Twitter Bio Links – What’s the Best Approach?

[Crue]

Hey everyone,

During the last Twitter ban wave, a lot of people lost their child accounts because they all had the same links in their bios, effectively exposing their entire bot network.

Has anyone found a workaround for this?
Should we be using link cloakers, or is that unnecessary?

Thanks in advance!

Just buy a domain on namecheap and put it on hosting - create 1000+ plus of child website pages with different "names" domain/name1 domain/name2 domain/name3 and you got infinite amounts of URLs

Cloaking will reduce the risk, as the visible link will differ from the actual destination but when everyone starts using the same cloaking service Twitter will catch on (and if you use an obscure domain Twitter can catch that too). So the best approach is probably as @mafi0za302 mentioned which is to purchase cheap domains but if you use the same domain for all links you will be caught anyhow. The safest option is one domain per account + redirect.

Just buy $0.99 domain
Don't redirect the site...just clone it and duplicate the content to the new domain
Each site will be exactly equal, but not a redirection

Use free link tree option and add link on a button

Thanks for the ideas guys

I need multiple profiles (100s if not 1000s) to point to a newsletter sign up page so can't exactly duplicate sites or buy thousands of domains...

Does that mean cloaking is my only real option?

Is there a cheap yet effective cloaking service anyone can recommend?

Thanks!

which bot you are using to manage these accounts?

was using TD but that doesnt work anymore... not convinced on the solution going forward 100%

please let me know if you're aware of a good cloaking option

Thanks

Either you get a domain, a link tree, or cloak the link. Few ways on the top of my head there, and you'll want to use the ones that don't get flagged by Twitter. Not too sure what the updated list of non-flagged cloaker/ link tree is.

any idea how many accounts can refer to the same domain and still be safe? do the child pages essentially redirect to the actual page? (in my case a email signup landing page)

the only issue I have with link tree is it adds another step and materially reduces the sign up rate

I don't think there is a concrete number. It probably depends on multiple factors such as the health of the account as well as potential footprint link between the accounts (such as browser footprints). Using the same link is probably just one factor.

It might still work, but i had the issue recently doing the same thing url/link1 url/link2 and got the 'base' blocked

wow ok - so is cloaking the only real solution here? (since url gets busted, link tree reduces sign up rate)

Any good/cheap cloaking option?

just make this links landers to the offer and shorten each of url/link1 url/link2 in bitly easy as that

yes, but sometimes the actual url / domain gets flagged
