If your like me you’re probably struggling to get your affliate links at least seen on Google. Then you want a good ranking. Theres been tons of schemes and many have sunk when google altered its algorithm. Template Monster is an example of a company affected.
The problem is that Google does not like seeing multiple websites promoting the same thing, and well if you consider that many Affiliates go through the same programs, such as clickbank, it’s no wonder it can be very easy for google to cut out duplicate content by ignoring and any website from the Search Engine Result Positions (SERP's) that had the same address pattern.
Now of course there are exceptions.

What is needed is unique content and NO trace of that affiliate link. Somehow, Google worked out how to decipher the javascript of some sites and ignore the affiliate links. Presntly I am trying redirect links that are robots.txt forbidden.
Do I have the answer?
To be truthful, its a work in progress. I’ll keep you posted.
However you could try an affiliate link that cant be stripped
