I was wondering if anyone could make a suggestion, or even a recommendation, about what cloaker to use. I've been using MyLinker that came with the Wealthy Affiliate membership, but I'm outta there soon, so besides tinyurl what's the alternative?

Thanx in advance.

    If you have your own website you could use a php redirect, cleans up those horrible long affiliate links and shows it linking to a page on your website which is also better in my opinion than any url shrinkers.

    You should try to avoid any "third party" url shorteners. What if they go out of business, start redirecting, etc... I've seen url shorteners cookie stuff, redirect some traffic to porn, etc...

    If you don't control it - - - you don't control what happens.

    There are a number of url shortener scripts out there - Magic Link Cloaker is mine and it does what you want, ads tracking, and a number of other features.

    You can also just make your own redirect pages using php. Create a .php file :: Example: Redirect.php

    PHP Code:
    <?php
       header
    'Location: http://www.yoursite.com/new_page.html' ) ;
    ?>
