Making money with Text Link Ads

Posted by The Technocrat | Filed under Web

Raining MoneyYou’ve probably seen technology websites where specific words are double-underlined and hyperlinked. These are Text Link Ads, and seen to be the “next big thing” in context-based advertising. I’ve signed GeekLimit up for a Text Link Ad account, and will be reporting on its effectiveness vs. Adsense after 30 days of trying it out.

    The double underline and hyperlinked text link ads are done by Intellitxt, not Text-link-ads. Text-link-ads pay you for simply having a text link on your site, whether it be in your sidebar, header, footer or wherever. they are static and are paid on a monthly basis.

    For an example of this, visit http://www.thatedeguy.com and look in the upper right hand corner. The marroon/red block with text in it is a text-link-ads ad block.

    As for the text-link-ads vs. adsense, at the moment, the text-link-ads are nearly doubling the adsense.

    ah ha! As I haven’t yet activated the text-link-ads on this site, I hadn’t noticed. I’ll have to check out Intellitxt as well, and do a 3-way comparison!

    thanks for the info!

    Hi, I just found you via google. I’m also using K2 and want to add TLA but since K2 uses dynamic sidebars, how did you put the TLA code in the template? I tried using a sidebar widget but the code doesn’t activate – it needs to be put right into the sidebar file I think. Anyway, any and all help appreciated. Cheers

    Put it in the K2 theme code, not the K2 template code itself.

    cheers
