Adding Targets to Your Links
Adding Targets to Your Links
Targets are the destination URLs where visitors are redirected. Every tracking link needs at least one target.
What is a Target?
A target is a destination URL that receives traffic from your tracking link. When someone clicks your tracking link, ClickerVolt selects which target to send them to based on your rotation algorithm and targeting rules.
Adding Your First Target
To add a target to a link:
Open the link creation or edit form
Scroll to the "Targets" section
Click the "Add Target" button
Enter the destination URL in the "Target URL" field
Configure optional settings (weight, max clicks, daily cap)
Click "Save" on the target form
Target URL Format
Target URLs must be complete URLs with protocol:
✅ Correct: https://example.com/landing-page
✅ Correct: https://example.com/page?utm_source=campaign
❌ Wrong: example.com (missing protocol)
❌ Wrong: www.example.com (missing protocol)
Target Settings
Target Name (Optional)
A descriptive name for this target. Helps identify targets in statistics. Example: "Landing Page A" or "Offer 1".
Target URL (Required)
The complete destination URL where visitors will be sent.
Weight (Required)
Determines traffic distribution in weighted algorithms. Higher weights receive more traffic. Default is 50.
Geo Filter (Optional)
Restrict this target to specific countries. Leave empty to accept all countries.
Max Unique Clicks (Optional)
All-time limit on unique clicks this target can receive. When the limit is reached, the target is automatically paused and stops receiving traffic permanently (until manually reactivated).
Max Daily Unique Clicks (Optional)
Limits unique clicks per UTC day. When the daily cap is reached, the target is excluded from selection for the rest of the day. It resumes automatically the next day — no manual action needed. This is ideal for daily budget caps or pacing traffic evenly over time.
Multiple Targets
You can add multiple targets to a single link to split test different offers or landing pages. ClickerVolt will distribute traffic according to your selected rotation algorithm.
Advanced Topics
Target Status
Targets can be active or paused:
Active: Target receives traffic according to rotation rules
Paused: Target is temporarily disabled and receives no traffic
Editing and Deleting Targets
You can edit target settings at any time. Changes take effect immediately. Deleting a target removes it from rotation permanently.
Passing Parameters
URL parameters from your tracking link are automatically passed through to target URLs. This preserves UTM tags and custom parameters.
