# Release Smartlinks

> Create branded release landing pages with DSP routing, access controls, monetization options, and click analytics to promote artist music releases.

# Release Smartlinks

Release Smartlinks gives your organization a branded destination for each release. Admins can control which links appear, how access works, and how performance is measured across campaigns, DSPs, referrers, and outbound platforms.

## What it enables

| Capability            | Use case                                                                                           |
| --------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Branded release pages | Send listeners to one clean page instead of many platform links.                                   |
| DSP routing           | Show Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, YouTube Music, and other configured destinations.               |
| Admin priority rules  | Organization-level allowed links, blocked links, and ordering override user preferences.           |
| User controls         | Artists and team members can choose visible links inside the admin-approved set.                   |
| Analytics             | Track page views, outbound clicks, referrers, UTM campaigns, device mix, and per-link performance. |

## Access and monetization

| Mode                  | Behavior                                                                                           |
| --------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Free for all          | Every eligible user can publish smartlinks without extra release-level payment.                    |
| Membership or package | Access is granted when the release owner has the configured membership or Pay-Per-Release package. |
| Base fee              | A release-level fee is required when no package grants access.                                     |
| Denied                | Users cannot publish smartlinks until access is granted by the organization rules.                 |

## Recommended setup

1. Decide whether smartlinks are included for all users, tied to packages, or sold per release.
2. Configure organization-level platform rules before inviting users to edit links.
3. Keep the most important DSPs at the top of the page.
4. Use UTM parameters for campaigns so analytics remain useful.
5. Review click distribution after each campaign and remove low-value destinations when they clutter the page.

## Analytics guidance

Use outbound clicks as the primary performance signal. Page views show traffic volume, but per-platform clicks show where listeners actually go. For campaign analysis, compare referrers, UTM sources, top links, and device behavior together.
