If you haven’t noticed, my blog’s earnings come from many different sources, not only from Adsense as you can see. I am joining about 4-5 other networks and amazingly they are working very well along with Adsense. Specifically, the revenues from Social Spark and Teliad are just a little behind the Google’s advertising network. Therefore, I will share my experience with the networks so that you can have some references to diversify your revenue sources. This post is my review of Teliad, the German market leader in the area of text link.
Teliad was popular in just Germany a few years ago but they soon realized the limit and expanded it to other languages like French, Italian, Spanish and English. With the great development, Teliad has now become an international SEO services provider offering a wide range of services in the field of SEO link building to support customers. As publishers, this is also a great chance for us to earn some more money. I don’t encourage you to accept all their offers and sell textlinks in mass because it is very dangerous and Google can penalize your site anytime. In the 2 years using Teliad, I’ve sold just a few text links and my site is not affected at all, moreover, I still receive a decent amount each month to my Paypal account.
The secret here is not to be greedy. Some advertisers will give you amazing offers, but you should accept only links to high quality and relevant websites. Say NO to gambling, drug or anything that is not suitable for your readers.
There are 3 ways you can sell links from Teliad:
- Text Links: They are the links integrated in specific URLs , for example, you can create an offer for textlinks on homepage only.
- Post Links: This is a very effective way if your blog has a lot of content. Advertisers buying back links will point out keywords in your blog posts that they want to place links, then you just need to add a link there and receive payments monthly.
- Blog Posts: The program gives you offers to write sponsored reviews with backlinks according to buyer’s specifications. Teliad pays very high rate for these sponsored posts.
The rate you get for selling textlinks is based on the Teliad’s ranking score and ranking index. The Ranking Check is performed when you submit your blog for review.
So, have you joined Teliad network yet and how is it performing on your site?

@Tuan
nice post,
thanx.
You´re right, I wouldn´t place 30 footer links on my site, it´ll be obvious that the´re paid.
I started to sell sponsored posts at social spark but then found out that I could sell my posts also at teliad (so called blog posts). The earnings are good and there is a high request for my blog post offers …
Tikus says
How is Teliad going for you now? Still safe from google?
Tuan Do says
It is still my major earnings. It is safe as long as you sell relevant links, don’t accept all offers you receive.
Tram Tran says
this is so new to me, can you please explain some more a Tuan;)? Thanks for the great tip
Tuan Do says
Hi Tram,
What make you so confused? Teliad is a service provider to help us sell links. You should register for an account and give it a try. If you have any problem, I could help you then. :)
Tram Tran says
Just a quick update that I just registered for teliad ;) how long do you normally wait to get your offers accepted? ;)
Tuan Do says
Hi Tram, great to see you join the network.
It will take about 3-4 days to get accepted. I guess you will need to develop your site further to receive offers as advertisers often look at Google PR, Alexa and Teiliad rank also.
Good luck. :)
SEO Marketing Blog says
Have registered my site on Teliad for selling links and posts, but there are no bookings! my site is PR3, it is a blog about SEO and internet Marketing. Maybe this site is new and the there are not so many visitors ?
How many booking do you have per month?
Tuan Do says
Hi, I have about 6-7 bookings every month, this is one of the best revenue source for my blog at the moment. Hopefully you will receive your offers soon. It took me a few months to get the first offer.
SEO Marketing BLog says
Do i need to promote my blog in Teliad to receive a booking ? Or What influences on the number of bookings, the low blog post price or the Topic of your blog?
Tuan Do says
No, you just need to create your text links on Teliad and wait for offers. The number of bookings depends on the popularity of your blog, advertisers often look at some metrics like Google PageRanks or Teliad ranking system. So I think you just need to continue developing your site and offers will come. :)
Edi Dominic says
You get up to 6-7 bookings a Month? I believe you may be accepting about 3 of them a month, don’t you think this might be harmful to your blog, as Google’s Matt Cutt had said something about selling Links.
Tuan Do says
Yes Edi,
Of course I won’t accept all offers. I review those links carefully and only accept relevant websites with some useful content. I always try making those links natural.
Lisha @ blogandretire says
I just signed up for Teliad and created a few offers for people to grab. It will be awesome if I can get some people to take me up on my offers. I also use linkvehicle and I get a few sponsored posts from that (more than from social spark) and it also seems simpler to me than social spark as well.
Thanks for this review. I was kinda wondering if this site was popular enough to get offers from… we’ll see if my blog is popular enough ;)
~Lisha
Tuan Do says
I see advertisers on Teliad prefers sites with high Pagerank. If you have PR3 or higher, you will receive offers very soon.
I’ve used both Teliad and LinkVehicle but only Teliad could bring me enough offers and monthly income. :)
Lisha says
My blog is currently PR2, but it might grow to PR3 soon, since it didn’t take long to become PR2. It is good to know that you make more with Teliad than link vehicle. I am happy with the amount of offers I get with link vehicle, so I’m sure I’ll be happy with teliad. yay :)
Thanks Tuan

Viano says
Thank you for this great reviews as well as the wonderful contributions from the comment. I was looking for a review of this sit and your post has given me insight on what step to take.
Lucie says
Hi ! im french so sorry for my english ;) i test teliad and its not good because the gains is no more expensive :S
Joseph says
Any idea on how to increase our RankingScore and RankingIndex?
Tuan Do says
Hi Joseph,
The Ranking Score is actually providing information on how your URLs are ranked on Google while Ranking Index is for the whole domain. To increase those numbers, you just need to implement SEO better on your site.
Joseph says
How they calculate it? What are the variables?
Also, it is strange that they rejected strong PR4 sites and accepted crappy PR0’s… Any thoughts on that?
Tuan Do says
Hi Joseph,
They have their own algorithm and they wouldn’t reveal it. All they announced is that they check the keywords that your site can demonstrate a ranking, then calculate how strongly a keyword is contested.
I’m not sure about your rejected site. If they don’t mention the reason, you can contact them directly to ask.
Denzil says
When I want to sell blog articles,check price check calculator, or infact anything, it tells me to check my url. I’ve just registered for Teliad, do I have to wait a few days and try again, or do they not accept .blogspot.com url’s?
Tuan Do says
Hi Denzil,
I’m not sure about the issue. I see there are some blogspot sites there and your site should be accepted. You should contact them for the solution.
Jeff says
I registered with Teliad as a buyer a week ago and purchased some text links for my site. The experience was terrible – no customer support: after I placed an order my messages were unanswered for 3 days; bad business practices: they sell you a link, charge you, and then seller declines your purchase (by some weird reason) and the money goes to your Teliad account as a credit. Finally, they seem to charge ridiculous commissions: I placed a link on one site for $36/month just to discover (when they disclosed the URL after purchase) that the site charges advertises $15 if you deal with them directly. Avoid!
Edi Dominic says
Hi Tuan,
I think teliad is great. I just used the third method you stated, I published a sponsored Post i got from teliad, it’s my first time, but how do you receive the payments.
Sanket says
I joined Teliad lets see how is it BTW nice short and direct to the point post :)
