Help with altering URLs.

    Hi Everyone.

    I am wondering if there is a way to ammend the URL you are given from the afiliate network (i.e. in CJ http://www.dpbolw.net/click - xxxxxxxxx-xxxxx) to using the merchants actual URL, perhaps for a particular product or their home page (i.e. www.merchantx.com/ProductXYZ?uniqueparameters&thatshowmyafilliatedetails).

    Just to summarise (cause I don't think I've been clear) I don't want to use the given URL. I want to use the merchants URL so I can use specific landing pages.

    Thanks in advance.

    You must have to use the tracking links provided by the affiliate network which will track your leads/sales properly.

    You can change the URL, but you won't get any commission and I don't think that is what you want.
    The only thing you can do is to try to hide it a little, by cloaking, redirecting, images, javascript 'mouseover' tricks , etc ...
    But if I was you, I wouldn't worry about the CJ URL.
