The Problem
Traditional Link Monetization Pays Almost Nothing
Ad-based link shorteners like AdFly or Linkvertise earn fractions of a cent per click. Your audience has to endure intrusive ad pages — and ad blockers mean you often earn nothing at all.
-
Low CPM revenue — pennies per thousand clicks
-
Poor user experience from ad pages and redirects
-
Ad blockers prevent revenue from a growing share of users
Fractions of a cent per click
Ad-based shorteners pay $0.001–$0.005 per visit on average
Intrusive ad pages and pop-ups
Users must wait through ads before reaching the destination
Ad blockers kill your earnings
40%+ of users block ads — those clicks earn you zero
