Posting raw affiliate URLs is leaving money and data on the table.

Posting raw affiliate URLs is leaving money and data on the table.

A naked "?ref=aff_8842x_track" link looks like spam, scares cautious clickers, and tells you nothing about which video drives sales. You can't optimize what you can't measure.

Fix: cloak and tag. A clean branded redirect per video (yoursite.com/best-mic) builds trust AND tells you exactly which content converts. Then double down on the winners.

Still pasting ugly raw links and guessing what works? That's flying blind. Argue.
