cloaking with tracking..

kammykhan · Feb 6, 2009

hey peeps...

im working with cpa networks and was wondering if anyone knows any updated scripts that allow me to double meta refresh and also track clicks?

also, hiding the url after clicking would be a bonus...

is there anything available?

preferbly something free but dnt mind paying either...
hope someone can help!

You could try making a quick mod to Prosper202 which is free and offers excellent click tracking, though it sounds like you don't need such a robust solution.

If no one else answers this thread with a free solution by the end of the day, I'll throw down.

if you make yourself the dmr script you can include in one of the links a php file which can log ips,browsers,etc

I agree with oldenstylehats in that Prosper 202 is a great solution for tracking and best of all free. I know you asked for blanking the referrer but you may consider using the built in cloaking feature within Prosper 202 which basically will show your Prosper 202 domain as the referrer effectively hiding the source of your traffic and providing excellent tracking.

Just grab yourself a domain that is relevant for tracking and push all traffic through this tracking domain which will provide you with amazing stats as well as hiding your source. You will be able to use this tracking domain for ALL your campaigns and have a central source of tracking.

Hope this helps!

It has been working for me without issues. I do not have any major traffic running through it as I am just starting out but so far, so good.

I think olden was referring to making a mod to blank the referrer rather than cloak it and show the tracking domain. This would be possible by modding the prosper 202 code to use a DMR instead.

But you are right, cloaking and tracking is built in, so if you were OK with showing the tracking domain as the referrer than nothing more needs to be done.

Yup, you nailed it. I personally would use the tracking domain as the referer. When those referers are followed back to their source, an affiliate manager is presented with a very familiar Prosper202 login screen. You'll also be in a good position if/when more browsers begin to adjust their response to that sort of forwarding behavior. Just something to think about.

EDIT:
Just make sure that you have the tracking site/domain on a separate IP. You don't want someone linking it with whatever shady stuff you're doing.
