If I was going to make one of those "Sara's Acai Berry Weight Loss" landing pages which make people think that you lost all this weight from certain products would I need to blank the referrer or do a double meta refresh. I just want to make sure that I won't get banned from my affiliate company. I am not too sure on how to do either one of them or if it is even necessary and if I could just put the links to my affiliate link. If anyone has any further information I would appreciate it very much! Thanks!:)
 
as long as you are not tricking your visitors into completing the action i think you should be fine
 
I'm almost positive your affiliate network won't mind. Though checking with your AM never hurts.
 
Well wouldn't it be considering "tricking" because I am not Sara nor have I used the weight loss products to achieve the results stated on the landing page. Or is it fine to pose as someone else?
 
I'd say in this case "tricking" consists of making someone complete the action in a misleading way like: enter your email and get 1000 bucks free. Making a fake review does not constitute fraud so I think you will be fine.
 
Concealing/obscuring the truth and using fake reviews has been a part of advertising since before the Internet. Run it passed your AM if you're really concerned, but I don't think you have much to worry about.
 
Talked to my AM and its perfectly fine, thanks guys!
