How to Make Money with Infolinks In Text Ads

How to Increase Infolinks Earnings

Infolinks is an in text advertising network that serves pay per click ads on a publisher blog/website. It is considered as one of the highest paying advertising networks, especially for bloggers who do not have extra space to displays ads.

Infolinks ads are displayed as double under links that target specific words in page. So, whenever a reader hovers his mouse over specific words, a relevant word is displayed and if he moves the mouse away, the ad disappears. If the reader clicks on that particular link, he is taken to the advertiser’s page and you get paid in return.

Infolinks text ads are compatible with other ads and if you are also using Google Adsense in your blog, you do not have to worry about anything since Google allows in text ads to run along with adsense ads. Having both of them running together is definitely a good way to boost your income.

How Much Does Infolinks Pay Per Click?

Infolinks pay much higher in comparison to other advertising networks but not as high as Google Adsense.  Most in-text ad providers pay in between 40% to 50% of their total income while Infolinks pays up to 70%. On average, you get paid $0.02 – $0.5 per click.
