Text Link Info

Despite Google’s recent penalization of text link publishers, the market for text link advertisements, thrive. One sample of that is the recently launched text link ads network, TNX.net. Pronounced as tnx as in “thanks” in text lingo, the network has created quite the buzz for itself since its inception. Not everything on the bright side, however. There are also some bad reports about their service. When choosing which text link ad network to use, it’s important to see both sides of the coin, is it not?

When you go the TNX web site, you’ll see an income calculator at the left side of the screen. Using this tool, you’ll be able to get an estimate of you web site’s potential earnings. When you sign up for TNX.net, you automatically get 2,000 TNX points. These points could be used for various ends. One would be to use these points to buy text links in other web sites. Another would be to sell your TNX points back to TNX. I believe the going rate is $1.20 for 1,000 points. Or, you can leave your TNX points as they are and wait until the going rate increases. They have also opened a special offer in Digital Point. Sign up and post your ID in the forum and they’ll give you a free additional 5,000 points.

TNX charges a commission rate of 12.5% monthly, which I believe isn’t too bad. They also have a dashboard where you can control your operations — choose sites to advertise on or control the web sites advertising on your site. You’ll then be given a code to be pasted in every page you wanted the ads to appear and wait for your web site to get approved. All in all, I do think TNX is a great avenue to sell text links and is definitely worth the shot.
