    Can someone tell me how to hide my affiliate links so it looks like a real site verses all the key information when a client scrolls their mouse over the link?

    I know I'll get alot more click throughs

    What you'll get instead of more clicks is a raging mob of angry villagers with torches, pitchforks, and some kerosene. After teh googles ban your page. After your page doesn't show up on search engines anymore, the only thing to get you clicks will indeed be only what people see (human visitors). So make them interesting instead. People click on links that look interesting, even if they're long.

    Nice link, ohmannomma.

    If I were you I would replace the affiliate link pointing to a php file (hosted at your server) which contains the following content

    <?
header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
header( "Location: http://www.myaffiliatelink.com" );
?>
    Code (markup):
    After clicking onto the lick they will be redirected immediately to the affiliate link.
