    In this thread you can post questions and advices about marketing digital products.


    I'll start.

    Do you think is ethical to hide your affiliate link with a redirection method like tinyurl and then post it on a platform, like wordpress or forums, which don't accept clickbank?

    ? Your post in confusing. What you mean with "dont accept clickbank"?

    But i wouldnt post hoplinks but use forum comments rather for real sites to rank them in Google. Its called "link building".

    you can do whatever you want, but on this thread you can do only what i say.


    For example to post a link in your signature on a forum that don't allow links from clickbank.

    I think you know the answer. Just because you hide the link it is still an affiliate link - so what you are asking is 'is it ethical to do something i shouldn't but disguise it?'.... hmmmm

    Do I think it's unethical? No.

    Unethical to me is something that hurts or negatively affects someone. Nobody is getting hurt by you cloaking an affiliate link and if it's actually a good product, you might be doing someone a favor if it helps them.

    Is it against the rules of the forum and likely to get you banned though? Yes.

    As George said a few posts above, just use that signature link to link back to your own landing page where you can pre-sell the person there. At the same time you're getting a link back to your page.

    Charming. Just hope everyone doesn't think the same. If no-one has any ethics in what they are selling then that will end up giving everyone a bad name. Thanks.

    Doesn't make a difference...


    A cloaked affiliate link is a cloaked affiliate link whether you hide it with a PHP redirect, domain forwarding, or something like Tiny URL. I still don't feel it's unethical.

    Now if you cloaked a link and sent them to a page that gave them a virus, that would be unethical. But a product, no.

    Just my opinion, others may feel different but that's why you started this thread.
