RetargetLinks — Turn every link you share into targeted ads

@sergesalager @_jacksmith Thanks a ton Jack! 😃

@jensger we don't place your ads in front of any other ad. We actually PAY the publisher (FastCompany, DerSpiegel, Wall Street Journal etc) to place your ads through Google, ApNexus, OpenX etc. It's a bidding process that happens in milliseconds but our bidding algorithm always makes sure your ads are placed. Our service is used by large companies like P&G and WPP.

Hey @adamscochran, congrats for @omersventures raise! We are fans of DuckDuckGo here in Vancouver (in Singapore now as going through Techstars/Rakuten accelerator). To answer your questions: 1) We are priced at a premium because we consistently deliver x3-10 ROI for our users. We are also more or less in line with Facebook ads so not unreasonable. Last but not least, most of our users are in the $100-300 spend range and give volume discounts once your monthly spending goes beyond this. 2) In order to get a discount, you can reach out to us at hello@retargetlinks or @marillondesmaraisbeaupre once you have a certain number of clicks in order to estimate your spend before launching the campaign. In your case, we don't have any doubts that you can reach enough people to benefit from this. 3) We insert an anonymous retargeting cookie in the browser of the person clicking on the link and then we redirect to the final destination. If the cookie happens to appear in FastCompany, then they will let us know via (most likely) Google Display Networks and we place our bid for that cookie. We might win or loose the auction. We aggregate the data on where people are clicking the links from (Twitter, email, Facebook etc) and the location at a country level. We also aggregate the device type (iPhone, Android) and browser (Chrome, Safari) but that's it. No PII whatsoever, no data collected, no tracking of any sort. We just know that *a* person that clicked the link is now in Fast Company and that we can bid to show an ad. 4) Our cookies are set to last 6 months but you are also limited to frequency caps. These are no more than 2 a minute, 5 an hour, 9 a day and 15 ads max per person for the duration of the campaign. All this can be set to your wish: on clients that work on travel know they targets are going to take a decision within a week so the lifetime of their cookies is set to 2-3 weeks. They frequency cap is, concurrently, more aggressive. 5) We place our cookie (we don't give away our ID, I am afraid, as this is our business model ; - ) but we allow users to also place the Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn pixels as we are still working on these integrations. Note that the script that places our cookie is designed to fire very quickly and made for link retargeting so you will not have the same "cookie-drop" performance with these third party pixels. Excluding the Facebook app on mobile that obviously can't be cookied, we are able to insert the cookies in 75-90% of the cases whereas a "site" retargeting cookie will be around 30-40% because of the slow speed. The fast speed insertion is part of our patent claims. 6) As you'll see if you create an account, you can have as many campaigns as you want. Once you place a cookie and, if the cookie is not expired, you can display a fresh set of ads to your audience as the frequency caps is per group of ads. 7) Yes we do. Our trade desk plugs to AppNexus and Double Click. We can also provide brand safety services and any other programatic request. None of this is available on our front end but we can customize your campaigns directly on our back end. 8) Yes we do. The most frequent use case is for exclusion cookies on the "Thank you for your purchase page" so that person is not retargeted anymore. Hope this answers all your questions but please reach out to us at hello@retargetlinks.com if you want to dig deeper and kick the tires!

@jiwon_nique_jang Thank You Jiwon! We value you as a customer and really appreciate your support 😄

@raphael_io Hey Raphael, Thanks so much for the support - we are so glad it's working well for you 😃

Thank you Sailesh - really appreciate it! Always good to wow the investors for sure 😉

@couro Hey Andy - thanks a ton for the support :) We are actually working our way through in-app browsers. Social Media in-app browsers and Safari are quite hard to crack into - so far, no one has been able to get into there. However, if your links are opening a chrome browser on mobile - then you can definitely use us!

@joshua_marindo Hi Joshua, Thank you for the question. You do not have to go through any other platform as we display the ads for you. You just have to drag and drop your ads into our platfrom (in JPEG, PNG or GIF format). We have our own DSP and bid for your ads on high authority sites including Forbes, CNN, Vogue, Cosmopolitan (just to name a few). Let me know if you have any more questions!

@ed_hsu Hey Ed - thanks for the support! We actually inserted a pixel right into the link for you so you don't need to add in another pixel at all! In regards to the Facebook pixel - that is not automatic yet (we are working on it) - however, you can add in your Facebook pixel into the platform. We have a helpdesk article about that which might be helpful - check it out: https://retargetlinkshelp.zendes...

@akosdeliaga Hi Akos - we are glad you find it interesting! You definitely can - we provide free branded links. Just shoot us an email at hello@retargetlinks.com to get it set up. Here is a helpdesk article that is also helpful: https://retargetlinkshelp.zendes... Let us know if you have any questions!

With @retargetlinks you don't have to bother with paying a monthly subscription to a link shortener service on top of paying Facebook or Google ads or deal with code. Utter simplicity: shorten, share, drag & drop ads. Enjoy free branded short links (like co.ke assuming this existed), free ad design service, unlimited clicks and links! Contrary to "borrowed" site retargeting pixels from Facebook, AdRoll and Google (which are slow), our patent pending pixel is made for links and fires super fast. Our tests show close to 90% cookie dropping performance vs 30-55%. You don't even need a website to activate the site retargeting pixel which is required with that route. Lastly, there is no monthly subscription: We have our own trade desk so you'll have to pay for ads directly to us.

@sofia_chikara Hey Sofia - thank you for the support! So we only charge you when you start your ad campaign. Creating the shortlinks and building your audience is completely free :) Here is a little more information in terms of our payment model: We offer for free: Unlimited short links Branded URL Facebook pixel Ad design We charge: $8 per thousand impressions of your ads.

@kathleen_acosta Hey Kathleen - we are glad you find us interesting 😃 You are very right - the reason why we built this product is because we wanted the whole vocabulary of coding and pixels removed and to make it super simple to use. We are actually in the works of building a Shopify app right now! We are hoping it goes live soon - will let you know as soon it does 😃

@aku_shika Hi AkuShika, Thank you so much. We are definitely a great solution for small agencies looking to provide the results of big ones and getting on Vogue or Forbes can definitely do that. We are glad we could help you guys out!
