Prettylinks (opens in a new tab)

PrettyLinks is a WordPress plugin for shortening, cloaking, and tracking links on your own domain. It covers redirects, click reports, keyword auto-linking, and a Link in Bio add-on. A free Lite version exists on WordPress.org. Paid licenses are yearly: Beginner (1 site), Marketer (2 sites), and Super Affiliate (5 sites). The affiliate program pays 25% on the first sale only, with a 60-day cookie. Applications are reviewed before you get a dashboard and tracking links. Tracking runs on Easy Affiliate. Current intro pricing is $99.60, $149.60, and $199.60 per year. Renewals go to $249, $374, and $499, but affiliates are paid on the first sale. At 25%, that is about $24.90 to $49.90 per referred customer. Payouts go out via PayPal at the start of each month, usually the 1st and no later than the 5th. Commissions must be at least 30 days old, and you need $50 accrued before a payout. A fit for WordPress creators, bloggers, and marketers who already manage affiliate links.
