Chitika: Search Targeted Revenue Model
Chitika is around for many years but to be honest I’ve just started to use this revenue model that chitika offers. I was aware of their service but I don’t know why chitika always focuses on advertising its so called “chitika premium ads” where I’ll review later on this post. Chitika offers 3 types of advertising models:
- Chitika Premium (eMiniMalls)
- Chitika WhiteSpace Ads
- Chitika Linx
When I checked my users resolution property from analytics, I realized that only 11 percent of my visitors are still using 800×600 resolution depth… And all others have higher resolutions. So I searched for a way to get some income from this white space areas shown to my visitors and in that search, I re-explored chitika, chitika white space ads. Then I started to use chitika products on my site and I am highly glad for this extra money coming in 
Here is the overview of Chitika services.
Chitika Premium (eMini Malls):
Chitika‘s favorite program. Anyone who comes to your site via Google, Yahoo, etc., will receive an unobtrusive text ad based on the keyword they used to find you. Chitika Premium ads don’t show up to untargeted visitors like regular readers for example. Chitika Premium ads only show up on search engine traffic from USA and Canada. If your visitors are not coming from search engines and if they are not from USA and Canada, they will not see the ad (but you can show them alternate ads if you like to do so). Since the ads displayed are targeted to the search terms, the click ratio is high compared to other programs around so does the income
Chitika White Space Ads:
My favorite Chitika service is white space ads It is in fact just like chitika premium. The only downside of chitika white space ads is when visitors coming from search engine and if they are from coming from EU or Asian countries, intead of seeing nothing, they will see chitika white space ads floading banner though in chitika premium ads, they see nothing or alternate ads you want to be shown. Beside this lack of feature, chitika white space ads are just like chitika premium ads. If your visitors coming from US/Canada and coming from a search engine, the click through ratio will be really high and so does your income. If your users resolution is 800×600 pixel or lower, they will simply see no ads. To use chitika white space ads, there must be some white pages in your site template of course 
So if your site or blog uses a template that widens the content according to the users browsers resolution, you can’t use chitika white space ads for obvious reason: there is no whitespace!
Chitika Linx:
Chitika Linx is in-text advertising solution offred by chitika. Chitika Linx will automatically identify key products/keywords mentioned in the content on your website or blog and hyperlink (double underline) those keywords to interactive paid (CPC-based) product listings featuring best deals, offers and promotions from name brand merchants. When users mouse-over these links, a small bubble-like scroll over is revealed listing offers from merchants. Chitika linx in-text advertising solution gives additional revenue stream to you with no effort and no extra ad-space.
Although Chitika services are available worldwide, keep in mind that only if you have US/Canada visitors and search engine traffic, Chitika will improve your earnings 
The accumulated earnings can be cahed our via paypal (10$ minimum) or via check (50$ minimum). There is no requirements for traffic volume but your sites must be in English…
Hope you like chitika services and find it as profitable as I do
tnx.net Review as Text Link Advertisement Service
tnx.net text link advertisement service is around since 2007. They call themselves as “text link revolution” and they offer an interface for text link market to buy and sell text links with ease.
What I like most about tnx.net text link advertisement service is you can sell text links even from your PR=0 web pages. And if you have a website, blog or forum, you already know how hard to get links to those low page ranked pages… The automation of tnx.net text link advertisement service just takes care of this and put links on PR=0 web pages also. All they ask is 12,5% of commission for each links sold on your site and this is one of the best, if not the best, offer for webmasters seeking text link advertisement on their webpages.
The price of a link changes according to several factors although pagerank is the main factor to be considered on tnx.net text link advertisement service. Here is a avarage selling price of a link placed on a page according to pagerank:
- PR0: 0,00128$
- PR1: 0,063$
- PR2: 0,126$
- PR3: 0,252$
- PR4: 0,63$
- PR5: 1,26$
- PR6: 3,15$
- PR7: 6,30$
These are avarage values and exact price depends on other factors as well such as inbound and outbound links, etc. tnx.net has a point system and you can exchange those points with money or credit. So tnx.net text link advertisemetn sytem offers following exchange methods:
- You can use your points to advertise your own website or web pages. For each website, webpage you can create upto 5 different information and key phrases.
- You can sell your points to tnx.net and request your money to be sent to your paypal account. 1000 tnx points can be exchanged around 0,95$ at the time of this writing.
- You can sell your points to other tnx.net members and again ask tnx.net to send the money generated to your paypal account.
As a text link provider, the income generated throguh tnx.net text link advertisement service is quite good but there are some good and bad sides of tnx text link advertisement system.
ADVANTAGES of TNX.NET:
- Even if you have a zero page ranked wep pages, you can take links all of them.
- The payment is done within 72 hours to your paypal account after you requested.
- Selling text link is so easy. They have built-in plugins for widely used CMS or forum softwares like wordpress, phpbb, joomla, vbulletin, etc. Also they support following platforms to isntall their script: php, cgi, asp, aspx
- If you refer other webmasters, bloggers to their system you can earn lifetime commissions of 13,3%.
- Since they have different links on each individual pages of your sites, it is unlikely to be banned from search engines because of text link buying/selling activity.
- Selling different links on each of your pages instead of selling site-wide one link may effect your overall income positively.
- Minimum payment threshold is only 5$ through paypal.
DISADVANTAGES of TNX.NET:
- You can’t decide which links can be shown on your individual pages.
- If you don’t have many webpages in your site, your income will be highly low
- It would help to be accepted to the network if your main site’s page rank value is 1 or above.
- At least 30 pages must be indexed by search engines to be accepted to the tnx.net text link advertisement service.
- I do not recommend to publish more than 1 link from tnx.net text link advertisement service if you care about your search engine position and pagerank value.
- The affiliate system is not immediately available to new members and you need to ask them to get special codes. All new users only can send invites through email…
- I recommend to use tnx.net codes on low pageranked value pages instead of sites main page. Many webmasters repoted to have page rank decrease after using text link advertisement services including tnx.net.
So tnx.net text link advertisement service is a higly profitable service IF you have lots of pages in your website. I highly recommend tnx.net text link advertisement service to forum owners, blogs with multi-user generated contents, or social media sites where users provide contents.
tnx.net is also very nice place to get backlinks to your website/blogs but act slow in creating backlinks to your website instead of getting thousands of backlinks in short time interval…
Free Directory Submission Softwares
After creating content, it is an obligation to get backlinks. One of the ways for getting backlinks is directory submission. In general directories do not provide visitors but they can provide backlinks and backlinks can provide better page rank values in google search engine mainly so better listing on search engine results. If you search through, you will see lot’s of services providing directory submission service with some free but there are lot’s of directory submission softwarea around and they have limited directory submission offers for free. If you like the service you can upgrade to paid service anytime you want but mainwhile you keep using them as a free software…
Here I list some free directory submission softwares that I personally used. Hope they help you to gain some backlinks with little effort
Fast Directory Submitter: Fast directory submitter provides free submission to 150 directories having different page rank values. The good news is every so often the directory list updates itself So it allows new directories and refresh its database so often to submit your website/blog:) Paid version provides aprx. 3000 directory submission. You have to create a free account first, to start using fast directory submitter. It is quick and hassle free prosess. After creating your account you log in to the software and start creating campaigns for your blogs/websites.
The most important step in creating campaigns are titles! So either in fast directory submission or any other submission softwares you use, pay attention to use carefully chosen titles for quality backlinks! Its express submission module gives express submission to directories within 20 minutes! Fast direcoty submission allows to use your own directory list to submit your websites/blogs but in this case they do not provide express submission option which slows down submission process..
Digixmas: It has almost the same features with fast directory submitter but they provide 150 directories of 0 pagerank values only instead of diffrent pagerank values! But since pagerank differs by time, digixmas updates its direcory database often so you have a cahnce to submit your site to new 0 pagerank directories and meantime the submitted direcories with new pagerank values still providing you backlinks…
Digixmas category finder is slightly better compared to Fast directory submitter but really slightly. For me these 2 are the most fastest way to build backlinls from directories within minutes… And do you know what, many people even get paid for this directory submission job But why do we need to pay anybody while we have chance to create 300 hundret links just by these 2 softwares within 40-50 minutes
To start using Digixmas you have to create an account first. Opening an account is free and quick process… Again give precision to your Titles. Both digixmas and fast directory submitter allows you to create more than one title for any of your websites/blogs to prevent spam blockage from search engines.
Submiteaze:Submiteaze is my first directory submission software to check out. It provides free submission to 150 directories as well Turbo submission was a little buggy in my computer So I use manual submission.
The bad thing about this software is it is slow (manual submission since I coudn’t use turbo submission modul effectively) compared to either digixmas or fast directory submitter. But when you are thinking about link building using directories and ready to pay, it is cheaper comparebly since submiteaze asks one time payment for all your websites/blogs but the previous two softwares asks 15-20$ per each websites/blogs you have. But the submission process really takes time although for many, this is more safer not to get attention from search engines as backlink spam…
Those 3 softwares provides over 400 directory submission and i use them occasionally to get backlinks to my websites… And there is also a website offering free directory submission to 150 directories called ResellerGo . I liked their submission interface and it is quite quick in submiision. All you have to care about your keywords since it matches the directories wth relevent keywords and also has an option to submit directories with or without captcha confirmation. As time of this article there were over 400 directories without captcha confirmation for quick submission

Sell Links via Teliad to Improve Pagerank
Teliad is a marketplace for advertisers and webmasters and bloggers to buy and sell links through their interface to improve pagerank for buyers and to get another income stream for webmasters and bloggers. Teliad is a German firm and accepts all international members without any country or language restriction. Beside that, teliad marketplace interface is available in English, German, Spanish, French and Italian. Alongside the consistent expansion and improvement of the product range, the current corporate strategy is aimed at growth. “Internationalisation is an important part of the corporate strategy. We are growing rapidly. The numbers of enquiries and registrations from new foreign customers have increased strongly during the past few months. However, it has been difficult up to now for foreign customers to find their way in the German marketplace. We are now very well equipped with German, English, Spanish, French and Italian and can reach a large target group. Through the English marketplace in particular we can reach customers all over the world. English is understood by a large proportion of web users, especially those who are involved in e-commerce. We are sure that we will grow quickly internationally. Even now, awareness of teliad already exists beyond the borders of Germany,” explains Andreas Armbruster, founder and CEO of teliad.
Teliad offers 3 types of income stream. First one is text link option to sell links to buyers who seek to improve pagerank of their sites. This is the simplest method to earn money also since you offer direct HTML text links in your websites or in your bl0gs without any content creation, just simple HTML text links. You decide where to link to advertisers websites from your site or blog, how long a text-link should be, how much money you want to earn to sell links and whether this link will be placed sitewise or just on some specific pages. For me, in my blogs, I prefer site-wise linking but for my specific pages or content, I ask special prices also. For example you may use this service for high page-rank articles or webpages as “content sponsors”…
The other income stream from teliad is to offer InLink advertisement. Inlinks are text links that can be booked inside a text which the seller has specified. In the case of InLinks, the seller offers specific bookable keywords within an exisiting (or future) text on the website, e.g. in an article or a blog posting. As opposed to a Content-Link which will be explained later, the buyer cannot specify his own text, but instead can book bookable keywords suggested by the seller. However, buyers additionally have the possibility to suggest alternative keywords. Following the booking, the static word is linked to the buyer’s URL.
And the last income stream from teliad is content links. Content-Links are text links with a descriptive content written by the advertiser himself. The buyer can book a complete section or area of the website content, which he can then place himself. Depending on the offer, this can be a small recommendation text or even a complete article or blog posting. The buyer sets a text link at any desired place within this section. The seller then integrates the text including the link in the offered URL. As the seller, you can specify the maximum number of characters for content texts. It is something like other get paid to blog or get paid to review opportunites to write about or to review something in your websites.
The payment is done through paypal or by direct bank trasfer. Though, in latter case, the transfer costs will be deducted from your income. I have been using teliad in some of my websites for last few months and I am highly satisfied from the results.
InfoLinks: In Text Advertising
Infolinks is an in text advertising service, providing advertising text highlighted in your content. Like other competitors in in text advertising arena, infolinks, too, hyperlinks the targeted in text ads directly into the text of the webpage. Infolinks and most in text advertising networks have the following characteristics in common:
- The text associated with an advertisement in infolinks is identified by a double-underline to differentiate it from regular hyperlinks. The link colors can be matched to your sites style easily.
- An in page floating window containing in text advertising content, appears when the cursor is positioned over the corresponding text. If in text advertising clicked, the visitor is directed to the advertiser’s landing page and you earn advertising revenue from this in text advertisement; otherwise, when the mouse is moved away from the hyperlink, the in text advertising window disappears.
- Since infolinks in text ads are tightly integrated with your content – no additional space required
- Infolinks doesnt ask any commitments and free to sign up. So there is no risk involved in signing up to infolinks in text advertisement.
Infolinks is highly popular in text advertising network compared to others since there is no restriction of any minimum number of visitors to get approved, like in other ad networks. Here, all small and big blogs and websites are welcome to join. For my experience, Infolinks type in text advertising is highly effective on content rich blogs and forums as well as other content rich websites. 12 % of my income generated from infolinks in text advertising network as of this writing.
Payment is done through paypal or directly to your bank account. At the end of each monthly payment period, Infolinks calculates your earnings for that month and issues your payment within 45 days of the end of the payment period, with the exception of monthly earnings of less than $100 which remain in your account and are added into the following month’s earnings.
Blog Advertising: 125Exchange
125Exchange is a blog advertising service where you can advertise your blog with 3 different banners. The good part is, since many doesn’t know how to design the banner, they allow text advertisement in a 125×125 square block also. So if you are new to banner advertising but want to advertise your blog you can directly start the service. So they basically allow bloggers 2 choice to start blog advertising.
- You can upload a banner from your computer or from an internet adress for blog advertising. If you use this option, do not forget, the smaller the size of your banner is always better for blog advertising. They must have 125×125 pixels and smaller than 30kb.
- Second option is to create an html advertisement to fit in 125×125 square. for blog advertising.
125exchange blog advertising service allows you to target your banners (again, maximum 3 banners allowed) according to day, hour and country of origin. So you can limit your banners to be shown on some days or hours and only to the visitors of some specific counties. This option, I mean country targeting is quite usefull for blog advertising especially if your blog is targeted to some countries.
Every 3 clicks on blog advertising on your site will bring 2 clicks back to your site from other bloggers from this blog advertising network, 125exchange. So it is better to put their code some visible part of the blog to benefit from this blog advertising network. When you sign up, they reward free 5000 free banner impressions on their blog advertising network sites. They have a referral program also. So for every blogger signing up to this blog advertising network through your referral links, will gain you 10% of whatever blog advertising traffic they get forever.
PayPerPost: Get Paid to Write
In fact payperpost service is widely used by many bloggers because of its ease of use. The concept is simple… Blogger writes posts linking to an advertisers website, stated on the advertisers guidelines for the post, and after the post has been live for 30 days online, the blogger gets paid thorughpayperpost via paypal. Payperpost act as an intermediary agent between the blogger and the advertiser… After the sign up, you can search through a list of available opportunities, make a blog posting about it, get your content approved, and get paid. It’s that simple. There are some requirements to be eligible to get paid for your posts though:
- They only accept bloggers. Not websites, forums, or other web publications.
- The content must be written in English. Although the service is available internationally.
- Content must be original.
- Blog must be 30 days old at least…
- Blogs must have a chronological archive to verify age. Categorical only archives will not be accepted to their system.
- Blogs submitted to the marketplace may not include or support: excessive profanity, violence, or racial intolerance, illicit drugs or drug paraphernalia, pornography, adult or mature content, or any other content that promotes intolerance, illegal activity, or infringes on the legal rights of others.
What I dont’ like with this service is they do not allow inline advertising in your blog (such as Kontera, Adbrite Intext, etc…). Plus they do not allow vlogs (video logs) and photologs to their system either and also blogs whose entries are made up entirely of song lyrics, quotes, poems, online quizzes/surveys, information directories, or other such lists that do not constitute written entries, blogs with more than one contributor/author (community blogs) and “Blog for money” community blogs such as BlogCharm, BloggerParty and WritingUp.com can not benefit from this service. The payment is made through paypal.
Smorty: Get Paid To Write
There are lot’s of altenatives around about get paid to write about your opinions. Smorty.com is just one of them. On this site you will be get paid to write about anything you like… The service is simply a bridge between you, bloggers, and advertisers. Advertisers start campaigns with them and they deliver them to the right bloggers for publishing an opinion on their blogs. And thay way they help you to earn free money from your blogs, pre-paid by advertisers. The problem is, your content must be approved by them to get paid. There are some criterias to have an approved content as mush as possible to get paid to write… On their site they have mentioned some of the criterias:
- Your blog must be indexed by Google and Yahoo
- Your blog must be older than 3 months
- Your blog must not contain any violent, hate related or adult content
- Your blog must be active and have a history of minimum average 2 new posts per week
- The blog must not have duplicate posts or excessive duplicate content
As a blogger you can make money from adsense or other contectual advertising system so the question is why will you sign up with this service to get paid to write? First, it is free to sign up. Second, the advertisers pay you from start, so you don’t wait for someone to click on the ads on your post to get paid. If you are good reviewer and blog writer you can make between 6$ and 100$ per review you made on your blog. So it is a good extra income just to get paid to write your opinions. Afterall, you can still use the contextual advertising such as adsense or others in your site. So this is just another way of free income to what you do already, blogging to get paid to write.
To get paid to write from this system you need to sign up, if you are choosen as a blogger for a specific product, service, etc. you need to complete too write about it withing 24 hours period. Then wait for advertiser to approve your content through smorty.com. This may take maximum 5 days but yo are using your contextual ad provider by the same time for this post already… If your post is declined by advertiser then you will lose that task and will not be paid for it. If the post is sent back asking for changes, you have 24 hours to fix it and submit the post again in your admin panel. But as I said even it is declined you have a content for your contextual ads provider
If the content is approved, smorty will pay you through paypal. So if you still do not have a paypal account get one by clicking here… Payments are made weekly which is a good turnaround time.
The service is available internationally but… your site’s main language and so the reviews/blogs must be written in English to be eligible for extra free money. Do not forget though, you are getting paid for your own effort, unique content and opinions. So copying others articles is a reason to be banned from the system…
Happy blogging and profitable days…

Earn Cash by Squidoo
Squidoo is an online community. The idea behind this online community was very simple and easy to explain: allow anyone to build a single page, called a lens, on a topic that he or she is passionate about. The person building the lens, called “lensmaster”, gets recognition as an expert in his or her area of expertise, and earn cash. Squidoo shares a percentage of profits either with its authors, charity organizations or mixture of both set by the author. The payment threshhold is really minimum. Just 1 $!(The default value is 10$ so you need to change this if you like it to be lower or higher)… Your earnings can be paid through paypal.
The best part about squidoo is you are the owner of your content. No approval process is in charge. You publish your blog and according to the reputation you get, you earn cash. They share 50% of income generated through your blogs with you. You do not need to do anything except blogging about your favorite topics to earn cash… The idea seems to be nice and the famous writer of Seth Godin(renowned writer of PurpleCow) is behind this concept.
They also have a rewarded referral program to let you earn more cash. Refer a friend to be a Squidoo lensmaster and as soon as your friend’s lens earns its first $15, you AND your friend will each get $5, free! Sounds cool, huh? When you create your lenses, you can even enrich it by adding modules such as delicious bookmarks, google blog search, amazon voting, fickr photos, rss feeds, poll module and many more…
