Internet Marketing Notes

I didn’t pay much attention to it earlier. I should have… it’s Text Link Ads (TLA). The ads are in the form of paid text links embedded within a site.

To date, I’ve gotten a little over $320 in total from Text Link Ads within the last few months of this year. This is from a software development-related site of mine.

I know TLA has made thousands’ of dollars a month for some publishers but consider this: That “small” amount I’ve earned so far from TLA is still worth 3-4 years of my web hosting fees for that site. Not bad!

One of the advertisers is a web hosting company. I’m considering hosting with them. Maybe it’s just my way of paying them back but seriously, they have a good package.

Caveat

I’d like to share this with everyone: Beware of advertisers who use TLA to increase a site’s Page Rank (PR) rather than to gain genuine exposure for a product. Google doesn’t like this form of paid text links and the consequences to both advertiser/publisher could be disastrous.

That aside, TLA also has a good affiliate program and if you’re not on TLA, it’s certainly worth a look!
