內容簡介
ShortURL 外掛可讓您實現 Short URL Auto-Discovery 規範，讓您使用網誌作為您自己的 URL 短網址服務。您的短網址將以 http://domain/-code 的形式出現。
自動檢索功能讓支援此規範的第三方服務使用您自己的短網址，而不是使用像 TinyURL、bit.ly 之類的服務生成新的短網址。這為您的文章和頁面提供了規範的短網址，獲得所有的 SEO 優勢，不會將流量泄露到外部域名，並避免了鏈接失效。首頁的短網址設置為 http://domain/ 具有獨特性。
ShortURL 外掛的另一個重要利益在於，當您更改網誌的永久鏈接結構或重新命名某特定文章或頁面的短標題時，所生成的短網址不會出現問題。
由於最近微格式社群和 WordPress.com 都選擇使用 rel="shortlink"，而非其他建議，因此 ShortURL 外掛現在也在使用它。

原文外掛簡介
The ShortURL plugin allows you to use your blog as your own URL shorterning service by implementing the Short URL Auto-Discovery specification. Your short URLs will be in the form of http://domain/-code.
The auto-discovery feature allows third-party services that honor it to use your own short URLs instead of generating new ones using services such as TinyURL, bit.ly, and others. This gives your posts and pages canonical short URLs that give you all SEO benefits and don’t leak traffic out to external domains and will prevent linkrot. The homepage short URLs is set to just http://domain/ as a unique feature.
The other great benefit of the ShortURL plugin is that the generated short URLs won’t break if you change the permalink structure of your blog or rename the slug of a particular post or page.
Due to the recent choice of both the Microformats community and WordPress.com to use rel="shortlink" vs the alternative proposals, the ShortURL plugin is also using it now.
