Why GetShortlink?

When you have the need to quickly and easily cut & paste a link that you want to email to a friend or use on Twitter, GetShortlink let’s you K.I.S.S.: Keep it simple, Stupid.  Grab the shortlink just like you would from your browser URL field, paste and send!

Also, for those concerned with potential “link rot” from relying on third-party link-shortening services, or for those just wanting to extend their brand and get their name out there via atomization of their own domain name, then GetShortlink provides the perfect solution allowing you to serve up shortlinks based on your own site’s url.

No longer is there a need to search through admin pages nor shortlink libraries: GetShortlink places your shortlinks where and how you and your visitors need them most — on your published pages, ripe for the taking!
