You publish something like `yoursite.com/go/product` instead of `https://example.com/ref?id=12345&sub=abc`. Link Manager Pro stores the real affiliate destination, redirects each click to that URL, and lets you update the destination later without hunting through old posts. You pick the slug (the `go/product` segment), configure the redirect type, set `rel` attributes, and optionally forward query parameters. The masked URL works as soon as you save the link. You perform every step inside **Link Manager Pro → Links**; you never hand-edit `.htaccess` for basic affiliate hops. - [How to Track Link Clicks](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/guides/track-link-clicks.md): You track link clicks in WordPress with Link Manager Pro by creating **masked** (redirect) links. Link Manager Pro **records every click** on those URLs automatically—you skip extra tags, pixels, or theme edits. Open **Link Manager Pro → Analytics** to filter by date, link, affiliate, or campaign and to read breakdowns by device, country, referrer, and operating system. For plain internal links inside post content, you enable **internal click tracking**; a JavaScript tracker posts each event to a **REST** endpoint, **rate-limited to thirty requests per minute per IP**. You own the data in your database, so you correlate traffic spikes with content updates on your timeline. - [How to Find Broken Links](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/guides/find-broken-links.md): You find broken links in WordPress with **Link Manager Pro → Link Health**. The plugin flags problems two ways: it **scans post and page content** for outbound URLs and checks each response with `wp_remote_head`, and it **records 404s** visitors actually hit on your own site. You review both lists in one dashboard, open any row for the URL, source page, HTTP status, and detection time, then either fix the HTML or create a **one-click redirect** from the bad path to a working page. You optionally turn on **email digests** in **Settings** so summaries land in your inbox on a schedule you choose. - [How to Add Nofollow Links](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/guides/nofollow-links.md): You add `nofollow` to links in WordPress with Link Manager Pro in two places: **global defaults** under **Settings → Link Attributes**, and **per-link toggles** when you create or edit a masked link. You can also set **domain-level defaults** for each **Affiliate** partner so every hop to that merchant inherits the same `rel` values. The plugin exposes **nofollow**, **noopener**, **noreferrer**, and **sponsored** in the UI. For **`ugc`**, Google’s label for user-generated links, you follow the same policy choice in HTML or blocks where you control raw attributes—pair it with **nofollow** on community-sourced destinations. You revisit **Settings** whenever your legal or SEO policy changes site-wide. - [How to Create Redirects](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/guides/redirect-links.md): You create redirect links in WordPress with **Link Manager Pro** by mapping a **custom slug on your domain** to a **destination URL**. Open **Link Manager Pro → Links → Add New**, paste the destination, set the slug (for example **`go/sale`**), pick **301**, **302**, or **307**, and save. Visitors who hit **`yoursite.com/go/sale`** land on something like **`https://shop.example.com/spring-sale?ref=you`**. You can add a password, limit active dates, forward query strings, and branch traffic with conditional rules. **301** marks a permanent move and passes link equity; **302** suits temporary promos; **307** matches **302** but keeps **POST** as **POST** for forms and APIs. - [How to Add UTM Parameters](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/guides/add-utm-parameters.md): You add UTM parameters to WordPress links by tagging destination URLs so **Google Analytics** attributes traffic to source, medium, and campaign. **Link Manager Pro** gives **reusable UTM templates**—preset **`utm_source`**, **`utm_medium`**, **`utm_campaign`**, **`utm_term`**, and **`utm_content`**—that you select when you create or edit a link; the plugin appends those values to the final URL. You can still type per-link overrides for one-off tests. Links sharing the same **`utm_campaign`** roll up in **Link Manager Pro → Campaigns** for aggregate performance next to click analytics. - [How to Manage Affiliate Links](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/guides/manage-affiliate-links.md): You manage affiliate links in WordPress from **Link Manager Pro → Affiliates** and **Links** in one dashboard. You register each partner with a **name**, **website URL**, and **domain**; the domain drives **auto-linking** when that merchant appears in post content. You set **default `rel` attributes** (for example **nofollow** and **sponsored**) per partner, organize links with **categories** and **tags**, and review **per-affiliate click analytics** in **Analytics**. You enable **disclosure** so posts that contain affiliate or sponsored links can show an FTC-style notice automatically. You filter and bulk-manage links by partner when your catalog grows. - [How to Add FTC Disclosure](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/guides/ftc-affiliate-disclosure.md): You add FTC affiliate disclosure in WordPress by enabling Link Manager Pro under **Settings → Disclosure**: write **custom text**, set **before** or **after** content, adjust **styles**, and pick **post types** (posts, pages, or custom types). The plugin **finds posts that contain affiliate or sponsored links** and shows the notice only there—pages without monetized hops stay clean. You keep full control of wording; Link Manager Pro handles placement and targeting so you skip pasting boilerplate into every post. Confirm output with your counsel and your theme. ### Reference - [Glossary](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/glossary.md): You send a 301 when you permanently move a URL. Search engines transfer link equity from the old URL to the new destination. You rely on 301 redirects for affiliate destinations and permanent URL changes, including those you manage in Link Manager Pro. - [Changelog](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/changelog.md): All notable changes to Link Manager Pro are documented on this page. - [FAQ](https://docs.linkmanagerpro.com/llm/faq.md): Link Manager Pro is a WordPress plugin that centralizes link masking, click tracking, affiliate management, link health monitoring, and internal link auditing in one dashboard.
