💬 *Description*
This is not another video rehashing the Honey Scam… Instead, we’re going to talk about how creators could have caught on to what was happening a lot sooner, and how your business is still vulnerable to losing affiliate/sponsorship revenue unless you fundamentally change how you share links online.
We cover why every creator needs to use their own short links, the best link shortening tools (TinyURL vs Short.io vs Bitly vs Dub), how to set up your links correctly, and how to monitor your traffic (and what to do when something seems off). This video is for all creators, big or small, so buckle in, take notes, and learn how you can have full control over your own data.
