How to use Monoli

From signing up to publishing, your author page, design and click stats. Follow it top to bottom and your first page is live in ten minutes — from your phone if you like.

1. START

Get started

With a Google or Apple account, signing up takes a minute.

  1. Log in

    Press "Start for free" and log in with Google or Apple. First-timers get an account right away. No credit card needed.

    Continue with Google

    Continue with Apple

  2. Choose your ID

    It becomes your author page URL monoli.me/@ID, and every page URL takes the form /@ID/…. 3–20 characters: lowercase letters, digits and underscores.

    Your ID

    monoli.me/@mia_finds

    It cannot be changed once set. You can choose it later in your profile, but publishing a page requires an ID.

  3. Register the site with your affiliate networks

    In each network you use (Amazon Associates, Rakuten Affiliate and so on), register monoli.me as a site where you place links. Links on an unregistered site can void your commissions or get your account suspended.

    Site to register

    https://monoli.me/@mia_finds

    Every network does it differently. Look for "Sites", "Site information", "Add a website" or similar.

2. CREATE

Create a page

One page per product. Start from "New page" in the dashboard.

  1. Name the product

    One line with the product name. That alone already makes a page.

    Product name

    Wireless Earbuds XYZ-200

  2. Add a photo, a note and tags

    Upload a photo you took or prepared yourself, up to 2 MB (there is no feature to pull product images from Amazon or elsewhere). Use the note for your impressions or why you recommend it. Tags group pages on your author page.

    PhotoOptional · up to 2 MB

    NoteMy favorite commute purchase

    TagGadgets

    What you type shows up immediately in the preview beside (or below, on a phone) the form, so you can check the result before saving.

4. PUBLISH

Publish and share the URL

Press "Publish" and you get a URL. That URL is all you paste.

  1. Publish

    Check the content and press "Publish". With unsaved changes it becomes "Save and publish". Published pages are marked "Live".

    Publish

    Your URL

    https://monoli.me/@mia_finds/k7f3q2xw

  2. Share on social media or your blog

    "Copy URL" and paste it into posts, your bio or a video description. On a phone, "Share" hands it straight to your social apps. On X or LINE it shows as a card with your photo.

  3. Edit later

    Swapping links or changing the photo and note works while the page is live. The URL stays the same and changes go live within about a minute of saving. "Unpublish" turns it back into a draft; deleting removes the page, photos and click stats together.

5. AUTHOR PAGE

Author page

monoli.me/@ID lists your published pages automatically. It is the one link for your social bio.

  • Profile

    Photo, name, bio and up to 8 social or website links. Paste a social URL and the icon appears. Set it up under "Profile" in the dashboard.

  • Blocks

    Below the profile you can arrange link buttons, image banners, headings, text and dividers in any order, and place the product list where you like. Link buttons: 3 on Free, 5 on Pro.

  • Layout and order

    Six layouts: List / Grid / Bento / Photo grid / Horizontal scroll / Ranking. Reorder pages with ↑↓ in the page list — that also sets ranking positions. New pages go to the top.

  • Sections by tag

    Tag a page and the author page groups pages with the same tag under a heading. Untagged pages come last under "Other".

Not indexed by search engines by default

Anyone with the URL or a social link can open it. To have your author page appear in Google and other search results, turn on "Search engines" on the Pro plan (indexing takes the search engine some days; product pages are never indexed).

6. DESIGN

Design

Author page and product pages share one design. Change it under "Profile" → "Design" — free on every plan.

  1. Pick a template

    93 templates, grouped by style. One tap changes colors, background, pattern, font and photo frame together. Your layout and disclosure position stay as they are.

    Stylish11

  2. Customize in detail

    Switch to "Customize in detail" to change palette, accent, background (solid, gradient or image), pattern, card look, text color, font, photo shape and frame, and social link style one by one. You can also tweak after picking a template.

The disclosure: you choose only where it goes

Every published page shows "This page contains affiliate links." (Top of the card / Top of the page / Above the buttons / list / Below the profile / Bottom of the card). To comply with advertising rules the wording cannot be changed or removed. Pages with Amazon or eBay links also get the statement each program requires, automatically.

7. STATS

Click stats

Which store button was pressed, and when. Shown at the bottom of the page editor.

  1. Per store, per day

    Choose 7, 30 or 90 days. You get a daily bar chart and totals per store (data older than 90 days is not kept).

    7d30d90d

    Total128

    Amazon 71 / eBay 42 / Rakuten 15

  2. Readers are not tracked

    We only count "which store button on which page was pressed". No IP addresses or browser details are stored, and no cookies identify readers. Repeat clicks by the same person are counted as clicks.

    Check conversions (purchases) in your network's dashboard. Monoli counts up to the click.

8. TROUBLE

Troubleshooting

I see "This domain is not allowed for this store"

The store you chose doesn't match the URL's domain. Pick the store again, or for an unsupported site choose "Other" and name the button. Shorteners such as bit.ly, IP addresses and localhost URLs cannot be registered.

The "Publish" button is disabled

Page URLs take the form /@ID/…, so you need to set your ID in the profile first. Once it is set, you can publish right away.

I edited the page but the live page hasn't changed

Changes take about a minute to go live. If it still hasn't changed, reload the browser. Cards on social media (image and title) are cached by the platform and may take a while to update.

My network isn't crediting conversions

Make sure monoli.me is registered as a site with the network. Monoli never rewrites links, so conversions are credited exactly as the network's link dictates. Approval rules and cut-off dates differ per network.

I can only create 5 pages

That is the Free plan limit. Pro raises it to 200 pages. Switch under "Settings" in your account; cancel any time.

I want more than one product on a page

That is a Pro feature: up to 3 products per page, each with its own photo, links and note (for comparisons and "use together" sets). If Pro lapses, only the first 1 stay visible.

I want to change my ID

IDs cannot be changed once set, because every URL you shared contains it. If you really must, delete your account and start over (all pages, images and click stats are lost).

My photo won't upload

Images up to 2 MB in JPEG, PNG, WebP and similar formats. Shrink large photos first, e.g. with "Reduce size" on your phone. Profile photos and cover images are cropped before upload, so the original can be large.

I want to delete my account

At the bottom of "Settings" in your account. Pages, images and click stats are deleted immediately and cannot be restored. Cancel the Pro plan first.

Now, make your first page.

You can always come back here. "Guide" is in the top-right corner of the dashboard.
