RE: WebAlias.com

In a post on July 29th, 2005, I mentioned a service called WebAlias that I decided to use after ShortURL.com gave me the long run-around.

Anyone new to webpage building needs to understand that this service pulls your page into a frameset. If you were going to use this method to cloak an affiliate URL you would need to modify the order link to include "target=_blank" so that the ordering page opens in a new browser window.

Alternately you could use "target=_top" to open in the same browser window.

This is important if you are selling affiliate programs from Clickbank. You would want to make sure you have read and understand their HopLink FAQ. Frames are a "no-no" and could cost you your commission in some cases.
