Default Best ways to hide Aff. Links?

I'm looking for some script resources to hide affiliate links (or redirection).

I'll appreciate if you can post some here.

Thanks
Daniel

You can also set up a directory with your links in it. I do this but really don't see a lot of difference it clicks from links with and without my link showing.

If you make a directory say... "recommends" then make a php script with your tag in it, like http://pokersite.com and name it pokersite.php and save it in that directory. Then your link would be http://mysite.com/recommends/pokersite.php, your visitor clicks the lionk and it goes to the directory, finds the file and attaches your tag, it takes a second for the redirect but it is is smooth.

While you may not see a direct benefit in terms of the number of clicks when cloaking and not cloaking you do get the added benefit of anonymity. This prevents malicious affiliates (nobody here I'm sure ) from screwing with you. It also makes updating links in the future a breeze. You only have to update on php file rather than every link throughout your site...what a headache! If a program that you promote, ie scaredy cat casinos from last week, decide to change their url then you only have about 1 minute of updating to do instead of hours.

Here's what I do. I have a separate redirect page for all affiliate links.

Here's a page I have for VegasRed Casino for example called vegasred.php
PHP Code:
<?php
    header
("Location: http://banner.vegasred.com/cgi-bin/redir.cgi?id=N&member=XXXXXXXXXXX"); 
?>
I have all links for VegasRed pointing to this vegasred.php page (with a rel="nofollow").

As Potsie says, when you want to change all the casino links you only have to go to one page.

Hi guys!

Are those redirects or how do they work? I used to use a redirect script but I was told that Google wasn't to fond of redirects!

PHP Code:
<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFR**' content='0; url=

http://www.chilipoker.com/english/play-online-poker-bonus?ref=%&^&^&1'
>
</
head
Regards.

Blair.H

I recommend fastclick as well.

All links are stored in a database, and there are stats to go along with it as well.

Like others have said, changing links is as simple as logging in to the fast click backend and changing the link one time.
