FAQ

What is Simple URLs?

Simple URLs is a free link management tool that allows you to cloak links and create product displays. It’s designed to help you increase your affiliate revenue so you can scale your niche site faster. It is the free version of our premium WordPress affiliate plugin, Lasso.

How will Simple URLs help grow my business?

Simple URLs allows you to easily create stunning product displays, which have been proven to improve clicks, just by adding your referral link. More clicks mean more referrals and more affiliate commissions for you. You can reinvest in your business and grow faster with that added revenue.

How is Simple URLs different than Pretty Links?

Simple URLs does everything Pretty Links does, and much more. You can use Lasso to cloak and manage links, create incredible product displays, and increase your clickthrough rates.

How is Simple URLs different than ThirstyAffiliates?

Simple URLs allows you to manage your affiliate links the same way ThirstyAffiliates does, but with a much better link management dashboard. Simple URLs also gives you easy to use product displays, link groups, and more!

Can I use Simple URLs with any WordPress theme?

Absolutely! Simple URLs operates mainly in the WordPress admin, but the front-end features are compatible with any WordPress theme. If you believe you’ve found a compatibility issue, reach out to our support team, and we’ll get it taken care of right away!

Can I use Simple URLs on non-WordPress sites?

Simple URLs is a WordPress-only plugin like Pretty Links, ThirstyAffiliates, EasyAzon, AffiliateWP, Easy Affiliate, or WooCommerce. It can only be installed on WordPress.org-based websites or WordPress.com Business domains.

However, you can install Simple URLs on any new or existing WordPress website without interrupting your existing content. In addition, the shortened links you create with Simple URLs can be shared anywhere, such as forums, social media, email marketing campaigns, PDF and Word Documents, QR Codes… basically, anywhere you can share a link.

Can I track my affiliate links in Google Analytics?

Yes. You can either use the free Google Analytics by Yoast plugin or connect your site to Google Analytics directly. You can also connect Google Analytics by upgrading to Lasso.

Can I migrate existing links into Simple URLs?

Yes, as long as you can export your links (either via an .htaccess file, an export script, or the database), you can use the Simple URLs Importer to import your links easily.

Does Simple URLs Affect SEO?

Simple URLs will not hurt your SEO, and in many cases it can help SEO. Lasso’s lightweight displays keep readers on your site, which increases time-on-page and decreases bounce rates.

How many affiliate programs can I use with Lasso?

Lasso works with unlimited affiliate programs. There’s no limit to the number of links or affiliate marketing programs you can add.

Do I need an account to use Simple URLs?

You don’t need an account to use Simple URLs. Just download the plugin from WordPress and add it to your site. No affiliate registration is required.

Its pretty early but customer service appears to be on point. I am floored that they don’t have a Divi integration, but heres hoping to the future. I left thirsty affiliates because it just doesnt work with Divi without having to do the cumbersome act of collecting the short codes. I am basing my review on customer service at this point and will update when I have a bit more to go on.

I asked the plugin dev how to get rid of the banner and he stated once its dismissed, its permanent which is a blatant lie. When it was Simple URL’s it was great, now the most annoying plugin in the repo. Need to work out how to migrate out of Lasso permanently.

Great Plugin, design, and experience. Thanks for the great product!

Instead of just letting you use the plugin, they make Lasso Lite ugly and cumbersome on purpose to force you to subscribe. No Thanks
25 de julio de 2024
The affiliate links on my website were a mess and all needed replacing. This plugin is so good and allows the creation of attractive affilate links which are also easy to manage. There is not a whole amount of customisation – but what do you expect with the free version? Definitely 100% recommended from me.

This is an excellent option if you want a simple plugin to display neat Amazon Affiliate boxes. It’s free and works. Sure, it doesn’t have a full range of different styles, but if you want that, upgrade and get the complete Lasso plugin! I’ve just moved over from AAWP!
