Log in to the cpanel or control panel of your website. Go to the 'Files' section of your cpanel, and click on 'File Manager.' This will open the file directory of your website and allow you to upload the HTML file you created. Alternatively, you can use an FTP or file transfer program.
Create a new folder or directory within your website, and upload the index.html file to the folder. When a visitor goes to this folder, they will automatically be redirected to your affiliate link. Example:Redirect URL: www.yourwebsite.com/dogtrainingIn the above example, dogtraining is the newly created folder. The index.html file has been uploaded into it. When this URL is accessed, it automatically redirects a visitor to the affiliate link.
Open the web pages that contain hyperlinks of your affiliate URL. Replace them with the redirect URL you created. Your affiliate links are now cloaked and protected from hijackers.
