No uploads. No tracking. Just instant link cleaning for better SEO and affiliate hygiene.

🧠 What is Amazon Link Cleaning?

Amazon link cleaning is the process of removing tracking parameters, unnecessary query strings, and other clutter from Amazon URLs while optionally preserving affiliate tags. This creates cleaner, more SEO-friendly links that are easier to share and manage.

Amazon URLs often contain many tracking parameters added automatically when users click through various pages or use different features. These parameters include:

Tracking parameters — ref, linkCode, creative, qid, and many others
Session data — Information about the user’s browsing session
Search parameters — Keywords and search-related data
Affiliate tags — The tag= parameter that identifies affiliate partners

Cleaning these URLs removes unnecessary tracking data while preserving the core product link and optionally keeping your affiliate tag for commission tracking.

⚠️ Why Amazon Links Get Cluttered

Amazon URLs accumulate tracking parameters for several reasons:

Automatic Tracking
Amazon adds tracking parameters automatically when users navigate through the site, click on recommendations, or use search features.

Session Data
Parameters like ref_ and qid track user sessions and browsing behavior for analytics and personalization.

Search Parameters
When users arrive via search, Amazon adds parameters like keywords and sr to track search queries.

Affiliate Tracking
Affiliate partners add their tag= parameter, but Amazon may add additional tracking on top of it.

Cross-Platform Tracking
Different platforms (mobile apps, desktop, Alexa) add different tracking parameters.

Link Sharing
When links are shared or copied, they often include all accumulated tracking parameters.
