In their own words
AffyLink
AffyLink turns phrases in existing posts into affiliate links and lets site owners manage where those links lead. Users match a phrase to a destination, and matching mentions in the body of a page become links when it is drawn. It does not link inside headings, menus, or comments, and that limit cannot be configured; switching AffyLink off leaves posts unchanged. A WordPress plugin is available, with snippet-based setup for Ghost, Webflow, Next.js, and hand-written HTML. Imports from ThirstyAffiliates and Pretty Links can be previewed before data is written. Reporting covers keyword impressions and clicks; clicks are not capped or charged on any plan. AffyLink does not show Amazon commissions, because Amazon does not report conversions to third-party tools, but it supports per-site Amazon Tracking IDs. Links are marked nofollow sponsored, with an FTC disclosure enabled by default. The Free plan covers one site, 10 links, 25 keywords, and 5,000 monthly impressions. Starter costs $8 /month; Pro is $25 /month and Network is $75 /month. A 14-day trial is listed.
