Points can be in turn used to buy links for your websites or cashed out. The current exchange rate is $0.63 for 1000 points. PR4 pages at Ghacks generate 3750 points which equals roughly $2.36 per month for that page. A PR5 page would earn double that amount per month.

If you compare the prices to Text Link Ads you see that you could earn more money from TNX especially if you take into consideration that up to 4 links can be played on every page of your website.

I have currently earned 75000 points with Ghacks which is about $50. It takes some time until links have been placed on all pages. I currently have links on about 40 pages which is not much. I do delete all links on PR0 pages because this earns me just 7.5 points which is next to nothing in my opinion. 1000 Links on PR0 pages would earn me $5 which is ridiculous. So, all PR0 links get deleted.

My estimation is that I could earn about $300 per month from playing one link on every page that has a Pagerank greater than 0 or $1200 if I go for the overkill and place four links on each page.

Points can also be sold in webmaster forums and in the forum at TNX which unfortunately has no activity at all at the moment. I suppose you could try and sell points at forums like Digitalpoint or Namepros instead for a better conversion rate than $0.63 because webmasters buying links do pay $1.2 for 1000 points at the moment.

The value of a link depends on the pagerank of the site, the total amount of incoming links, the category of the website and the number of outgoing links. A calculator on the TNX website gives webmasters a rough idea on how much they could make from TNX with their site.

The amount of backlinks is fetched automatically. Webmasters need to edit the website category and amount of pages that have a certain pagerank. Ghacks for instance has a link popularity of 99862 and 2290 pages. At the beginning all those pages were assigned a pagerank of 0 which resulted in a monthly income of $10.91.

While this does not seem very impressive it becomes so when adding pages with a higher pagerank to the calculation. I was not able to find out the pagerank of all of my internal pages. If my site would have 100 PR5 links it would earn more than $450 per month if all links were sold and one link would be displayed on each page. The maximum amount of four links would lead to $1839.

This means the average webmaster will be able to earn more from TNX than from Text Link Ads or other advertisers.The links can be placed as php code which should be suitable for most webmasters and have to be visible and not be placed at the bottom of the site. Placing them below your articles for instance should be fine.

A great feature are the payment methods, paypal, check and wire for instance are supported.

Adding Sites to TNX:

Adding sites to TNX’s network is pretty easy. Add the php code to your website first. Wordpress users can add the code for instance to their single.php file which means that every article page will contain the code automatically.

After adding the code you have to add the site to the system itself. Just add url and several other parameters like site language and you are ready to go. It takes between 1-3 days to get a site accepted – or rejected. When the site is accepted you are ready to earn money with TNX.

The main advantage for webmasters is that advertisers only select a category, the amount of sites and the pageranks that they want to buy. Everything else is done automatically by the TNX script. This means that it does not matter if you are John Chow or John Doe, no one will have advantages in this system.

Pages cost a certain amount of points to order which can be exchanged into cash, here is how much each page costs and brings.

Minimum Link Prices:

PR 0: 0001 point ($0,00114)
PR 1: 0050 points ($0.057)
PR 2: 0100 points ($0,114)
PR 3: 0200 points ($0,228)
PR 4: 0500 points ($0,57)
PR 5: 1000 points ($1,14)
PR 6: 2500 points ($2,85)
PR 7: 5000 points ($5,7)

This means that advertisers can buy 20000 PR0 pages for a little bit more than $11.

Minimum Earnings:

TNX’s commission is 12.5% which means that you earn 0,85 points per PR0 link and 875 points for every PR5 link.

Referring other webmasters:

If you refer other webmasters you do earn 13,5% of the points that they earn (lifetime earnings) which can sum up quite nicely over time. You will also receive 5% of all payments made by those referred webmasters.
