Domain Re-Directs and the New Marketer

Affiliate programs are the most popular choice of making money online for the new internet marketer and many old ones too. However, they're so common that most people recognize an affiliate link and are less likely to click on one because of the selfish notion that they might be contributing to someone else's success. But that's another story.

I want to show you how to overcome this problem while looking like a pro.

Take a look at the following examples. Each are affiliate URL's. But 2 and 3 are 'masked'; you don't know that they're affiliate addresses or links.

1. www.detectiveagents.com/34251/aff?=nanna

2. www.traffic-magnet.net/morevisitors.html

3. www.eclipsedomainservices.com

It should not matter which link your visitors click if they are compelled to click to find out more information. However, human nature says that we are guided by our emotions. Therefore, each link may portray a different meaning to your visitors.

Here's how to make your affiliate links more credible and acceptable to your visitors.

Typically #2 is the most widely used and is very easy to put into place using a redirect script on your own website or domain.

You simply create a new file on your domain server, name it(ie:"morevisitors.html"), copy and paste the script code. Then enter the affiliate url address (where specified) that you want to forward to.

Now when someone clicks on the new page you created
(ie: www.traffic-magnet.net/morevisitors.html), their browser will redirect to the affiliate site but it appears to the prospect that it is your site.

A simple redirect script can be obtained by Clicking Here

Now here's a really cool technique as used in example #3 above.

Get your own domain! It's the most professional strategy and will gain instant credibility and trust which can increase your rate of click-throughs. More click-throughs equals more traffic which means more eyes on your product or service, which means more cashflow in your pocket. Ok, here's the cool part and you don't even need your own website to pull this off.

Go to EclipseDomainServices.com and search for the availability of your desired domain. Register the name, but be sure to choose the 'redirect / forward' and the 'mask' option. Cost? About $9 for one year. In 24 - 48 hours, your domain will be live and running.

In example #3, if you chose www.eclipsedomainservices.com and someone types that address in their browser, it not only redirects to the site you chose, but will show up in the prospects browser window instead of the site's real URL
