Can you crop a certain section of a landing page that you are promoting to only show the optin submit section using an iframe?

I know how to do it but just wondering if this is something that is allowed in most networks? Or do you have to allow the entire page to be in the iframe?

I first read about it in a blackhat forum so thats why I was wondering if its safe to use...
 


It's easy to do but not allowed by networks and advertisers and chances are if you get caught you won't get paid for those leads and probably banned. Networks do however allow full screen iframes, just not selectively cropped frames. Blanking the referrer in an iframe leaks, but it is possibly to fake the referrer.

Lead quality will also be crap as the page will remained iframed on the second page (it's possibly to code it so it goes full screen after the first page submit though).

I wouldn't recommend it but it is very doable, I wouldn't bother unless you were also driving quality traffic to make it work for the advertiser as well.
 
Don't defraud networks...

Even if you hide the referrer the leads won't back out for the advertiser. So either way you're gonna get caught.

Just use incent offers. But if you're trying to trick the user into filling the offer then just go back to blackhatfraudstersworld.com
 
Just as a matter of interest , what is the point of iframing an advertisers landing page?
and secondly why crop the landing page - what don't you want the surfer to see?

Plenty of offers allow iframing and H&P. Just make sure to get approval in writing from the advertiser or network first.

You won't get approval on this from any legitimate network on a email/zip submit. Some of these advertisers have had their asses handed to them in the past by various state AG's and have a ton of fine print on their landing pages. Cropping that out is not something they'd be happy seeing.
