Adding Links
Once you have a domain, click Add link from the link list. Each link wraps one affiliate URL and tracks clicks through your subdomain.
Fields
Slug — the path after your subdomain. For example, a slug of bluehost produces the link my-brand.lnk.ac/bluehost. Slugs are unique per domain and can contain letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores.
Destination URL — where visitors land after clicking your link. Must start with http:// or https://. This is your affiliate URL with whatever sub-ID parameters the network requires.
Label — a human-readable name for the link. Only visible inside Conduit, never shown to visitors. Useful for distinguishing between multiple links pointing to the same offer.
Category — a free-text tag for grouping links. There is no fixed list; type whatever makes sense for your setup (e.g. hosting, software, email). Categories appear as a column in the link list.
Fallback URL — if Conduit detects that the destination URL is unreachable, visitors are redirected here instead. Overrides the domain-level fallback if one is set. Leave blank to use the domain fallback, or no fallback at all.
Link status
Each link shows one of three statuses:
- active — destination URL was reachable on the last check
- broken — destination URL returned an error on the last check
- unchecked — the link hasn't been checked yet
Status checks run periodically. A broken status does not disable the link — Conduit still redirects, using the fallback URL if one is configured.
Pausing a link
Clicking Pause stops Conduit from recording clicks on that link. Visitors still get redirected to the destination, but no click events are logged. Click Resume to re-enable tracking. Paused links show a paused badge in the link list.
