Clickbank Hoplink Protection
New Clickbank Logo
Not only did Clickbank roll out an all new color scheme and layout, but they also launched a new tool that will help protect your affiliate links from prying eyes. It's a free tool which masks the promotion name and your affiliate link within a Clickbank hop.
HopLink Shield is a free tool that encrypts the affiliate and vendor nicknames in HopLinks.
Setting up an encoded hoplink is as easy as entering the Vendor Nickname and your Affiliate Nickname. Then press a button and BAM fresh encoded hoplink. Also, if you confused yourself in the process and have some encoded links floating around and can't remember what they are for they also have a decoder. Which brings up another question, why encode a link if there is an open way to decode them?
Seems like a small oversight and if they were this dedicated to privacy seems like they wouldn't publish the decoder as well. Or as a recommendation, at least only be able to decode once logged in, allowing only your own hops to be decoded. Oh well, it's a start.
