With Short.io Google Chrome Extension and Buffer, create every post with custom branded links and send posts to all of your social media accounts in a matter of seconds.

Buffer is a useful application for scheduling and posting to all your social media accounts at once. As a default state, Buffer shortens links with its generic domain "buff.ly." However, you can change settings to no shortening and create short URLs on your branded domain.
