Direct Link Help

Josh,

What do you mean that it is wrong? Do you mean that they have refused it because it is too different from the actual URL?

kaden,

Your landing page url and the display URL have to match up. You can use aff links, but the domain needs to be the same as the display when there is a clickthru.

Hi Josh,

You might have wrote 2 distinctly different urls in the display url field and the landing page url field..

Here is how to do direct linking:

1. Buy a domain from Godaddy.com - get a .info domain if you are on a tight budget. Domain should be closely related to your ad or to what you have to offer.

2. Once you have purchased a domain, go to Domain Manager in your Godaddy.com account.

3. You will see your newly purchased domain there. Check the box next to your domain name to select it and then look at the top and select "forward".

4. Check the box that says "enable forwarding", put in your affiliate link in the "forward to:" field and on the right hand side, select "301 Moved Permanently".

5. Now click on the "Masking" tab and check on the box that says "enable masking". There are 3 fields that you are suppose to field in.

Masked title: Fill in the title that you want. Recommended to include the keywords that you are using.

Masked description Meta tag: Describe what the offer is all about. Include your keywords here as well.

Masked keyword Meta tag: Here is where you put in your keywords seperated by commas.

Once done, click "Ok". It will take a few minutes for the forwarding and masking to take effect.

Hope this helps!
