A Hilarious Lander Comment

One of my friends has found this comment on a lander he ripped:

Which one of you jokers want to take credit and a bow for this one? Thanks for the laugh!

The first part of that snippet is all over nutra landers. Highly doubt healthleaks was the originator. Guy trolled himself.

Yup! Reverse psychology at its best!

You gotta admire them for trying though!

Did he really put redirect script or just bluff? hahaha

That's the question..... gna gna gna.

hahaha LOL - always run through the entire source code and check all redirects is the lesson of this story

This is why affiliate marketing is great - where could you see so much irony and creative jokes at work Thanks for sharing!

Amazing, and even if they didn't inject a script, you bet if the offer has days or times when it isn't converting up to par, it will still drive the affiliate crazy thinking someone must be stealing there traffic and they can't be doing anything wrong. Seen it 100 times!

If they actually HAD put sneaky code in there, they wouldn't be warning about it - that just wouldn't make sense.

It's likely because the person didn't have the techincal know-how to keep the lander from spy tools, but still wanted competition to keep away from the lander. A+ for effort if you asked me.

BTW - here are a couple of suggestions on how to check a lander for sneaky code - extracted from the FAQ for the AMC course:

Q: How to detect sneaky redirect code in landers?

Depends what kind of functionality you are trying to find as redirection could easily be triggered by a timer, complex logics, cookie-based, etc. There are a bunch of ways to make sure it doesn't fire until it's live and in position.

Although if you watch the web console for it calling out to ANY external service, and it doesn't, and then check if it's dropping any cookies, and it's not, you should be OK.

But for just checking whether it's calling out, developer tools > network tab.

To check whether or not it’s dropping cookies:

-On Chrome: chrome://settings/

-And check for your domain.

-Check before you first visit the page on your domain, and then after.

Or use something like http://www.cookie-checker.com/

Another good way: Browse to the lander and refresh it 10 times. Many redirect scripts are set to only redirect a percentage of the traffic - usually between 10-50% - so if you refresh 10 times you'd likely trigger it at least once (if it exists).

Being able to find out whether or not it's there is the first step. Second step would be to know which lines of code to remove - you need to know coding to do this. I would start by searching the code for "http" and/or domain extensions. Base64 code is also a good hiding place, but you'd need a good decoder and a good eye to find the redirect.

I don't code myself - so would really appreciate any additional tips you guys can give on this subject!

There are ways to encode HTML pages (there are utilities for this) ... the problem with this is, that it influences speed and you need to keep in control of the process. As far as I know, you cannot encode 'parts' of the code, unless you write a function that fetches it / includes it out of a different file. If that's the case, that piece of code will be findable. If someone is hosting landers on their own server (VPS or dedicated), then I can imagine some sneaky tricks in order to protect landers, but it's really not that easy.

Warning - if you reply this comment your computer will explode
Or maybe not, but I did try with maximum effort LOL.

@vortex
Maybe they're using rever reverse psychology. So they get people thinking: "nah, if they really had a script they wouldn't announce it" but there really is

Ooooh....you may be right!

Didn't think of that.

Perhaps we should do a split-test to see which tactic will get more people to fall for the trip - and use the lander!
