Categories & Tags
Keep every link organized as you scale.
As your link library grows, organization becomes essential. Categories let you group related links — by product, campaign, platform, or theme — so everything stays tidy and easy to find.
Better still, FIFO rolls up clicks by category, so you can see which themes or campaigns drive the most traffic, not just individual links.
What you get
- Group links by product, campaign, or theme
- Up to 10 tags per link, with a tag filter
- Select many links to tag, move, disable, or enable at once
- Per-category click and link totals
- Custom category slugs on Maker Pro
- Public category pages to share collections
Turn a pile of links into a tidy library
Hundreds of one-off short links quickly become unmanageable. Categories give your catalog structure: a creator might group links by "Gear", "Courses", and "Sponsors", while an affiliate marketer might organize by program or season. Finding and updating links becomes fast instead of frustrating.
Each category tracks how many links it contains and how many total clicks it has earned, so the organization doubles as reporting.
Tags for everything a category can’t say
A link belongs to one category, but it can carry up to 10 tags: the sites it appears on, the season it is for, the partner behind it. Filter your links by any tag, or click a tag on a link to see everything that shares it.
When a batch of links needs the same change, select them and add or remove tags, move them to another category, or disable and re-enable them in one step. Every change lands in each link’s history, so a bulk edit can be undone link by link.
Category-level insight and sharing
Rolling clicks up by category answers questions individual links cannot: which product line is most popular, which campaign theme performs best, or which sponsor sends the most engaged traffic. Categories also power public pages, so you can share a whole curated collection with one link.
Perfect for
- Creators organizing gear, courses, and sponsor links
- Affiliates grouping links by program or season
- Sharing a curated collection as one public page
- Reporting performance by product line or theme
Frequently asked questions
- How do categories work in FIFO?
- Categories let you group related links together. Each link can belong to a category, and FIFO tracks the number of links and total clicks per category so you can measure performance by theme, product, or campaign.
- How many categories can I create?
- The Free plan includes 3 categories, Builder includes 20, and Maker Pro includes unlimited categories. Maker Pro also unlocks custom category slugs.
- What is the difference between a category and a tag?
- Each link sits in exactly one category, which also gives it a place on your public pages. Tags are private labels: a link can have up to 10, and you can filter and bulk-edit by them. Use categories for how your audience browses, and tags for how you manage.
- Can I share a category publicly?
- Yes. Every category can have its own clean public page, which is a great way to share a curated collection of links with your audience.
