Thanks guys!
Glad to hear you are working on some of that stuff already.
When I said actual link cloaking I meant doing something (an iframe could work) that would forward my link to the destination url and mask that destination url in my visitors browser with my “pretty link” so that they don’t see the actual destination url.
Thanks for the recommend on the Analytics plugin but I’m trying to keep my plugins down to a minimum and it’s not that difficult to install Analytics code with most themes. I use google tag manager to instal it. And I know there are ways to push click events into analytics through tag manager but I just figured it could be easier to for most people (myself included) if the link plugin allowed for some sort of event trigger to fire over to analytics if the code is already installed.
I’m pretty sure that ThirstyAffilites does this with their Google Click Tracking add on
Just something to consider adding that could be useful to users.
Anyways thanks for the reply.
I look forward to seeing this develop.
And please do add the ability to forward utm parameters
This is vital in tracking profitable affilate campaigns
Thanks again…
