I am building squidoo lenses and hubpages and such and I know I need to cloak my links. Does anyone know of a good reliable place I could use to do this?

    Try Bit.ly - bit.ly, a simple url shortener

    The site keeps the sats like the number of clicks etc.

    If you know how to edit (not difficult) it you can also cloak and redirect using your .htaccess file. You can also use php redirect.

    If you are using Wordpress check this plugin here - WordPress › Link Cloaking Plugin WordPress Plugins


    Creating a simple PHP Redirect which will also cloak your link

    Open Notepad and copy-paste the following code in it. Save it as redirect.php or goto.php or anything with a .php extension. Replace the example URL (http://www.yoursite.com/example.html) with your destination url. Upload the file to your server. Point your link or anchor text to the redirect.php file.

    Code:
     
<?php
header( 'Location: http://www.yoursite.com/example.html' ) ;
?>
    There are several other ways but I hope this will at least get you started.
