Money Blogging - Selling links on your blog.

After all the obvious monetization procedures there comes the question, should I or should I not sell text links? Frankly this question has an easy answer, YES. Now don’t get me wrong, it’s still a no-no by google but you need to either be smart yourself or get a link broker that is smart enough to lay low and still sell links on your site 24 hours a day 7 days a week and, like LinkXL (review coming up tomorrow), they offer great support for their publishers (like moi) and they even offer to help you get setup if you are having problems with getting your blog hooked up to LinkXL, Most of all their service is much more discreet and low low, which is what I like the most. The links are sold automatically (as usual) and you are paid at the end of the month for the link.

It’s okay to sell links (like i said earlier) if you have a competent broker unlike TLA which got me in a penalty ditch for 2 of my sites other then that there are tons of webmasters that blame tla for ruining their income/sites..etc. They were a little too open about buying/selling links and some of this information was leaked through several sources and I’m almost sure that they even introduced the “sponsor links” add on where they made it a must for that to be the header before the links were added, that only pissed of google enough to fully penalize the sites using TLA.

Well, everyone that i know of that was making some pretty big chunks of cash through TLA has been keeping away from it now because they don’t want their new sites and the current ones (penalised) to be known as affiliated to TLA (mainly because of the penalties that google might throw at them) but one site still stands by their side, yep techcrunch.

I would suggest that either you do tons of research ( and read reviews ) on brokers before joining one or take link selling into your own hands and hit the forums and the marketplaces ;). It’s just one more way to monetize your blog.
