Hi in this blog I intend to demonstrate how to cloak your affiliate links.

What I'm talking about is taking a link like this http://instantblogsubscribers.com/vip/RestoreLife and turning into something like this http://123restorelife.com/ViralBloging@itsBest

Okay there is one essential thing you will need and that is a website of your own and not a replicated site. If you haven't got your own website yet then I highly recommend  Namecheap.com - Cheap domain name registration, renewal and transfers - Free SSL Certificates - Web Hosting and for your web hosting you can get that for free by utilizing the TWR system.

Once you have your website name and hosting sorted here is what you need to do.

  1. Create a new folder in your root directory. The name of the folder is what people will see in your link so make sure you name it to something relative to what you are promoting.
  2. Then create a file within the new folder and name it index.html
  3. Then copy this code and paste it into the index.html file you created within the new folder
    1. <html><head> 
      <meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">
      <meta http-equiv='refresh' content='0; url=Put your Affiliate link here'> 
      </head>
      </html> 
  4. After you have done step 3 you are set. All you have to do is post your new link http://yoursite.com/newfolder to the site you want to advertise on.
Enjoy cloaking
