users, you misery of choosing between a good URL shortening service is now over. The WordPress team has released a new shortening service in the form of WP.me, this will be used across all the current WordPress.com services.

WP.me Features

  • WP.me is the only two-letter .me domain in the world.
  • Every blog and post on WordPress.com has a WP.me URL now.
  • These are all exposed in the <head> using rel=shortlink.
  • It doesn’t work for any URL in the world, just WP.com-hosted ones.
  • The links are permanent, they will work as long as WordPress.com is around.
  • WP.me is spam-free, because we are constantly monitoring and removing spam from WP.com.

There are several more things why WP.me is better than the other URL shorteners out there, Matt the co-founder of WordPress can explain better.

Note: We discourage users from using keywords in their names while posting comments, most of them get caught by spam, also it really would be more fruitful in knowing people who comment by their real name, rather than by using a name no one relates to. In future we reserve the right to delete comments from users using a name other than their own.
