Understanding Link Statuses

Active

Your link is working correctly. It returns a successful response (HTTP 200) and loads within an acceptable time frame.

Unverified

We don't recognize this affiliate link pattern, but we've added it for monitoring. Please click the link to verify it works and contains your affiliate tracking. After our health check confirms the link loads, it will become Active.

Broken

The link returns a 404 (Not Found) error. This usually means the product page no longer exists or the URL is incorrect. You should update or remove this link.

Redirect

The link redirects to a different URL than expected. This could indicate the affiliate program has changed their link structure, or your tracking parameters are being stripped.

Blocked

The link returns a 403 (Forbidden) error. This could mean the page is geo-blocked, the affiliate program has restricted access, or there's an authentication issue.

Slow

The link takes longer than 3 seconds to respond. Slow links can hurt user experience and reduce conversions. Consider contacting the merchant about performance issues.

Error

The link encountered an unexpected error (timeout, connection refused, SSL error, etc.). This may be a temporary issue - we'll continue monitoring and update the status.
