23/08: Text Link Ads Important Update

UPDATE:- Since writing this post, it appears that TLA have decided to abandon this course of action - best advice, don't make any changes until you hear further from TLA. Thanks to Ian Fernando for his latest post on the topic of Text Link Ads and TinyURL 

If you didn't receive an email from Text Link Ads or if you are not already a member, you need to make sure that your links are updated as soon as possible as they have decided to use Tinyurl for all referral links. You have about a week to update your links as after this time, the old ones will no longer function.

If you are not using Text Link Ads already, you might want to take a look at the company who are helping a great number of bloggers to monetize their sites quickly and simply, whatever current advertising arrangements you have in place already, TLA are a worthy addition to your strategies.

Further information and reading - I should perhaps  make clear that the use of Tinyurl relates to member's affiliate links and also point readers in the direction of Andy Beard's excellent post entitled Will The FTC Investigate Google & Matt Cutts for Paid Links? about the ongoing paid links/Google struggle which probably isn't going to get resolved any time soon and certainly not to the satisfaction of all parties.
