Re-Direct Site

Are there any advantages and/or disadvantages to creating a redirect site that brings the customer right to the original seller. If anyone has advise o n how to create it, please help. The best advise i've recieved so far is to go to rentacoder.com and describe what im looking for. I have the start up money to do what i need to once i find the product im looking for. Where should i be spending it?

If I catch what your asking correctly,
you want to just re-direct the visitor
from your domain to the seller's product page.
Right?

First, you don't need rentacoder for that.
A re-direct is REALLY easy to do.
But before I just hand you the code,
lets answer your other question...

YES, there is a BIG disadvantage if you JUST re-direct.
I'm not going to be too detailed,
because we could talk about it all day long.
But, in short,
there is NO advantage except the occasional sale.
And you don't want to just settle for that.

It is actually more work to keep up with all
the new ways to create web traffic,
and NOT be able to RE-use it.
In other words, you're leaving most of the money on the table.

You want to create a community,
capture names and email addys,
and tell them about the product in your words.
( preferably from your experience )

This is a good user experience,
and when you come up with other products that are
related to the first one they bought on your recommend,
you recommend them to your community.
( in fact, you should feel obligated to )

You want to be able to re-use the traffic you created.
NOT just hand it over to someone else.

Try to think of the "products" you're thinking of recommending
as "an interest" to specific people.
Hopefully you, but surly the people that buy it.
Build a site based on the interest,
and similar interests. ie: products.
Then... be loyal to your community.
And they will reward you Smile

Hope it helps!
Brad.

P.S.
Here is the redirect code.
Just paste it into an html, and upload.

<html><head><title>Redirecting...</title>
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() { document.location = document.links[0].href; };
</script></head>
<body>
<p><a href="http://www.YOUR AFFILIATE URL.com">Click here</a> if you are not redirected</p>
</body>
</html>

OR, with this one, you can bypass the product's sales page,
and choose the page the visitor ends up on, but they still get cookied.

<html><head><title>Redirecting...</title>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" content="0;URL=http://www.YOUR AFFILIATE URL.com&u=http://www.THE PAGE YOU WANT THEM TO SEE.html"> </head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

Bradley, on the below redirect... I have been trying to test this method without any luck, Does it work with clickbank? I want to link to a products purchase link from my own sales page. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Greg,

K, this is how it works.
First you need to know your clickbank id, or affiliate url.
Once you have that, you put it in the code where it says:
