]]> Comment on Considering BlackHat Methods? – Think Again! by Morten L. Nielsen http://paybackim.com/blog/considering-blackhat-methods-think-again/comment-page-1/#comment-4 Morten L. Nielsen Wed, 20 Jan 2010 23:25:30 +0000 http://paybackim.com/blog/?p=24#comment-4 You're very welcome Linda. :-) The technique you're describing is, when used <strong>correctly</strong>, a nice tool to use for instance when using free reports in the build-up to a launch. That way you can set the cookie for the affiliate who led you to download the free report. Come launch-day, this affiliate gets paid for his service. I think you're affiliates would very much like this idea ;-) That being said - it can of course be used for much more "evil" purposes, and in the end I believe we can only strive to educate the marketers to come to stay away from the dodgy attempts at shortcuts (that won't work in the long run anyway). And hope we succeed in this before everyone and his dog disables cookies on their computers for good. You’re very welcome Linda. :-)

This was a WP plugin actually. Something about this is just too sneaky for me. I believe I have the right to choose who I support by clicking or not clicking on one of their affiliate links or banners. With all the garbage promotion tricks, empty useless websites especially with internet marketing, keeping yourself above the fray is the only way to go. Nothing beats old school clean code that is actually useful to others. Good post, you caught me just at the right time, and thanks for letting me vent!
