CREATING YOUR LINKS đ
Ready to share your must-have products or favorite sales? Create your link(s) using the steps below.
PRO TIP: Scroll to the bottom for a 1-minute video tutorial.
- Log into the Howl dashboard via:
- Desktop/mobile browser (open here)
-
- Howl Creator App (open here)
-
- Chrome Extension (open here)
- In your dashboard, navigate to âCreate Linksâ under âMy Productsâ. On Step 1, you can paste up to 40 URLs from any brands on Howlâs platform. Some suggestions:
-
- Your dashboard will always default to âlockedâ linking, meaning your link will directly connect your audience to the exact retailer or brand you've entered in the link creation process.
- Example: If youâve opted into a performance bonus for a specific retailer (eg. Target), make sure to leave this setting alone so your links direct exclusively to that brand.

- If youâd prefer to create a âdynamicâ link, you can toggle on the âDynamic Linkâ option. This setting allows you to maximize your earnings by automatically redirecting you to the retailer with the highest commission rate and in-stock product.
- Your dashboard will always default to âlockedâ linking, meaning your link will directly connect your audience to the exact retailer or brand you've entered in the link creation process.
- On Step 2, youâll be able to double check that your links are loading properly. Hereâs what to look for:
-
- Links that are monetizable will show a checkmark icon.
- Links that are broken or non-monetizable will show an exclamation point icon.
- On Step 3, youâll have the option to add your freshly created links to a new or existing Post. âPostsâ are how your links are organized and allow you to see what content is driving engagement. You can select from the following options:
-
- Use the âSearch for a Postâ field to add to an existing post.
- Use the â+ Create a Postâ button to create a new post.
- Posts are not required in order to create links, but they are a useful way to organize and track the effectiveness of your product recommendations.
- On Step 4, youâll find your original product links converted into your monetizable Howl links. Copy those links, and start sharing with your audience!
