Question about linking to other sites..

[jb_rhys]

Hey guys,

I want to link to a website.. but i don't want them to know that i'm linking to them(long story). Is this possible? with html?

AFAIK there is no such thing as a one-way link where you are "connected" to them while at the same time they aren't "connected" to you.

They may need to check logs to see the connection, but a record of it in some form will be somewhere.

Why not tell some of the "long story"? There may be a way to do something that will satisfy your goal.

I thought I remembered reading about a particular rel value that could be used, but I cannot find any info now. However, while searching for "hide referrer" I saw several services that could help you out.

rel="nofollow"

<a href="example.com" secretlink="yes">link</a>

works even better than nofollow
