If you buy traffic or own paysites, this {code} can help you

[Theo]

from the possibility one of the traffic affiliates or your paysite affiliates to send traffic from sites you do not want. It's a code you add to your .htaccess

A week ago some SE affiliate sent to one of our promo pages a single click from a domain having the word underage. (didnt have any illegal stuff..thank god) The sponsor reviewed their log files and terminated our account, something that costed us couple grands....

ok here's the code

[PHP]
# --------------------[ WE DO NOT WANT SUCH TRAFFIC AND WE BLOCK IT ]-----------------------

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on

#RewriteMap offender txt:./foul.map

#RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !=""
#RewriteCond ${offender:%{HTTP_REFERER}} ^-$
#RewriteRule ^(.*) http://blocked/ [R,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} scat [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} illegal [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} beast [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} lolita [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://blocked/ [L]

[PHP]


remove php tags,you add this code to your htaccess file
for each word you want to block use the following more times:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} wordiwanttoblock [NC,OR]

Did you see the memo about this?

There's nothing wrong with scat or beast.

Not saying that any of the above things are correct or right etc. But wouldnt it be more appropriate to say redirect the surfer to your site removing any current refferal info? E.G sending them to www.yoursite.com/index2.html framing the main site?

[Theo]

well the point is not to receive any traffic related with the above, not to just avoid your sponsor seen the refferal, that could have been done as you said with a simple redirection. The chances to receive such kind of traffic are minimal....but its better to eliminate it.

Good job S_R.

What's up with your memo things and threads ?

[Doctor Dre]

Who's the sponsor ? If they'd terminate my account for something I didn't do, I'd fucking expose them and make them shit in their pants.

[SABAI]

for once some useful info ,,, thanks a bunch

Hmmm seems funny...

Surfer SEs, hits affiliate, picks up aff ref, hits you, doesn't pick
up your ref, hits sponsor, sponsor sees aff ref.

Something was broken large in the http chain on that one.
The sponsor should have never gotten the aff ref. Seems to
me that a browser that broken, it wouldn't help to force even
the extra landing page.
