Aweber unlocking my website

Hi Wim & Welcome

Most hosting companies offer the option to create password protected directories through your hosting control panel. Look there first, as this is an option that wont have any additional costs. If your host offers that, you can create a username and password and pass that to subscribers in the confirmation email they get from Aweber - along with the secure link where they can log in.

Thanks Lynn,

It is a good idea, however I would like to do it sort of automatic without my visitor noticing he is logging into my website. If I send him a login and password, part of my visiters might be scared away and miss out on the wonderfull products i sell

Although it is fully legit what i am doing, I don't like to explain why they had no access to the product website to start-off with. Like to keep it smooth.

It must be possible for a PHP script to register the IPaddress of my visiter and give that IP address automatic unrestricted access, or something with cookies.

I imagine there is - and you may want to check the Aweber FAQ & support to see if they mention anything like that. You just want to make sure that the links dont work if put into a browser, otherwise the search engines can easily index your pages (all it would take is one person linking to one of your pages on a forum or in their blog)...
