TNX Makes Selling Links Even Easier

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

TNX is an advertising program that allows webmasters and advertisers to easily sell links on their websites or blogs and has seen more than a 3,000% growth in the past year since launch.

Paid links have remained one of the main sources for generating income along with banner advertising, although purchasing paid links or placing them on your website can have several key benefits. First of all, the ranking of your site and pages in search engine results pages. In this case, the term “content is king” doesn’t necessarily hold true unless you have a well-established and well-liked to site.

Before finally signing up for the program, I was slightly hesitant to use the service due to the fact that Google penalizes sites for selling links. However, there is no way for search engines to identify links sold or purchased through the TNX system. To test this, I used this tool and no paid links were detected on my site or others I suspected were using the service, which is great.

If you would like an alternative view of the service, the following bloggers have written great reviews of the service: Super Blogging Tips, Jim Karter, Courtney Tuttle, Connected Internet, Blog Herald, and Internet Vibes.

Traditional forms of link selling, in the form of link exchange directories, directory listings, advertising articles, and footer/sidebar links offer alternative sources of selling links, but each has its own disadvantages and the task of adding your site to each can be time consuming.

Instead, TNX.net makes the process extremely easy by allowing advertisers to buy millions of links from other sites in a few clicks. You are able to promote both your home page URI and subpages that you want to increase rankings of.

TNX is a strong company that strives to “assist website owners in attracting targeted visitors and clients from search engines and relevant websites, reduce the dependence on search engines, improve the quality of search results, and to increase the income of every webmaster who joins the system”. The name is pronounced “thanks”.

Explosive Growth

Over the past several months, TNX has grown at such an astonishing rate that it now rivals other link brokerage services. (Thumbnails of Alexa and Compete stats shown below)

TNX for Advertisers

Advertisers looking to grow traffic or links to their site can greatly benefit from advertising with the TNX network. TNX gives advertisers several tools including a free tool to make link anchors look more natural. The link generator can be used to generate hundreds of different anchors with a click of a button. From the responses that were given by other users and from my short experience with it, this appears to be a very useful and intuitive tool.

SEO Specialists and Consultants can take advantage of this deal:

20% bonus when you purchase $50 worth of TNX-points
50% bonus when you purchase $100 worth of TNX-points
100% bonus when you purchase $250 worth of TNX-points

Advertisers need to be able to target their ads to receive higher ROI and TNX offers several methods for targeting by a website’s niche (or category) – good for bloggers, targeting by the site’s region, by Google PR of each link, and Link Popularity (Yahoo! Backlinks) of each website. As an advertiser, you have full control over almost every element from organizing the first campaign down to what pages your links are placed on.

TNX - Campaign Page

Creating a New Campaign

Setting Up An Account As An Advertiser

First, sign up with the program or login to the site.
Create an advertising campaign by using the “Create New Campaign” in the sidebar area. Follow the three steps, which include choosing the target sites and buy additional points if you need them.
Your campaign will be approved and you will begin to see results.
At this point, you can either edit your campaigns or create new ones based on your experience.

In the future, TNX will be giving out bonuses for accredited partners and advertising agencies that have partnered with the company. In addition to the bonuses, they will also get instant campaign activation without undergoing the moderation process, point credit, have the ability to edit text in already active links, and many more advantages.

Increasing Page Rank with Links

Advertising Costs:

What can you do with 20,000 TNX-Points?
In case website characteristics are not important (Yahoo Backlinks [YB] below 500, category “Fun and Games”), then you can buy a month (in case spots are available) of static links to your site:

- 20 000 different PR0 pages from different websites
- 400 different PR1 pages from different websites
- 200 different PR2 pages from different websites
- 100 different PR3 pages from different websites
- 40 different PR4 pages from different websites
- 20 different PR5 pages from different websites
When a link is active, you can see it in your campaign stats and its cost will be automatically deducted from your balance (TNX-Points). Link will remain active for 30 days. At any time you can delete the active link and get full refund of your TNX-Points that were not used within the 30-day period. Links will be active until you delete them.

TNX for Publishers and Webmasters

The TNX program for publishers is a great way for any website owner to earn extra income each month and has little affect over visitor experience. With TNX, anyone can promote as many websites and keywords as you’d like. Prices are the lowest on the market – as low as $11 a month for up to 10,000 static links to your website.

All new members have the opportunity to earn between 2,000 and 5,000 “TNX-Points” for signing up and trying out the system. These can be used to purchase as many as 5,000 links on 5,000 websites. Once your site is approved or you have contacted the administrators at the forum thread, you should receive your points relatively quickly. Other ways you may use TNX points include paying for advertising your website, holding your points to gain more from them, or selling them to other members/back to TNX.

Joining the program does not limit you to using TNX ads with other advertising programs such as Google AdSense or other Ad Brokering services. The reason for this is that TNX is not context oriented and cannot be distinguished from any other link you may have placed. Google’s “too many links at once” filter cannot detect the selling of links because link placement speed and new link placement is controlled and link farms are not generated – only one to four links are permitted at any time on a single page.

TNX charges a small 12.5% fee for both advertisers and webmasters to cover their expenses

Before joining, you must know and agree to some of the requirements:

There is no minimum amount of visitors to join.
You only need to have a Page Rank of at least one on several of your pages.
It is recommended that you have at least a second-level domain with paid hosting registered 6+ months ago.
Your website should be selected or indexed by search engines at least once per month.
You must have at least 30 pages with regular ranking.
It is recommended that you have a presence in major site directories and catalogues such as DMOZ.
Don’t place the code on sites that do not feature your own content, sponsor erotic content, etc.

Setting Up An Account As A Publisher

Sign up for the program.
Install the code on your website. (ASP, PERL, or PHP required)
Add your site to the system, which will generally be approved within 1-2 days.
Refine the number of paid links on your pages according to your personal preferences or the amount of money you wish to make (up to 4/page).
Begin an advertising campaign with your points or sell them for profit.

A separate, but equally good, earning opportunity is available if you wish to sell your text links. Currently, you may sell them to other members at a rate of between $0.80-$1.60 per one thousand TNX points. While there is no commission for point transfers, the maximum daily points allowed for transfer is 500,000/day, as a security feature. Recently, a new feature was added so that you can sell your points back to TNX at a rate of $0.78 per 1,000 points, with higher rates for certain members and due to the growth of the network.

Income Calculator

Before joining, anyone can see an approximate amount of how much they may earn. As you become more experienced with selling links, or if you’ve already implemented tactics for raising your link popularity and building quality pages, it’ll be easier to generate a larger income. Other members have stated that they/ve made more with this program than all their previous advertising services combined!

On the sidebar, simply type in your website’s URL, estimate the number of pages and link popularity, then enter the number of pages with each PR. After this, choose your website category and you should receive a good estimation of your potential income.

Referral Program

Similar to the rest of the TNX program, the owners wanted to create the best experience for members by setting up an easy-to-use affiliate program. Without any confusing rules, limitations, or shortcomings, the TNX partner program will allow you to earn the maximum from each new advertiser or webmaster introduced to the program. (Thumbnail shows how easy it is to set up your referral banners and links)

There are several articles on Digital Point Forums addressing topics such as gaining a higher ranking:

The rules are as follows: no bans, no possible overcharges, and no restrictions.

When you refer a webmaster to the TNX program and an advertiser pays 100 TNX points for a link on your referral’s website, your referral (the webmaster) gets 75 points and you get 10 points which is 13.3% of his/her income. You will also receive 5% of an advertiser’s spendings.

Overview

After looking through all the details about the site, it appears to be a great opportunity for any webmaster to build links to their website – raising both search engine traffic and referral traffic, as well as Page Rank/link popularity. It alleviates any concerns that may arise from people hesitant to buy links or place them on their website as the creators were very intelligent in setting up the system. All in all, I like the fact that there are very little restrictions, especially for smaller sites, and the process is made simple for selling links using TNX-Points.
