redirecting is fine as long as your display url is the final url the user sees. I have redirects on all my ads.
Final you mean the first landing page? I wanted this setup PPC AD -> Domain (quick redirect PHP) -> affiliate landing page (x.imp.sdsd) ??
Then yes, you can expect your AdWords CPC rates to skyrocket if you're doing that. This is okay: PPC ad --click--> andyem.com/shortlink --PHP-redirect--> andyem.com/long/link?id=whatever These are not okay: PPC ad --click--> andyem.com/shortlink --PHP-redirect--> jdoqocy.com/click-123 --redirect--> merchantsite.com/product PPC ad --click--> andyem.com/shortlink --PHP-redirect--> merchantsite.com/product
Perfect thx. Im still having trouble with how I'm going to track keywords with adwords. Adcenter Im going stright to the aff link passing the {keyword} but having this extra page will require a bit more code.
