Affiliate link cloak?

What's the best way to cloak an affiliate link on your website and be able to track clicks or page?

 

I think the best way it to buy your own domin and track any info you would like. You will need a simple script written by tourself if you can or you can use ready-made TDS scripts that give you full info.

 

url shorteners - good way, but only if you haven't complains about your method. Because shorteners die fast if something goes wrong

 

using scripts.,,

 

Shorteners not what I am looking for.
Yes I understand a script is in order, but what does it actually need to do? I think PHP would be best...

 

something like this? http://studge.com/hiding-links-with-php-and-counting-clicks-with-mysql/

 

That is really helpful, cheers

 

There is a video at yahoo which may have what you are looking for and it is free:
