Ok, so Im on a website that has a Top 50 Referers Page. Im about 90% sure with the amount of traffic I bring to my page, I should be able to make the list, even if Im only number 50, but that means I need every visitor to go to that page.

I though of doing pop up/under, but since I am promoting an adult site and they are a free adult site, might be a little bad for my conversions. So my solution is doing an iframe. Would work great because obviously, every hit I get, they get to.

Now the most important part of this, is if I set the iframe to "0" height, will it still count as a page load? I mean...the url is still there, and the page should load, but you just wouldn't be able to see it right?

The iframe code im using:
Code: 
<iframe src ="http://www.abc123.com" width="100%" height="0">
  <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>
Please let me know if this would work or if there is some better way to make this happen.

You'll probably want to make it 1x1 to ensure that it loads in most browsers. Make sure that the referer site isn't using a framebuster. Also, if they check the site, you're done.
 
If they check it and pull me big deal. I lose them. lol. It's not like there paying me or anything, just trying to get some free promotion from them for as long as I can.

How do I know if they have frame buster? Im assuming by the name of it, it would break the frame and load the full page?

For a 1x1 I should do:
Code: 
width="1%" height="1"

EDIT: width="1" height="1"

Yeah, if they use a framebuster, you'll know pretty quickly. Check with a few different browsers.
 
Thanks for the help. Now its time to implement it and hope it works!

I just corrected my post above. You don't need to add "px" to the end of the length parameters. That is only necessary with CSS.
 
ok...so i believe it's working. Another thing I should have mentioned, is I have a dmr set up to hide referer to my aff link and then iframe is only displayed for like a sec. Dont know if they have a time limit or not but really dont care as it either works or it doesnt.

But anyways, it seems to work. Tested in ie and firefox as those are the only two browsers I have. Thanks again for the help.

If you're DMR'ing, be wary of leaks. It isn't a perfect method. Make sure you're checking for the blank referer before you send the traffic through to the site.
 
Tested using: hxxp://www.junkbusters.com/cgi-bin/privacy and it's hidden.
 
You can simple hide the iframe with css. You can show the iframe only to some ip 's too.
 
so say if I wanted to add hits to another site (site a)... and put the 1x1 iframe another site that has plenty traffic(site b)

the referrer for the siteA will be site b? rite?

so if i replaced that with something like brad101 script it will show a different referrer correct?
