Customise the blog links
-
Hi we need to use bit.ly customised link instead of the wp link. Or is it possible to customise the link before sending it out on the Twitter and FB profiles.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello there,
The wordpress.com free hosted blog linked to your uusername is an amity blog. Is that the blog you are referring to or do you mean another one? If so please post the link to it starting with http://We cannot change the permalink structure on free blogs from and being free hosted by wordpresss.com.

Edit: 1st sentence above ought to have read:
The wordpress.com free hosted blog linked to your username is an empty blog. -
In the publish module under publicize (click on edit link) you can customize the message going out and you should be able to put the “bit.ly” URL in there. The problem is, you have to publish the post in order to get the bit.ly URL I think, and when you publish it, it will be sent out with the wp.com link.
A catch 22 I’m afraid. WordPress does not allow us to choose the URL shortener we use.
This is all the support information we have: http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/ .

If you sent the link out manually to Twitter and Facebook you can use whatever shortener you like, or, for best SEO, none at all.
