There is one reason for using ow.ly <http://ow.ly> URL shortener and

This was the major point I was thinking of mentioning. Personally, I
feel like link shorteners are only necessary if they're being utilized
to collect statistics and metrics. Judging by the context of this
thread, do we know who has the keys to the Hootsuite? I feel like social
media engagement statistics are something that could be an invaluable
resource to gauging which of our social media posts are effective and
which ones aren't as engaged.

So, I am not aware of who holds the keys to Hootsuite, but for stats tracking
this would not be required.
If we would just use t.co, Wordpress statistics that we have should see the
items coming in just fine through the http referrer header.

With this in mind, personally, I feel like link shorteners are not necessary then. If we can get the stats, I personally think it's not a bad idea to avoid them.
