I just found out today that I won $15.00 from Adgitize‘s Affiliate Promo for October 2010. I’m in shock! When I checked my Paypal account, voila! The $15.00 prize is already there. Here’s the proof:

The Note part says:

Subject:
Congratulations. You are an Adgitize Affiliate Promotion Winner

Note:
Congratulations. You have sponsored the most new member advertisers for the week of October 17th through October23rd. You are one of two winners and you both will split the $15 winning prize for the week. Plus, since there were no winners from last week you will split last week’s winnings. This means you each will split another $15. So, you each will receive $15 this week from Adgitize for being the top weekly affiliate promotion winners. Here is your $15 winnings. Thank you for being an Adgitize Member affiliate and sponsoring new advertisers into the Adgitize Ad Network. For more information about the promotion check out this article on the Adgitize Blog, http://www.adgitize.com/blog/default.aspx/28/Adgitize-Affiliate-Promotion-for-October-2010. Sincerely, Ken Brown Adgitize

Hurry and join now! You’ve got ’til October 31st. I do hope this will continue on to the following months.

Now, you might be wondering what Adgitize is all about. You can check my article on Adgitize to know more. But, to make it short, Adgitize is an advertising network where you can earn money from as a publisher (blogger) or an advertiser.

I am currently an advertiser in Adgitize and I pay only $14.00 per month for advertising for my blog – Just Another Pixel. I easily earn that money back because of my advertising points and publisher points. You can read more about that here.

So, you see, advertising in Adgitize pays for itself. You can check my payment proofs from Adgitize if you want to see how much money I’ve already earned from them.

If you would like to be a mere blogger in the Adgitize network and make money through them, then, that’ll be okay. I’m just saying that advertising in Adgiize is affordable and you would love how much more visitors and comments your blog is getting.

If you want your blog to be "seen" by fellow bloggers, especially if it’s a fairly new blog, then, might as well advertise with Adgitize if you can afford the $14.00. I actually have another blog advertised in Adgitize – Certified Foodies. It’s fun getting to know more bloggers out there.

Here’s my payment from Adgitize for the month of August. I started advertising our food blog, Certified Foodies, in the Adgitize network around the middle of August, so that’s why I have over $14.00 of earnings. I’m checking if I’d be able to get back my investment of $28.00 for advertising of 2 blogs in the Adgitize network. I’ll let you know about how it went in my next payment from Adgitize, okay?

How to Make Money Online with InfoLinks Related Tags

I have posted a guide yesterday on how to setup and make money online with InfoLinks on your blogs or website. InfoLinks made it very easy for bloggers to integrate it with our blogs so you can start making money online just as easily.

With InfoLinks Related Tags, they make it more possible for us to increase our earnings through the informational tags that we can insert wherever we want. The Infolinks algorithm will choose the BEST and most relevant keywords to your contents and display them within the Related Tags cloud.

What’s good about using InfoLinks Related Tags is you can insert it ANYWHERE within your blog posts or contents. You have full control. For instance, I want to place the Related Tags below this paragraph.

There! All I have to do is insert the InfoLinks Related Tags script wherever I want, as long as I have already integrated the InfoLinks script for my blog (click here for the guide). Below is the code for the Related Tags:

<input type="hidden" name="IL_RELATED_TAGS" value="1"/>

You can find this script on the Related Tags section when you login to your InfoLinks account, as shown below.

Because you have full control over the placement of the InfoLinks Related Tags script, you can make adjustments whenever you want if you think that the current position of the ads doesn’t bring you that much revenue.

Another reason why I like the InfoLinks Related Tags is its layout or format. They’re not in-text links. It appears as a related tags cloud so most of your readers will be more inclined to check out and click on the links. This will greatly increase my revenue, especially on this blog. As I’ve mentioned in my previous post about InfoLinks, they’re my main source of income on Pinay Online Money Maker.

One thing that I would like to see as an additional feature though is a full look customization option for the InfoLinks Related Tags cloud. I also want to control how it looks, the same way as the regular InfoLinks hyperlinks. For instance, I would like to add a border around the Related Tags cloud or change the colors of the links so I can highlight them within my contents. That way, my readers would easily see the related tags. I believe that if given this option, they would be more inclined to check out the related tags.

I have just recently implemented the InfoLinks Related Tags cloud on this blog and I am really expecting higher revenue. I am now in the process of adding InfoLinks Related Tags on my most popular / most read posts here on Pinay Online Money Maker so I will share with you in the coming days how it affected my overall earnings. I have already implemented in-text ads in my other blogs in the past months and I’ve seen big improvements in my earnings so I know using InfoLinks Related Tags will definitely boost my earnings.

How to Make Money Online with InfoLinks

One of the many ways I make money online nowadays is through InfoLinks, especially with this blog, Pinay Online Money Maker, because I don’t monetize from the traffic this blog gets. Well, except for the referrals I get, InfoLinks is the main source of income on this blog.

If you’re not yet familiar with InfoLinks, they offer a pay per click in-text contextual advertising and the highest revenue share to bloggers or website owners. What happens is once you’ve integrated InfoLinks to your blog or website, they’ll insert text links within your content. Below are some screenshots of the InfoLinks hyperlinks you’ve probably seen on this blog:

When a visitor hovers or places their mouse on top of the InfoLinks hyperlinks, a floating informational bubble / window will open. If the viewer clicks, they’ll be directed to the advertiser’s landing page and you earn revenue. If the viewer moves their mouse away from the hyperlink, the bubble will disappear.

If you ask me, how InfoLinks work is not at all obtrusive so I don’t think it’ll affect your readers’ experience, especially when they’re just reading your contents. I also set it up in a way that the look of the InfoLinks hyperlinks are different to my blog’s actual links. I’ll be discussing how to do it later on this post so read on.

At the same time as not being obtrusive, InfoLinks is also a great way for you to monetize your blog or your contents because, like in my experience, the ads that show up on my InfoLinks hyperlinks are very relevant to my contents. So, the possibility of a visitor clicking on the ads is way higher, most especially because the links appear within your posts. Your visitors will have a tendency to get interested by the InfoLinks hyperlinks and click on the related ads.

Another thing that I love about InfoLinks is how easy it is to set it up. Let me show you how to do it.

For the month of July, I managed to earn $17.17 from Adgitize. If you’re not familiar with the site yet, it’s actually an ad network where you can make money as a publisher and/or pay to advertise your blog/s.

Advertising with Adgitize pays for itself, as you can see. I paid $14.00 for one month advertising and I got my money back, along with increased traffic to my blog. Ain’t that great?!
