Hi guys,
Do you use affiliate link cloaker programs? Which one is the best & free? I’m looking for something with some minimum stats and easy to use piece of software.
It is time to protect ourselves form hi-jackers
Does anybody have some good experience since he started to use that little trick?
Cheers
hijackers? paranoia
imo, put the affil links in as a redirect in your .htaccess file, then link to em using nofollow so no juice is passed to them.
eg yourdomain.com/casino.com redirects to your affil link for that particular casino
means you only have to change your affiliate links in 1 place if they need to be updated.
I’m also looking at ways to cloak affiliate links from within the banner HTML code that is supplied. I have noticed that Rewards Affiliates have managed this, but I’m not sure what code I need to add for the rest of the banners to ensure they still link to my affiliate ID.
If there is a way to do this globally on the site, even better.
[HTML]A Poker Site. [/HTML]
I like the following though:
[HTML]
A Poker Site. [/HTML]so you link to /thesite.com [on your own server] which is a htaccess redirect to thesite.com?myaffilID=123… end-result: if the affil url changes at some juncture, you just have to edit 1 line in your .htaccess file.
note that browsers w/ javascipt off will just go to site.com without your affil reference….
HTH
I found a way of doing it using onMouseDown and changing the href. The problem I have is my site is aspx based and it’s not happy with htaccess.
