    Information needed: "Best way to wipe clean traffics referring information?

    What is the best way you've found to wipe the referrer information off traffic.

    With the state of the industry the way it is (sales down for some etc.).....more & more affiliate reps are stealing traffic source information & passing it on to other affiliates (or using it for themselves)

    So lets take a moment to go over some "known" & "new" ways to wipe that referrer information right off a click.

    Please post scripting ideas, re-direction ideas, php, aspx etc.

    Whats the method you use these days?

    Other than my method....the baseball bat.

      baseball bat sounds good ......... this is gonna be a gr8 thread......

      Nahh in all seriousness, this sounds very interesting and I'd love to hear about referrer cleaning scripts.... I can't imagine getting 20K+ keywords, cleaning them up, grouping them, refining ads every hour/day and after I've done all that work have an fucking affiliate manager steal the keywords that are converting from the referrer URL..... thats really fucked up....

        yup real fucked up....so I'm going to start suggesting to all affiliates to use some industrial grade scripts to hide their traffic

        and start using hosts who have high-paid techs....because obviously cheap technical support at your hosting company is another very weak link

        i will bump this when i wake up today

            best way is send all your traffic to http://mydomain.com/out.php?trafficcode
            this will set http://mydomain.com/out.php?trafficode as the refer for your traffic.
            At admin you can setup for each code what program should recive your traffic.
            and no one can know the source.
            you can also play with geo or with other traffic options to control your traffic good.

            I use my own custom made software to have a full control over my traffic.

                  I use my own custom made software to have a full control over my traffic.
                  I've been doing that for a couple of years now. I had a few FPAs that I made, tweaked and re-tweaked and were doing really, really well with my MGP traffic. As soon as I got those to < 1:200 on MGP traffic (yes, really) I found a couple of other affiliates who copied the ads layout almost exactly. The only way they could have known about it was an affiliate rep showing them what was working for me.

                  Now I have a PHP script that uses sqlite to manage where my traffic goes. domain.com?c=x&i=randomcode
                  I like pie.

                          I have a script which strips it out well. What you do is setup up 2 domains. The first is a site hosting the landing page. You then have a regular link from that landing page to an intermediary page. You then have a combination of javascript/cgi based redirector which will make the intermediary page the referrer so the spy will only see the intermediary page.

                              What he said.. I have a domain that's only used for redirecting to the sponsor.. So a lot of my sites link to that domain and that domain redirects to the sponsor. However, you need to use javacript or a meta page refresh at least once. Better to use javascript as it will also help to filter out a lot of bots.
