Hi Warriors,

Need some help here with PHP redirect link.

I've been using PHP to redirect my affiliate link.

<?php header ('Location: myaffiliatelink');?>

Right now, I am trying to add nofollow code to my PHP redirect affiliate link but unaware of how to do it.

Does anybody know how to add a nofollow code to PHP redirect affiliate link?

Thanks

    You cannot add NOFOLLOW to a PHP redirect!

    NOFOLLOW is only associated with anchor tags <a> in HTML

    If you want to stop search engines giving value to your affiliate links, then make the link a 302 links. This means its temporary.

    So something like this will work :

    <?php header('Location: http://some-affiliate-link.com',302); ?>

    Hope this helps
