Makhlas

Makhlas is the easiest way to replace the internally generated WordPress shortlinks.

Shortlinks are a great way to quickly share posts on social media like Twitter, Facebook and Whatsapp. Just finished writing an amazing post and want to share that post with your friend? It’s a lot easier to text message a shortlink than the entire address.
