New Deeplinking Tool From Paid On Results
Posted under: Creating deeplinks can be an annoying and time consuming process, especially if you’re busy blogging or writing content for your website. Most networks have tools to help you generate deeplinks, but the guys over at Paid On Results were the first to provide a one click browser based solution. They’re about to relaunch the tool and they’ve kindly let me have a sneak peak.
And blimey, it’s pretty damn good!
The process is very simple. You put an icon on your browser toolbar, which is done as simple as dragging the necessary link, and you’re ready for deeplinking fun. Under the first system POR launched, when you wanted a deeplink for one of their merchants you clicked the link when on the merchant site. This gave you a text link to use!
The new system gives you so much more than just a link!
For example let’s take this lovely looking giant cup cake tin that’s available from Prezzybox. I want the deeplink link for this and so all I have to do is click the “Paid on Results Deeplink Generator” on my browser. This results in a pop up box appearing as follows:
Not only do you get a deeplink for the product you’re looking at, you also get options to customise the link including shortening the url which is ideal for Twitter promotions. If you’re worried about the link there’s even an option to test it! You also get a product image to use direct from POR’s feed system. The image can be resized with a number of options.
If that wasn’t enough they you also get links to banner creative that can also be used in my promotions. It totally removes the need for logging in to the CMS, rooting around for banners, copying images from a merchant site and figuring out deeplink structure.
Quite simply – brilliant!
It’s compatible on Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari and Opera too, so there’s no limitations imposed there. The only thing missing is that the pop over box is static and I’d like to have the ability to move it, but that’s a minor quibble over what is a very clever and intuitive tool from the POR guys.
The new deeplink generator tool will be available for all to use from next week.

That looks brilliant. Nice to have the image and option to add a click-ref.
thats awesome, its going to save so much time when writing articles etc. but it does bring up one question, what if your writing a post with multiple merchants on multiple networks? i use skimlinks alot as a result and i almost want this to be a skimlinks tool instead so that its network agnostic.
