Memberdefault links will update, but old links they’re already using. Will they work? that’s the question.
I’ve just changed the default landing page for aff’s. I realize that if they log in, get their new aff url, it will work. I’m being proactive and sending them all an update by email explaining that the url has changed so they can update any links they have already used.
my question though is, will the old links work?
I’ll preface this by saying that the old link landing page is still there and has not been changed. IT’s the actual “buy” page, but I’ve changed the way the aff’s customers are presented with the purchasing decision. I’m now sending them to a pre-sell page, where they learn about the product first, THEN, click the link to buy and go to a second page (the original default landing page).
all I want to know is, if the aff does not update the links, or the links were distributed out, through various ways, will the old aff link still drop a cookie and capture a sale for them.
I’m pretty sure it will, but I’m asking.
just want to know if I should set up a 301 redirection or not
