Description

Easily set up links like /hop/google/ to redirect users to www.google.com. This can be useful in masking your affiliate links.

If your affiliate link needs to change, you can just change the HOP values in a single place, without having to search your site for outdated links.

  1. Upload plugin to your wordpress installation plugin directory
  2. Activate plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress
  3. Look at the configuration screen (found under Tools in the WordPress menu)
  4. Supply a Name and URL for each redirect you want to use.
  5. You’re done!
What’s the Base URL?

If you use hop, then your redirection links will look like this:
http://www.site.com/hop/name

What’s a Hop Name?

The Hop Name appears after the Base URL in the redirection link. This tells the Link Hopper which destination URL to redirect to.

Does this include statistics and click-tracking?

No, not at this time. It’s a simple link-redirect script.
