Hide referrer with dereferer - anonymiz.com
Derefferer Links
WHY USE THIS SERVICE?
A blank referrer increases privacy. Webmasters can use this dereferer tool to prevent their site from appearing in the server logs of referred pages as referrer. The operators of the referred pages cannot see where their visitors come from any more.
WHAT IS A DEREFERER?
A dereferer is a webpage that is used to redirect users to different websites. Usually, web browsers send small pieces of information when following a link, including a so-called "referer". The referer is the URL of the page the user came from, giving webmasters the option to track back the origin of users visiting their sites. The dereferer's part is to suppress this information; when analysing their transfer logs, webmasters will track back to the dereferer's URL instead of the original URL.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Technically, a dereferer page is just a normal webpage with some scripting additions. The link to the dereferer page supplies information about the target page. This information is evaluated by the dereferer page, and using meta tags, the browser is told to visit the target page. For there is no direct linkage between the linking page and the target page, trackbacks to the linking page are not possible.What does it cost?
Dereferer by anonymiz.com is a free service. We do not charge web page admins for linking via anonymiz.com, neither do we charge users for being redirected. It's as simple as that.
