Affiliate Link Cloaker

Introducing the Affiliate Link Cloaker — Clean, Branded Links

Turn long affiliate URLs into short, branded /go/ links and get the redirect snippet to deploy. Free, client-side, and built for creators who hate ugly links.

If you’ve ever pasted an affiliate URL into a post and winced at the wall of tracking parameters, this one’s for you. The new Affiliate Link Cloaker turns links like example.com/dp/B09…?tag=you-21&ref=… into clean, branded links like yoursite.com/go/best-laptop.

What it does

  • Shortens and brands any affiliate URL to a tidy link on your own domain.
  • Generates the redirect snippet you actually need — HTML meta-refresh, Apache .htaccess, or Nginx.
  • Builds a compliant anchor tag with rel="nofollow sponsored noopener" in one click.
  • Stays deterministic — the same URL always gets the same short code, or set your own custom alias.

Why it helps

Clean links get more clicks because they look trustworthy. They’re also easier to manage: when an affiliate program changes, you edit one redirect rule instead of fifty old posts. And because everything runs in your browser, none of your links are ever uploaded to us.

Try it

Open the Affiliate Link Cloaker and cloak your next link in seconds. New to the idea? Our guide, Affiliate Link Cloaking: What It Is and How to Do It Safely, walks through redirects, disclosure, and SEO so you set things up the right way.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it host the redirect for me?
No — it generates the branded link and a ready-to-paste redirect snippet (HTML, .htaccess, or Nginx) that you deploy on your own server. Nothing you enter is uploaded.
Will it keep me compliant?
It generates an anchor tag with rel="nofollow sponsored noopener" for you. You still need to disclose affiliate relationships to your audience.
