I'm not sure if this the the correct location to post this, but here goes.

OK on my site I have a external link. The owner of the site that I'm linking to use google analytics, I want to be to create fake clicks on that link that will record different IP address and location. IE owner of the site thinks they are getting more clicks then they really are.

Why not click the links yourself using different proxies?

You can set up an 1px iframe leading to that link, then just shoot a bunch of proxified traffic to that page.

So for clarification, if I had an affiliate link, and it wanted it to show that I drive more traffic to his website than I actually do.... (i'm not paid per click, just to make my site seem more valuable)...

All have to do is create a 1px frame on my website that links to theirs using my affiliate link, and it will show as though someone clicked through to their website from mines?

Use PHP cURL to create fake traffic with fake referer through proxies.

Here is a piece of code I use:

PHP Code:

function getPage($proxy, $url, $referer, $agent, $header, $timeout) {
    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, $header);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, $proxy);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $referer);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $agent);
 
    $result['EXE'] = curl_exec($ch);
    $result['INF'] = curl_getinfo($ch);
    $result['ERR'] = curl_error($ch);
 
    curl_close($ch);
 
    return $result;
}

Correct.

Mind you though, when/if they analyse your traffic they will see that something's wrong as your bounce rate will (obviously) be extremely high.

Using cURL is better I think. You can send lot of fake traffic.

You can use sockets too.

But it will not work with Analytics I think... :/

using proxies you cannot fake visits in a way that it shows up on google analytics ?

im sure there is a way plenty of fake traffic exchanges/ traffic trades who can flip traffic to your site from 50 a day to 50k a day lol i am sure this is bot traffic. but havnt figured out yet, how they do it =P

I wouldnt mind payin for a software taht would do exactly this as long as it shows up on the google analytics on the destination site.

bot traffic is also buying PPC

It is very easy to make fake ggl Analytics with ZennoPoster from diffirent proxies, user agents, etc.

It is easy to fake with the apps already mentioned but be aware that search engines really don't want us doing fake referrals; so don't do it on a site with adse**e and try not to overdo it either, just a few search engine referrals a day should pass undetected.

If the site owner check the visited proxy ip's, he can't figure out what's going on?

Best trick (to be counted in analytics) is to clickjack the external link. thus, you force any real visitor to click on it without even knowing.
