Introduction
Meaning of URL ( from Wikipedia: Uniform Resource Locator) Shortening your URL is making your web address substantially shorter in length and still direct to the required page.
Advantages of shortening your URL
(a) It can help you remember a very long URL to a beautiful post you'd want to visit again.
(b) You can easily use it to share long links along with your post on websites or platforms that limit your post, e.g Twitter; tweets.
(c) It can make your affiliate links shorter and with a unique new look so that your visit would not know it's an affiliated link
