Linkbucks Review – URL Shortener

Linkbucks is one of the oldest paid URL shortener website where you get paid for sharing your shorten links on internet. Linkbucks is a CPA, CPM, CPC model based URL shortener and that is the thing that makes it different from other URL shorteners, which offer either CPM or CPA ads but not both.
Linkbucks was started late in 2005 and from then it has never looked back. Linkbucks is continuously growing and becoming stronger and stronger every year. Linkbucks is not only a very old ad network but its a very popular network too.
There are various reasons that makes it a very popular network like, it offers two types of ads one is CPM based interstitial ads which pay for each and every view and the other is CPA based link locker ads, these ads are also interstitial ads but here you get paid only when your visitor completes an action like completing a survey, registering on a website etc. Usually link locker ads pay much higher than CPM based ads.
