It would make the links so much cleaner. But CJ probably doesn't like it. Am I Right? Oh and can I use a blog and put hyperlinks? Or do I have to put text links? (so that clickbank can't track them)
Better than tinyurl, which I think looks terrible, is a redirect. just create a file in notepad called yourproduct.html insert this code into it <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 TRANSITIONAL//EN"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <title>Yourproduct</title> <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; url=http://www.youraffiliatelink.com"> </head> <body> </body> </html> save this file in your root directory (or somewhere else) then edit the link on your page to /yourproduct.html then your link that people see when they mouse over the link will read www.yourdomain.com/yourproduct.html this will look a lot cleaner and CJ will not have a problem with this
I'm not sure if there's a problem, but i just think it's fairer on your target audience if they realise you're affiliate marketing... i mean i mouse over a lot of links just to ensure they aren't referal links a lot of the time, since people mask urls etc to prey on those who know less
Yes you can absolutely use tinyurl and I actually recommend it as it will keep you safe from affiliate hijacking.
Or for links you use regularly can create a file, mylink.php and put this in it <?php $url = 'http://ww*.somesite.com/'; header("Location: $url"); exit(); ?> PHP: Then just link to mylink.php
Since CJ code contains both affilaite link as well as img tag for tracking impressions, using html or php redirection will not count the impressions in CJ reports!
