About LinkDefendr
Once you have signed up to LinkDefendr, you will be asked to sign in to your Google account, and then select the YouTube channel you want LinkDefendr to monitor. This is via the oAuth standards provided by Google. During this linking process, you will be shown what access we will have to your account. It is 'Read Only'. That means we can retrieve your YouTube channel details, but not modify anything. We use the YouTube API to retrieve your videos and descriptions. Next, we look at the description and extract any links that appear. We then check to see if that link is still 'live'. If we don't get a 'Success' status back, we will flag it as an error, and then try three more times to make sure it really is dead. Once all the links have been checked, we will drop you an email with the result. You can then log into your dashboard to see which links are dead. LinkDefendr will automatically check all your links every day.

Affiliate Account
Visit https://linkdefendr.io/affiliates and sign up. Then when you refer anyone to LinkDefendr, use your unique url. If you forget it, it is shown on your affiliate page. Your unique URL will set a 30 day cookie on the users computer, so if they sign up within 30 days of visiting the site, you will get the commission.
When you sign up, you need to tell us the Paypal account you would like to be paid into. When a payment is made, we need to hold the commission for 30 days, in case your referral decides to cancel his subscription and requests a refund. You will be paid at the start of the first month after the 30 days. eg: A user signs up on the 25th May. You will be paid your commission on the 1st July. Your Commission Dashboard will show a list of payments taken, the commission due, and the date it will be paid.
The current commission rate is 30% recurring monthly, as long as the referred user continues to subscribe. If they change their subscription, your commission will change accordingly. If they cancel their subscription, your commission for this user will stop. Your Commission Dashboard shows the amount you are due and when you will be paid.
