Hi there! How are you today? It’s just that i dig your site so much, and that i believe you can start making alot of cash using it. I run a couple of successful websites that i started bringing in some money from lately. They are using a thing called a content blocker widget, that makes guests fill out a small survey inorder to view premium content or to download files that they need. And each time they do a fast survey i make around two dollars. Pretty awsome eh? Been earning much more from it than adsense.. Feel free to email me, or you can check it out through my refferal link. tinyurl.com/yevwfst, Regards, Hennrik R. Hannsen

Downside to offsite framing: It can cause cookie issues
However, a useful idea.
I use something similar with a 404 handler in ASP.NET
it looks up anything calling /goto/XXXX and maps it to a redirect.

That’s a REALLY handy tool Paul, thanks – I’ve been lookign for something like that for a while, since I’m promoting some awesome products but don’t want it to look crappy.
I’d also recommend using a link tracker such as tweetburner.com (or the one that comes with Ed Dale’s 30-day challenge) so you can see how many people have clicked on your affialite link and you can track how the affiliate offer is converting.

for example:
my link to Michael Rasmussen’s Mini site profits exposed free videos on my site is a direct link, but if I post other offers elsewhere I use a different link tracker to see which activity is working best, so link tracker link 1 for videos, tracker link 2 for blogs, tracker link 3 for forums, etc and they all link to the same affiliate link.
This means when people follow the link to get the free videos, I can see where they have come from.
The really keen can use a different link for every video site, every forum, every blog, and then you can see what is really working for you.

I’m not sure if this is the most efficient way of doign ti, but it’s working for me!!
