Protect Your Affiliate Links
I’ve just created a *very* quick video on how to protect your affiliate links using PHP.
I created this video because I was pitched a product today that was selling a program that automatically does this for you – for $19.99 or $19.97 … can’t remember really but, it was near $20.
It is so easy to do this yourself that I created a video for you showing you how. I was appalled actually that someone was trying to *sell* you this information.
So here’s how to protect your affiliate commissions from being stolen the *right* way.
P.S. If you can’t quite see the code that is shown in the video, I’ve placed it below for you.
1. Create a web page on your LINUX server that has a .php extension. Doesn’t matter what you name the page, just so long as you can identify it.
2. Within this new page, strip out all excessive code, the html, the body, etc. You don’t need this extra “stuff” in there for what we’re doing.
3. Put the following code on your web page AS IS with the exception of where it says “your affiliate link here”.
4. Be sure you place the ENTIRE URL including the http:// portion of your affiliate link here.
5. Save the file.
6. Point people to this page when recommending your affiliate products.
