This looks good if you can nofollow the links. How hard is it to install the ioncube stuff you mentioned ?

I just signed up from your link and did a test drive. The only thing i didn’t like is that the affiliate program is seperate from the regular program so I need two logins.

While LinkXL links are somewhat like the javascript inline models like Kontera, the big difference is we allow advertisers to buy specific keywords/keyword phrases on existing publisher pages and our links are real HTML links. They are standard SEO friendly links, not the double underlined popup type links

Our links and can be follow or nofollow based on buyer and seller preference.

Thanks for visiting John. I didn’t really go into the advertisers side of LinkXL as this blog is mainly geared towards publishers.

I guess the only two questions I’d really have are

1.) Why the choice to use IonCube ? I know a lot of publishers might be hesitant to install encoded PHP software that alters the output of their pages on their site.

2.) Why the high $100 payout threshold? I know that will discourage many publishers from being active because most bloggers are lucky if they can make $100 per year from TNX or TLA.

Otherwise, the program is exceptional from what I’ve seen.

My problem with doing things like this is that I write for PPP on one of my blogs and they do not like this. So, it is PPP or Text links.

We are not another Backlinks or TLA or LinkAdage as we allow publishers and advertiser to buy natural links in pre-existing content based on the keywords/keyword phrases they choose. BTW:I also a offer a footer and sidebar service at brokerage.linkadage.com if that is what works best for you. :-)

Currently at LinkXL, we have over 2 million pages in our inventory where you can buy links, so just about all but the most obscure keyword phrases give you plenty of opportunity to buy natural in content links. While we don’t pretend to be the be all end all of text links, we offer an new angle on getting text links that look natural and will give you value.

Why $100 at payout? I don’t know, that is a number we picked that would allow publishers to have plenty of cash to buy links with their earnings.

If you are a publisher and need a lower payout threshold, flip me an email and we will work something out. As it is, many publishers have increased their payout level because they take their earnings and buy links sold as an advertiser with the money they earn. So they use one site to sell tons of links then use that money to buy links for their other web properties.
