Not too long ago I came up with an idea to share my referral revenue from Text Link Ads with anyone that sign up with my affiliate links.

A few took up the offer (thanks! you know who you are). But until now the referral had not appear on my account. I want to post this update so that no one thinks that I’m cheating them.

Support email was sent from their contact page and so far nothing was heard from them for weeks now.

If you know any contacts in TLA that could help clarify, please let me know.

First Performancing AdvertiserSince adding Performancing Partner to my sites less than 2 weeks ago, I got my first advertiser on FreeBizWare.

This was much faster than I had expected but the real joy was that it was on FreeBizWare. I’d alway maintained that FreeBizWare is one of the better blog that I had done. Text Link Ads however does not seem to think so and rejected the site a few times.

One thing about Performancing that I do not understand is how they set their auto pricing. Every once in a while I recieve emails informing me that my site has been priced. What was more mysterious was that I sold this first ads for $1 (!) and almost immediate after I approved it, most of my sites were increased to $25.

Well, I’m pretty excited and I hope my $1 advertiser get some business from the ads.

Performancing introduces new revenue source

Performancing introduces Performancing Publisher Partners, offering bloggers yet another revenue source.

On the first look, the payout also look much more generous than others such as Text Link Ads or LinkWorth.

  • Publisher take 70% of advertising revenue your blog generates.
  • Performancing takes 30%
  • Publisher take 5% of income generated by any publisher or advertiser referred

On the other hand, the Performancing Publisher program is not a text link program but advertising, so it should be comparable with Text Link Ads terms.

The Performancing Publisher is also be comparable with Adsense since it is not contextual. Advertiser select blogs from the Partner network to advertise on them.

The Partner payouts for referrals is an attractive feature because it generates residual income over time. Residual income really helps when trying to create income over time by decoupling the revenue stream from your action.
