60 day Study Guide --- Link Broken?

by iwillsurvive101 » Thu Mar 22, 2012 6:55 pm
Hi, I am just re-starting my GMAT prep and picking up from where I left earlier. While looking at the 60 day study guide, I noticed that all the links in the emails are broken now.

All the links in the email are now pointing to: https://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/?l=Izq1g& ... Gx73jI7zfg

And it comes back with PAGE NOT FOUND error.

Any idea if the 60 day guide has changed recently???

Thanks for letting me know. The Study Guide hasn't changed recently, but I believe that the email program may have changed. We're looking into the problem.

I'll let you know when I find out more.

Cheers,

Sounds like a re-direct issue from the web hosting company "clicks.aweber.com". Most of the links, on almost all of the 60-Day Study Program are broken.

Thanks for looking into it, let us know when the problem is resolved.

Thanks again.

Hey there,

We no longer use that service for our emails, we've shut it down, so the redirect links don't work anymore. We switched from Aweber to MailChimp. Please sign up for the study guide again, you'll be sent emails via MailChimp now and those links work correctly.

Hi DanaJ

Thanks for clarifying. I don't have 60 days to go for my test date, and I would really like to use the 60-Day-Study-Guide. Is there a way to transform the links from aweber to mailchimp?

I am sure there are lot of other people who are using the current 60-Day-Study guide, and now the links will not work for them. Is there a way to fix it for the old users?

Actually we did the switch in November, I didn't assume anyone would still be using the old guide. I posted a sticky about it here: https://www.beatthegmat.com/help-links-i ... tml#459989
