What Is Text Link Ads?

Text Link Ads is a simple web-based service that allows you to buy (and sell) static HTML text links on high quality, high traffic web properties, that can drive targeted traffic and help your link popularity which is a top factor in organic search engine rankings. Our clients have seen a dramatic increase in targeted traffic, brand exposure, and organic search engine rankings. We currently work with a wide range of clients from Fortune 500 firms to individual website owners.

How Long To Go Live?

Most links are placed within 48 hours of the order being received. New ads require the publisher to review and accept the ad. The 30 day billing period will not begin until your ad is actually live.

How Are Links Priced?

Text Link Ads are priced at a flat rate per month per link, from as little as $10 per month. Never worry about cost per click or CPM rates. You prepay for a 30 day run of your ad. Your ad will never be turned off if it gets too many impressions or clicks. Our pricing algorithm factors in a website's traffic, theme, ad position, and link popularity when setting the flat ad rate per month. You may cancel an ad at any time.

Reputable online link advertising system

“Patrick and the rest of the folks at Text Link Ads have built a reputable online link advertising system which site publishers and advertisers can trust.

And besides rankings, one of the most beneficial features of Text Link Ads is that the high traffic authority sites which are part of their network can generate targeted long tail user to the advertiser, which doubles the pleasure and the fun of a link advertising campaign.”
