🔗 One Link (Shortener) to Rule Them All (And You Actually Own It)
Stop renting your book links. Own them. No more Bit.ly detours or disappearing Google shorteners—just simple, smart links that work for you.
You know that feeling when you have a book to promote, and suddenly you're drowning in links? Amazon, Apple Books, Kobo, Barnes & Noble, Google Play—each one like a needy toddler demanding attention. And heaven forbid someone asks, “Hey, which link should I use?” Cue the frantic search through your bookmarks.
And let’s not even talk about Bit.ly throwing up intermediary pages (so long, smooth reader experience), or Google killing off their short link service entirely (RIP).
Yeah, I got tired of that nonsense. So, I built StoryLink—a free WordPress plugin designed to make your life as an author infinitely easier. And here’s the kicker: YOU own it. Your links. Your domain. No middleman.
✨ What’s StoryLink?
Think of it as your personal book link butler. Instead of juggling a million URLs, you create one smart link that:
✔️ Geo-redirects readers to the right store based on their location
✔️ Displays all retailer options on a sleek landing page (because choices = happy readers)
✔️ Auto-inserts your Amazon affiliate ID (cha-ching!💰)
✔️ Generates a QR code so print readers can hop online in a snap
✔️ Tracks clicks & conversions with built-in analytics and ad pixels
✔️ Lives on YOUR website, YOUR domain—not a third-party service that might vanish overnight
🚀 How It Works (In 2 Minutes Flat)
1️⃣ Add Your Book’s Links – Drop in Amazon, Apple, Kobo, and the gang.
2️⃣ Customize Your Short Link – Make it pretty: yourwebsite.com/go/mybook
3️⃣ Share & Track – Post it everywhere. Watch the clicks roll in.
Boom. Done.
📢 Why You NEED to Own Your Links
🚫 No more third-party shenanigans – No risk of Bit.ly changing how your links work or Google pulling the plug.
🌎 No surprise redirects – Your links go exactly where you send them—no detours.
📊 You control the data – Own your analytics, track reader behavior, and optimize your marketing.
💡 Why settle for generic link shorteners when you can have one built specifically for authors—and fully under your control?
