## Description

Easily set up links like /hop/google/ to redirect users to www.google.com. This 
can be useful in masking your affiliate links.

If your affiliate link needs to change, you can just change the HOP values in a 
single place, without having to search your site for outdated links.

## Installation

 1. Upload plugin to your wordpress installation plugin directory
 2. Activate plugin through the `Plugins` menu in WordPress
 3. Look at the configuration screen (found under `Tools` in the WordPress menu)
 4. Supply a Name and URL for each redirect you want to use.
 5. You’re done!

## FAQ

### What’s the Base URL?

If you use `hop`, then your redirection links will look like this:
 http://www.site.
com/hop/name

### What’s a Hop Name?

The Hop Name appears after the Base URL in the redirection link. This tells the 
Link Hopper which destination URL to redirect to.

### Does this include statistics and click-tracking?

No, not at this time. It’s a simple link-redirect script.
