Alright before I go down this path want to see know if this works?

I already know that Facebook does NOT like direct linking of affiliate offers.

So... does doing a URL redirect of affiliate link .. so that instead of linking:
http://www.hoplink.product.com

I use AnyName.com - Web Hosting and Domain Name Registration


WORK??

    Who says FB doesn't like people direct linking? If
    the offer does not go against their ToS then you can
    direct link all day long.

    I'm direct linking a Clickbank offer and a Maxbounty CPA
    offer, with zero problems.

    If you want to direct link, first get a tracker or something like
    pretty link pro so you can mask the URL, then get the web of trust
    plugin and make sure the final offer URL is either grey - which is neutral -
    or green - which is great -

    i.e. venusfactor.com is red, so you can't push it, unless you cloak
    or use bridge page, but sooner or later, you will go down.

      are there some completely free, not trial use, type of tracker which similar as pretty link pro ?
      and also the free versions "web of trust plugin" ?

      thx

      If you're going to use a landing page to ''avoid most trouble''
      then you are promoting something that will get you in trouble ;-)

          You can use the free version of pretty link.

          The WoT plugin is free -- https://www.mywot.com

          What do you want me to advise? I'm just saying that
          if you're going to promote something that ''will get you
          in trouble'' a landing page won't make the cut to keep it
          safe

    I simply redirect a domain to the affiliate link. godaddy gives the option to redirect with a mask, meaning that once somebody opens yourdomain.com in their browser they will still read yourdomain.com instead of affiliatesite.com/?user=blablabla, it masks everything also lets you put custom title to the page.

        Hey,

        Yes and yes. But these are not the typical offers like weight
        loss or skin care.

        One is for a cooking product and the other one is a booking
        offer.

    I wouldn't even risk sending FB traffic by direct linking. You are just putting your account at risk.

    Why not create a landing page/presell page, and save the headache and anxiety.

    There's a ton of landing page creators out there.
