Adding Links / Redirects

On the Links / Redirects screen of your dashboard, you're able to create internal or external "short links" (redirects). These are great for internal links or for masking your affiliate links.

There are many different usecases for these links, here are the most popular ones:

  • Redirect an internal page - if you change the URL path (slug) of any internal page, keeping a redirect from the old URL to the new one would be better for SEO purposes.
  • Masking affiliate links - this is great for your affiliate links because you don't expose the full link path until after the user clicks on it.
  • Keeping links short - if you want to use a more attractive URL for your latest post, video or podcast for example, you can redirect the /latest path to one of your existing posts. That's just an example an obviously can be used for pretty much anything.
