If you sign up to a program you should either be on it at the standard rate, the special rate, the hidden rate but not the £0.00 rate, if not going to pay you they should at least say your no longer on this program, like Chris I will also have to check all my rates, oh the joy!

Having said that, why would we, affiliates, want to do that? The URL helps with SEO terms and if it relates to the post then whats the problem? I must admit, I too HATE the segment change emails. I never know where I should be looking to find the change, so over the past 3 years, have simply deleted the emails. I now dread to think how many segments I have been moved to, where I am worse off :| K, as has been mentioned, it’s extremely quick and easily to change the URL so it doesn’t mention Coke Zone (or any other brand) in the URL.

They might aswell go the whole hog and not allow you to mention the brand in the copy of your website either!

On the Write Post page there is an option on the right hand side called Post Slug. This allows you to set the text in the url to be different to the post title. Hope that helps. Hi Kieron

The answer is very simple.

On the Write Post page there is an option on the right hand side called Post Slug.

This allows you to set the text in the url to be different to the post title.

Hope that helps.
