Smartlink— what it means in affiliate marketing
One link that routes each visitor to whichever offer should perform best for their geo, device and source.
It turns offer selection over to the network, which suits leftover and mixed traffic and hides which offer actually paid. Convenient on mixed traffic, uninformative when you want to optimise.
