Lasso Lite – Affiliate Link Manager & Product Displays

外掛說明

Managing affiliate links gets messy fast. You paste a long tracking URL into a post, then another, then another. When an offer changes, you dig through old content hoping you catch every instance.

Lasso Lite is a free WordPress plugin for people who promote products with those links (including Amazon Associates). It keeps your links in one dashboard, cloaks them behind short URLs on your site, and turns them into product displays with images, prices, and buttons.

Example: use yoursite.com/go/best-kayak instead of a long Amazon URL. Change the destination once, and every place that link appears stays current.

Why Lasso Lite?

  • Fix a broken or outdated offer in one place instead of hunting through posts
  • Turn a plain link into a product display without leaving WordPress
  • See basic click counts so you know which links people actually use
  • Import an existing link library instead of rebuilding it
  • Start free, with no account required for core features
  • Go from install to a live cloaked link in a few minutes

How this is different from a basic URL shortener

Most shorteners and cloaking plugins mainly create redirects. Lasso Lite also gives you:

  • A dashboard for all your links
  • Product displays for posts and pages
  • Groups for organizing links
  • Basic click counts
  • Imports from other link plugins

Your first five minutes

  1. Install and activate Lasso Lite
  2. Click Add New Link and paste an offer URL
  3. Insert it into a post with the Lasso Lite block or the [lasso] shortcode
  4. Publish. Your cloaked link is live (add a product display if you want one).

What’s included

All your links in one place
Search, edit, and organize offers from a single dashboard.

Clean short URLs you control
Replace long tracking URLs with links like /go/your-slug/. Update the destination once when an offer changes.

Product displays for your content
Add image, title, price, badge, and buttons to reviews and roundups. Insert with the block or shortcode.

See which links get clicked
Each cloaked link stores a basic click count. Connect a free Lasso account for clearer reports.

Optional Amazon product details
Connect Amazon credentials to help fill product info on displays.

Insert links while you write
Works with the Block Editor and Classic Editor.

Organize with groups
Sort links by niche, merchant, or campaign.

Import from other plugins
Pretty Links, ThirstyAffiliates, Easy Affiliate Links, AAWP, EasyAzon, AmaLinks Pro, Earnist, and Affiliate URLs.

Already using another link plugin?

Import your existing links, tidy up groups, and keep publishing. No need to rebuild your library by hand.

When you need more later

Lasso Lite covers everyday link management on its own. If you later want deeper reporting, link monitoring, or richer display layouts, you can move up to Lasso. Your existing links and displays come with you.

常見問題集

Is Lasso Lite free?

Yes. The dashboard, cloaking, groups, imports, product displays, and basic click counts work without paying. A free Lasso account is optional for support and richer reports.

Do I need a Lasso account?

No. Create one when you want help or clearer click reports.

Does it work with Amazon?

Yes. Cloak Amazon links and optionally connect credentials for product details on displays. Other programs work too.

Can I import links from another plugin?

Yes. Pretty Links, ThirstyAffiliates, Easy Affiliate Links, AAWP, EasyAzon, AmaLinks Pro, Earnist, and Affiliate URLs.

Will it work with my theme and the Block Editor?

Yes. Standard WordPress themes, plus Block Editor and Classic Editor.

Does it work with Elementor?

Yes. Lasso Lite includes an Elementor widget for adding displays while you edit a page.

What’s the difference between Lasso Lite and Lasso?

Lite covers cloaking, displays, groups, imports, Amazon setup, and basic click counts. Lasso adds deeper reporting and monitoring. What you build in Lite carries over.

Where do I get help?

Docs: support.getlasso.co. Forum: wordpress.org/support/plugin/simple-urls.

Is this the same plugin as Simple URLs?

Yes. Lasso Lite is the current name (Formerly Simple URLs). Same WordPress.org listing (slug simple-urls).

I almost skipped this because of some of the reviews, but I’m glad I gave it a shot. I imported my links and pretty much forgot about it. A little later I signed up for a free account, and now some of my Amazon links automatically earn higher commission rates. I didn’t really have to change anything. Ended up upgrading to the Pro version, but the free plugin was a good way to get started and see if it was worth it.

I had a glitch and tech support was right on top of it. They were going to go so far as to clone the site and work out the glitch. (I think in hindsight, it may have been my fault.) It turned out not to be needed, however, I’m impressed. Love the _professional_ compaines!

Its pretty early but customer service appears to be on point. I am floored that they don’t have a Divi integration, but heres hoping to the future. I left thirsty affiliates because it just doesnt work with Divi without having to do the cumbersome act of collecting the short codes. I am basing my review on customer service at this point and will update when I have a bit more to go on.

I asked the plugin dev how to get rid of the banner and he stated once its dismissed, its permanent which is a blatant lie. When it was Simple URL’s it was great, now the most annoying plugin in the repo. Need to work out how to migrate out of Lasso permanently.

Instead of just letting you use the plugin, they make Lasso Lite ugly and cumbersome on purpose to force you to subscribe. No Thanks
