AdF.ly is an innovative service that allows you to earn money from each visitor to your shortened links. How this works is actually quite simple.


  1. Create an account with AdF.ly by clicking the Join button on our homepage (http://adf.ly), make sure you select a Publisher account.

  2. You will then need to check your email for our confirmation, please follow the instructions in the email.

  3. Login to your new AdF.ly account.

  4. Enter your favourite website in the big white box and click Shrink! Your first AdF.ly URL will be displayed and will look something like http://adf.ly/?id=1071750

Now that you have an AdF.ly URL that is associated with your account, the work begins.

You will now be paid for every person that clicks on your AdF.ly link, so you need to give it maximum exposure. The easiest way is if you already own a website, you can 'shrink' URLs already on your website and replace them with AdF.ly links. Then your website visitors click on them, you will earn money.

It doesn't matter if you don't own a website, there are plenty of other ways to get people clicking on your AdF.ly links (without spamming!). Here a few ideas:



  1. Facebook. Got a great website to share with your friends? Shrink it with AdF.ly first.

  2. Forums. If you are helping people out on a forum and giving them the answers they require, shrink any website URLs with AdF.ly and then include them in your post. Be absolutely sure you are not spamming though, otherwise you get your account suspended. Always abide by the forum rules.

  3. Twitter. Do you have a Twitter with lots of followers? AdF.ly is perfect for tweeting links that will earn you money.

  4. Anywhere you normally post links! Use your imagination and paid by us every month.
