By hosting a simple website with Dialect’s blink client, you guarantee that users can still view and interact with your blink. This step is crucial for maintaining a seamless experience and preventing frustration.

​
Scaffolds

Screenshot from blink scaffold monad landing page The recommended way to create this fallback website is by using our scaffolds. These are ready-to-go NextJS projects, pre-loaded with all the required configurations and dependencies. With scaffolds, you can skip the tedious setup and jump straight into coding.

​
Interstitials

This approach provides the same core functionality (displaying your blink reliably) but with trade-offs: You can’t set custom fallback images for social previews, and the URL gets lengthy. To implement it, prepend the interstitial link to your blink endpoint like this: 
<INTERSTITIAL_LINK>/?action=solana-action:<LINK_TO_YOUR_BLINK_PROVIDER>
For example, here’s a Jupiter swap blink from USDC to SOL: 
https://dial.to/?action=solana-action%3Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fjupiter.dial.to%2Fswap%2FUSDC-SOL
Note: Always URL-encode your link after the solana-action: parameter to avoid breakage. You can test this by pasting the full URL into a browser to confirm it resolves correctly.
