Link Love

After a successful launch, TNX.net has amassed more than 35,000 users sharing a gargantuan 30,570,876 links – and counting. We’ve been paying close attention to TNX and while we initially had out reservations about the service, we think it’s something that everybody should look into, which is why we’re going to have a little peak at it today to find out exactly what TNX can offer you. It’s all about links, baby, and lots of them.

The mission of TNX is outlined as follows:
- Assist website owners in attracting targeted visitors and clients from search engines and relevant websites.
- Reduce the dependence on search engines.
- Improve quality of the search results for those websites that join TNX system.
- Increase the income of every webmaster who joins TNX system.
Although at first the whole TNX system can be a little overwhelming, once you get into it, any confusion is outweighed by the enormous benefits your blog or website will receive. To get started, you need to sign up for TNX and then add a bit of code into your blog. Most bloggers add the code into their footers. For an example of what the code looks like on a blog, head over to World of Angel and scroll down to the bottom of the page.
Once the code is installed, you add your blog to the system and wait for approval. TNX sells links on each individual page of your blog, up to four links a page. The value of links is based on the Page Rank of the page and you are paid in TNX points. The value is also determined by your chosen niche.
I’ve had TNX running on World of Angel for a while now, and I am earning about 11 points for PR0 links up to 5,625 points for PR4 links. I left my account unattended for a few weeks with a campaign running (I forgot about it, to be honest) and when I returned, I found that I had 69 active links on other websites and about 65,000 points as my balance. While it sounds like a lot, those points are worth only $0.68 per 1,000, which would mean I could cash out for about $40.
TNX isn’t going to make you rich because the links are so cheap, so you are better off using your points to buy links. As an example, on the TNX website it is pointed out that 20,000 points could get you for a month:
- 20,000 PR0 links
- 400 PR1 links
- 200 PR2 links
- 100 PR3 links
- 40 PR4 links
- 20 PR5 links

Those links could be very valuable. To get links on other blogs, you need to set up a campaign, which can be a little daunting at first. You choose your niche(s) and select how many Yahoo! backlinks the sites you are advertising on should have, as well as their Page Rank. You then choose which language sites you want to target. You then need to set up your creatives, including your anchor texts and which of your pages they will point to.
It’s recommended that you make at least 10 creatives. Once you’re done, you choose how many links you want to appear on different websites determined by Yahoo! backlinks, Page Rank and niche category. You then send your campaign for approval and wait for it to kick in.

Points can, of course, be bought, for an average of $1.3 per 1,000, although the price can be as low as $0.65 if you buy in bulk. I haven’t bought any points for my campaign because they seem to be racking up by themselves with the code on my blog.
TNX also offers an affiliate program that pays 13.3% of points generated by your referrals. You receive 5% of payments made by referred advertisers. We used out affiliate links in this post to try and test the system out.
TNX is a great way to get free text link ads and the system has improved greatly since we first took a look at it. Creating campaigns has been made a lot easier and our initial confusion was short lived. Sign up now and get linking.
























Thanks for more information on TNX. I keep seeing their 125×125 banners on other sites, but never clicked on them. Now, you just made me a little more interested; going to check them out right now.
Hmmmmm….interesting. Not sure I’d use it for my personal blog, but launching a retro gaming blog shortly, may use it for that.
That’s impressive link building there. Maybe I should take a shot at tnx
Sorry cow but I dont liek linking schemes. They don;t work for 99% of people who try them. You have to do what works and this isnt one of them.
I’ve talked to a number of people who have been using TNX. Some very happy advertisers (because of the volume of links), but a number of publishers went from being happy to concerned.
The reason being that they weren’t happy with the targeting system, especially with Google now on the war path. It left a number of rather questionable (unrelated) links on pages, which they viewed as the type of thing Google could pick up on and penalise a site for.
As a novice, I had some of the same concerns that Simon mentions. Aren’t the search engines banning people who subscribe to “link farms?”
Am I wrong in thinking that TNX is such a farm?
Cow, you know about farms right?
i agree, maybe i should check out tnx.
Wow, I didn’t know TNX is that simple to use haha. I signed up before, but I never gave it a try.

So it works if you have good pagerank and a lot of links up. I think this program is better to expand and promote your network instead earn money :P. Thanks btw
I’m still not sold on this one.
I would check out this Sphinn story on TNX first beofre making any decisions:

This is worth to try actually, i already registered. and will surely give em a try.
Is tnx really worthed?
I am sceptical about it, do you really gain visitors and money with it?

I talked to some others who had used it - and they had a lot of problems with ads being placed on their site in other languages, for download mp3, payday loans and other things that made it look like spam on their site. Not to mention that there is no ad targetting.
You’re unlikely to make much money with TNX but you can get a lot of links. Irrelevant links is an issue, but you can control which links are displayed.
Sounds like a more advanced form of Entrecard. I like it.
Sign up give it a try its a great product that has really helped out our business and it can do the same for yours
Very nice! It is very simple. Simpler than I blogocola thought
