How to make a VKontakte link using a word, a picture, or a person. Wiki markup

Greetings! Today I’ll tell you how to disguise and shorten an affiliate link on VKontakte so that there are no blocks.

Very often VK blocks affiliate links. I will show you proven and working solutions to this problem. Sometimes affiliate links are very long and need to be shortened and hidden.

Proven methods: how to shorten and disguise an affiliate link on VKontakte

The easiest way is: shorten the link in VKontakte on the “Link Shortening” page. Paste the long link into the field and click “Shorten.” But this method may not help disguise the link.

Then you can use the Senler (500 rubles bonus upon registration)

In the mailing service, we create a separate group (I called it “Test”) and subscribe only ourselves.

Next, when you send a message with a link, you select only this group. You will receive a message in your messenger with an already disguised link - copy and place it where you need it.

Be sure to check the box: “Count link clicks” so that your link is masked.

Important: if you simply click on the “Send me” (test) button, the link will not be masked. You just need to set the time and send a real message to the group (namely to yourself). Then the link will be disguised by the Senler .

If you have not used the Senler mailing service, then read the article: How to work with Senler ...

Redirect plugins for WordPress

Let's start with the Pretty Links , it has a free version and shows the number of clicks on a masked link (English)

We install it on the site and activate it, then click on the name of the plugin in the WordPress console.

Click “Add new”

At the top you can write the name of the link (for yourself), then select the type of redirect (I have 301). In the second window, insert the link that needs to be masked. The third contains the name of the link on your domain in Latin. The fourth field is notes (for yourself) And then click - “Update” (on the right)

Now your masked link will be in the list and can be copied and posted on VKontakte. If you need to edit a link, hover over it and “Edit”

There is also WP Direct Url Links – a paid, inexpensive plugin. You can see click statistics and referral sources there, and it’s in Russian.

In order to use these plugins, of course, you need a domain and hosting . One of the best hostings is Timeweb , where you can purchase a domain and make yourself a website and subscription pages.

Masking with your domain through the Trimlink service

This is a professional link shortener where you can connect your domain. The Trimlink service is paid, there is a trial period of 5 days.

The Trimlink service has the ability to connect Yandex Metrics or Google Analytics to analyze traffic. There are definitions of boosted traffic and collection of retargeting databases.

In order to use this service you need to “Add your domain” and follow the instructions.

Friend, now you know several ways to bypass VKontakte affiliate link blocking.

Thank you for attention!

You can also write in the comments other methods that you use.

I wish you success!

Link to external site from VKontakte

To begin with: you can shorten links by removing the cumbersome https://www and leaving just site.ru. In this form, the link will be clickable, and it looks beautiful and does not scare away readers with its appearance.

If you need to insert a huge link that looks ugly in the text, you can use the VKontakte service for shortening links vk.com/cc - you will get a neat link (vk.cc/MglKp).

External link VKontakte

If there is only one link in the text, you can insert it into the text and it will appear under the entry. After this, even if you remove it from the text, readers will be able to click on the link under the post and go to the desired site.

But this option doesn’t look as nice as →

Link to an external site from VKontakte in text

But you can hide an external VKontakte link under the text, but only on the community wiki page. Brief step-by-step instructions:

1. Create a wiki page:

https://vk.com/pages?oid=-ID GROUPS&p= Page_name

GROUP ID – the numbers of your page, if you don’t know, you can see by clicking on the wall “100500 records” and in the address bar you will see your group ID: 45839957

The PageName will appear below the post, so give it a meaningful name.

2. Click “Fill with content” and write the desired text.

3. Insert a link: select the desired text and click on “Add link” on the toolbar. There, select External link and enter it in the lower field.

Or you can manually write: [address|link text]

For example, [https://yaworkathome.rf|Click here]

4. Copy the page link from the address bar.

5. Write compelling copy to attract readers' attention to your wiki page. Insert a link to it - it will not be displayed in the text, but will simply be attached below as a View button.

Here is also an excellent resource for masking links, with the possibility of rotation: The service will determine the type of device, as well as the location of the visitor, and then redirect him to a suitable resource. This site is folink.ru

Victor, greetings! Thank you for your feedback. Now there are many such services, but I somehow got used to masking the link with my domain, through the Pretty Links plugin.
Answer

Different types of links

Unfortunately, not all links can be hidden under text in VK posts. Links to posts from a social network, as well as external links, can only be placed in regular posts in the form they are. You can shorten such links using a special service to reduce the length. For example, the service https://vk-cc.com.

If we are talking about links to the page of a user, company or group, then you can insert them into posts, as well as write their text at your discretion.

Third party link shortening services

If for some reason you are not satisfied with the functionality of the social network, you can use third-party sites designed to perform a similar task. Here are some of them:

is.gd;
to.click;
bit.do;
u.to etc.

Working with all of these services is similar to that presented for VKontakte. You will need to paste the link into the appropriate field and click the “Shorten” button. Most sites provide access to detailed statistics, but you will have to register to do this. In some cases, it is even possible to change the final form of the shortened address.

Reference. The widely used goo.gl service has been discontinued since March 30, 2021. All shortened URLs still work, but creating new links is no longer possible.

By making the page address shorter, the user gets a more attractive link that is easier to use. To achieve your plans, you can use the built-in functionality of VKontakte or resort to third-party services. Almost all of the sites presented allow you to track statistics of clicks on shortened URLs, which makes it possible to analyze user interest in the published link.

Deleting Photos, Videos, Recordings

Clearing bookmarks of this type of content is even easier. You will need:

1. Open the corresponding tab (Photos/Videos/Recordings) on the “My Bookmarks” page. 2. Click “Like” under the photo or video. After which it will disappear from your bookmarks.

Note. At first glance, this removal procedure may seem a little strange. But it is not without logic. As soon as you mark the content you like (click like), the VKontakte system immediately sends it to bookmarks. Thus, when you click again, you remove both your likes and bookmarks.

How to make a link to a person on VK using a word

First you need to find out the id of the account you want to link to. Finding it out is quite simple - it’s either a word or a set of numbers in the address bar of the browser, immediately after the address of the VKontakte social network itself. This is what it looks like in words:

Or an option with numbers:

Moreover, in the digital version it is necessary to copy the numbers along with the letters id

The scheme is like this:

[id|link text]

For example, a post like [x_x__o_o|Seryozhka rusqueb =)] will lead to my VKontakte profile with the anchor “Earring rusqueb” =)

This is how it will look, for example, on the wall:

The same trick works for VKontakte links to the group [public48861576|here you will be taught how to make websites with your own hands]

By the way, when you make such a mention of another person, he receives an email that you mentioned him =)

[sc:Ads336]

Recently, the task has become much easier - you don’t have to bother with all sorts of codes, you just need to put the asterisk symbol * and start typing the name of a friend or the name of a group, and you will have a pop-up list, click on the one you need and there it is - the text link-mention is ready. All that remains is to set the link text (it is in brackets)

Via computer

There are two ways to remove a user from the bookmarks section. Let's look at each one separately.

First method:

Let’s open the social network VKontakte and go to the “ Bookmarks ” section.
A page with all saved bookmarks will open. There will be various items such as " Posts», «Communities», «Links" and so on. Since we will be removing a person, we need the item “ People».
We will be redirected to a page with all saved users. In this section, you need to hover over the avatar of the person you want to remove from your bookmarks.
Place the cursor over three dots and left-click on the line “Remove from bookmarks».
Ready! After this, the user will be deleted.

Second way:

Let's go to the page of the person we want to remove from bookmarks. Find the section in the form of three dots and click on it with LMB.
In the window that appears, click on the line “Remove from bookmarks».
That's all. After this, the person will be removed from the bookmarks section.

These two methods will help you remove any people from your bookmark list. Decide for yourself which one to use.

Now let’s remove the entry from the bookmarks section. This is done as follows:

Let's go to the "Bookmarks" section.
On the right side of the screen we will find the line “Posts" Click on it with the left mouse button.
After this, a page with all tagged entries will open. We'll find it on an unnecessary publication three dots. Let's point the cursor at it.
Click on the column “Remove from bookmarks" Once this action is completed, the entry will be deleted from this section.

In this way, you can delete not only posts and people, but also communities, articles, links, videos, products that you previously added to your bookmarks.
