Adf.ly - Monetize your links

[mierzwin]

Referral and examples removed - please read the site rules. We do not permit referral links.

No worries. Mod deleted.

[BirdOPrey5]

So the purpose of this mod is to show an advertisement to everyone who clicks on any link on your forum?

[RSNF]

I am confused about this mod is this like an affiliate mod where we sign up through your site and generate you money and we get a small %?

[webmaster9]

I will explain this mod further. If i am wrong, please excuse me.

First of all, AdFly is a well known website. What does it do? well create an account, link your paypal with it and you are done. If you want you go back on adfly, sign in, put a url you want someone to visit and shrink it.The shrinked url someone will visit will make them pass a add. after five second they can skip the add. And for each visits AdFly will pay you an amount monthly.

This modification will force every urls to pass trough an auto generated ad-fly link linked to your account. Wich will in fact give you money. But you can modify the mod so example after 50 posts your users will be able to post links freely without their urls changed to AdFly.

thank you bro

I didn't find "Tools -> Full Page Script" on adf.ly Where is it?

edit: my bad I choose wrong account detail.

[apaydin2148]

Working like a charm. Thank you!

[mierzwin]

thanks webmaster9 for explaining. adf.ly is good for forums where members post plenty of links to external sites. this way you can make some money towards running your forum

as you can predict advert on every link can be annoying so that's where the mod helps to control when the links appear, by setting post count or user group settings

I will probably modify it further so you can set the mod per forum etc.

Thanks for anyone using it!

hw about 4.1.7 ?

[barakuda]

hi..installed,but why evreytime i click any link in my forum is still directly to the url without passing any adf.ly?what wrong?

[joeychgo]

so this works the same as www.viglink.com (http://www.viglink.com) does? (except I get paid WAY more with viglink)

[mierzwin]

go to: http://adf.ly/?id=844139
register
then go: http://adf.ly/tools.php?fullpage


generate your full page script and copy it to the mod settings in your VB options under Options -> Adf.ly Mod

Code you need to copy looks something like that:

<script>
var adfly_id = 844139;
var adfly_advert = 'int';
var exclude_domains = ['example.com', 'yoursite.com',];
</script>
<script src="http://adf.ly/js/link-converter.js"></script>

Just change example.com to your domain so your internat forum links are not redirected to adf.ly aswell. you can delete "'yoursite.com'," or leave it as it is, will work fine.




so this works the same as www.viglink.com (http://www.viglink.com) does? (except I get paid WAY more with viglink)

you can use both adf.ly and viglink. look at your stats in viglink account and write down domains where users click and you get no affiliation money. then generate full page script but include only domains which dont give you monet via vig link.

code should look something like that:

<script>
var adfly_id = 844139;
var adfly_advert = 'int';
var domains = ['depositfiles.com', 'rapidshare.com', 'vip-file.com', 'smsfiles.ru', '4files.net', 'turbobit.ru', 'uploading.com', 'letitbit.net', 'depositfiles.ru', 'sms4file.com', 'ifolder.ru', 'hotfile.com', 'anyfiles.net', 'sharingmatrix.com', 'megashare.com', 'megaupload.com', 'rapidshare.de', 'rapidshare.ru', 'uploadbox.com', 'filefactory.com', 'filefactory.ru', 'filepost.ru', 'onefile.net', 'freefolder.net', 'getthebit.com', 'turbobit.net',];
</script>
<script src="http://adf.ly/js/link-converter.js"></script>

Just inlude all youtube links or rapidshare etc. This way you will be getting whatever you getting from viglink + some extra from adf.ly. Works like a charm on my site.

This is nothing like viglink or skimlinks.

With those when someone links to Amazon for example you get a percentage of the sale if someone buys something from Amazon.

With THIS instead of going to Amazon when someone clicks on a link they instead go to a page that shows them an advertisement and then they have to wait before they can actually go to amazon. You don't get paid for what they buy on Amazon, you merely get paid for showing them an advertisement.

This is true. But I noticed on my forum sometimes adf.ly redirects to viglink api sometimes not.

That's why I DO NOT suggest using adf.ly for for well performing programs on viglink, amazon ebay etc. Just put their domains on exclude list in adf.ly script and you will avoid displaying adf.ly adds to links you are making money via viglink.

[apaydin2148]

I have a question. Can I use adf.ly when people try to enter my site. But not other pages, only the cms page.

[nacaruncr]

3. Register an account here: http://adf.ly/?id=844139 **

Why not just let the register link above normal?
With this, you have referrals and win based on what they earn well, for me that does not seem right, if it is to register, then just simply let the normal link, no?
Well it is an opinion and based on the hack, really good idea to add the adf.ly to vb.

I will make this possible in next version. Currently you would have to manually edit and stick adf.ly code in cms template

I have put in the last line ezplainig and asking to click this link. It will give me some pennies but wont affect your earnings. You can always go directly to ad.fly site if you fell you dont need to support the mod.

I don't know how to do it manually, I'm waiting for next version. When will the next version be released?
