I am not exactly sure when this happened, but it finally did...InfoLinks finally went multisite...I had asked for this months and months ago after they approved a second site for me, they actually suggested I sing up for a second account. What? Yeah, a second account, that would be a lot of fun to get reports from and all that.Well, in logging in a few days I noticed they finally added the ability to have multiple sites in a single account and keep track of performance of each web site individually and totals. Each web site can be configured differently regarding link styles, colors and amount allowed per page.
InfoLinks, when I first started, was pretty amazing regarding revenue for such a one trick pony style of ads. The only thing they do is in text ads, and they do it pretty well, their one weakness, in my opinion, was fixed with this multisite feature. However, revenues have dropped over the last few months, like most advertising systems have. InfoLinks was the last one I saw drop, but it certainly has. It still performs better than Kontera ever did for me in their best days, which was the in text system I used just before InfoLinks.
Thanks to the new multisite feature I was finally able to dump Kontera from the site I still had their ads on...and got to add them to this blog for example...I can assure you this blog isn't much for revenue. :-(
Thanks, InfoLinks.

Bloggers, beware of INFOLINKS! They are a SCAM! Here is what one blogger posted on another forum and it is in link with my experience. Read my negative experience with InfoLinks after this blogger's posting.
"I worked with Infolinks from June 2009 to now, but I have never received payment from Infolinks, although my balance is more than $250.
My earning for June 2009 - September 2009 is approximately $200, and they did not issue to me in 11/16/2009,beside they said:they were sent out the payment and my paypal account has denied the payment.
But in this date and there after dates, I received some payments from other companies, those are ok, no problems with my paypal account.
And today, I tried sending and receiving with my paypal account before I post this thread to Sitepoint.It's still ok.
Can anyone give me an answer?"
Here is my negative experience & warning:
Infolinks is a SCAM! Beware!!! They will NOT pay you and they will NOT respond to your email requests and phone calls about the pay. They claimed that they never received my tax information a few days before they were suppose to pay within the 30-45 day window (really 45 days) when I had sent it in- how convenient they say this. Not only did I send it in but I also had called & emailed them weeks in advance to confirm that it was received. Of course they never responded.
Here's what they do when you sign up- they'll give you decent earnings and then the earnings will fall dramatically. I also had emailed and called them about this a few times and again they never responded. We were about to remove Infolinks from our site, but then the earnings went back up for a little while. My tech department and I suspect that they did this on purpose so we would stay. And then the earnings went back down again for no reason at all, even though our impressions and clicks were at the highest. You have to understand that Infolinks will NOT pay, if you continue to run them on your site, you are wasting your time. They STILL get paid by the advertisers and all you get is used. Don't waste your time and put this scam company out of business.
Take a few minutes and report them to the Attorney General's office in both California and New York; to the Better Business Bureau; to RipOff Reports; file with a collections agency; and the International Trade Commission. And don't forget to post your negative experience on every legitimate site to warn other website owners. I will be posting on multiple forums to warn others. I have already seen other postings from fellow bloggers who have similar stories to mine. I wish I had seen these before or that they had existed when I signed up.
I also suspect this SHAY person is a fake and not even his/her real name. There is supposedly someone named Noa M. who works there. Here is his information for anyone who wants to try to collect their payment:
Noa M.
Account Manager
Infolinks, Inc.
T 212-201-7481
F 212-419-0975
E noam@infolinks.com
W www.infolinks.com
They also say you can contact support@infolinks.com. But good luck in getting someone to respond to you.
I have wasted more than 5 months of my time with this company and about another month chasing them around for my payment. They're not worth the headache. Don't you get scammed too!
I approved the previous comment in the interest of fairness...but I call BS...just another tin foil hat wearing tool blaming others for their failures.
