Genjutsu,
Do you have a script that allows you to change the referrer?

Can anyone tell me how, instead of blanking out the referrer, I could set $referer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; to some legit landing page and then have url2 check for that value instead of a blanked out referrer?

Basically, I'm trying to avoid blank referrers by setting that $referer variable to a value. Anyone know if this is possible and what the syntax would be?

You can use an iframe to pass a custom referrer, or a javascript post similar to what Gen describes in the other thread. You'll still want to employ a referrer check to be certain, and may also want to use the custom variable approach so that only pre-approved traffic will be handled in this matter. This way if the cpa network checks your custom referrer page directly they will see something different. Framing is often not allowed or frowned upon, and can also mess up the functionality of the landing page form. On the other hand, if you're just using this as filler traffic then you may not care about those problems.

Anyone have code to add rotate-ability to this? Would like to use this but divide traffic between three or four different offers.

Had a question about doing this. Its stated that there are 2 URL's, however, isn't there really 3? This is the part thats confusing me.

URL 1 Black Hat Page You Want To Hide/Cloak the referrer

URL 2 Redirect URL 1---> leads to Redirect URL 2

URL 3 Redirect URL 2 ---> leads to cpa offer

This is the part thats getting me. Also is there a way to test this? Because if there is a referrer, then Redirect URL 2 wont lead to the offer correct?

rigel · Aug 18, 2008

What I did was just use 2 URLS, so my sales page with the celebrity, then just put a link to another .php page on that same domain, which will redirect to the 2nd URL that goes to the offer. So I guess it could be 3 but really only needs to be 2. Works either way.

This may be a different topic, but I'm not sure because it is still a little over my head. I have a CPA offer that I am promoting. I purchased a specific domain name that I will be using with it. I would like to set up an iframe on the site that still hides the referer. Is this possible? I want people to type w3.mysite.c0m ---> iframe loads w3.mysite.c0m/direct1 ---> w3.mysite.c0m/direct2 ---> w3.CPAoffer.c0m. Am I thinking right?

ximscreamingx · Aug 19, 2008

What are you trying to accomplish exactly? Are you trying to simply force a redirection from yoursite to your cpa offer? Or are you just trying to get a click and a cookie stuff for the offer?

Gen's right on every accord. I'm not sure why your traffic is not working. Have you tested the links yourself?

Genjutsu said:
i use that same version that he posted, I should know, i helped him set it up.
Anyway, i dont understand why its not working, i use this for findology traffic and 100% of the traffic runs through it to my offers. There are many others that use it to the same effect.

Hey, 2 page refreshes.

here is an idea. If your working with PHP. you can just pass a variable with your refresh on page 1 so if page 2 gets the variable it forwards you on to the offer - if however page 2 does not get the variable it runs the page as it.

Cheers

The problem is the 2nd meta refresh, if pass the referrer the affiliate will get your "key" to the redirect...

Make an file called offers.txt, put an offer per line.

<?php
// Open the File with offers to rotate
$sites = array_map("trim", file("offers.txt"));

// Choose a random site to shows
$redirect = $sites[array_rand($sites)];

//make the mea refresh to the random site in variable redirect
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://".$redirect."\">";

?>

I searched for that too, and what i found:

1st - Yes you can change the referrer but only using proxy.
(Is not easy to have a list of working proxies.)

2nd - You can use curl and make an fake referrer.

In the destination the referrer will be fake, but the IP will be the proxy IP. It will count once at the offer (per day, or the count time in that offer).
The Ip will trace as an NET user, no country.

If Someone have another way please give me an clue.

I'm currently using this double meta refresh, if I'm banned frm the network I'll let you know, lol.

Not very reassuring though.

I tested this, and many cheap traffic sources pass the referrer in the double meta refresh.

Many of them use the same script, and i think this script call the destination using curl.

Ok, some of my links are working great but some of them give me this message and wont work..

"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/mydirectory/public_html/two/one.php on line 16"

The code should be working and i can not figure out why it is doing this...

Anyone?

You have an error on line 16.
Call the file with the php edit see what is in the line 16.
If this is the 2nd meta refresh file, the problem can be the link have an special character , an ' or ".
Try to encode the link in the 1st meta refresh file and decode it in the 2nd

It will not "pass the referrer." If the referrer is blank, it will pass the traffic on to your afflink, if not, it will send them to a specified web page elsewhere.

Im talking about the "1mill_soon" code, not about the double meta refresh.

da buck · Aug 20, 2008

I just want to redirect from my site to the CPA offer. I would like my URL to still show up while people fill in the offer instead of the aff site. I also want to make sure the referrer is hidden.

Ok, I'm confused. There's lots of people posting code, then other people are adding stuff and reposting, then someone comes along and says something different and posts their code, etc...

Can someone just upload a complete script with all the bells and whistles?

This works.

So basically this is how it would go.

a href link to URL1 which sends referer

URL1

PHP:

<?php echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=URL2\">"; ?>

URL2

PHP:

<?php $referer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; if($referer == "") { echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://www.youraffiliatelink.com\">"; } ?>
