How To Cloak Affiliate Links Using Subfolders

by blogging23517

Hi All,

I lost a bookmark that showed me how to cloak a affiliate link
that looked like he copied the whole web page & added it
to a subfolder.

How do I do this, it really looked like he copied
the whole sales page & just added it to his site.

This way looks more professional & also looks
like we own the affiliate product.

Any ideas.

    Sounds like a framed redirect. Most of the affiliate networks like Click Bank, CJ, et al. do not allow frame link cloaking in their TOS. A simple rediret is better. Below is the info.

    Code:
    <HTML><HEAD>
 <META NAME="description"
 CONTENT="http://www.YourSite.com/Recommends/">
 <META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="">
 </HEAD>
 <FRAMESET border=0 rows="100%,*" frameborder="no"
 marginleft=0 margintop=0 marginright=0 marginbottom=0>
 <frame
 src="http://YourAffiliateLinkHere.com"
 scrolling=auto frameborder="no" border=0 noresize>
 <frame topmargin="0" marginwidth=0 scrolling=no marginheight=0
 frameborder="no" border=0 noresize>
 </FRAMESET>
 </HTML>

    if you are driving traffic to the site, I do this with the meta refresh tags

    I place a index.html into a keyword rich folder and when someone comes to that page it redirect to the affiliate link

    no affiliate links showing when they click your link

    Amy,

    I have used this tool extensively as well, but lately have found that some pages have difficulty loading in Firefox when I have cloaked it using this tool.

    Just a word to the wise...
