Roadmap

• Link Performance Analytics

  We're planning to add detailed analytics to show how your links are performing. You'll be able to see which links are most popular with customers, track how often they're clicked, and see how many sales they generate. This insight will help you understand what's working well and how to adjust your linking strategy to attract more customers.

• Background Link Generation

  To make your site faster, we'll generate the useful links behind the scenes instead of while a page is loading. This means your product and category pages will load quicker, providing a better experience for your customers.

• Automatic Link Updates

  When you make changes to your site - like moving pages or updating URLs - the plugin will automatically update all the links for you. This ensures that all links stay valid and your customers won't encounter any broken pages.

• Customizable Link Appearance

  We'll offer more ways to customize how your links look. You'll be able to change colors, fonts, and styles to match your store's branding, making your site look more professional and appealing to customers.

• Link Prioritization

  You will have the ability to prioritize certain links based on what's most important to your business. This means you can highlight key links to make them more noticeable, guiding customers to your most important products or pages.
