While offering the main basic plugin for Free, you can get advanced add-ons integrated to help you with a smarter affiliate links management. They’re offering 6 additional add-ons to the main basic plugin at an additional cost.

Keep reading below, I will give you clear detailed insights about each of these add-ons. So you can easily decide which is the best for your business.

Amazon Addon:

This is my favorite add-on all the times. With this particular add-on, I’m literally able to maximize my amazon affiliate earnings significantly.

Well, There is no magic up there. This addon allows you to set variables for the same amazon affiliate link. Have you been wondering which Amazon store I should point my visitors to?

For example: Instead of setting one affiliate link to Amazon US store, ThirstyAffiliates Amazon Add-on allows you to set the same link to go to Amazon US, Amazon UK, Amazon India based on your visitor Geolocation.

With a combination of Amazon add-0n and Geolocation add-on, Your visitor will be redirected to his local Amazon store. This way you’ll maximize your amazon affiliate earnings significantly.

CSV Importer Addon:

This is another powerful add-on that could save lives. Let’s say you want to migrate from another link cloaking plugin to ThirstyAffiliates, Would you do migrate all the affiliate links manually one by one?

This plugin resolves it all. What you need here is to export a .CSV file from your old plugin, then importing it on ThirstyAffiliates plugin using this add-on. And that was it all!

This particular one is crucial and very important to have for big affiliate marketers. As this way, they’re getting long affiliate links list arranged properly in a matter of seconds.

Geolocation Addon:

Geolocation-affiliate-link

This is the WordPress country redirect plugin. This addon easily detects the user’s geolocation and redirects them to the corresponding local product page. So this way you’re not missing sales. And maximizing your affiliate earnings.

For example, BlueHost is offering their web hosting services via BlueHost U.S and BlueHost India. Using this add-on will allow you to direct Indian users to BlueHost India while pointing others to BlueHost U.S via the same link.

More Addons:

That is not all. ThirstyAffiliates is still serving more smart add-ons like Auto Linker, Stats, and Google Click Tracking. You may need to check them one by one to make decisions based on your business nature and preferences.

I’m not a big fan of Auto Linker addon. It simply detects certain keywords – you set – and auto-link them with your affiliate links. While looks promising, I think it will make the article to look spammy with many links.
