    I switched to VibrantMedia while waiting for Infolinks to pay me.
    I've realized a 50% increase of income since this switch.
    I'd be fool to give them another chance.

    They had me, but their lack of communication sent me shopping.

    Still would be nice if Infolinks would honour my request to give my unpaid balance of $35.96 to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

    Too bad Infolinks team is afraid to reply to my question...

    I guess they don't want people to wonder why they link directly to Google adsense custom search while it's forbidden by adsense TOS...

    But because they're not answering I can but think that Infolinks IS a SHODDY business...

    better to use Vibrant like shark007 advises!

    its not advice. It was simply the outcome caused by their own lack of communication.

    Infolinks (Shay) brags about 24hr communication through their email address and i say bullcrap.

    I sent several emails to that address asking why i was not being paid and they went unanswered and I went unpaid for several months. Out of pure frustration, I shopped around for a replacement intext advertiser.

    If Infolinks wasnt so full of it, they'd still be serving ads on my site.
    Once burned, shame on you; allow it to happen twice, shame on me.

    I'm thankful I received the payment I got only AFTER complaining publicly on this forum,
    and am willing to walk away from a $36 balance to avoid being burnt again.

    they are ignoring or avoiding the answer, but i guess they are a premuim publishers of adsense, and they have a special deal with them. they show (infolinks) ads on your page, a visitor click on the ad, directed to custom page result by google (adsense), they get payed by google adsense, and then they give you the little cents.

    if i am visitor to your site i click on the ad if i am interested in the ads content, but why i should click on ad that get me to google search page ?? i can search google by my self !!

    i don't think adsense banned infolinks, now they are showing a variety pf ads. but the only thing is they will generate vry less revenue as its inline ads...

    I'm not sure what type of math you use to make that statement.

    Since Infolinks left me out in the cold for so long, (no payment, and no communication until I complained on this forum)
    I dumped them and began using VibrantMedia. My inline ad income is 60% of my adsense income.

    I'll help you with that math, for every $100 i earn from adsense, I earn aprox. $60 from VibrantMedia.
