I developed a new approach to linking and started www.LinksMillionaire.com. Basically what it does is allows you to create a link back to your site and give your the URL to use that link in forums, blogs, answers, etc.. of course anyone can do that now by simply adding their link in their post or signature.. but what makes this unique is that there is a landing/iterim/advertising page that the user sees BEFORE they get to your website.. and you can make money on this landing page through selling advertising and google adsense.. plus there are free text links on this page that anyone can signup for and they have to give you a backlink when they do - so this increases your backlinks.. if you're already going to add a link somewhere, it just makes sense to try this out..
pretty much... ads show on the interim page before your link shows up.. where their program shows ads as you leave through a link (for the most part)..
sure... instead of using you standard link on forums, blogs, answers, etc.. - such as one of my websites - http://www.skinzee.com - you would use the link from linksmillionaire that you set up.. when a user would then click on that link, they would go to your website but FIRST, they would stop at an ad page.. that ad page would have the usual 'click here to continue to website' plus it would have banner ads, text ads, text links, and adsense/YPN ads.. and you make money by them clicking on ads and buying ads.. and it's all automated - you never have to do a thing - not even put up their ad - it's automatic.. i understand for some people it's considered a nuisance to get this page.. but for the webmaster, it give you a chance to make some money AND the page ranking is still passed onto your website from the site that they clicked from, which is probably the reason you put your link out there anyway....
Are you paid by impressions ? Aren't you worried about turning off your readers ? I can see this working out for adsense publishers maybe.
no, you are paid by advertisers buying space and by google clicks.. plus there is a reciprocal linking script built in for anyone that wants to add a free link on the interim page.. and yes, some people will be turned off by this - so it works for some and not for others..
I'll check out your site. This does sound different - so I'm very interested. I like the "thinking outside the box" thing.
