Make Money Online – Post Level Text Link Ads

written by John Chow on April 3rd, 2007

Text Link Ads will soon be rolling out a new revenue source for bloggers call Post Level Text Link Ads. What is Post Level TLA? According to Patrick Gavin, Text Link Ads‘ President:

What this means is that in addition to your run of site TLA’s you will be able to serve up a single TLA at the post level below each qualifying post in your blog. As you know with the growth of social networking news sites, individual blog posts can be very valuable in terms of traffic and direct links to these specific posts. These popular posts can now be monetized with our new plugin.

Only one ad will be served at the bottom of the post and it will allow the advertiser to have a full 80 character title and 150 letter description. You will still have full editorial control over the advertisers.

Post Level TLA For Traffic & SEO

The TLA Plugin allows Text Link Ads to determine popular posts on your blog and add them to their marketplace. Post Level TLA offers advertisers targeted blog posts to buy links in. Moreover, because they can select the anchor text as well, the links offer tremendous SEO potential. For example, many of my financial and credit card posts rank on page one of Google for investment related keywords. Buying a Post Level TLA on any of those posts would mean targeted traffic and better search ranking of the advertiser’s site for the keywords they are targeting.

Like normal text link ads, pricing for Post Level TLA will be offered on a flat rate monthly basis. The price will be based on post traffic, page rank, number of links to the post, topic category and other factors that TLA won’t reveal.

When Will It Be Available?

Post Level TLA is currently in private beta testing. Full roll out is expected later this week. Post Level TLA is only available for Wordpress blog. When the system is ready for full roll out, publisher will have to upload a new Plugin and replace their current TLA Plugin. All current TLA publishers running Wordpress blogs will be able to take advantage of Post Level TLA.

If you have not signed up for Text Link Ads, I highly recommend it. TLA is one of this blog’s biggest moneymakers. With the addition of Post Level TLA, I see it helping me make more money online.

  1. Wow, that sounds like a great new source of revenue. I foresee your revenue going up big time in the near future, John :)

  2. Looks good! Any chance of you doing a Kontera-style partnership to let the little guys and girls grab a slice of the TLA pie?

  3. It’s to bad that Post Level is only available for wordpress :cry:

  4. Although I do run TLA on my sites I do find these new in post ads rather ho-hum in regards to bringing anything new to the TLA.

    I think it really cheapens the article in my opinion. Unless of course the ads are contextual. But isn’t that what Google is for?

    Maybe I’m missing something?

  5. Yet another great way to add to the monetization of blogs. I need to get the traffic first though. Because without the traffic, the best ad company in the world will not help.

  6. I like this idea. I wonder why it took them so long to come up with it.

  7. Interesting, I have no had an success with TLA as of yet, but I am working on a few projects, which will hopefully see some revenue :)

    Thanks for the info John!

  8. Sounds pretty cool. Something I will look for in the future. I have TLA on one of my sites finally and it has been doing very well. Looking forward to the PLTLA’s.

  9. Yeah, it’s difficult, you need to build up traffic before you can take advantage of something like this. Once you get the traffic though, you are doing good :)

  10. Thanks I’ll take some info

  11. I hope my blog will be approve, TLA didn’t approve it bec. it doesn’t have any PR :evil: but it has high alexa and uniques per day.. :evil:

  12. I think this is a great idea. It gives advertisers a chance to buy a spot on one related post, without paying to be on all the posts.

    Publishers could lose out (and so could TLA) if advertisers embrace this model & abandon the sitewide link buys that they do now with TLA.

    • I think it’s a fantastic development too. I don’t think they’ll lose too much sitewide business though. There’s still a lot of benefit to the sitewide links and there’s a lot of overhead involved in the single post stuff.

  13. Sounds like a great idea to me, on one of my blogs TLA is my biggest earner, im always sold out of ads (max 10). PR of 6.
    An additional source from them sounds great.

  14. Sounds good, but I’m guessing you have to have your site accepted by the publisher program same as usual? … I need that PR update :mrgreen:

  15. I need a PR period ! my alexa is getting better my PR sucks.

  16. Xof

    Too much ads will kill the ads :evil:

    • It’s just a question of integration. Integrate the ads well, and you’re on. See the example of this blog, see the example of the big network of blogs b5media (they are full of ads). All this examples are successful blogs that are growing day by day.

  17. Not really, look how ad packed John Chow is and he just keeps making more money.

  18. They just sent me an email on this, i’m going to have to test it out, see how well it works.
