Getting started

Create your account and your first AffKeeper link in a couple of minutes.

Welcome to AffKeeper. This page takes you from zero to your first working short link.

1. Create an account

Go to affkeeper.com and sign up with your email. You start on the Free plan — enough to try everything except higher limits.

2. Create your first link

From the dashboard, open Links → New Link and fill in:

• Destination URL — where the link should send people (your affiliate link, product page, anything http(s)://).
• Host — which domain the short link lives on. By default this is the built-in shortener; you can add your own branded domain later.
• Slug — the short code (e.g. summer-deal). Leave it blank to auto-generate one.
• Redirect type — 302 (temporary, default), 301 (permanent), or meta refresh.

Save, and your link is live immediately.

3. Make it an affiliate link (optional)

If the destination is an AliExpress product, mark the link as affiliate. AffKeeper will then track whether the product is still buyable and warn you if it goes out of stock or gets removed. See Product availability.

4. Watch the clicks

Every click is recorded — with country, device and referrer — and shown under Stats. Bot and click-farm traffic is filtered out automatically, so your numbers stay honest. See Stats & bot protection.

Next steps

• Create and organise links — slugs, folders, tags, redirect types.
• Add your own branded domain in one click.
• Automate from WordPress or the API.
