Hi, I have a domain set to redirect to my hoplink for one of my clickbank products I'm promoting. The domain is www. xxxxxxxxx.info, which redirects through my hoplink to www. xxxxxxxxx.com. Is it possible to get google to be able to index this site? Obviously when I try to verify it using Analytics or Webmaster Tools, it can't, because it just redirects to another domain. If I take off the redirect, verify my Analytics and Webmaster Tools, then set the redirect back, can it still track my stats?
It will be difficult to get google to index you site due to having no content related with the domain name. It would be better for you to set up a landing page using your domain, collect emails by giving them a helpful freebie so you could market similar products to visitors in the future and then send them to your hotlink. This way you have the opportunity to create content related to your affiliate product and build up a list.
No. The redirect simply forwards one domain to another. The domain that the redirect was pointed to would be indexed, however. The same holds true for individual Web pages and other files.
