How Do Offer Links Work? (5)

Hello Everyone,
I have a question regarding on how my outgoing offer links work. I am trying to wrap my head around this still.
But for example when I scrap a lander off adplexity and place my tracker click offer link into the code and then when I test it shows that my offer link is being clicked but it is taking me to other sites (i.e. an adult webcam offer).
I am confused on how offer urls work. Do they send the person down to a different offer based on their location and various other qualifications. (For Example when I test my offer it takes me to a Erectile Dysfunction Pill Company (Roman)) and pretty sure I am not promoting this.

Is there any forums or ways to understand how a link offer works and how and where it takes people when they click on my lander.

Hope this makes some what sense to whoever is reading it. Really appreciate any help I can get to understanding this.


Thanks

Okay gotcha I had a feeling that it was redirecting me based off my location and what not. Thanks for the help Rondog!
Do you happen to know how to have a VPN review the offer if its in a different geo?

Once you sign up a VPN you will have the ability to change your geo and then browse the internet. Once signed in, you can plug the offer URL into your browser and you would see the offer funnel and shouldn’t be redirected to other offers.

Having a VPN and the ability to test the links in different Geos is quite handy, but I don't hink you need it when you are trying to make the ripped lander work. You just need to look through the code and clean it from any snippets that redirect to a site that is not the part of your own funnel. Once you locate all these parts of code, you then either completely remove them, or replace with your own links.

The fact that the lander is still sending you to some offers that you don't want means that you did not clean it up completely.

Here is the excellent "How to Fix Up Ripped Landers" post by Vortex - I can't really add anything else.

Also, if you want to figure how you end up on that Erectile Disfunction page, hit "F12" in Firefox and click on "Network" tab - and then load your ripped lander again. You will able to analyze the redirect path that took you there. If it is something like

"ripped lander" -> domain1.com -> domain2.com -> someoneelsesoffer.com

then you know that you need to search for "domain1.com" in the code.
