Experience Infolinks - Single Dotted Line vs Double line

In my last post, I tried to put a real comparison between poor Kontera and great Infolinks ads service. In this post i will try to put here my experience with the different types of ads Infolinks provides. Infolinks provides In Text ads in two variants: Single dotted line and double line.

According to Infolinks, the double line ads will perform better than single line ads in most cases because with double line ads, they will be able to provide more relevant and premium ads. They also run a campaign "Double with a Bubble". You can check following video from Infolinks-



Talking about my experience, it was opposite of what Infolinks suggests. From the begining, i was using single dotted line in all my websites and CTR was good and i was getting fair amount of money as well. As per Infolinks suggestion, i changed single dotted line to double line and my CTR dropped from the same day. I continued it more than a week but there was no improvement. The amount I was getting in later case was less than what i was getting earlier. Then i decided to move to single dotted line again and from very next day, I saw a jump in CTR and the amout at the end of the day. The same trend is continue till now.

I am not sure what is the reason but single dotted line is working really great for me. For me, I guess, Single dotted line looks more a part of my website and does not divert the mind of my reader.

About Infolinks:

Infolinks is the highest paying In Text ads network. I would recommend every publishers to try Infolinks on their websites and I am damm sure you would not regret your decision.

The integration with your site is very fast and easy too. The Infolinks support is superb with quick response to any of your query. You can sign In to Infolinks to display ads on your site..

If you also had some experience with double vs single line ads of Infolinks, then share your experience here with everyone. That might be helpful for others deciding the ads type to display in their blogs of websites.

Happy earning with Infolinks!!

Make More Money with Infolinks Bye-bye Kontera

If you are a publishers then you would always be looking for an ads network that pays well for the efforts you put in your website. I am using Google Adsense on all my websites because its simply the best Ads network exist for small to large publishers. Along with Adsense, i thought of trying in-text ads from Kontera in order to make few extra bucks. Now I am saying bye-bye to Kontera because it was the worst perfomer for my sites. First I want to show you my Kontera earnings of last 6 months, then i will talk about Infolinks, the ads network of my choice.

This was my earnings for the period (7/7/2009 to 12/10/2009). Now you can imagine how poor the performance of Kontera is. To get the minimum payout which is $100, i  guess it will take another 7 months. $100 in a year with Kontera when the average impression is 3K-4K/day.

Leaving behind the Kontera, Lets talk about Infolinks. What Infolinks says about self is-

Infolinks presents the next generation of In-Text Advertising, leading the industry with the most relevant in-text advertising links and the highest revenue share - guaranteed.

When I got to know about Infolinks, I thought of giving it a try on my website. I removed the Kontera on one of my site and put Infolinks there and you would not believe that Infolinks from the very first day, paying me much-2 more than what Kontera. The points i noticed after applying Infolinks on my site were-

1. Speed of Site: Kontera was making my site slow while with Infolinks  my pages were loading much faster.
2. Nunber of Ads Impressions: Since both Kontera and Infolinks are in-text ads, so i would expect both of them to have more or less same number of ad impressions but the ad impressions with Kontera was way too less than Infolinks.
3. Earnings: After applying Infolinks, I realized that i was earning pennies with Kontera. Infolinks is converting 5-6 times better than Kontera. The following image will show my Infolinks earning of about less than 15 days.

This was my earnings for the period (07/12/2009 to 18/12/2009). As you can see i have earned $21.37 in just 12 days and according to this average, I would accumlate around $320 in six months, 7x of my Kontera earnings.

I guess it is enough for you to decide between Kontera and Infolinks. So Bye-bye Kontera and welcome Infolinks.

5 Easy Tips to Become a Successful Blogger

I have seen in past that many people just start blogging on anything without a planning and ends with nothing. There is no success without proper planning until you are lucky enough. Here are few points I observed while writing for many years. These points should help new bloggers to do well in the field of blogging.

• What's your interest?
  
  This is the very first question you should ask to yourself while going to start writing. The best output will come with the subject you are most interested with. You will be able to do justice with the blog if you write about your interest. Blogging is not an easy job, you need to dig into it to get the best out of it. If something is of your interest, you will dig into it deeper and deeper and that will help you to become good in writing about it.


• What can you give to your readers?
  
  That's another very important question you should ask to yourself while entering into blogging. Readers visiting to your blog will be looking for something to take it with them. It could be a nice article, a nice tip, something new or interesting to download. You should always think of giving something to your readers. Each time you are going to write something, just think for a second that what I can give to my readers. This will help building a regular interest between your blog and blog readers.


• Can your writing create interest among readers?
  
  That's another point of concern while writing. You should focus on developing interest among your readers towards your blog. This helps in building long lasting relation between blog and its readers. If you are not able to bring interest to your readers, they will not come back to your blog. Revisit to your blog by any reader will depend on how well your writing is. With good writing you can indirectly force them to revisit your blog and they will happily revisit your blog if they found it interesting.


• Are you learning everyday?
  
  So you are all set for writing, you did some research about your interest, you know that you can give interesting writing to your readers. Now it’s time for learning. Yes, in every field you will find many successful people who has made his fortune with their sincere efforts, they have given something to the community and people know them for what they do. Your job is to learn the success mantras from such people every single day. More you learn, more you can offer to your readers. Learning is very important for reaching to top in your field.


• Are you focusing on your objectives?
  
  I am sure many of us have some objectives associated with the blogging. Some of us just write because writing is their interest and they just want to share good/bad things to rest of the world. There are people who has clear objective in their mind with respect to their blog. You have to focus more and more on your objectives with every other post you make on your blog. Clear focus will help you to achieve your objectives at the earliest.

You too can become a successful blogger. Just put sincere efforts towards your blog, don't try to make fool to your visitors. Provide the things what they are actually looking for. Build a never lasting relation with your readers.
