## Beschreibung

**Manage, create and track outbound links by custom pretty links with your domain.**

Through Linker’s short url tool you can know on which links your visitors are clicking.
Linker is the easiest tool to use in order to create a short link in your own domain&
track outbound link clicks from your website, using software like Google Analytics.

Create short links to your post, manage your 301 redirects, track affiliate links
and do many other URL related tasks easily.

### Major Features

 * Create Short and clean URLs, using your own domain
 * Redirect links to any location, both inbound and outbound, using 301 redirects
 * Track outbound link clicks, with internal reporting for Hits per link
 * Enjoy an intuitive and User Friendly Admin Interface
 * Setup tracking easily using Linker’s out of the box functionality
 * Set URL Parameters forwarding for improved tracking on every redirection

### How it Works?

Linker adds a new custom post type to your Admin menu, where you can create, edit,
delete, and manage Links by 301 redirects. What’s great about Linker is that it 
tracks click counts and saves them as a custom field. it’s really simple & cool 
and there is no setup involved. It works seamlessly straight out of the box for 
whichever theme and plugins you are using.

**Link Example**: Just to make it extra clear, here’s how the Linker plugin works.

 * Original URL: https://wordpress.org/plugins/linker/
 * New URL with Linker: https://pojo.me/go/linker/

Does not show anything on the front end. With such plug-ins it is always great to
have a sample or a screenshot; e.g. are there widgets, etc.?

Good plugin but it doesn’t work properly when the same slug is used in posts.
