Shorte.st

In the heart of Europe a team of young internet enthusiasts came together to create a product that will give you a better way to earn money online. They've created a link shortener connected with advertising network so now you get paid when you shorten a link and make someone click on it. Easy way to earn extra money.


Shorte.st offers many tools to help you earn money
  • Quick Links – Basically just copy your destination address with a special API token. You can find it after logging in and going to tools.
  • API (for developers)
  • Website Monetization – This one’s great for anyone who has a big website. Just place the code in your header/footer, and the tool turns all the links in your site into shortened Shorte.st links. Or you can chose only to only show it for leaving/coming visitors.
  • Share widget – This one doesn’t only encourages visitors to share your page, but also lets them share your site through a Shorte.st link.

An interesting fact is that Shorte.st provides different rates for different countries. The highest rates go to the USA, currently at $2.00 per 1000 views. The lowest rates go to Eritrea, a country in Africa $0.3 per thousand views, but the average is somewhere between 0.0007-0.001.

Linkbucks

Another way of making money online by posting links on social media, forums and blogs is Linkbucks. This company also pays you to use their link shortening service.


How Does it Work?
Using Linkbucks is actually an extremely easy process. First you type in the link you would like to shorten. Linkbucks shortens the link for you and you place it on your forums, social media or anywhere you would like. When people click on your link they’re redirected to a short ad and then brought to your desired URL, and you'll get paid for it.


If you clicked the link above you will be brought to a page that looks something like this! The ad can be different, but you get the picture.

Example of an intermission ad
After you view the ad for 5 seconds in the top right hand corner you’re able to click skip ad and you will be brought back to this site.

Ad Types:
Linkbucks has two different types of ads that you can display through your links, intermission ads & Locker ads. Intermission ads show up before the page you linked. Since these ads bring more views, you get paid more per view. These ads will forward the viewer to the target link after 15 seconds or the instant they click on the “continue” button. Locker ads are similar to the Intermission ads except the user has to complete a survey before being allowed to proceed to their destination. These ads pay much more money then any other ad and are recommended for exclusive content. Example here

Payout via PayPal, Payza or Payoneer.
