What are the advantages of shortened URLs in seo? Are these effective in getting ranked high in search results with specific keywords? Are there any flaws of using shortened URLs?

I don't think that length of URL or inner page name effects rankings.Earlier Keyword oriented names used to effect rankings but Post Panda Penguin updates I believe its website quality and its quality back-links only effects rankings.

Hi
earlier it used to work and considered to be a effective strategy to rank faster but now its not that important and quality content and promotion is necessary

Shorter links make sharing significantly easier, which promotes sharing as a whole. We are all hoping to get as many shares as possible when we post.

Shortened URLs are useful to share posts in social media websites. They help to reduce the character count in your post.

limits of URL length not considered important, but it should be proper and SEO friendly if you add your Keywords in the URL it would be well for your site.
it should be easy to read both of user and search engine crawler so it can help to get higher rank in search engine, it should be proper according to the page, we can put our primary keywords in URL so it would be beneficial for ranking in search engine, it should be shorter and better. poor URL may lose your search engine rank.
