Redirects for a Newb

[PSU4Life]

I read Redirects and couldn't get any programing to work since I'm an idiot. This NGVT URL Shrinker was suggested as an easy way to redirect but I'm assuming this site will track what your doing and also says (Hide Your Real Links) on top of the browser.


Is TinyURL.com ok or do I have to worry about them tracking?

In the thread you linked to, you have questions about this post?

Pretty much explains it.

I did read the thread I posted and couldn't get the programming to work...so my question is are sites like tinyurl.com safe to use. I'm assuming these sites track what your doing and then will be your competitor.

a while back I was doing a shitload of traffic, 20 - 30k clicks per day through one of those random url redirect services and they switched my affiliate link out for theirs during the night I found out.. I would be careful with alot of those.

in .htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^suburl/$ http://www.affiliate-link-here.com/

so http://domain.com/suburl/ will goto http://www.affiliate-link-here.com/
