InfoLinks – An In-Text Advertising Leader And 4 Tips To Make More Money Using It
How would you like earning money from your blog whenever someone clicks a highlighted text on your blog? This can be done with the help of In-Text ads on your site which will highlight some keywords on your blog as if you have hyper-linked it to some page.
In-Text advertising is not a new thing but it has become a popular way earning online amongst website owners as it provides clean integration of ads for which they make money on pay per click basis.
In past few years, InfoLinks have really come ahead and standing strong as a Leader in providing In-Text advertising and making publisher make money online with it’s program.
InfoLinks started in 2007 is now serving thousands of publishers with in-text ads and many of them are saying that “It Rocks”. I have also been using InfoLinks from many months and the results have been way better that I have thought of. You can really see it as an alternative to Google Adsense if you are looking for a clean income source and problem getting into Adsense program and their stupid conditions.
Watch this cool video about InfoLinks recently conducted “Double For Bubble” challenge in which many people showed their love to Infolinks:
Integrating InfoLinks Is Like 1, 2 & 3!
Integration of InfoLinks to your blog is way simple than you can think. You just have to copy the script from your account and paste it to the appropriate website after Ending BODY tag. If you are using Wordpress Platform, then it’s more simpler to do it by the use of free plugins available on web.
The script will do the rest of work! You don’t have to go through any boring process as in other PPC ads networks in which you have to think too much about where to paste the ad block code etc.
Still Having Problem Integrating? Try Their Friendly Support
If you have any problem in integrating the ad code or anything related to InfoLinks, then you can just simply ask for the help from their Customer Support. They will surely answer you within 24hrs.
Recently, I was having a problem that the InfoLinks ads were not appearing ion this blog, I looked but didn’t found any resolution so I though to give their support a try. And Yes, their support replied with the resolution for my problem which was just my stupid mistake of using InfoLinks turn on/off feature in wrong manner and I was happy to get InfoLinks back on the blog.
You Will Be Happy With Earnings & They Pay At Time!
If you have great amount of traffic coming from countries like U.S , Canada, UK etc. then you can be happy to see high earnings with InfoLinks as most of the advertisers bid higher for traffic coming for those countries.
InfoLinks pays at the accurate time which they told. They pay after the end of every month when you account income reaches $100.
You can cash out from your Paypal, Bank Account or a Special Payoneer Master card created for InfoLinks users.
4 Tips To Make More Money With Infolinks
By using infolinks for so many months, I have tried various ways to improve my earnings. By doing hit & trial methods, I came to the conclusiion that these tips/steps could improve the intext advertising revenue:
1. Single Underline Works Best
While integrating infolinks on your blog/website you can choose to show intext ads keywords highlighted by single underline or double underline. From what I have concluded from past, single underline might work the best.
Why? This is because single underline creates an ad blindness and in it appears like as if you have hyper-linked something. So most of the time, a person will just go and click that “single underlined” keyword thinking that it’s something important being shared by you.
You can increase this “Ad Blindness” by using the below mentioned 2nd tip.
2. The Blue Color Confusion
As we all know that Blue Color has been most common color for hyperlinked words. Whenever a person see a word highlighted with blue color and single underlined, most probably he will think of clicking it, as “blue color” have created that kind of mindset.
Using blue color while integrating infolinks could simply increase your earnings very much.
On an alternate way, you can also think of matching the intext ads color with your blog default color for hyperlinked words.
3. Making Use Of High Paying Keywords
This is a very cool trick. While writing your article, try to include some keywords related to your article which could are usually bid high by the the advertisers. To know those keywords, you can make use of Google Adwords Keyword Tool(just google it). It will help you to find such keywords, if you don’t have any experience in high paying keywords in your industry.
I suggest it to use this tip very efficiently as this will not only increase your infolinks earnings but also improve the keyword density of that article and you will be unknowingly doing search engine optimization for your blog 
But remember not to overdo it!
4. Turn That Off
For what reason does your readers visit your blog/website? For looking your sidebar? For checking the top commentators list or something like that? NO! They visit to read your articles…
Infolinks have a very cool feature with the help of which you can easily turn infolinks ads ON and OFF on your desired pages/areas. This can be done by inserting two simple lines to those pages/areas where you don’t want the ads to be shown. These codes are:
So, I suggest you to show infolinks ads only your content and close it everywhere i.e sidebars, comments section, footer etc. You will surely see great earning with this trick.
Conclusion
If you are depressed by not getting an adsense account & it’s earnings and also not happy with any other ad networks then I would strongly suggest you to go for Infolinks. They don’t have any special conditions for some countries(like in adsense). They will just review you website and accept it. It’s a clean income source. It doesn’t take any space on your blog and you will be still earning a nice income.

I have been reluctant to try infolinks as I personally don’t like them. So many sites seem to go overboard with the amount of links, and I am visiting more and more blogs that use them within their comments. That being said, I may re-consider the use of infolinks now that I know you can select to have single underline. Do you know if it is possible to have them on certain sections within a selected page of your blog?

I tried using infolinks on my blogs for two days only, but get very little success. I removed infolinks adds from my blogs. Another reason why I remove infolinks ads from my blog as I becomes a bit difficult to read a blog content with infolinks on.

Anil; Two days is such a small time span. You should at least try it for a week to see the real action.

I tried infolinks in my blog for few days, but it didn’t convert well..I got few clicks a day but the rate for a click was pretty low..as low as few little cents.. I can earn better with Adsense with the number of clicks.
No doubt, many people is still using it and having good earning..perhaps it’s not for my blog.

Infolinks works best if you have majority of visitors coming from countries like US, UK and Canada. This is because advertisers pay/bid higher for showing their ads to people from these countries as people in such countries usually have the open mindset of purchasing stuffs online.

Oh I see, now I know why they paid low rate for my click, perhaps most of my traffic not from US, UK or Canada, that was why they paid low. Anyway, I’ll give it a try again when my major visitors from countries like US, UK and Canada, they stand at 3rd or 4th place right now.

I know bloggers that have great success with infolinks, I used it temporarily on my site and was discouraged by the low pay per click I was getting too. After reading this, maybe more testing is needed…
PS: I noticed a link in the comments here even though you mentioned not doing that

Strange to know that. I am also watching intext ads on footer whereas I have added disabled infolinks there..
I think this have started just recently and the reason behind is that I am currently playing with some cache plugins which might be obstructing infolinks in some way. I am looking over it

Seems interesting, but I noticed that the “ads” are from only two advertisers. Not really very related to the keyword being linked.

I completely agree over to you in this. It’s one of the main problem with almost all the intext advertising solutions. The only thing you can do to solve it is just report infolinks about some URL’s which you don’t want to show up.

I had infolinks on a couple of my blogs for about a month and I think I made about 10cents from one click and in the same time I made $50 from adsense. Maybe it is because my blogs are Australia traffic focused, but I just wasn’t getting any clicks.

I heard lot about infolinks but not this much. Infolinks is an ad-network which presents the next generation of in-text advertising that promises the highest revenue shares possible.

Naah..Clicksor is not good enough..Only there Pop Up and Interstitial Ads could generate good revenue if you have a site having more than 25K Traffic per month.
I haven’t tried their intext ads after I moved to wordpress. I tried it for few days on SmartBloggerz when I was using blogspot platform. The revenue generated with it wasn’t enough then I gave a try to InfoLinks and from that time till now, I am using InfoLinks…
