If infolinks is fraud why many publishers in India use infolinks. It is ranked nearly 200 in alexa rankings in india. Could anyone suggest whether i can try till the first payment or stop using infolinks.

Hi Mufi,

Your Google PR does not depend on infolink or any other PPC advertising programs they don’t interfere with the Page Rank. I have started using infolinks and initially i am statisfied. My friend has been using infolinks and he has no problem with the payment. He referred me to infolinks. I will write my review once again when i get payment..

I just remove infolink ads from my blog. I am worried that it might affect the Page Rank since it been rewarded PR1 by google in the 2nd months of its old.

Please correct my opinion that infolink will drop Google PR since I knew that google don’t like too many out bond links on a blog/website.

Thank you.

Infolink is a fraud site. After working of $10 they have suspended my account without any proper reason. It is my request to the brother and sister especially from Asian countries to avoid Infolink.

I am using infolinks for in-line text ads, but I’m really getting a very low CTR… I’ve been thinking of using Kontera instead… What do you think?

Infolinks is a SCAM! Beware!!! They will NOT pay you and they will NOT respond to your email requests and phone calls about the pay. They claimed that they never received my tax information a few days before they were suppose to pay within the 30-45 day window (really 45 days) when I had sent it in- how convenient they say this. Not only did I send it in but I also had called & emailed them weeks in advance to confirm that it was received. Of course they never responded.

Here’s what they do when you sign up- they’ll give you decent earnings and then the earnings will fall dramatically. I also had emailed and called them about this a few times and again they never responded. We were about to remove Infolinks from our site, but then the earnings went back up for a little while. My tech department and I suspect that they did this on purpose so we would stay. And then the earnings went back down again for no reason at all, even though our impressions and clicks were at the highest. You have to understand that Infolinks will NOT pay, if you continue to run them on your site, you are wasting your time. They STILL get paid by the advertisers and all you get is used. Don’t waste your time and put this scam company out of business.

Take a few minutes and report them to the Attorney General’s office in both California and New York; to the Better Business Bureau; to RipOff Reports; file with a collections agency; and the International Trade Commission. And don’t forget to post your negative experience on every legitimate site to warn other website owners. I will be posting on multiple forums to warn others. I have already seen other postings from fellow bloggers who have similar stories to mine. I wish I had seen these before or that they had existed when I signed up.

I also suspect this SHAY person is a fake and not even his/her real name. There is supposedly someone named Noa M. who works there. Here is his information for anyone who wants to try to collect their payment:
Noa M.
Account Manager
Infolinks, Inc.

T 212-201-7481
F 212-419-0975
E “noam@infolinks.com’
W “www.infolinks.com”

They also say you can contact “support@infolinks.com”. But good luck in getting someone to respond to you.

I have wasted more than 5 months of my time with this company and about another month chasing them around for my payment. They’re not worth the headache. Don’t you get scammed too!
