Manage affiliate links

Give each affiliate link a short address on your site (/go/name) that is marked sponsored for search engines, count clicks without tracking visitors, see which posts use each link and find offers that stopped working. This is part of Zinn® SEO Pro.

  1. Add a link — Go to SEO, Writing, Affiliate links and press Add a link. Paste the Affiliate address, give it a name and press Add the link.
  2. Use it in posts — Link to the short address in your posts. Every link to it gets rel="sponsored" (and nofollow if chosen), and search engines are kept out of /go/.
  3. See clicks and posts — The list shows clicks over 30 days and the posts that use each link; Find links in all posts reads your whole site.
  4. Find broken offers — Press Check every link now. Links whose page is gone show as Broken.
