STEP 1: Generate Your Kingfin Tracking Link

2 / 9
Log in to the Kingfin dashboard: Access the affiliate portal and open the "Marketing Materials" or "Link Generation" menu.
Generate your referral link: Select the landing page URL (e.g., the OlympTrade account-opening page) and generate a tracking URL with your affiliate ID embedded.
Copy the link and paste it into your content: Copy the generated URL and paste it into your blog, note, X, or other content. Account openings through this URL count as conversions.
Why tracking links matter
Always use a tracking link with your affiliate ID embedded. Without it, conversions won't be credited to you even if they happen.
Verify the link works
Access the generated link in incognito mode and confirm that a click registers in your Kingfin dashboard before publishing.

Why "Just Pasting a Link" Won't Convert

3 / 9
😐
① The reason isn't clear: The reader doesn't understand "why I should sign up now." You need to explicitly state specific benefits like "free account opening — start earning RevShare today."
😰
② Not enough trust: The reader wonders "has this person actually used it?" Add personal experience, screenshots, and specific numbers to build credibility — a prerequisite before the reader hits the register button.
😵
③ The link is hard to find or unclear: Text links are easy to miss. Simply switching to a button-style CTA often doubles or triples CTR. Use background color, text color, and size for visibility.
💡 The biggest reason for no conversions isn't "whether the link exists" — it's "whether you've created a state where the reader wants to register." Both content quality and CTA design are required.

3 Core Rules of Link Placement

4 / 9
📍
Rule ①: Place in 3 spots per article (top, middle, end): Top = fast lane for readers who already know they want it. Middle = readers who got interested while reading. End = high-intent readers who made it all the way through. One spot means large opportunity loss.
🎯
Rule ②: Place naturally within context: Put the CTA where it flows naturally — e.g., "To start FX affiliate marketing, registering with Kingfin is the first step." An abrupt link causes readers to bounce. The link should connect to the surrounding text.
✍️
Rule ③: Specific CTA copy: "Here" and "click for details" are the worst CTA copy. Write specifically what happens after registering, like "Register with Kingfin for free and start earning RevShare today →"
💡 Following these 3 rules alone has been shown to increase CTR by 1.5–2x in many cases. Use these as a checklist every time you write a new article.

Platform-by-Platform: Optimal Link Placement

5 / 9
PlatformBest placement spotsCTA copy example
Blog (WordPress etc.)Lead paragraph, under H2 headings, end-of-article button"Register with Kingfin for free and start earning RevShare today →"
noteFirst half introduction, bold text links within article, final paragraph"▶ Register with Kingfin for free (3 min)"
X (Twitter)Link at end of post, follow-up link in replies"Details & registration: link in bio ↓ #Kingfin"
YouTubeTop of video description, pinned comment, in-video text overlay"Register via the Kingfin link in the description below"
💡 On X, the most important thing is placing your Kingfin referral link in your profile URL. Every new follower adds to your potential click pool — always set your profile link.

Writing CTA Copy That Raises CVR

6 / 9
❌ Bad CTA examples (low CVR)
"Here"
"Click here for details"
"Kingfin →"
"Register"

→ Unclear what happens after registering. No urgency. Fails to motivate reader action.
✅ Good CTA examples (high CVR)
"Register with Kingfin for free and start earning RevShare today →"
"Complete in 3 minutes — sign up now →"
"Join Kingfin affiliate for free →"

→ Free, time required, and post-registration benefits are clear — easier to drive action.
💡 CTA button design matters too. A white background with a gold button (#c9a84c) + black text has high visibility and matches Kingfin's brand colors — boosting trust.
7

Using Sub-IDs to Identify Conversion Sources

7 / 9
🔍
What is a sub_ID: A parameter added to your tracking link that identifies which page or CTA generated each conversion. Add "?sub1=○○&sub2=○○" to your Kingfin affiliate link.
⚙️
Setup examples: Blog article link → ?sub1=blog&sub2=article_review
X post link → ?sub1=x&sub2=post_cta
YouTube link → ?sub1=youtube&sub2=desc_link
📊
Integration with GA4: Combining with UTM parameters in GA4 lets you tie session sources to Kingfin conversions. You'll clearly see "which content generates the most conversions" — making improvement priorities obvious.
💡 Without sub_IDs, you can't tell which articles are generating conversions. Setup cost: ~1 minute per link. Getting into the habit from day one dramatically improves the accuracy of your PDCA cycle.

FAQ — Link Placement & Funnel Design

8 / 9
Q
Do Kingfin affiliate links expire?
A: No, they're permanent. A tracking link issued once continues to work indefinitely. That said, Kingfin's program terms may change, so check your dashboard periodically.
Q
Can I use the same link across multiple sites and SNS accounts?
A: Yes. But if you want to identify conversion sources, it's strongly recommended to use different sub_IDs per platform. Using the same link everywhere makes it impossible to know where conversions originated.
Q
Can I use image banner links?
A: Yes. Image banners in various sizes are available from the "Marketing Materials" or "Banners" section in the Kingfin dashboard. Set your tracking link on the banner and paste it into your article.
Q
How many links can I place per article?
A: No hard limit in the terms, but 3–5 is appropriate. Too many looks spammy and damages reader trust. Use 3 spots (top, middle, end) as the base and add more only where relevant.
