My Infolinks Report – $500+ on its first month! | Randy Marasigan

My Infolinks Report: $500+ on its first month!

infolinks

Hi! This is my Infolinks report. I’ve been an Infolinks publisher for just over a month now and I must say that it’s all been good.

I signed up last April and I was approved just before May (about 2-3 days review and approval process). I joined Infolinks because other bloggers had already posted on how the in-text advertising service helped their monthly blog income. They say that Infolinks pays better than other in-text ad programs out there.

Personally, I can’t say that it’s better because I haven’t tried other programs. All I can say is that I’ve been very happy with Infolinks since the first week.

What is In-Text Advertising? In-Text advertising explained from Infolinks website

In-Text advertising inserts text link advertisements within the content of your website, usually in the form of double-underline hyperlinks. Upon a hover of the mouse, a floating informational bubble opens with content from an advertiser. If clicked, the visitor is directed to the advertiser’s landing page and you earn advertising revenue; otherwise, when the mouse is moved away from the hyperlink, the bubble disappears. Learn how to get started with In-Text Advertising today.

What makes Infolinks good?

1. You just have to copy-and-paste the code (javascript) on your blog and you’re good to go.
2. You can choose the color of links that will appear on your site.
3. They have a good and helpful support team. They answered my questions via email in less than 24 hours.
4. They are offering a PayPal payment which is very convenient for me.
5. The revenue I get from them is very very good. It’s actually in the far second spot with my Adsense earnings. (Not bad Infolinks! You’re still in the 2nd spot).

More of the revenue report below.

My Revenue Report

(You can click the images to enlarge)

infolinks-report-review-may-2009

May 2009 revenue: $512.03 (for 31 days)

infolinks-report-review-june-2009

June 2009 partial revenue: $213.77 (for 4 days)

  • For the month of May: I earned $512 with an average of $16.52 a day with 378 average clicks per day.
  • For the Month of June: With just 4 days, I already earned $213.77. What’s interesting here is the jump in average daily earnings to $53.44. If we compute the daily average earning multiplied by 30 (days), It will give me a total of $1603.2 for this month. Wow!

I’m displaying a maximum of 4 Infolinks in-text ads on my blogs (Just started to allow 5 links today). You can choose the max allowed number of highlighted links per page and also change the link style to double or single underline. Increasing the number of highlighted links may increase your CTR but I recommend that you keep it to just 5 to avoid the clutter of links on your page.

Conclusion:
I totally recommend Infolinks for bloggers and content publishers because of its high revenue possibilities. Infolinks may not be a complete replacement to Google adsense but it will give you a better monthly revenue.

Revenues may vary for different blogs depending on how high your traffic is. But I can assure you that the higher the traffic is, the higher the revenue. (Just compare the screen shots above). I suggest you concentrate on building your site’s traffic.

If you’re not an Infolinks publisher yet, then you can go to their sign-up page to start earning money. You can sign-up using my referral link here.

Di ako nagkamali sa pagboto ko sayo sa Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs. Cheers! Btw, can I hire you to make some SEO posts on a daily basis? Sipag! Hehe… Nice!

  • http://dailycontributor.com Randy

    Tyrone,

    Hindi naman ako SEO guru eh. hehe! Siguro timing lang and konting link building.
    Thanks sa pagboto kay DC sa Top 10 EIB mo. :D

    Hmmm magkano? haha! Eh baka ikaw gusto mo maging contributor sa DC. hehe!

  • http://www.millionaireacts.com/ Millionaire Acts

    So ibig sabihin ba hindi lang ikaw ang author dun sa DC? Hehe… Sassyqarla, showbiznewsblog, etc. sayo din? Nice talaga! Galing! I bet nasa $1K to $2K na total adsense mo nyan. How many hours iniispend mo nyan sa pagbloblog per day?

  • http://dailycontributor.com Randy

    Yup hindi lang ako. Di ko kaya mag-isa un. hehe! Yung Showbiz News sakin un pero hindi sakin yung sassyqarla.

    Pag weekend mejo matagal pero pag weekdays saglit lng, meron akong day job.

  • http://www.millionaireacts.com/ Millionaire Acts

    Ah ok. Anong day job mo if I may ask? I'm sure laki na ng naipon mo nyan sa adsense. Baka pwede na din magretire tuald nila Jehz and Sel. Hehe… So share share kayo ng revenue sa adsense nung daily contributor?

  • http://dailycontributor.com Randy

    I'm a Software Engineer.

    May sinend saking email interview si Paolo (phavile.com/blog) hintayin mo na lang. Parang andun din mga questions mo eh. hehe!

  • http://www.millionaireacts.com/ Millionaire Acts

    Ah sige. Looking forward to that. Thanks. Kudos to Daily Contributor. I am looking to buy for some developed blogs for now, pag napag-isipan mong ibenta si Daily Contributor, email mo ako. Pero sana mura lang. Hehe… :)

  • http://dailycontributor.com Randy

    Haha! Not a chance bro…

  • http://www.sassyqarla.com qarlaxoxo

    OMG.. MAKAPAGLAGAY NGA! Tnx hihi

  • http://dailycontributor.com Randy

    Sige ok yan! mas lalakas earnings mo. Eh malakas naman traffic ng sassyqarla eh.

  • http://www.sassyqarla.com/ qarlaxoxo

    Ang problema lang kasi sa Infolinks, akala ng readers eh links sa story, naiinis kasi sila dun parang naloloko sila. Baka mabadtrip, hindi bumalik.

    Hehe, ayaw mo itry yung Burst Network? $10 per hour ang kita namin dun.

  • http://dailycontributor.com Randy

    Hindi naman siguro. Na-bad trip ka ba dahil may infolinks ako sa blog nato? hindi ka na babalik? hehe!

    Ikaw pala mayaman eh. burstmedia dot com ba yan? Totoong $10 per hour? edi $240 a day?

  • http://www.sassyqarla.com qarlaxoxo

    Hindi naman sa ganun noh!

    Haha, yung $10 per hour pag 1k ang unique mo per hour, xempre iikot ikot pa yan so madadagdagan.

    Ok naman yung burst ko, kasisimula lang, 50% ang revenue share kaya mabigat pero a day pag malakas, $100 pag mahina ung site eh $30 lang, buong araw na, palubog na ata yung adsense, naku kahit ang daming click ambaba, pero love ko parin yung Google, hehe… ika nga nila, pag Google News ka, para kang nakahukay ng ginto sa bakuran.

  • http://www.sassyqarla.com qarlaxoxo

  • http://softwarecritics.info software_critics

    My blog was accepted in Infolinks but the hard part is implementing the program which might bring up conflicts of interest with my advertisers. I had second thoughts.

  • zalds

    kaibigan+sipag+tiyaga = $ infolinks, $ adsense.. $ chitika…..

    Congrats..

    p.s:
    Increase your infolinks more by contacting them.. mag regquest ka ng better rev share or premium publisher.. isang email lang un at sure tataas lalo ang infolinks earning mo.

    regards,
    zalds

  • http://dailycontributor.com Randy

    Hi Zalds! Thanks for dropping by my site.

    About the request of revenue share, how should I approach them? Thanks for this info.

  • zalds

    Shay from infolinks left a comment.. she is account manager.

    send her email and ask modestly if you are qualified for a special rev share.
    If you own blog network.. it will be a + point.. you can also mention the DC which is doing really well..

    Seek and You Shall Find.. :)

    regards,
    zalds

  • http://www.candypastel.com/ Sheryl

    WOOW! nakakainspire naman, ung earnings ko sa infolinks before talaga ang baba, but then nung nagSEO ako tumataas-taas, pero kelangan ko pang magimproved kasi mababa parin ung click nya per day unlike sayo WAAH!. Wala namang problema sa traffic ko actually 1k+ unique visitors per day nakukuha kong traffic pero ayun nga, nakadepende parin sa visitors kung magcliclick sila o hindi haha. Grabe for 4 days palang naka $200+ ka na… hanep at astig talaga. Thanks for inspiring us… share more of your tips. :D

    I think max 12 ung sinet kong number of links per page dun sa infolinks, kelangan babaan tama ba?

    btw eto ym ko: sherealicious@yahoo.com

  • http://dailycontributor.com Randy

    12 links is OK. Just make sure you have longer post to make that 12 links appear on you blog.

    Thanks din! Cheers!

  • http://dailycontributor.com Randy

    Adsense is number one in my book

  • http://www.bukisa.com/articles/287622_bob-ong-quotes bob ong

    by reading your post im inspired. grabe taas ng kita mo sa infolinks with that amount i can quite my day job and concentrate more on blogging.. my blog earning sa infolinks is 5 cents a day. i have to concentrate on generating more traffic to my blogs. but the thing about infolinks is that the ads is scattered around my site. i want infolinks to concetrate on my post para madaming clicks.

    I use infolinks. it is so good

  • http://qualitypoint.blogspot.com/ Rajamanickam

    today I implemented infolinks ads along with AdSense. Let me see how it is is going.

  • http://businesstips.ph Vic @ Business Tips Blog

    Had landed here from searching infolinks review on Google. So glad to find rich information here from my counttrymen. $500 from infolinks alone is already a self-sustaining income. How much more when it’s combined with your Adsense and Chitika. More power!
