    Why don't more sponsors offer SE friendly linking

    Like etu-cash does?

    For example, you link to http://bigboobspaysite.com and the referring domain is tracked, so that there is no need for a tracking code?

              copied from http://etu-cash.com/free_staff.html:

              Direct link.

              This option is also totally unique and was invented by us.

              You list your domain in our database then instead of sending traffic to a long, ugly URL like http://www.ravegloryhole.com/index.php3?id=YourID (the common way all partnerships programs work nowadays), you will be able to send traffic directly to the site, such as http://www.ravegloryhole.com and you will STILL GET CREDIT FOR ALL SIGNUPS!

              However strange it sounds, this is has proven to actually DOUBLE the conversion! Most of surfers nowadays are more tech-savvy than in previous years and some of them go as far as even deleting the link code with webmasters ID simply because they don't want anyone to profit from their money! They also simply like and trust www.paysite.com much more than https://www.paysite.com/fuckknowswha...smartwebmaster

                                  will not work with surfers using Norton Internet Security, as referer is not passed with NIS being on.
                                  but who doesn't want untrackable traffic?

                                      I asked the same question a few months back, I wrote an affiliate system earlier this year which uses that method and it works just great.

                                      In addition to offering awesome short URLs to our affiliates, we now also track all sales from all other sites - not registered by affiliates. In other words, we get direct conversion rates from all search engines, etc etc.

                                      It kicks ass.

                                          I wasn't even referring to that line. It's just about your credibility and SE friendliness.

                                                      That would be great for the paysite operators if you could link directly.

                                                      Pimplink - you can feel free to link directly to any or all of our sites, we will give your credit - I promise.

                                                      Our linkcode for occash are SE friendly as well, BTW.

                                                          While this is true, how many users are using that excact piece of software? On one of our paysites the content provider relies on HTTP_REFERER to be the paysite's members area when a user is sent to it. We have rarely had any problems with it though.

                                                          Also, can anyone give me a good reason why a piece of firewall software should block the browser's HTTP_REFERER? I can understand blocking for example USER_AGENT to not let the site throw the browser a version-specific exploit, but how does it make sense with HTTP_REFERER?

                                                          The only fairly valid reason I can think of is privacy-freaks which refuses to send any site the address they came from, but that is not a good enough reason for making this the default setting in such a high profile firewall application.

                                                          Anyway, thinking about this I decided to post a screenshot from the affiliate program (the one I made, mentioned it earlier) we use for one of our sites, to show you what kind of handy information you can retrieve by using such a method.

                                                          The screenshots show's the top #20 unregistered sites in our system. That means, all sites not registered by an affiliate. That mostly includes search engines, some top lists etc.

                                                          The numbers are hits, sales and conversion rates. Also have in mind these are SMS sales, which is the lesser used payment method on our site. The credit card sales are not counted here as our beloved Verotel takes care of that.



                                                          As you can see for yourself, in terms of optimizing profits such information as the picture above is great to see which areas needs work, etc.

                                                          Also, the picture above groups all the referers by domain to create a count per domain. If we want, we can also see detailed statistics on search engine keywords, etc.

                                                          Wouldn't it be easier to improve your sites with such information?

                                                              tracking like that only benefits the program owners as far as search engine friendlyness goes, not the affiliate.

                                                                                      this is not new, many people are using it. i just didnt think anyone was stupid enough to just direct link to the domain and hope the sponsor tracks the referrer, due to reffer being blocked or unavailable in so many cases.

                                                                                              its a good idea to make your own site look cleaner without ref codes makes it seem more legit.

                                                                                              But se's are picking up dynamic content quite well already so.

It _ONLY_ benefits the Paysite owner, because their PR will increase if they can link directly to the domain. What other sense is there if I may ask?!

                                                                                                  Maybe I am just too stupid for that.

It _ONLY_ benefits the Paysite owner, because their PR will increase if they can link directly to the domain. What other sense is there if I may ask?!

Why would it matter to you if a paysite does better in the rankings as you certainly won't get credit when they do and the linking described doesn't help you with SE's.
