2 days into Infolinks - no good!

    Been approached to give infolinks a try by one of their representatives ... went on and read a few reviews on Infolinks, on how good it was, that it complement Adsense, and a definitely much better money puller than the all infamous Kontera.

    After 2 days, over 15000 views, 600+ clicks ... total earnings lesser than 1 cent per click, total lesser than $6, I've decided to remove the code!

    I think some people have good experiences with Infolinks, mainly because of where their traffic is from - probably USA.

    As my site traffic is mainly from ASIA, thus I am getting mainly Infolinks / Dictionary ads from Infolinks .... which to me, that isnt going to pay much!

    The infolinks support assured me that I am getting paid for every click, but i guess infolinks is paying me 0.007 cents per click to bring my traffic to their all amazing Google Custom search page ... where I am sure they will generate more than the puny 0.007 cents i am getting!

    So thats it ! Till next time.

    Oh yah, just incase you are wondering.. I was using Knotera for sometime before Infolinks.. and my 1st month experience with Kontera is definitely a much better one than infolinks! (At least i got 3 payment from Kontera in 3 months!) - with lesser traffic than currently!

    Sorry to hear that InfoLinks did not work for you, that might be because of the traffic that is not coming from United States as you mentioned and the content of the site.

    I'm not sure, but I believe travel content is not performing very well. Health content is probably performing the best with InfoLinks since the ppc is high on them.

    Looks like InfoLinks is in crisis too like the rest of the ad networks. When they first started they were paying very good, but now it seems like they pay crap.

    Lol, Nystul should maybe consider using other inline text advertising ad network such as AdBrite or Vibrant Media.
