Lander Protection Script
In a typical scenario, your landing page is available for anyone that has a link to it. This means that it can be viewed by visitors that didn't go through a campaign URL and may have other intent than taking your offer. Additionally, various spying tools can also access your page and potentially copy its content. To protect your most successful landing pages, Voluum offers you the Lander Protection Script feature that can block access to your landing page from visitors or programs that didn't come through a campaign URL. They will just see a blank page instead.
Caution
Voluum Note: Because the way the Lander Protection Script works, it can be used only with the redirect method of tracking.
How Does It Work?
The Lander protection script checks for the lptoken token that is added to the campaign URL and passed to the lander. If this token is not present, the site will be blocked from view.
Versions of the Lander Protection Script
There are two versions of the Lander Protection Script:
JavaScript: This version of the Lander Protection Script works on most landing pages. It provides basic protection from people going directly to this page. It does not, however, provide protection from automatic scanning tools, such as Adplexity. The landing page can still be previewed in such tools, but, as direct access is blocked, it is harder to copy.
PHP: This is the recommended version of the Lander Protection Script. It blocks all access to the landing page, including access from automatic scanning tools, such as Adplexity. The drawback is that it only works on PHP websites
