This is a plugin that helps in managing longer URLs in wordpress blogs by shortening them when you are sharing them in a post. When talking about this plugin, one would forget to think about using any affiliate pro plugin to track how many times a link is clicked. It’s useful for managing downloads, keeping track of outbound links and for masking URL’s.

The Short URL Plugin eliminates the work of going to some external sites like tinyurl.com, bit.ly etc. for shortening the long URLs. (Click on the image to enlarge it)
