AdSense is not the end to monetize a blog, there are different Google AdSense Alternatives, which can be used to monetize a blog. One advertising network that has been able to show its mettle over a short span of time is Infolinks.
The best part is using Infolinks alongside AdSense does not violate its strict policies and can help you make extra income. For those who got rejected or banned from AdSense, Infolinks is must. Compared to AdSense, it’s easier to get approved by Infolinks and always works on benefiting the publisher by bringing in new ideas and methods to increase publisher’s revenue.
What is Infolinks?
Infolinks is a CPC and CPM based advertising network and offers in-text, in-frame, in-tag and in-fold ad types. Publishers have the full control on what types of ads can be displayed on the website. If you have many websites, you can monetize all of them with Infolinks once your one site gets approved.
How to Integrate Infolinks ads on your website?
Visit infolinks.com and click on the ‘Get now‘ button, enter the details required and Infolinks will verify your site. You will receive an email from them within 72 hours about approval or rejection. Once approved, you can log into the thoughtful and beautifully designed Publisher dashboard.
Inside it, click on ‘Integrate’ tab. It displays a JavaScript code which needs to be added into your site and start displaying Infolinks ads. If you aren’t familiar with coding, it helps you select the CMS platform you’re using and do the necessary steps required to show Infolinks ads on your website.
Next to Integrate, there’s a Customize tab through which you can explicitly customize the types of ads you want to display on your site.
Advantages of Infolinks:
- Easier to Get Approved and Integration – Google AdSense takes up to 7 days to get approval/rejection status with complicated steps. For Infolinks you’ll be notified within 72 hours and once approved, configuring ads from its dashboard is fairly simple. It’s the best-designed dashboard I’ve seen from any advertising network.
- Doesn’t affect Website Speed – Infolinks code is placed at the bottom of your website, it does not affect loading speed at all. Infolinks ads are loaded after every element on a web page gets loaded.
- Payment – Payment is done via Paypal, Payoneer and Wire after 45 days reaching Payment threshold of $50.
Possible Disadvantages:
- Less Payment for Asian Traffic – Infolinks is great if you receive traffic from US, UK and Canada. For Asian traffic, you might not earn much but if your site gets huge traffic from US, UK and Canada and other European countries, you can expect a good income from it.
At last, I want to know your take on Infolinks, if you’re using it let me know your experience with them. I’m looking forward to your responses. Thanks!
