Kly.so: URL shortener that pays you

Why would you need to shorten your URL I ask myself? Mine is pretty short anyway. But shortening one's URL is not about most of us. Where it is of most benefit is with something like a particular forum or if you share a link on Facebook or Twitter. Kly.so is a URL Shortening Service that not only does the shortening work for you but also pays you for the privilege. The only thing that they ask is to put a small advert on your link (which can be skipped).

Kly.so is a free URL shortening service with a twist.. you get paid to share your links on the Internet! Short URLs are great for when text space is limited. Just register for a free account and start shrinking. You get paid for every person that visits your URLs. Place your short URL's on Facebook, Twitter, forums, personal websites and any social networking sites. Kly.so will pay you more than US$4.00 for every 1000 visitors to your links. All advertising is strictly family-safe with no popups plus you get eal-time statistics with revenue reporting. When you refer users you get a whopping 20% commission! Kly.so also offers you a lot of different tools you can use to generate shortlinks including a Mass Shrinker Tool, API, Easy Link, Google Analytics and Export.

Free URL Shorteners are fairly easy to find these days. So now the thing to look for are Shorteners with benefits. Kly.so gives you the chance to make a little money out of it too just for putting a fairly unobtrusive advert on your page. URL Shorteners are a great idea if you share a lot of links on your social networking sites. Forum's can have a habit of having a massively long URL address, too. When you've only got a certain number of letters to play with on your Facebook or Twitter you don't want it all taken up with the URL.

Thankfully, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to use Kly.so either.
