Overview

Lightweight WordPress link manager from the WP Recipe Maker team; Premium adds stats, conditional links and a broken link checker for $29 a year.

What it does

Easy Affiliate Links is a lightweight WordPress plugin by Bootstrapped Ventures, the studio behind WP Recipe Maker. It manages every affiliate link on your site, cloaked or not, in categories, with monthly and lifetime click counts, and it works in both the classic editor and Gutenberg. CSV and XML import and export make it easy to bring links in from a spreadsheet or another plugin. It has more than 7,000 active installations and is kept current with recent WordPress releases.

Premium is where the useful extras live: full click statistics with timeline charts and per-link detail, conditional links that send visitors from a specific country or device to a different destination, replacement links for temporarily swapping an affiliate URL, an automatic broken link checker with email notifications, Amazon Product API links and an automatic tooltip disclaimer next to affiliate links.

Pricing is the lowest in this category. Premium is $29 a year for one live site, or $119 a year for a 20-site licence, with free updates, priority support and a 30-day money-back guarantee. Licences renew automatically.

It does not offer keyword auto-linking or product displays, and the interface is plainer than the bigger names. For a food blog or small niche site that wants clean links and a health check without a $100 bill, it is hard to beat.
