If Google Adsense or Yahoo! Publisher Network (YPN) is not giving you enough income yet, why not try Text Link Ads? A growing number of bloggers have been reporting better returns with Text Link Ads than Adsense or YPN. Yes, not all websites or blogs have the same prospect of earning from Adsense or YPN. There are many factors to consider, including traffic, topic, optimization, layout, relevance, etc. Fortunately, there are other ways though to earn money from your websites/blog.

The next best thing is by selling links on your blog. This is actually more geared towards sites that have considerably high PageRank. The higher your PageRank, the bigger the chances that you've get link advertiers.

And higher paying ones as well. We have recently become impressed with the potential for making money by selling text link advertisement on our websites. Last month, we generated more than $200 from the brokerage service provided by Text Link Ads. They sell small text ads on our site, split the revenue 50-50 with us, and deposit directly into our PayPal account. It's not a huge amount of money anyway, but if we never tried this, we'd miss out on this easy extra income.

And it's totally passive. Making money with Text Link Ads is very simple. First, you should submit your site for review. Then, if approved, you may insert their ad code on your website, and wait while they sells your advertising space and pay you commission. Of course there are factors such as how much traffic you have, what is your site's PageRank, what industry your site is in, and where you place the ad code will determine how much you make. But, anything is better than nothing, right? Any extra sources of income helps.

So, it's worth a try. Text Link Ads allows website owners, webmasters, or bloggers to sell simple text link advertisement on their own web site. Their ad serving technology currently supports websites that use server-side processing.

This includes any site that uses PHP, ASP, Perl, Cold Fusion, and so on. Most forum and blog software are compatible with their technology. They also have added some new features to their packages that have made life much easier for publisher like us. They put static URL where you can direct visitors to your listing if you choose.

They allow you to edit your title, description, keywords, site wide/single page, the number of pages the ad will appear on, and the number of ads you are willing to sell, as well as to update your Alexa ranking. And the most important thing is that you can display Text Link Ads on the same page with Google Adsense, Yahoo! Publisher Network, and other contextually served ads. Their product is not a pay-per-click (PPC) or contextually served ad system.

What you have to do is just do as you always do. Keep blogging, posting, or writing articles to your site to make it fresh and actual. Then watch the money roll in. That's it.
