    Adwords Campaign? I've use Aff I'D's within the campaign when I was still doing PPC. Or are they denying your application? I used to use Azoogle url's and it was fine...

    Hey Tmilli,

    It depends on the route you want to take. Do you want to use software, php code or jscript? Do you want to blank the referer, fake the referer or leave it the way it is? Do you want to cloak your affiliate links?

    personally i use a DMR (Double Meta Refresh) to fake the referer, and i also cloak my links.

    Once you know the answers to those questions i can help you.

    Assuming you have your own hosting account, create a directory on your web root called "likes" or "recommends." In that directory, create another directory that describes your affiliate product. You've seen these things: "http://www.joeblow.come/likes/myproduct."

    Create a file called "index.php" and put the following code in it: <?php
    header("Location: [your affiliate link goes here]");
    ?>

    Upload index.php to your "myproduct" directory. Want to test it? Here's one I just made for one of my sites: "http://askthegeek.us/recommends/SAS."

    That will redirect you to Super Affiliate Secrets. What I like about this method is that it's very simple. The drawback is that it doesn't cloak your affiliate link. But we can do that, too. If you want to cloak, just ask me and I'll tell you how.
