    Hey Sunyh, we all know what affiliate tags are. Whether or not its a turn off to potential players is a different story. From my personal experience, I feel its better to hide them...

    depends on the visitor and its true some are loking out for them. I personally keep an ey out before clicking on links, even type directly in browser. Not always only when bored haha

    In anycase, I believe there are a good portion of people who do it. Yet many.. MANY dont even know what the heck an affiliate is unless they are doing something online themselves.

    I asked a few friends and they have not got a clue what affiliate codes are and such. they just click and think the code needs to be in the site.

    but i am paranoid so i will hide them all haha soon

    I link to an internal page that has a redirect to the program. I always add a rel="nofollow" tag as well as exclude those redirect pages in the robots.txt . Solves the problem of link weight for the affiliate programs as well as the visible external url in the status bar.

    I don't. It's the choose of the player if he wants to support the site. Most doesn't even know about the links toughhh..

    You guys make a strong point about the ugly URLs, I didn't bother to hide the tags but I'll get my webmaster to check these code suggestions and implement

    This is a really interesting thread. I can see the reason for wanting to hide an affiliate link, especially if its long and ugly. I was thinking about hiding some of my links with a php redirect, but i'm not sure. My eldest son did this and noticed no difference to his income. Guess it can't hurt though, and it probably looks more professional too.
