Double Meta Refresh Cloaking



Don't be concerned about this until you start spending serious cash on a campaign and you think you're being skimmed.

The best way to get a solution is to gain an understanding of what can be done by coding it yourself. Why the opposition to PHP? It's a strong tool - It wouldn't hurt you to gain a basic understanding of it by reading some guides on basic PHP programming.

Also, no need to start a new thread like this and link back to the old thread. It clutters up the forum.
 
newbie to affiliate marketing what is the best road take

The OP didn't want a PHP way to do this, but I threw this on the thread in case somebody found it useful.


Step1:Link traffic to this code

PHP:
<?php
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://www.yoursite.com/goto2.php\">";
?>

Step2:Link to this file from the above to your affiliate link

PHP:
<?php
$referer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
if($referer == "")
    {
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://www.affiliate.com/link.php\">";    
    }
else
    {
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://www.yoursite.com\">";    
    }
?>

This will make sure the referrer is blank before sending your traffic through. I found this script somewhere and used it a little while back. A better way of doing it is just by using T202 as others have mentioned above.
