Example: Your affiliate network gives you this link to use: http://www.qqytoqis.com/ais882lsa/aisodoja/2hjf8w Code (markup): I use a jumpscript that uses: http://www.mysite.com/recommends/productX Code (markup): .. and 301 redirects visitor upon clicking to 1st URL above. I know many affiliate networks don't mind this... SO MY QUESTION IS..... Does anyone know of any affiliate networks that do NOT allow this? (against TOS)
I don't know of any where that is specifically against the ToS. If there is a network where it is, then I would recommend you NOT work with them -- there are very legitimate reasons to want to hide your traffic sources, not the least of which is the fact that time after time there have been reports of affiliate managers at companies taking peoples' campaign ideas, replicating them, and taking over the niche. This is much more difficult if they don't know how you're getting traffic, of course.
There is no reason for such restrictions. If you find an affiliate program which restricts the 301 redirects it is probably run by some newbie who needs to explain how these links work.
