## Beskriuwing

**BetterLinks is the complete link management plugin for WordPress.** Turn long,
ugly URLs into short, branded, memorable links — then cloak them, redirect them,
organize them and track every single click, all from one dashboard inside WordPress.

No third-party URL shortener. No monthly subscription for basic link tracking. Your
links live on your own domain, and your click data stays in your own database.

| [Live Demo](https://betterlinks.io/) | [Upgrade to PRO](https://betterlinks.io/#pricing)

### 🤖 NEW: Manage Your Links With AI (MCP Connector)

BetterLinks now ships a built-in **MCP (Model Context Protocol) server**, so AI 
assistants like **Claude**, **ChatGPT**, **Claude Code**, **Cursor** and **VS Code**
can work with your links directly — in plain English.

Ask your assistant to _“create a short link for this affiliate offer”_, _“which 
links got the most clicks last month?”_ or _“put every Black Friday link in its 
own category”_, and it does the work inside your own dashboard.

 * **Runs on your own site** — no hosted broker and no third-party service; your
   links and click data never leave your server
 * **14 built-in tools** — create, update and delete links, manage categories and
   tags, read click analytics, and read or update settings
 * **Two ways to connect** — a one-time OAuth approval for Claude and ChatGPT, or
   a copy-paste command for Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code
 * **Off by default** — nothing is exposed to anyone until you switch it on in **
   BetterLinks  MCP**
 * **Scope-aware** — apps that ask for read-only access are enforced as read-only
   and clearly labelled in your dashboard
 * **Revocable any time** — reset the connection token, or revoke a single connected
   app, with one click
 * **Admin-scoped** — every action runs as the administrator who approved it and
   respects that account’s permissions
 * **Built-in health check** — a live “Test connection” round trip tells you exactly
   which step failed if a client can’t connect

Built on the WordPress **Abilities API**, bundled with the plugin — there are no
companion plugins to install.

### 🔗 Create Short Links In Seconds

Paste a long URL, pick a slug, hit publish. BetterLinks generates clean short links
like `yoursite.com/go/deal` that are easy to share, easy to remember and impossible
to mistype.

 * **Instant URL shortener** — shorten any internal or external URL in a couple 
   of clicks
 * **Custom slugs** — write your own, or auto-generate from the title, target URL,
   or a random string
 * **One-click copy & share** — grab any short link straight from the dashboard
 * **Duplicate & bulk actions** — clone links, bulk delete with undo, drag-and-drop
   to reorder
 * **Quick Link Creation** — create short links from outside the WordPress admin
   using an API key
 * **Custom fields** — attach your own metadata to any link

### ↪️ Powerful Redirects & Link Cloaking

Send visitors exactly where you want, with the redirect type that fits the job.

 * **301, 302 & 307 redirects** — permanent, temporary and method-preserving
 * **Link cloaking (PRO)** — keep your branded short URL in the address bar the 
   whole visit
 * **Wildcard redirects** — match a whole path pattern with `/folder/*`
 * **Parameter forwarding** — pass query strings straight through to the destination
 * **Case-sensitive slugs** — treat `/Deal` and `/deal` as separate links when you
   need to
 * **Nofollow & sponsored tags** — mark affiliate links correctly for search engines
 * **Force HTTPS (PRO)** — every redirect goes out secure, whatever is stored on
   the link

### 📊 Real-Time Click Tracking & Link Analytics

Know which links actually work. BetterLinks records every click and turns it into
reports you can act on — no external analytics account required.

 * **Total & unique clicks** for every link
 * **Real-time analytics dashboard** with an interactive date-range calendar
 * **Traffic sources** — top referrers, social clicks, campaign performance
 * **Geographic reports** — see which countries your clicks come from
 * **Browser, OS & device breakdown (PRO)**
 * **Per-link analytics (PRO)** — a full report for any single link
 * **Top & worst performers (PRO)** — find your winners and your dead weight
 * **Bot filtering** — automated traffic is detected and kept out of your numbers
 * **Exclude your own IP (PRO)** — stop your team’s clicks from skewing the data
 * **Google Analytics 4 & Facebook Pixel (PRO)** — push click events server-side

### 💰 Built For Affiliate Marketers

BetterLinks is a full affiliate link manager, not just a shortener.

 * **Cloak affiliate links (PRO)** so long tracking URLs never appear in your content
 * **Auto-Link Keywords (PRO)** — turn chosen keywords into affiliate links across
   your whole site automatically

   and similar programs

 * **Broken link scanner (PRO)** — catch dead affiliate links before they cost you
   commission

### 🗂️ Organize Hundreds Of Links Without The Mess

 * **Compact mode** — a dense, single-line list when you want to scan everything
   at a glance

## FAQ

### What is BetterLinks used for?

BetterLinks is a WordPress link management plugin for creating short links, branded
links, affiliate links, redirects and trackable campaign URLs directly from your
WordPress dashboard.

### Who should use BetterLinks?

Affiliate marketers, bloggers, SEO professionals, agencies, content creators, ecommerce
teams and any site owner who needs to shorten, cloak, organize, redirect and track
links in WordPress.

### Is BetterLinks free?

Yes. The free plugin includes unlimited short links, 301/302/307 redirects, categories
and tags, click tracking and analytics, the UTM builder, CSV import/export and one-
click migration from other plugins. BetterLinks PRO adds cloaking, dynamic redirects,
advanced analytics and more.

### Do I need a third-party URL shortener like Bitly?

No. BetterLinks creates short links on your own domain, so your branding stays intact
and your click data stays in your own database — with no per-click pricing.

### Can I create branded short links?

Yes. Every short link is served from your own site by default, and BetterLinks PRO
adds full custom domain support if you want a separate short domain.

### Does BetterLinks track link clicks and analytics?

Yes. BetterLinks records total and unique clicks, referrers, countries, browsers
and devices, with a real-time dashboard and date-range filtering. Bot traffic is
filtered out automatically.

### Can I use BetterLinks for affiliate link management?

Yes — it is built for it. Shorten, cloak, organize and track affiliate URLs, add
nofollow/sponsored attributes, automatically link keywords across your content, 
and display FTC-friendly affiliate disclosures.

### Will BetterLinks slow down my website?

No. Redirects resolve from an optimized cache rather than repeated database queries,
so performance stays consistent even with tens of thousands of links.

### Can I migrate from Pretty Links or ThirstyAffiliates?

Yes. BetterLinks includes one-click migration for Pretty Links, ThirstyAffiliates
and Simple 301 Redirects, plus CSV import. Keep the old plugin active until the 
migration finishes.

### Does BetterLinks include a UTM builder?

Yes. Add UTM campaign parameters to any link. BetterLinks PRO adds saved UTM templates
that you can apply across many links at once.

### Can BetterLinks find broken links on my site?

Yes. BetterLinks PRO includes a broken link scanner for your short links and a full-
site scanner that crawls your published content, both with scheduled scans and email
reports.

### Does BetterLinks work with Gutenberg and Elementor?

Yes. There is a Gutenberg block plus instant-redirect controls in both the block
editor and Elementor, so you can create and insert short links while you write.

### Is BetterLinks translation ready?

Yes. BetterLinks is fully translation-ready and compatible with WPML.

### What is the MCP connector?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard AI assistants use to work with
outside tools. BetterLinks includes its own MCP server, so assistants like Claude,
ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code can create links, organise them and read
your click analytics for you, in plain English.

### Do I need another plugin or a paid service to use MCP?

No. The MCP server and the WordPress Abilities API runtime are bundled with BetterLinks
and run on your own site. There is no companion plugin to install, no hosted broker
in the middle, and no extra subscription.

### Is the MCP connector safe to turn on?

It is off by default and nothing is exposed until you enable it in BetterLinks  
MCP. Clients connect either through a one-time OAuth approval or a connection token,
every request runs as the administrator who approved it and respects that account’s
permissions, and you can reset the token or revoke any connected app at any time.

### Which AI assistants can connect to BetterLinks?

Any MCP-capable client. The setup screen has ready-made instructions for Claude 
and ChatGPT (via OAuth) and for Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code (via a copy-paste
command). Other MCP clients can connect using the endpoint URL shown on the same
screen.

I use BetterLinks Pro across multiple client websites, and it has made managing 
and sharing links so much easier. Many of my clients book services through external
platforms, and this plugin lets me create simple, branded redirects that are easy
for customers to click and remember. It keeps everything organized in one place 
and saves me from dealing with long, messy URLs. Support has also been great when
I needed guidance. Quick responses, clear help, and no runaround.

 [userblah](https://profiles.wordpress.org/userblah/) 30 Novimber, 2025

I’ve been using BetterLinks Pro for a while now, and it’s been one of the easiest
plugins to work with. It has made it simple for me to share links in ways people
actually use, especially for promotions on places like Instagram where QR codes 
are not always practical or easy for people to understand. Being able to quickly
create clean links and track how they perform has made a real difference in how 
I share things online. The support team has also been fantastic. Every time I had
a question or ran into something I could not figure out, they responded quickly,
helped me through it, and I never felt brushed off. That experience is a big part
of why I liked it enough to upgrade my license from a single site to unlimited. 
Overall, it just does what it is supposed to do without being complicated, and it
has genuinely helped me.
