The cloaked code is generated on the 'Sneaky Cloaker Script' site which you then have to copy & paste and upload - the service is totally free as well.
All has been OK up till now, however, when earlier I checked one of my links all the way to the checkout page and to my horror I saw that 'affiliate = none'.
A little while ago, though the situation was back to normal, ie 'affiliate = myaffID'
The 'affiliate = none' situation was on all vendors' cloaked links that I had used this script.
So I was wondering whether anyone knows whether this aff link cloaking service can be relied upon or whether anyone knows of any free alternatives.
Using the <?php
header ("Location: [affID.CBvendor.hop.clickbank.net");...]
?> redirect/cloaker is fine except it offers no versatility in terms of which page you want to send your site visitor to.
Also does link cloaking transgress any of Google's Adsense TOS or harm search engine rankings in any way?
Thanks in advance
Also, it may be the case that your browser was blocking 3rd party cookies. Sneaky cloaker now bypasses third party cookie blocking in IE and probably other browsers as well.
