The only email platform that tracks past the click

Every other platform stops at opens. AuthorSend gives each book one short link you point wherever you sell — a store page, or the universal link you already use — and then does the part a link shortener cannot: it resolves every click to the subscriber who made it and the email that sent them.

Smart book links

One link, every store or destination covered

One short link per book, pointing wherever you sell. Use a store page, or point it at the universal book link you already have — Books2Read, Booklinker, Geni.us — and let it do the store and country routing it does well. AuthorSend adds what it cannot: the reader’s identity.

  • Every click resolved to the subscriber who made it, and the send that drove them
  • Retailer attribution tags carried through the link, so pre-order clicks stay credited to your campaigns
  • Universal fallback so a reader always lands somewhere they can buy, on any device

Results, not just opens

Follow the send through to the result

Opens and clicks only tell you an email got attention. AuthorSend connects the click to what happened next — which link a reader took, which landing page they converted on — so you can see which sends actually moved the needle instead of guessing.

  • Click-through tracked per link and per campaign, wired into your reports
  • Landing-page signups attributed back to the send that drove them
  • Honest reporting: an unmeasurable result reads as “no data,” never an invented number

For your own store, track past the click — to the sale

Retailers never tell you who bought. Your own store does. Connect Shopify, Payhip, or WooCommerce and every paid order flows back in: the buyer joins your list marked as a buyer of that book, the order is fulfilled with a personal download link, and journeys can fire on the one trigger backed by a real sale.

  • Every store order matched to a subscriber and marked as a real purchase
  • Automatic fulfilment — the buyer is emailed their download the moment payment lands
  • “Buys from your store” journey trigger and buyer segments, built on sales instead of proxies

Follow the money

Everything between the send button and the sale

Universal store routing

One link you point wherever you sell — a store page, or the universal book link you already use.

Named clicks, not counts

See which subscribers clicked your buy link — the thing a link shortener structurally cannot tell you, because it has no idea who they are.

Device breakdown

Know whether your buyers click from phone, tablet, or desktop.

Honest attribution

When a result isn’t statistically meaningful, the report says so — never a made-up number.

Retailer attribution tags

Attribution tags carried through smart links keep pre-order and store clicks credited to the campaign that drove them.

Conversion tracking

Landing-page signups tie back to the email that sent the reader there, so results roll up to the send.

No testimonials yet — receipts instead

When a result can’t be measured, your report says “no data” — never an estimate dressed as a fact.

Clicks resolve to named subscribers because the link knows who it was sent to. What happens on a retailer’s checkout page is theirs, not ours — so we tell you what we know, and say so when we don’t. The exception is your own store: connect it, and the sale itself reports back.
