shortened, different short-url pops up. We will have to resolve this by showing same short-url whenever the same url is asked by the user to be shortened.
The idea in my mind is to store the short-url to database and then fetch it whenever needed.
Implementing it is a tad difficult i think.
Any other suggestions are also welcome.
Now even if a URL is shortened the shortener again shorts it and generates a different link. But that is not of any use as the URL is already shorted by some other shortening services.
Just like once bit.ly shorts a URL if the shorted URL is typed into goo.gl site it shows invalid URL or link already shortened.
It would be good if we had some service like that.
Add more URL shortening services (such as t.co, lnkd,com, po.st etc.) to the popular_shortening_urls list inside is_already_short function to check whether input URL is already short.
