Many bloggers think it’s good to hide the affiliate links, not because they don’t want their visitors to know they are affiliated but because of other reasons like:

* Changing your affiliate links is a lot less work because you have to change in just one place then on hundreds of pages where you use those links

* It hides the ugly part of affiliate codes. People tend to not trust long links with a lot of characters and unknown codes. A nicely formated and clean link is more likely to be clicked then one that contains an affiliate code in it.

* It kind of forces them to click the link instead of just typing the link (without your affiliate code ) in the browser.

* better SEO, the links don’t look like affiliate links, the redirect is done from a html page that has noindex on it so search engines shouldn’t look at it.
