Hi... Great WF members.

I am an affiliate marketer. I am seeking a desperate answer to a very critical issue. I want to promote an affiliate offer by organic search engine traffic(SEO). But i don't want to put the affiliate link directly on my landing page in order to make my landing page look more editorial in nature to search engines.

Normally, the appearance of a query string like Website Hosting - Mysite.com? aid=0099845 completely reduces inbound links and can affect ranking.

I tried using an invisible affiliate link generator provided by my Affiliate Merchant. I got a javascript code to use on my webpage. It was meant to be placed at the bottom of my webpage.

However, we all know that seacrh engines don't like javascript and this could be a major problem in getting indexed and ranking high in the engines.

So, i am looking for an alternative that could help solve this problem with affiliate links, but which will not be javascript.

I would greatly appreciate WF thoughts and wisdom on this.
Thanks everyone.

Hm? What decent sites don't use JavaScript these days?
 
If you don't know how to write the PHP to do this yourself, install Prosper202. They make this pretty easy. Tracking is always a plus too :).

If you think putting javascript on your page will hurt your ranking, you don't know shit about SEO.
 
Just create a text file with Notepad, put this in it:

Code: 
<?php
    header( 'Location: http://www.yoursite.com/new_page.html' ) ;
 ?>
Then save it as redirect.php (or whatever you want to call it) then upload to your server. Voila!
 
If you are completely frickin' useless with code then:

1. Use Wordpress
2. Google wordpress plugins and cloaking
3. Follow instructions
 
Waoh! thank you all for your thoughtful contribution. It's fantastic and i really appreciate everyone for taking out time to leave meaningful contributions here. Thanks people
 
redirect to mystupidafflink.php

PHP: 
<?php  

//$url is your affiliate url link  

 $url = "http://www.myafflink.com" . $_GET['SubID']  
?>  
 
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"  
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">  
<html>  
<head>  
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3;url=<?php echo $url; ?>"/>  
</head>  
<body>  
<div style="height:300px;line-height:300px;text-align:center">  
<center><a href="<?php echo $url; ?>">JavaScript is not enabled. Click here to continue to offer.</a></center>  
</div>  
  
<script type="text/javascript">  
<!--  
window.location = "<?php echo $url; ?>"  
//-->  
</script>  
</body>  
</html>

that should work but I don't know, I just copied and pasted that from some site.
