What is Adf.ly? How Does it Work?

Adfly is actually an extremely easy process. First you type in the link you would like to shorten. Adfly shortens the link for you and you place it on your blog 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. O and of course you get paid for it.
Sometimes my explanations are not the best so it is easier just to show. Click the link below to see what I mean!

Click Here for Example 



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 article. When you clicked on that ad I just made $.0005.
That is how adf.ly works and as you can see it’s pretty simple.


How Much Will Adfly Pay You

There are two different rates of payment for the two different adfly banners. Of course the  interstitial ad pays the most because no sign of your link is visible and a full page advertisement is shown. The banner ad pays less and you can see the breakdown below.
Interstitial Ad: Pays up to $5.00 per 1000 views. or $.0005 a view
Banner Ad: I have seen these pay up to $3.00 per 1000 views or $.0003 a view

How To Get Paid By Adfly

One great thing about Adfly is they do offer some good ways to get paid. Adfly offers payments through PayPal, Payza, and Payoneer. Most of you will use PayPal which is my preference of the three
Adfly has a minimum cash out amount of $5.00 for Paypal and Payza. If you choose to use Payoneer the minimum cash out amount is $10.00.


Adfly Referral Program

Afly offers a great referral program. By referring publishers, or people who post links like you, you will receive 20% of all their earnings for life. You can also refer an advertiser or someone who pays for advertising with adfly. You will earn 5% of what those referrals spend on advertising.
As a member of Adfly you will have access to about 20 different banners to place on your blog of all different sizes you can see an example below.

My Adfly Review

Company Information:

Website: Adf.ly.com
Cost: Free
Score: 90 out of 100
Verdict: LEGIT
I feel that Adfly is a completely legit company. In my month-long review I found nothing wrong with the company at all. The system always worked, I seemed to always get credit for clicks, and support was good. I really don’t have anything bad to say about this company.
I gave adfly a 90 out of 100 just because I have not personally seen money from this company so I am not 100% sure they pay, but I am 99%. Also it will be extremely hard to reach the minimum cash out amount if you don’t have tons of traffic.
Now I will say I don’t recommend using Adfly for everyone. I feel that it really doesn’t make sense for most internet marketers to use this company, but I will touch on this at the end of the review.

My thoughts on Adfly

Once again I have found nothing wrong with the Adfly company, I think they are great. But here my few concerns about the link shortening idea in general.

Will it be possible to reach the cash-out amount:

I believe that there is and it’s possible for people to reach the minimum cash out amount in just a couple of days or each month. But the thing is this is not realistic for a small blog owner or someone posting links on social media.
Unless you have a website with hundreds, maybe even thousands, of visitors each day I don’t think making a lot of money through adfly is possible.
Now I don’t think Adfly is screwing us all over with these rates per click. I think they are fair rates for just showing an ad while being redirected somewhere else, because although companies paying for the advertising are getting their name out there. No one who clicks on the link has any interest in the advertisement.

Does it fit you website plan:

I have brought this up multiple times throughout the review and now I am actually going to fully explain. Adfly just doesn’t make sense for me to use on my website or social media accounts. As some of you may know I am an internet marketer that makes 95% of my money online through affiliate marketing. Why would I want my visitors being bombarded by ads that will earn me $.0005 a pop when they could lead to a $50 probably even more sale. Doesn’t make much sense does it.
I find that most of you will probably agree that I would be wasting my time trying to make money with Adfly because my main goal is what lies on the other side of that adfly ad.
Even with social media I do post affiliate links and links to my website, but why would I want someone not visiting my site because they were interrupted by an ad.
Maybe I am just crazy, and maybe your situation is different. If it is by all means use adfly because it is a great company.
