How do you deal with expiring Affiliate codes?

    Do you have a system in place to deal with expiring Affiliate codes, so that you don't continue to run the html code in your website, PPC campaigns, email lists, etc. after they've expired.

    I know Adwords will let you set how long to run the ad until, and obviously emails sent out from an email list are timely, but when placing Affiliate codes on your websites what type of system do you have in place to make sure you stop running the campaign when it's expired.

    Do you have a custom coded affiliate ad rotator?
    Do you use a purchased ad rotator?
    or something else...

    It would be great to hear how you deal with this problem.

    Thanks,
    d.

    I'd also like to know the solution to this. Usually, affiliate links of products taken from CJ expire after some time. Haven't been able to figure out how to get rid of them.

    Use some free url redirector service.

    When your affiliate link expires, just put in new links in the redirector.
    Then all your links in forums, emails etc continue to work :)
