I wanted to post this simple tutorial on how to make simple redirection without mysql. With .htaccess you can make the url more simpler so it look more SEO. Let's Start, It won't take long! Approx. time: 1 min.
First create a file named redirect.php;
in redirect.php

<?php
/**** Open PHP Tag then identify your variables**/
$aff=$_GET['n'];
/*** URL will be in this format http://yoursite.com/redirect.php?<b>n</b>=p2l so we GET n from URL**/
/*** let say my url is http://yoursite.com/redirect.php?<b>n</b>=myfriend it will redirect to http://myfriendsite.com**/
if($aff=="myfriend") {
header('Location: http://myfriendsite.com');
}
elseif($aff=="google") {
header('Location: http://www.google.com');
}
else {
header('Location: http://mysite.com');
}
/*** you can do 100000's of elseif **/
/*** close PHP**/
?>
open notepad and name a new file ".htaccess"
in .htaccess; EDITED ==> This only code will direct all of your tags!

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^go/([0-9a-z]*)/?$ /redirect.php?n= [NC,L]
Now the coding part is done. WITH the .htaccess you can redirect in this format http://mysite.com/go/google will redirect you to google or if your server don't support .htaccess your url will be like this: http://mysite.com/redirect.php?n=google will do the same thing.
It's not that hard, Probably The Simplest tutorial there.
