Added alert system to Affly — now it warns when CTR drops 🚨
Hey everyone 👋
After launching the MVP of Affly last week, I spent a few days polishing the analytics and added a small but powerful feature — performance alerts.
Now, when CTR or EPC suddenly drop, Affly sends a notification —
so affiliates can catch problems early instead of discovering them days later.
This came from my own experience:
one of my links went from 12% CTR to 6% overnight,
and I only noticed it because I was manually watching stats.

Would love feedback — what kind of analytics would you personally want to get alerts for?
This is the kind of feature that shows you're actually using your own product and thinking like an affiliate marketer. Most link shorteners just track clicks and call it a day. The fact that you noticed your own CTR drop and built a solution for it is exactly how the best products get built. For alerts, I'd want to know about unusual traffic patterns too - like sudden spikes that might indicate bot traffic or viral shares.
That’s a great point — unusual spikes are a big one I hadn’t automated yet.
Bot traffic or sudden virality detection could make alerts 10× more useful.
I’ll experiment with that next — thanks for the idea 🙌
Would love to get alerts for hourly/daily/weekly growth!
Great idea, thanks! Will take it work!
And also I’m curious: when you look at your campaigns, which metric do you pay most attention to — CTR, EPC or revenue?
