  • QUOTE: VigLink enables you to get paid for doing what you normally do on your blog or site. Whenever you link to a product, website, or promotion, VigLink turns that link into an affiliate link so that you receive a commission for any purchases made. If you'd like, VigLink can automatically insert new links in your site where you've referenced brands, merchants and (coming soon) products, creating additional opportunities for you to get paid. We also look for URLs that are not linked (likely by accident), and link them for you. VigLink is completely configurable; if you would prefer not to have new links inserted, or want to turn it on, you can quickly and easily enable or disable that feature.
