Introduction

Deep links are links that direct your visitors to a specific page URL on a brand's site rather than to the brand's homepage. They are links that go deeper into the site. These links direct the visitor to specific information that is likely to help them decide to purchase or take another action that results in a commission for you.

Deep Link Builder

Your Partner Hub homepage has a Deep Link Builder tool available for you.
