Erik’s Blog: Board Shorts and Business Suits

Some of you might remember a while back when I started bad mouthing Text Link Ads. Ads on this blog weren’t selling while I saw links on other blogs, blogs that didn’t have as high a PR or traffic rankings as I did, selling like hot cakes!

I noticed that my blog wasn’t listed in the correct categories and that my description was never changing even though I had tried to change it many times. I also had a few other blogs listed didn’t even get into the listings. I emailed a few times to the support team and had no response worth anything. I had all but written them off.

But I stuck with them and I’m glad. Although I’ve done a few things differently around my blogs to make them more “advertiser friendly,” Text Link Ads has become a lot more responsive. They’ve drastically decreased their turn-around time for answering emails. I know email them with questions and within a day I get a response.

Also, I contacted them directly about several blogs that hadn’t been accepted yet but had good PR, traffic, and solid back-links, and I was able to get those in. This has increased my exposure on their site, and I’ve been able to really boost my earnings over there.

Thanks for improving your service TLA. It’s always good to see a company respond to complaints.
