Hello,

There Is A Site Where I Use To Comment, Since Many Months Ago.

Today, After 1 Of My Posts, I Discovered That Some Words Of My Text Had Been Converted Into A Link - Never Noticed It Before.

When I Hovered My Mouse Over It, The **Link Added By Viglink** Text Popped Up.

Any Experience With This Company, Out There ?

Thank You.

VigLink: http://www.viglink.com/ is legitimate company which main purpose is advertising.

As you know/see, SCforum also have few advertising spots and We use that money to cover server costs and to invest in forum improvements, etc.

I suppose that site which you mentioned recently start partnership with Viglink...
We also discussed that option in the past but I gave up because I think that it'll be to annoying for SCF visitors.

When We Want Peace And Quiet, Advertisers Do Not Leave Us Alone.

When We Want To Test Their Annoyance, They Keep Quiet - Go Figure.

Between infolinks And viglink, As I Remember:

A - As A Site Reader, I Prefer viglink - It Is A Lot Less Intrusive,

B - As A Site Owner, I Would Prefer viglink, Too.

---

Why ( B ) ?

As I Remember, When You Click Them, infolinks Only Calls facebook Pages - viglink Calls All Kinds Of Vendors Pages.

Since viglink Has A Larger Target Base, I Wonder If They Do Not Provide More Revenue.

Easy To Test:

SCF Uses infolinks.

The Site I Talked About, MAKEUSEOF ( MUO ) Uses viglink.

If You Can Spare Some Testing Time, Maybe You Can Increase Your Revenue ( ? ).

Cheers.

I must admit that I did not expect this comment... Generally, I think that "Viglink" ads are more intrusive than "Infolinks"...

... However, income from Infolinks is very weak in the past Months so I'll probably remove it after next payment cycle.

Who knows, on that time maybe We'll implement Viglink code.

Thanks for feedback.

cya around,

Thank you for your efforts.

This morning I read VigLink's Q&A... most of theirs advertisers pays for CPA (Cost per Action), while I prefer CPC (Cost per Click).

However, as I stated earlier, I'll think again about VigLink after next payment cycle from Infolinks.

Cheers.
