While entering the affiliate marketing field, one might come across many challenges, especially regarding choosing an <\/span>offer<\/span><\/a>. But since Smartlinks don\u2019t demand that, could they be a perfect choice for both beginners and experienced marketers?<\/span><\/p>\n

In this article, <\/span>RichAds ad network<\/span><\/a>\u2019s team will explain what Smartlinks are, how they work and give some useful advice on promoting them!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

What are Smartlinks in affiliate marketing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Smartlinks<\/a> are a technology in affiliate marketing that contains many offers within and by analysing user data determines which one to show individually. So, what is smartlink used for? While usually one referral link equals one offer, Smartlinks can provide way more of them, picking the one that algorithm concludes will be the most converting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, Smartlink offer is not exactly a single offer but a variety of them selected to be shown individually each time. This also means that for every user a single Smartlink might lead to different offers.<\/p>\n\n\n

How does a Smartlink work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since affiliate Smartlinks in essence present not one particular offer but many, they have their own mechanism by which they both gather user data and select the most appropriate offer. In this part, RichAds ad network<\/a> will explain how a Smartlink works in those terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While clicking affiliate links on ads or being shown a pop ad, which also demands clicking on a publisher\u2019s site with a special JS script, the Smartlink technology tracks that click. By that it can gather such data on the users as geo, device, OS, browser language, etc. The Smartlink AI analyses all the information according to algorithms configured by the affiliate network<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Eventually, based on all the data analysed, the algorithm picks an offer that is estimated to be the most suitable for the exact user. The way Smartlink tools attach certain data with appropriate targeting of existing offers is based purely on configuration set by the CPA network. Meanwhile, the whole process from the click to redirecting users on the selected offer takes literal seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best traffic sources to run Smartlink offers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For Smartlinks in affiliate marketing, the best would be ad formats that possess high volumes of traffic worldwide, so that the offers can match as much audience. Also, it\u2019s important that such methods don\u2019t restrict advertising various categories on certain geos, as such policies might affect promoting, for example, online casinos and sports betting platforms on Facebook and Google Ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
