Affiliate Link Management Plugin for Wordpress

This entry is part 5 of 10 in the series Affiliate Marketing with Blogs

What can you do to increase your affiliate marketing efforts in 10 minutes?

Not much, unless you’re thinking about the CashLinks Wordpress plugin by Elena Melendez that allows you to automatically insert keyword-based links into all future, current and old blog posts.

What that means is, by specifying certain keyword in the Options panel (below), you can make every instance of that particular keyword appearing on your blog link to an affiliate product.

Affiliate Management Plugin for Wordpress

For each link, you can choose to display the affiliate link by:

DHTML – Displays a pop-up box when someone places their cursor over the link
Title only – Shows a short description of your title
Disable – Disables all effects, your link appears like any other plain, unformatted hyperlink

I have been looking for something like this for a long time. If you’re promoting many affiliate products from your Wordpress blog, you’ll realize that it’s difficult to keep up after a while.

Here’s how this plugin can help your affiliate marketing efforts in just 10 minutes:

Select a keyword on your blog, for example “autoresponder”, and link it to your affiliate program
You can specify any keyword you want, and once you click save, all the keywords will become links, even on old posts.
Track the clicks on the Options page, replace low-performing affiliate programs with different ones
Use “keyword-based” dynamic linking instead of linking directly from posts

This plugin will not only help you manage your affiliate links, it will also help you mask your naked links and keep track of clicks. It’s not a free plugin (a lot of good ones aren’t) but at $27 it worth the money.
