The following example shows the power and simplicity of the Link Gateway API. This specific example uses the API 'Magic Code'. Magic Code only requires that you copy and paste 6 lines of code into the footer of your web site to automatically convert standard URLs into 'link.gs' URLs.

Click on the SHOW API RESULTS and then hover over a link. You'll notice in the status bar that the link has been converted in real-time to a 'http://link.gs/XXXX' formated hyperlink. You can also click on the link and there will be no Link Gateway banner across the top.
