1. Create Your Account

Sign up for a free GeoRedir account at georedir.com/register. No credit card required — the free plan includes 3 smart links and 1,000 clicks per month.

After signing up, you'll land on your dashboard. This is where you'll manage all your smart links, view analytics, and configure settings.

Click the "Create Link" button on your dashboard. You'll need to provide:

  • Name — A descriptive name for your link (e.g., "Casino Offer - Q1 2026")
  • Slug — The URL path (e.g., best-casino creates yourdomain.com/best-casino)

Slug Tips

Keep slugs short, descriptive, and lowercase. Use hyphens instead of underscores. Avoid special characters.

3. Add Redirect Rules

Rules determine where visitors are sent based on their location, device, or traffic splitting. Each rule has a priority (lower number = evaluated first) and a destination URL.

The four rule types are:

  • Geo — Route by country or region (e.g., US visitors → offer-a.com)
  • Device — Route by device type (mobile, desktop, tablet)
  • Traffic Split — Split traffic by percentage for A/B testing
  • Fallback — Default destination when no other rules match

Always Add a Fallback

Every smart link should have a fallback rule. Without one, visitors from unmatched countries or devices won't be redirected.

Example Setup

Rule 1 (Priority 1): Geo → US, CA
  → redirect to offer-north-america.com

Rule 2 (Priority 2): Geo → GB, DE, FR
  → redirect to offer-europe.com

Rule 3 (Fallback):
  → redirect to offer-global.com

After saving your link, test it by clicking the URL. You should be redirected to the destination matching your country. To test other countries, use a VPN or ask colleagues in different locations to click the link.

Check your analytics dashboard to verify clicks are being tracked correctly. You should see your test click appear within seconds.
