Best way to add links for affiliate campaigns (Bridge Pages)
Affiliates still need a way to track clicks and conversions. The smartest and safest way to do this on Reddit is by using bridge pages.
Because you are not linking directly to an affiliate URL, you can safely use hyperlinks inside Reddit comments when they point to a trusted bridge page.
Why hyperlinks are fine here
The link goes to a trusted domain, not an affiliate URL
Reddit filters are much less strict with these domains
Clicks are still trackable inside the bridge page
Stick rate remains high
How it works
Instead of this:
Reddit comment → affiliate link ❌
Use this flow:
Reddit comment (hyperlinked) → bridge page → affiliate link ✅
Recommended bridge pages
Reddit profile posts
Create a post on your own Reddit profile and place affiliate links inside it.
Then hyperlink that profile post directly in your comments.
Example:
Why it works:
Hosted on Reddit
Very low filter risk
Hyperlinks are safe to use
Affiliate tracking happens inside the post
Google Sheets comparisons
Use Google Sheets to compare providers and document your decision.
Hyperlink the Google Sheet directly in your Reddit comment.
Example:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/133sHTFvM9yRRxuUY1H0t30wDxSiZvgfWCJgFwBFBLZE/edit
Why it works:
Trusted Google domain
Looks like genuine research
Hyperlinks are allowed
Affiliate links live inside the sheet
Google Docs research posts
Write a Google Doc explaining your research or testing process.
Hyperlink the Doc in your comment.
Example:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mxN8vGS8A47957wcfgmMIQpfEDAIICum/edit
Why it works:
Trusted Google domain
Natural long-form content
Hyperlinks stick well
Affiliate tracking stays intact
Medium articles
Publish reviews or comparisons on Medium.
Hyperlink the Medium article directly from Reddit.
Example:
https://medium.com/@engain.io/top-7-agency-ad-account-providers-for-scaling-ads-in-2025-65c581705ac7
Why it works:
Medium is highly trusted by Reddit
Hyperlinks are rarely filtered
Affiliate links remain clickable inside the article
Gemini projects (Google Gemini)
Use a shared Gemini project to document your reasoning and final choice.
Hyperlink the Gemini project in your Reddit comment.
Example:
https://gemini.google.com/share/827460a13a2c
Why it works:
Google-owned domain
Reddit allows Gemini content
Hyperlinks face low scrutiny
Affiliate links are embedded inside
Pro tips

Never hyperlink raw affiliate URLs in comments
Write bridge pages like real research, not sales copy
Keep Reddit comments natural and short
Summary:
When using bridge pages, hyperlinks inside Reddit comments are encouraged. You get high stick rate, clean comments, and fully trackable affiliate clicks inside the bridge page
