13 Ways to Get the Most Out of

Your Skimlinks Account

Without the code installed on your site, Skimlinks

isn’t going to work, so make sure you install!

How? In the publisher interface click on the

Installation tab underneath ‘Setup & Settings’.

Install the code#1

If you include a web address, always make it

clickable.

Always try to use the deep link straight to the

product page, rather than a retailer’s homepage.

Remember to link!#2

Images are a very engaging way to get drive

traffic, and Skimlinks will tag links on images.

Link images#3

If you turn on SkimWords, it will find your plain-

text product references and create affiliate links

for them. It’s yet another way to make money.
