WANTED Script: Linkshare/CJ/BeFree

In the linkshare, cj and bfree affiliate programs, you can create links to their clients homepage and various products. When these links are clicked on, I believe a cookie from either linkshare, cj and bfree gets set on the browser of whoever clicks on the link, while the browser gets the page of the linkshare/cj/bfree client.

Unfortunately, to create links to individual products through these affiliate sites is extremely time consuming. You have to log in, search for the product, and then create the link… and these sites are SLOW.

I just thought it’d be cool if I could bypass logging into my linkshare/cj/bfree account every single time i want to create a link for my website. I thought I could do that by creating a mySQL/php script that keeps track of the linkshare/cj/bfree clients that I have affiliations with, and always use a single link from those clients to grab the necessary tracking cookies from each of the linkshare/cj/bfree clients homepage, then forward the clicker to the product from that client.

I hope this makes sense. Any ideas out there? I’m open to any solution. Of course I am paying.

@shimonApr 03.2004 — i have absolutely no idea what those schemes are or how they work but the answer is probably a big ol' no.

If their process is lengthy, there's probably a reason for it, they obviously need a lot of info or setup at their end so i doubt you can fake it

and the thing about cookies - absolutely no way can you pick up or control cookies that have to be dropped onto a site user by another domain. no way. think about it - do you imagine that if you would click the link to my site down below, i could force you to pick up your cookies from you online bank/last visit to amazon/webmail and then bring you back to me so i can read them?

you wouldnt want that ?

Success!
