Default Twitter Marketing: Why You Need To Cloak Affiliate Links?

If you are into Twitter marketing, you should market your affiliate products effectively. As an affiliate marketer, you will promote and market these products with your affiliate links. Some affiliate links maybe short, but most of them will be long. No matter if your affiliate links are very short or long, they still look ugly right? To tell you the truth, these affiliate links look very ugly after all and it needs to be cloaked with any free URL shortener sites.

Why we should cloak our affiliate links?

First of all, we are only allowed to tweet with 140 characters. So it means an alphabet, number and space are considered as characters. For example, if your tweet is like this:

“Get your free internet marketing eBook here affiliateprogram.com/hop=x0x7yht

In this tweet, we can count this as 76 characters (including spaces, parenthesis are not included). If the customer will see this kind of affiliate link, they have doubts on clicking them. In other words, it looks so ugly for you to promote this long and ugly affiliate link via Twitter. However, if you try to shorten and cloak them with any free URL shortener sites like this:

“Get your free internet marketing eBook here bit.ly/x0x7yht

In this tweet, you will see a big difference on the number of characters. This time, we may count them as 58 characters. So it means you have saved 18 characters already in promoting your eBook. Best of all, this link is friendly and not ugly, as most Twitterers (especially celebrities and famous names) are using URL shorteners to share their links. As an internet marketer, you should also do the same thing.
