Once you've created your account, login to Linkbucks (if you don't have an account yet, click here to do so).
To start shortening links and earning money, you'll have to click on the Create Links tab.
1. Once you're there, use the form shown below to convert a single link to a paid link. The best example of a link to convert is a download link. Take a file link from e.g. MediaFire, http://www.mediafire.com/?4tninznya3q
2. Copy the download link and paste it in the Link to Convert: textbox. Make sure you include the http:// or the https:// part of the link.
3. Choose the Page Content type (whether your link includes adult content or not). DO NOT disorganize the link page content, or your account will be banned forever.
4. Next, choose the Ad Type for your paid link, which will pay you for the user watching the ad. This is the step where you choose how much money you'll earn and what type of ad you'll display when the user clicks on your link. The Ad Types are described below:
- Short Link: This ad type does not show any ad before your link. This type of link is not really an Ad Type, you only use it to shorten links. You do not earn money with this ad type
- Top Banner: This ad type does not show an ad before the site, but instead the ad is shown at the top of the website. You do not earn too much with this ad type, nor is it too annoying to the users
- Side Banner: This ad type works like the Top Banner ad type, but instead showing the ad on the top of the website, it displays it on the left side of the webpage. You will earn the same money as you would earn choosing the Top Banner ad type
- Intermission: This ad type is the most popular, and earns you the most money. It displays the ad before the website, and shows a small SKIP AD button on the top right corner of the webpage. However, it may bother some people
- Locker Link: This link does not show any ad before the website, but instead locks the webpage content and requires us to unlock the webpage by completing a given survey or task. Many users exit the webpage without completing the survey, but this type earns us the most money.
5. Once selected, choose the Alias URL name. You will see a long list of URLs, all of which are a property of Linkbucks. All these URLs are registered under Linkbucks. Select a different URL if you want your shortened paid link to be a different name. NOTE: Alias URLs will redirect the users to www.Linkbucks.com.
6. Once you have completed all the options, click on the Generate Link button.
Your link will be generated and you can share on different websites to earn money when users click it!
