Help Needed: 404 Error on First Boost Link Received

·

Hi, I got offered my first boost, however the link I was provided has a 404 page doesn't exist banner across the top. I am copy/pasting from the direct link but the link itself seems incorrect. I land on the website of the newsletter who offered me the boost, but I have the 404 banner at the top. Can anyone advise?

    That means, the subscribers have to subscribe using your link. So once any new subscribers subscribe to you link, the new boost offer is going to pop-up as recommendations and when they subscribe to it too that’s when it counts Understood?

    Yes I think so. You mean that nobody uses that link expect via a recommendation pop-up? If so, why do I have a direct copy/paste feature if the link creates the 404 when used directly?

    Okay thanks. So basically just ignore the copy/paste and let beehiiv automatically recommend?
