Question: Jim,

I caught your article on Traffic Analysis but was unable to unearth methods of avoiding commission stealing.

Will a simple PHP redirect do the trick? I expect that the offending code changes the affiliate code in the downloaded HTML; doing a redirect off of a server would eliminate that problem if that is the case. Is this the silver bullet?

Jim's Answer:

I'm not really a code-slinger, though sometimes I know enough to get me into trouble. You should check out the affiliate or webmaster discussion boards, they are full of tips and tricks, for example:
