Hello,

Im obviously doing something wrong. When i added a 3rd link separately form the 1st two I ordered. I get this message below. When it askes to remove the redirects, it gives me a link too long. Help! What am i doing wrong. See message below

Your link redirects visitors more than 3 times!


What is a redirect?

Redirect is a link that automatically sends (hops) a visitor to another link. This is widely used by all click trackers.


Each redirect takes time. The more time your site loads, more customers you'll lose.

One second delay will result in:

- 11% fewer page views

- 16% decrease in customer satisfaction

- 7% loss in conversions


Please remove unnecessary redirects.

I think the rule of the thumb is to just use one redirect which should be for your click tracker in which redirects to your landing page later.

There is no problem if the link would be too long, it will be masked with Udimi's tracking link on the ad copy of the vendor's swipe anyway.

Thank you very much for the information. Much appreciated :)

I use redirects because most of the sellers buy traffic from one another and that leads to the same people seeing ads which in itself is a waste
