How To Make Money Online #5: Make Money With Adf.ly

What is adf.ly?

Adf.ly is a URL shortening service, such as bit.ly and goo.gl but with one little twist, you can make money from every link you create! Nowadays, many people are using this great tool and made money through this. Later On I will show you some ways you can use to make money in adf.ly. Earning money in adf.ly can be low and can be very very high, they pay you $1 for every 1000 visits on your link(depends also on country), if this is you're first encounter that sure does seem very low, but your potential here is high, let's say after you've spent 3 months on adf.ly, you got 10 links and each link are visited 1000 times per day, that a total of 10000 times visit per day and $40 per day, that's $1200 per month, it is good for a side job eh? Though it also takes time.

How does adf.ly work?

Adf.ly is simply a link shortening service that serves ads in every link that you create. For every ad in your links that someone sees you will make money. The ad shows for 5 seconds before you can click “skip ad” and continue to the links destination. The amount of money you make is about $0.5 to $4.7 per thousand view. Here's an example, I'll shorten my blog address to http://adf.ly/8I0yq , when you click it you'll be redirected to an advertisement first then after 5 seconds click skip ad on the upper right and you'll be redirected again to the Blog.

• Displaying interstitial ads

  Displaying interstitial ads in your links is the highest paying alternative. If you shrink a link with an interstitial advertisement in it people will see full screen advertising before they can continue to the links destination. The advertisement lasts for 5 seconds before the alternative of skipping it becomes available for the viewer. Example of this is http://adf.ly/8I0yq

• Using a framed banner

  Using a framed banner is a less “painful” alternative for everyone that clicks on your link. This is because the ad will not take up the whole screen; instead it will only show a banner at the top of the browser. However, you will not make as much money with this alternative as you would have done by using interstitial ads. Example of this is http://adf.ly/8I1mR 

• Full page scripts

  Even though I’d advice not to use full page scripts it is still a service offered by adf.ly. Full page scripts is a code snippet that you place in your websites code to change all of your links to adf.ly links. Doing so will make your users have to watch an ad every time they click on a link at your website. Sure, if you have thousand of visitors per day you can make some money with this, but you will most likely piss of everyone trying to browse your website.

• Get referrals to do the hard work

  If you do not want to do the hard work yourself then get someone to do the work for you. Adf.ly has a referral program that grants you 20% of your referrals earnings for life. So if you’re a famous person or has a great way to get referrals online this is for you. If you get about 100 referrals that are all making about $1 a day this will automatically get $20 a day and $600 a month. It may not seem like a lot but money quickly adds up and if you have any good idea on how to get people to click on your own links you could be earning well over $1000 per month simply by creating links. If you run a website or blog you could simply put up one of their banners on your site and if anyone clicks on them and signs up you will get a referral.

Let's Make money now..

• Post on forums

  If you know how a forum works then you will also know that there are plenty of forums out there that gets millions of views every month with hundreds of thousands members. Let’s say you know where to find great ways to make money online, you then signup with th e forum. You then create an adf.ly link to these Websites..  Then you cleverly create a thread on the forum saying something like “Make Money Online For Free And Easy” with a little bit information and maybe some pictures and proofs inside. Then you place your Adf.ly link in the thread. If you do this actively you can get thousands of clicks on your links each day. This can be done in various forums, as long as you have something that the rest of the users want, for example eBooks, software, videos and so on.

• Create videos on YouTube

  YouTube is a great way to make money online and it even works with Adf.ly in some cases. If you know how to make videos you could create a video about a new software or song and then simply say that the link to download it is in the description. Since the video will most likely constantly get traffic you can duplicate this process and create many videos. In the end you might get thousands of clicks on your links every day on autopilot. And the more videos you upload, the more money you will make.

• Everyday linking to things

  If you’re active at websites such as twitter, facebook or similar websites you can easily make some money online from them. In the end, the more links you create the more you will earn, just post them on highly trafficked websites. The links will most likely stay forever and you will earn residual money from them forever. Though, you should not overdo this, putting links in instant messenger chats gives little to no money and only wastes time for you and the one clicking the link.

 Those are some of it, there are still lots of ways, Adf.ly may be for you and may also not be for you, It must suit your lifestyle. I too, have used this great website and have earned $10 for a week from it. That's okay for a part time. Everything has its ups and downs, What do you think? Do you have any questions? Or suggestions maybe? Comment it!
