Redirect to A Specific Product?

    I want to promote a CJ product by sending the user to specific product page but the merchant doesn't have individuals links created for products...

    Is there some way of getting around this e.g. some variable you can add to the affiliate url so it redirects to a specific page/product?

    Cheers C.

    I've been told to look for this...

    [​IMG]

    ...but my merchant links don't have that feature.

    I'm guessing some form of redirect/jump page is what I'd need... where the cookie code is loaded using <img src="url" width="1" height="1" border="0"/>, then a redirect to the specific page using a meta refresh.

    Is there a better way?

    This is what is called "deep linking" if the merchant does not allow it then I am pretty sure that you are not allowed to do it. ie you can only go to pages that they provide links for.

    Aah. Ok.

    They are a new merchant, so maybe just not aware of the options yet... in any case probably best if I get in touch with them.

    Cheers
