I also redirect my own domains to my aff link and I have noticed that they are in search engines. Is it possible to actually rank well in google? If so would you just get backlinks? Is it much more harder than having your own site?
 


Just make a few pages with tons of unique content about the affiliate, use H1 tags, place tons of inbound links. Then use a javascript redirect.

Also, make a few blogspot blogs and make posts linking to this newly created site for extra backlinks. Consider using a direct submission service too. Your site may get banned from google....but then again, it may not ;) :P
 
LOL - back in the day people would go submit all of their affiliate links and see how many would stick. I don't see it so much in Google nowadays, but on MSN I have affiliate links that rank well for certain terms.

I did not submit them, but the term is close to the target text I use when I make a text link to the advertisement. On some keywords, that I really tried to optimize for it makes me laugh 'cause my affiliate link pops up over the page I have it on - which makes sense I guess because the sponsor has a higher ranking site than I do.

I do not feel like it is a long term strategy, but yes it is possible in MSN. Like I said, I'm not seeing that in Google any more. Maybe you are.
 
I recently saw this in Google for one of the affiliates at the company I used to work at. The keyword was good enough that I had to get some linking to that page with that keyword. I was worried that we would start to see duplicate content issues because of this. I would think the affiliate software would do a redirect so that this wouldn't happen.
 
Umm eventually the aff program will be leeching the PR off you. This is a bad longterm strategy me thinks...
 
I've had some of my php redirects rank #1 in google for some keywords. I have no idea how or why this happened, but my conversions skyrocketed. It only lasted a couple months though.
 
I've got a few redirects indexed, not ranking for anything other than the generic domain name, but still was surprised to see them in the index.
