Edge-Engine Redirection Protocol

    Route Campaign Clicks.
    Optimize Every Impression.

    Take full control of your advertising links. Route visitors dynamically by operating system, location criteria, or test multiple landing page weights at the serverless Edge DNS.

    The Science of Delay

    The Engineering Behind Edge Redirect Latency

    Every millisecond added to your redirection path triggers visitor bounce. When users click an advertising link on Facebook, TikTok, or Google, they expect instantaneous response. If the DNS routing takes 300ms to resolve and dispatch HTTP headers, up to **8.5% of mobile users** click away before your landing page starts loading.

    Traditional redirect proxies route requests through centralized cloud instances (e.g. AWS us-east-1). If your visitor resides in Europe, their request must travel across the Atlantic, execute routing logic, and travel back. This geographic distance adds significant latency.

    Linktery keeps redirect rules compact and processes them before navigation. Actual response time depends on network conditions, configured rules, visitor location, and the destination server.

    How Automated Traffic Is Identified

    Crawlers and automated tools can distort campaign reporting. Linktery uses multiple technical signals to flag automation while applying the same policy-compliant destination rules to every legitimate visitor.

    ASN Registry Lookup

    ASN and IP reputation data help identify hosting and datacenter traffic. These signals are combined with other checks to reduce false positives.

    Browser Canvas Challenge

    Headless browser automation environments lack full canvas rendering capabilities. Background JS challenges test device dimensions and WebGL profiles.

    Spoofed UA Inspection

    Scrapers often inject mismatched User-Agent headers (e.g. mobile Chrome header on a desktop Linux host). We run strict format verification.

    Dynamic Dispatch

    High-confidence automation can be blocked or excluded from human analytics. Valid visitors follow the configured geo, device, and split-routing rules.

        // Redirect to clean, static informational page
        return Response.redirect("https://mysite.com/privacy-policy", 302);
      }

      // Check browser attributes for headless engines
      const isAutomation = userAgent.includes("Lighthouse") || userAgent.includes("Googlebot");
      if (isAutomation) {
        return Response.redirect("https://mysite.com/privacy-policy", 302);

    Technical Vocabulary

    Redirection & Traffic Glossary

    Essential terminology for high-volume conversion optimization, traffic routing, and tracking security.

    Autonomous System Number (ASN)

    A unique identifier assigned to global networks on the Internet. Datacenters (like Google Cloud, AWS, or DigitalOcean) have specific ASNs, which allow tracking platforms to distinguish cloud servers from real residential internet service providers (ISPs).

    A/B Split Weight

    The percentage distribution of incoming clicks assigned to multiple destination targets. For instance, a 70/30 split weight sends 70% of visitors to Offer A and 30% to Offer B, facilitating conversion testing.

    Custom Subdomain (CNAME)

    Mapping a custom domain (e.g. `track.company.com`) via CNAME records to run redirection scripts. Using private custom domains prevents campaign tracking paths from sharing public domain footprints.

    Edge Computing Redirection

    Executing redirect calculations on serverless nodes physically close to the visitor. Edge computing bypasses roundtrip network routing to a central host database, reducing redirection latency to under 12ms.
