How to block referrals?

Hi guys, I recently learned about blocking referrals so the affiliate marketers won't see where the data that I don't want them to see. However, I have no idea how to actually go about doing this. Do you have guys any idea?

Get a good tracker... It usually happens through a meta refresh, double meta refresh or a redirect...

Turn cloaking on prosper or cpvlab , that's all you need to do.

Guys, a new question arose while I was setting up P202. It is tracking my clicks properly on my LP, but for cloaking purposes would I have to host Prosper202 on a different domain entirely (currently it is on a subdomain on my VPS)? Or could I just move the redirect page to a different hosting provider and switch the link to it in my lp?

Also, if I use the same VPS for hosting P202 on a different domain, would it defeat the purpose of cloaking since someone might be able to check the IP of the VPS and find my other domains (with my LP's on them) too?

Thanks a ton guys

Nah it's all good , can keep both on the same domain.

Just make sure you use robots.txt to stop search engines indexing your landers.

Even if that happens go to google webmaster tools and submit a request for removal.

Here's a handy tool for generating robots.txt files:
