Why should I use SmartLinks?

SmartLinks instantly connect to popular and useful sites, bringing the best and most relevant information on the web directly to your site. They give your visitors a richer browsing experience without sending them away from your site. Additionally, SmartLinks can be monetized with a range of affiliate IDs so that in addition to providing richer content for your readers you also introduce a layer of monetization across all new and old posts.

With SmartLinks your readers can discover, explore, connect, and browse smarter.

How does it work?

SmartLinks are automatically inserted when you link to supported sites, such as books on Amazon, movies on IMDB, music on Last.fm, stocks on Yahoo! Finance, and dozens of other great sites.

Then what?

When your users click on SmartLinks icons, a pane is launched which gives them a host of relevant information about that object.
