Service Description
Linkbucks is a very unique advertising membership program created by internet marketer Charles Major that allows people to modify their own links so that they can earn ad revenue from them. This program works on the pay-per-click system, working with advertisers to get their ads seen in a variety of places on the internet.
Detailed Overview
Linkbucks uses a pretty innovative idea for its advertising program, although at first it can be a little confusing trying to figure it all out. Though some more internet and script-savvy people might not have a problem understanding it, beginners may have a lot more difficulty.
When you get past the Linkbucks tech-speak, it’s really fairly simple. As a blogger or a forum poster, you often have links in your signature that lead people to your website. As a website owner, you often put links on your site to other websites, perhaps if you’re trading links or linking to an affiliate website.
When you become a member of Linkbucks, you can submit these links to their program, and they will modify them with code, then you put the modified links on your website, blog, or in your signature. When people click on your links, they will still go where you want them to, but because of the added code, they’ll see an intermission ad for a few seconds first, or they’ll see a framed banner on the top of your destination page.
When someone clicks on your specially coded Linkbucks link, you earn money. You don’t get a lot for one click, but if you get a lot of clicks, your earnings can add up. The advertiser gets what they want, people are still linking to where you want them to go, and you’re making some extra money all at the same time.
Reputation
Feedback on Linkbucks is overwhelmingly positive. Though nobody is claiming to make a lot of money through the program, nobody really expects to. What members do report is that they are always paid on time, that the coded links never cause them any trouble, and that support is always quick and helpful when needed.
Domain "Whois"
The Whois information for a website lists the owner and their contact information. The Whois information for "LinkBucks" is public which is generally a good thing. This indicates the owner of this site has nothing to hide.

One word - waste of time
When I first hear about linkbucks, people said it was great. I tried it and at first it was great, but it slowly died out. It took me around 5 months to get the minimum payout $5. Because linkbucks is well known to most people, when they see your link they know you will make money if they click on it, which is why they don't click your links. More importantly, most high-traffic forums banned linkbucks links, so as of today, it is pretty hard to make decent amount of money from linkbucks. So if you don't want to spend a lot of time searching forums and posting, I suggest you don't even start.

Trusted service, but slow
From the experiences that I have to make some money with LinkBucks you must have a lot of great patience. I used this service from about 6 months ago and so far I have earned about $ 300. I have 11 referrals, but I earned 1$ from them.
The service is easy to use but takes some time and work. It took me some time to learn how to create my own links but then working with them is quite easy. Moreover, I can use different techniques for making money but I have to reiterate that it takes me a long time. I use LinkBucks mostly for my blogs and find that the profit is not too much but is satisfactory. I have not had a problem with payments on their part.

Not for everyone
Linkbucks is a good money making solution. I am a blogger and I use it everyday. I cashed out about 4 times already, the payments were on time like they said. I had a conversation with the admin. He is very friendly and helped me out numerous times. However, their PPV rates are low for some users who aren't that popular. I do not recommend this to users who could not get about 100 clicks a day to one link. I will continue using this service, as I have not found any other service like this with a better PPV rate.

Linbucks good
I love their layout & the website is easy to use. The admin is nice & is always ready to help those who need it. They also pay twice a month. This website is legit & well worth your time. I have been paid over 16 dollars on the site in one month & all I had to do was sit back & let the funds come in. This is a great site to make easy funds with. If you are in to blogging or online marketing you can make some nice funds with this program.
This website is legit & well worth your time.

Achieved great results
I joined LinkBucks around four months ago and the results I achieved were not bad. I was able to get two cashouts and I am glad I tried the site despite of the small earnings I've made. Creating different links is a straight forward process and in a short amount of time you can create hundreds of links directing to your site. For people using advertisement platforms like me, this proved to be a useful thing since it is better having more than one link. It takes tons of time to earn money through the links you've made. For me earning at LinkBucks is not a priority and the advertising side of the site is the thing I am more interested in. The concept really has a lot of potential. Thanks to the site I got a lot of new sign-ups and also increased sales with around five percent which is not a bad result actually. If you put some effort then you can definitely make some effective promotions. Overall I would recommend trying the site out since in my case at least it worked perfectly.

Works, But Takes Forever
I would not recommend this service to anyone. I used it to try and make money from links posted on my blog and on various forums. But after using the service for 18 months I had only made five dollars. The service pays out and works, but it takes a very long time to make any amount of money using it. There are more efficient ways you could be spending your time other than using linkbucks. I give this site a C because even though it works, I cannot recommend it as it simply takes too long to make any money.

Not really enough money to spend
You shouldn't expect to make much on here but a couple of cents. The amount of clicks it takes to even make a couple hundred dollars a month is just too much to even be worth it. Also another problem is the constant popups and advertisements they make the "clickers" go through may discourage them from clicking the links or going through with them. I don't get several thousand hits a day to a website so this did not work out for me and I discontinued using it.

Not Even Worth the Effort
This website is not even worth the effort.
First of all, they only pay about . 01 cent per click sometimes less. I started trying this and after two weeks, even with many people clicking on it, it only gets somewhat near 50 cents. I would never recommend this site for anyone because they don't pay high and there is a forty click limit per day, so If you get traffic that has over one hundred people, this site is worthless for you. You need so many clicks just to get one dollar and there are better websites out there right now. I would only use this site if you had a lot of free time on your hands, if you do not then please do not use this website.

Hard Way Of Making Money
Earning with linkbucks is very slow and time consuming. They pay a very small amount for your hard work. Only $1 for 2000 clicks. About 7 months ago I joined linkbucks and started posting my links to my blog and also to forums like ND-warez and 3 others. But after 1 month I was hardly able to make about $15 which is not enough. Still I'm posting my links because it is a little source of income for me. If you have extra time then you can manage, but keep in mind that you are not going to make huge amount of money with linkbucks. It can just fulfill your small needs.

Good Way to Earn a Few Pennies
LinkBucks is a great site for earning a few extra dollars, but that's about it. Unless you have hundreds of thousands of people clicking on your LinkBucks links, then you aren't going to be earning big bucks any time soon. They pay less than a penny per click so it really is difficult for the average internet user to make any real money with them. After using the site for more than a year I haven't even earned enough to reach the $5 cash out, so I eventually gave up on Linkbucks. They do have a few advertisement options and some pay more than others, such as the intermission ads, which appear before the site you want your LinkBucks link to direct to, which I would suggest in order to maximize earnings. But I do find their ads to be a little intrusive as they consume the whole page and many people clicking on your links might simply exit the page because of the ads before even seeing your site, which is what I have done.

Awesome Service!
As you may all know, linkbucks is a pay per click service, which pays you every time a user clicks on a linkbucks generated link. Roughly $1 per 2000 clicks. For me linkbucks has been a great service, so far I have added 70 referrals to my account, which gets me $2 per day, with me doing absolutely nothing ( That is $60 per month ). To make great income with linkbucks, you should mainly target sites which have a substantial number of views daily. This is the key to scoring users to click on your links. Plus as a bonus you need to provide the right content that link will redirect to, so that it reaches the User's intent.

Not even worth your time
I tried this about three weeks ago because I thought it was easy money. But I was wrong! After about 2 weeks you would think after putting it all over your website it would get you a lot of money but your wrong it got me like 50 cents. I don't recommend this for anyone at all. the pros of this product is that they of course give you money for just clicking, but the cons are that you need a whole lot of clicking to get a whole lot of money, so it's ultimately not good. So in my opinion, the cons beat the pros and I don't recommend this for anyone unless you have a whole lot of free time in your agenda.

Not good at all!
Poor payment, unless you have a ridiculous amount of referrals or a huge website and are prepared for your visitors to be annoyed by countless banners and 15 second pop-ups, I do not recommend this site. I tried this site for a little extra money but found it useless. Most forums have recognized this site and have banned linkbucks advertising so renders you unable to make enough money and could get you a nice little ban from a community.
However, payment is made on time and is not a scam in anyway. Instant payments per links occur and you can monitor the traffic through links to see which ones are more active.
Conclusion: I would not recommend this site as it does not provide a lot of money and provides too much hassle to your visitors who just want to browse around without annoying pop-ups or ads.

Many Links needed for Bucks
LinkBucks is a great site for page referrer hiding, and can be good as a source of income if you either have many links or many visitors. Personally, I have made around 35 cents in almost a year with this service. However, I do not do any spamming or advertising of the links. LinkBucks also has a forum for it's members where you may be able to learn better tips if you want to make money with the service.

Great service
Words cannot express how easy it is to earn money. I've had a great time using linkbucks on my blog links. I was earning upwards of $13 in a week, simply by replacing my old links with linkbucks redirecting links. Easiest money you will ever make doing close to nothing on your part. Recommended to anyone who has their own website or posts links a lot.

Slower than a speeding snail
I started using LinkBucks last year after seeing a promo in one of the exchanges. I was really impressed until after joining I saw the number of clicks my links would have to get to make a half way decent amount of money, over 1,000 clicks. Unless you have a site or your link is very popular, you'll be waiting a very very long time to make a $1. After 8 months, I've only earned 2 cents. But if you want to shorten your url and be able to keep track of the url you shortened, it's pretty good.

Lame. Too hard. Not worth it
You get paid like a thousandth of a penny for a click. It'll take you about 012938402938429034 clicks to even get a few bucks. Unless you want to waste your life, DO NOT, DO NOT, use this site.
I used it for a year and earned 2 dollars. Why do people take time to do this. IDK, you could be using other sites and making 200x the amount you would make with the time you would spend doing linkbucks.
IMO this site fails.

Only if you get a lot of visitors and got the time
I came across this site a lot when visiting different forums. Later I checked this site out about what it was and what it does and I found out it gives you money for redirecting people to another link.
I gave it a try and found out that you can best use this service when you have a lot of viewers to your website or forums.
The amount of money you receive when people click on the link is really low.
After a few months I got paid out about ~20 USD and was kinda disappointed because I get a lot of traffic and they click a lot on those links.
This is only useful when you get A LOT of traffic to your site and got the time to convert those links.

Bad Payments and Requires a lot of traffic!
OK,
I've been signed up on linkbucks for about 2 months and thought it was good at first.
I found that the best way for me to produce traffic was to sign up to a warez forum and link your download links through linkbucks.
of course if you got a download that has a real high demand your gonna get a fair amount of traffic so this worked good for me.
I made about $10 in the 2 months I was using linkbucks but when it came to payments I had to wait for 2 weeks.
which lead me to think it's a scam...
But I got payment in the end, wasn't totally worth it because I got told off a few times on forums because of the linkbucks link...
Overall... I personally I don't think linkbucks is worth the time and hassle.

Only work with social media sites
Linkbuck is a good program to earn with your links. I have applied link buck with my twitter and face-book account through some article promotion and the result was quite good. But when I apply it with my own blog then I found the visitors are jumping from my blog. Any one have only some premium content can use this program to earn more with his site where the visitors will wait to see the content. Other wise it will only work with social-media sites to earn some lazy bucks.

It's a complex process to use
Linkbucks at first appeared to be a great way to make some money but after a few months I had made around two cents, an unsatisfactory amount. During the few months I was creating and posting the links on as many areas as I could to try to get as many clicks as I could with no success. The system Linkbucks works on is not working well because the links you put out are able to be skipped so people tend to ignore them. If you have a high traffic website using the links that you create may be more successful but with the rate of $002 a click you would need high traffic. In my final remarks I must say the idea that Linkbucks has seems like it could be successful but needs more time. Remember though the program is still in it's beta so there may be more to come.

Only use this if you have a lot of traffic
This site is not one you should use if you're looking to make a lot of money because you will need a lot of traffic. I have gotten about $2 spending tons of time into that website. Still, even if you do get a lot of traffic this website will not be paying you what you're site is worth when you can be making way more money using services like ad-sense which pay very well and don't annoy the user clicking the links because of all the pop-ups. So when it comes down to it, do not use this service because they'll be making more money. It drives away valuable traffic, and you won't get disappointed when you see your mere . 20 cents go up.

Miserable Payments
The point of Linkbucks is that when people click on your link, you get money. The only problem with that is that it is pathetic money. If you display a banner at the top of your blog/website you earn something around $0002 with every click. If you choose for the pop-up method on your website, you can earn perhaps a little bit more than that. This means that you need at least several thousands of visits to your website or that many people clicking that link. If you have a good traffic website, that is great. But after three months or so I just got over a dollar, so I immediately gave up. Bad experience for me.

Good but not perfect
I've been using LinkBucks for a while now and while it is easy to use and works well it's still hard to earn with it. You must have a really good website or some other ways to make people click your links.
I've been using it to earn some extra every time I need to post a link, but so far I haven't been able to earn too much.
However like I said before, if you have a good website or other means to get lot of clicks then it really is trustworthy and can make you some nice extra income.

Don't try this!
I have been using linkbucks a year or two years. At first I thought that it was a great way to make money.
All you do is just convert the url link that you have in to the linkbucks url converter tools until you'll get the converted link. Then you can post your links into any sites or forums so that it can be clicked by people, and you'll get your cash.
But the fact is that the only room where people usually place their links is in forums. I used to place my links in some several forums, but the fact is that almost all forums don't allow links from linkbucks, so in other words, is that linkbucks is banned from almost all forum sites!
So, I just wanna share this to you, don't you ever try this linkbucks service! It's a waste of time..

LinkBucks waste of time?
LinkBucks is a site that advertises your link and if other people click on it you will receive cash. On my experience with it I would not recommend it to others as I have advertised my link for a month and only received 7$ which is nothing.
But don't take me wrong it could be profitable if you had a lot of people everyday clicking on you links, but it would take hard work also I think LinkBucks need to change a few things in there site.
So for that I grade this a D.

Been a member for a while
I have actually been on linkbucks for a while now. I have not actually got paid yet from the site, but I can say that I am glad that I found it. One of the best things I like about it is that you are able to make hundreds of different links that can point to the same website. This can be very useful for doing advertising on craigslist and on vinefire type of sites. This way you can change the add around a little then make a new link and put it in the ad. This way you can post multiple times on craigslist if you want. Another great feature of course is being able to get paid from people clicking on your links too. You will not be getting rich from it but it is extra free money that can be made for pretty much just doing your regular advertising. If you wanting to join linkbucks just for the money aspect then I would say not to. But if you want to join it because it gives you ways to have multiple links and ways to advertise then I would say go for it.

Their AD filter does not work
I had joined linkbucks some months back. And I have never cashed out even though the minimum payout was $5 when I joined. I had also joined some other referral programs. And I used linkbucks for posting those referral url's. So, in a way, I thought I was getting double advantage.
But they have this parameter called 'performance score'. If all the traffic is from US IP's, then you will get a 100% performance score. But mine was only 38%. Surely, we cannot control the traffic. Any internet marketer will wish to have international traffic. This was one drawback I found out.
The second one and the worst is that, their AD filter does not work. When we create a link using linkbucks, they ask whether or not adult content is to be shown in the ads that appear in the thin top banner. Even if I enter 'no', the ads still displayed profane and porn content. I didn't find it until one day I clicked my own link. I was shocked to see the adult ads which affected the reputation of my web content. Thereafter, I never used linkbucks and deleted all existing links. Since it was only the beginning, fortunately I didn't lose much traffic. I don't know whether they have sorted out this now, but I don't want to take risk once more. I would not recommend linkbucks. There are many other alternates.
But, it is true that they make payments regularly. In that case, they are fully reliable. I have heard words from my friends that they received payment from linkbucks.

Not for everyone
It's a good service but if you have a blog or place that isn't popular or have a hard time promoting your links, you won't make a lot of money, it's all about promoting and get your site out there! But I would recommend it to someone who isn't new to blogging or site management.
My personal experience with this wasn't all that great because I am a bit inexperienced and my blog is fairly new but I am confident once I get better everything will be running smoothly.
Overall my payout has been 20 but that's after two months, those results aren't typical.

One of Many
For the past few months I have spent as much time as possible online, trying to make a few bucks. I have experienced sites that went from this is too easy to be real, to outright scammers. This site falls somewhere in the middle. I never got the feeling it was a scam, and I was paid, but the effort required would have been much better spent doing something else. The payout is just too low to be worth the time required. As others have already commented, a very large/popular site might generate reasonable revenue with this, but if your site is on that level, you probably have better advertising options available.

Not Very Good But It Works
I tried this site out. It was pretty hard for making money since not many people went on these links. The ads were not that distracting but their were some that just made me really mad and I couldn't even close it or go to my destination. I would give this site an overall C since it works and I got paid $10.
This is how it works, you make the links, and send it to people and if they go on it and do the ads they will get paid. You may think it's easy but it's not that easy. You will need a lot of time to do this so that’s why I gave this site a C.

Eh... its ok
Linkbucks is okay in my opinion but it requires time and patience. I tried linkbucks for awhile and it takes a long time to get some decent money. I posted my links everywhere I could think of and in the end made a few dollars. I don't think linkbucks is worth it since it takes forever to get some money, but if your one of those really calm and patient people I guess it could work out for you. Linkbucks would probably work out if you have a lot of traffic on your website but don't expect to earn a great amount of money. Linkbucks isn't for everyone, but it can earn you some cash if you could wait long enough.

LinkBucks - Underwearcash
The reason I gave LinkBucks a Pretty Good rating because the amount of money that you earn from LinkBuck is not a lot. Therefore, it required a lot of time and effort to even earn one dollar.
The problem about LinkBuck is that it is very difficult to get people to click on your links because most people already know that I am making money from people clicking on my links. I've been using tricks to make people click, but that is not always the best way due to the lack of resources I have.
Furthermore, I can't put LinkBuck links anywhere in forums because they don't allow them anymore, so right now the ways to utilize the LinkBuck links are very limited.
Anyways, this site is still some ways to earn pocket change if you get bored of sitting in front of your computer doing nothing and you'll like to do some LinkBuck job to get some money to add to your paypal account.
My total amount I earned from LinkBuck is $4, so it is not too much compared to other sites I do online.
Great way to add to your online money making list. Very trusted site.

LinkBucks service sucks
It took me 4 weeks to reach the minimum payout of $5. I had to sit in front of my computer all day, pasting LinkBucks links to forums, chats rooms and inviting friends to visit my site and blogs, and yet, could not make any good money from this service. Compare to the money I made from other Ads, like Google Ads.
LinkBucks, it’s really waste of time and energy because you will receive a small amount of a cent for each link view from a unique viewer.
They paid me $5, but it took me 4 weeks to earn that. It pays, but demands hard work. It’s not an easy way to make money.
But, if you have a site with millions of customers visiting daily. It could earn you some good money, but with my experience, I will not recommend this service to anyone.

It does not comply with 20/80 rule
I always believe that as an IM-er one must follow the famous 80-20 rule, that is: for 20% of there should be an 80% revenue (in marketing terms). LinkBucks is exactly the opposite, if not even worse.
Now don't take me wrong, they are not spammy, or a scam in anyway. It is a decent and legitimate business, but executed in a very lame way. While a person with unlimited amount of time at hand would be able to make some money with this, for most of us who are looking for more effective ways to make money online, this is just a waste of time. In addition to that, Linkbucks system could seriously mess up your stats and traffic.
There are several points here that make Linkbucks a service to avoid:
1. It is very annoying for your clients, and they lose interest in returning to your site.
2. Since people are bored with waiting, they click away before you get a quality link (no one wants to wait 15sec just to be redirected, if they have a chance to click and terminate the waiting)
3. When you do get paid, it is a truly miserable amount.
4. It will take you high amounts of traffic, lots of time investment (to build links) and a great deal of patience to get a very modest amount of coin out of this. (in case you have this kind of patience, time and stamina, you'd be better off building backlinks to your own sites. )
I think their idea is good, but in order to make this truly attractive service for all, interesting and profitable, they'll need to remodel their way of thinking entirely.
Until that day, I'd do something with better ROI.

Linkbucks is just fine
I started using LinkBucks a month ago for linking MP3s on YouTube and download links on various forums. They make it really easy to add links, as well as customize the links you make (Single/Multiple Links, Full Page Scripts with various alias urls and ads).
Although they make it very easy to add links, for me, making a few penny's on LinkBucks is a good day. I started using LinkBucks at the end of December 2009, and now in almost a month I have only made about 40 cents. Linkbucks won't get you rich, but if you are linking to other moneymaking opportunities, it is just the icing on the cake.

Waste of Time
This is basically a full time job I think. I have spent hours after hours on here and have not earned anything. If you spent 8 hours a day everyday well then you might get somewhere. I advise you to save your time and not do this. I can't say I haven't got any unique clicks, because I have, but I still have not gotten paid or anything.

Never got anywhere with this one
I had signed up with LinkBucks hoping that I could generate some income just by people clicking on my links. However I quickly found out to generate any income from this site you must have A LOT of people to click on your links. The pennies I made just weren't worth my time or effort.

Not so good
Linkbucks is okay, but you would have to work really hard to make any money at all. It's okay if someone wanted to spend all their time on trying to get people to click links. It's for sure not a full time job. I have tried it, got several unique clicks and not even a cent in my account. Just save yourself some time and do not sign up.

Takes Time & Patience
LinkBucks is a 100% legit site if you were worried. It it really good for people who have a big blog or site. but it doesn't pay that much, like $1 for 1000 is way to much for me, but for some people who have massive blogs or sites that receives a lot of visitors than I tell you this will be a really good site for you, but for folks who don't have massive blogs or sites can use LinkBucks, but it will be quite boring and will take quite a while to earn money.

Ok Idea, Not Great Pay
The idea of linkbucks is great. I joined linkbucks just wanted to make some money to buy stuff off of other websites such as ebay. Linkbucks is not a scam. It works, but the thing about it is, it is very slow. But the amount of money you get is not worth it. I got half a cent from 27 clicks in a day. Honestly, how much money do you think you are going to make from earning half a cent each day. The idea is original, and could potentially be helpful for people who have websites with a large amount of users/viewers each day, but this site is not for the average person just trying to earn a little bit of money. It may also be very annoying to users to constantly have linkbucks pop-ups, banners, etc. , after every link they click. Linkbucks is a good idea, but the pay is not amazing, and it may come off as very annoying. C.

Very low pay per link click!
I've tried to use Linkbucks for months and I haven't even reached the minimum cash-out of $5. It probably is because my site doesn't have SUPER traffic, but it has a rather large amount of daily traffic. However, if you are committed to spending a lot of time, then it may be well work it. If you wish for a "get money quick" thing, then this is definitely not a right site for you. If you ever use it, I would advise people to not do pop-ups because many people have pop-up blockers which render it useless. Linkbucks is still a good way to add a bit into your income. It is easy to use because after you set your link, all you have to do is sit, relax, and watch the clicks roll in.

LinkBucks, not for me
When I first started with LinkBucks I was hoping to make a few dollars a day, but to my disappointment I only could a few cents after a week, so the only way to make big money from this program is to post a link buck link on every blog and article you have.
LinkBucks are good is you have a mountain of traffic or loads of blogs/articles but for me it is just a few dollars a month.
Personally I make more money from ads then with LinkBucks.

Didn't earn anything with them
I joined to linkbucks some months ago. And I did it for two reasons – first, I have seen many sites with mystical green line above them, where was name of linkbucks and I thought that it was something like ad with which people can make money. So I looked in linkbucks and their offer seamed interesting. I hoped to earn some extra cash like with google adsense. I checked their paying conditions and I thought that it could go. Also I searched for payment proofs and there was lot of them with big earning proofs. I added their link on two of my sites. But after three months I had zero in my linkbucks account. I was very disappointed. If on google ads I have about 5 clicks per day, in linkbucks I had nothing. Maybe my sites were using wrong people, or maybe their link doesn’t seem very attractive. I don’t know. But so I quit my work with them.

Not worth it
Linkbucks is not too bad, but you would have to work really hard to make any money at all. If you spend whole day behind a computer then you could actually make nice amount of money. It's for sure not a full time job. I have tried it, got several unique clicks and not even a cent in my account. Just save yourself some time and do not sign up.

I gave it a try but I don't think it is for me
I joined linkbucks by clicking on a banner I saw on Easyhits4u. I had no idea how to use the site but I quickly figured it out and began to post my links everywhere I could. I mainly used it for twitter to link to my website and my online articles. I found that when I attempted to use linkbucks to link to my Examiner articles it would not work. I think that some sites block sites like linkbucks. I ended up giving up on it. I hardly earned anything and I don't have anywhere near the amount of traffic I would need to profit from the site.

It works, but very hard to earn
The thing with linkbucks is that it actually works, and they will pay you if you get enough money together for cashout.
But the problem is that it's really hard to earn anything if you don't have a website that has super high traffic, and actually many people from western countries that will use your links.
I was on linkbucks for a few months with a website and a few blogs, but I just managed to cashout once. There were no problems with that and everything was working, but earning money takes just too much time.
I guess that I can only recommend this website to people that actually own a high traffic website and are looking for a way to earn some extra cash.

Low earnings, high cashout
I signed up in this site because of it is not the typical web page of PTC or GTP, it has a quite original idea and at first I thought that it could be a good way to earn some money. It didn't take me more than one week to discover that I was wrong, they pay you really little for each visit and the payout is very high compared with the earnings. I don't have a website with lots of traffic so I also made paid-links of other pages and try to show them to other people, but I failed. I worked a lot trying to do money in this site but I wasn't able to get a single dollar.
I'm sure that this site could be very useful for people which have a website with lots of visits a day, although for users like me it isn't.

Linkbucks is alright
Linkbucks is a good website. I have posted several links and got a lot of people going on them daily. I get paid through donations and through linkbucks. I really like how simple it is to get money, and how fast you get paid. What makes this website good is that it also counts the number of views, which I always need in order to see how many people go on daily or weekly.
Been with them for about 1 year and have had no problems so far.
If you plan on posting links to your blog or download then this website is just for you.
Only thing I don't like is when people view it you have to do skip ad most of the time, but the followers will have to deal with that.

Great, and wonderfull website
I first started using this website a few months ago. The design and layout instantly grabbed my attention, and kept me on the page, so I give props for that. Everything about it is just so sleek and nice. The links work fine, and the payout is good. I have made over $500 using this website, and I highly recommend it to everyone else who is interested in making some good money.

Totally worth it
Linkbucks is a totally legit website. The only thing is, it is hard to make cash with it unless you have a fairly high website traffic.
I have a website/forums with around 12,000 active members and I put linkbucks on to all external links, and I find my income is greatly increased by doing so, although I am about to stop because of the annoyance to my users, and some are complaining about it.
Overall, great to use if you have the website.

Legit, but hard to earn
Let me just start by saying LinkBucks will not make you any money whatsoever, unless you own a high-traffic website or something. I am an actual user on there, and as I have no websites of my own, putting linkbuck links in my signatures in forums was obviously not enough. Guess how much I made in 4 months? 045 cents. YAY! not. So if you are going to give linkbucks a try, make sure you have some kind of source of high traffic that will be clicking your links. Although this may seem like a bad review, that is not linkbuck's fault. They are a good, paying, non-scamming company. If you do manage to make the money, they WILL pay you.

Good service that actually pays
I have been using Linkbucks for almost a year and have created a means to generate at least $1 a day / $30 a month. There are other link-pay services, but Linkbucks offers a full-page script which allows you to monetize all your links at once. Works great on high traffic, niche blogs.

Good, but depends on your site
If you have a lot of visitors, LinkBucks is a great choice! It doesn't give a lot of money, but it's good as you don't have to move one finger (just to add it to your site) for earning money.
I've been using it for almost 1 year and earned about $200 with it. I would classify my site as a mid visited site, but I still can earn a good cash on it.
Considering that you do nothing and waste no time on it, it's such a great product. However, be aware that your visitors may think it's annoying, but just ignore them. They wouldn't change a site just due to one more click.

Good if you have traffic
I have joined this site about 3 months ago and so far made a bit over $50. Here is the key to make it work for you - you must have huge traffic going to the pages and that's a problem most of the people run into. Also the amount of money you get credited to your account depends on where your visitors are coming from. They have tiered commission system and most money made from USA, Canada and UK visitors. I have Ip counter on my website and I can just sit and constantly watch my counter stats and see how much traffic I am getting and as soon as visitor from US, CA or UK visits my site I get money into my linkbucks account.
If you are looking for a quick earner and just starting out building your website, this is not way to go, however if you are seasoned marketer and have decent traffic (20K-50K a day) you will make money quick. Also, unlike many PTR/PTC/Incentive websites out there, they do pay you as promised.

Potential to earn a lot
Linkbucks presents you with a really good way to potentially earn a lot of money.
However you need a very large amount of traffic. For the majority, including me, we don't have a whole load of traffic to use for linkbucks.
Apart from the one downside, that you need a lot of traffic, the site is very good and is quite well respected with it's users. Payment is reasonably quick and the user-interface on their website is set to a very high standard.
So I would definitely recommend Linkbucks, but only if you want to earn a few dollars for your effort... unless you have access to very high amounts of traffic.

Too Distracting
I tried this one a year ago and all it did was not only cause annoyance to my visitors, but I lost a lot of them because of all the ads I had on my site.
As for making money, yes it works but, it's just to slow for me. I've been to sites similar and they pay a little faster, at least their earning incentives were a little more. With Linkbucks it was not the case. I was skeptical about it and to tell you the truth I never made very much from it.
I have to wonder if those claiming this site makes them thousands of dollars are not just saying that to lure others in. I don't think even now Linkbucks can make one thousands of dollars, it did not do that for me.
All in all, perhaps patience is what is needed for this one, A LOT of patience. I personally did not like Linkbucks, it was too distracting for my site visitors and for me.
Good luck to those that do try it, perhaps it will work for you.

Good but hard to make a lot of cash
Link Bucks is a very good website. I get on it everyday and I make websites and manage the websites that I have already made and it is good. But there is a downside. It is very slow money. For example, you get 1 cent for every click you get on your websites. 1 CENT. That's it, so it is very slow money. But you get to make multiple websites and that brings you more money, or if you bring traffic, it will help a lot. And the payout is at $5, so you can't get paid until you reach $5. But it is a very good and easy way to make money even though it is very slow. But you should still check it out.

It's quite a good site
I've been using linkbucks for a while, it's pretty easy! I use on my blogs which people visit a lot! I do get a lot of people clicking and it is a few dollars extra to me.
I wouldn't suggest using it to make massive amounts of money, but it's free and can gain a few amounts. You can earn a lot if you get a lot of refs on the site, but that takes some time.
Overall great site and I am still using it today.

Good for small earnings
I joined LinkBucks one year ago. The site is really good for small earnings through blog URLs. I have used their top banner and intermission ads but the site pays more for pop up ads. But I avoided using pop ads in my blog since it can be annoying at times. I converted my blog URLs and article URLs into LinkBucks paid links and posted them into different social networking sites and forums. I did not earn much from the program as I was not that much active in spreading the links.
It is a little tough to get clicks on site URLs as people are rarely interested unless you have the payment proofs. So I converted all my payment proof links into LinkBucks paid links and the idea helped me get some clicks every day.

They Do What They Say, But It still Isnt Much!
I've been a member of linkbucks for a very long time. And I have always been paid on time, and never had a problem with their tech support or anything. The problem is the payout is so low. Even if you get thousands of clicks per day, your not going to be making much with them at all. It's not there fault, any kind of service like this is very low paying. Just hard to make any money. But If you still want to give paid links a try, you should really go with linkbucks. Nice site design and layout and stat tracking. They have also given out many random bonuses to increase your earnings *such as double payout weekends and such*.

Great program!
I use it for few months now and I am happy with it! No, you will not earn thousands of dollars in few days, but you will earn a little every time someone clicks on your link. What more do you want. People in general don't get anything from clicks on their normal links.
The whole concept was easy to understand and the support is ok. The special linkbucks code for your links is easy to get and to use.
And the usage of those links is limited only by your imagination. I spend a lot of time in front of my computer, online with my friends, and even links I send to them already went over linkbucks. That way I can make even more bucks.
I recommend this site to every patient person, but f you want fast money, linkbucks is not for you.

It's ok for what it does
Linkbucks certainly is the better one out of the get paid to post links crowd, but like the rest, makes you next to no money unless you spam up places. I appreciate them being revolutionary and I have been paid out by them (yes they're legit) and if anybody posts links on forums often then I'd check it out, but if not, this is not for you.
They have a very nice referral downline service, and I agree, it is the better out of the other linking websites. I would suggest checking them out if you are a good refferer who can garner active referrals.

Not a bad site!
I've been a member there for a few months, and with one link made 5 cents, definitely not a scam at all, quite a solid site.
Bad thing is my blog has a lot of traffic from other countries and they don't pay as well as US traffic does.
Overall it's a clean and easy to use site that can earn you quite a good chunk of change if you really work at it.

Way Too Hard To Earn Cash
I have been with linkbucks since the very beginning. It is definitely not a scam, but it is very hard to earn money with. They give you very small amounts of money per link view, so it is very hard to reach the minimum payout of 5 dollars. If you're trying to make a lot of money online then this is not the site that you should be going to unless you have a lot of traffic to your website, earning money with linkbux.com would be very hard. In my experience I've only earned about 2 cents using the site and it is advertised a lot, but I think it is overrated. Personally I think that you should find somewhere else online to make money.
Overall linkbucks is a trustworthy site, but it is too hard to earn money with and make a profit.

Only good for some type of websites
I discovered LinkBucks a few months ago, when someone told me people can make about 5 dollars a day using this site. That is why I have modified files on my blogs and article sites with LinkBucks links. But the results are not very exciting so far. After monitoring traffic statistics on my web pages, I have found out that many clicks did not convert to LinkBucks-effective-clicks, because some people simply close windows before 15 seconds (advertisement time frame).
However, one of my friends have managed obtain a good profit using LinkBucks' service. His approach is use LinkBucks for file download links, such as ebooks, music and video clips. Over all, LinkBucks is a good site, if you figure out a way to fit your web site.

Easy but slow money
I made money with linkbucks easy but slow on my blog. My visitors clicks my links, I made money and their ads are not annoying. They have an active forum where you can find many ways to make money. I wont get rich off Linkbucks, but it's nice to get some money this way. Your site doesn't need any requirements so every website can join the network. Having referrals has helped me to get some money, but I don't like that their direct referral earnings are only 10% and the next levels only 5% and 1%. My direct referrals don't get referrals so I'm not getting that much money from referrals. I always received my payments very fast. I recommend this site to everyone who has a website or blog with many links on it, to get some extra money each month.

Its not perfect but
It’s not the perfect way to make money, but it's quite a fun way to be honest. You hardly make any money the first days, but as you see your capital and referrals growing you are starting to enjoy yourself.
Its lvl-3 referral system is great without a doubt, in the 6 months I am using it I made some reasonable profit compared with the time I invested in it.
However their payout is on the slow side, I always had to wait 4-7 days to get my payout which is quit frustrating, I’ll give Link bucks a C because it's not the great way to make money, but it is a way and it's fun like I said.

Pretty Pleased With It
I been using LinkBucks for about a year now, and so far I am pretty pleased with it.
I have pretty good traffic on my site and my blogs. As a result, I can earn decent amount of money from LinkBucks. I really like the fact that it doesn't require a lot of my time. It is so simple and easy to use. All I have to do is post the link from LinkBucks on my daily post and every time someone clicks it, I get paid. Moreover, the pay out is very low and they paid me a few times already.
However, LinksBuck pays at a really low rate. It requires a great amount of traffic to earn a decent amount of money.
In conclusion, I give LinkBucks a C. I would recommend this.

Time Consuming
Overall LinkBucks is a very unique and interesting website. They have very good support and their forums are filled with a lot of information on how to earn through the use of LinkBucks. But overall the amount of effort one must put in if they want to earn is simply not worth it. You would be better off spending your time elsewhere if you really want to earn money from the web.
If you are a person who owns a blog of some sort or a website, then by all means try out LinkBucks and see what happens. But if you are just the average person online looking for some income from online, then your time is better spent somewhere else.

LinkBucks+Traffic=$
Link bucks is one of the most profitable sites out there that have to do with getting paid for people to click links. I can earn up to 50 bucks a month, and all I did was create some links. Does that sound time consuming? No. Hard. ? No. The best bit is if you can format the type of ads you want and how they come up. It also is great if you link to a lot of sites, maybe sharing software, creating blogs or even just tutorials on random stuff, the possibilities are endless. If you are looking for a way to make money, got links that a lot of people click on, then I suggest you register to LinkBucks ASAP.
All in all this site is great for making money and is user friendly.

Easy money
Linkbucks is one of my favorite methods of earning extra cash. I've been using linkbucks for a few years now. Every time when I have a file to upload I transform the link into linkbucks link and I've been really enjoying it and I still enjoy earning money by just sharing the files I want to. It helped me to earn some great money. I can assure you it's worth a try. If you're using a paying uploading site in combination with linkbucks = money in the bank. It paid me many times and I am more than satisfied with the site. I highly recommend it to everybody.

It is great
I think Linkbucks is a really good site. I use it everyday. Every time I send an e-mail with links I always cloak it with Linkbucks and make some money. I’ve found that if you work hard with this site and spreading links without spamming you can get some very decent profit. Linkbucks has a 3 level deep referral system which also very helpful for your further earnings. All you need to do is talk to a couple of your friends and explain to them how good this site is and they start working. All of the money they earned quickly added to me. I must say that Linkbucks is a really good and legit site. If you join it you will earn a lot of money, but you must work hard with their system. I truly recommend it to everyone!

Do not even bother
Here is my story.. A month ago I heard about this so called "big money maker" web-site. I was interested (who wouldn't) so I decided to google it and see what happens. I read a lot of great comments so I decided to try it. Well, things did not work quite well for me.. I started promoting my link immediately and I was getting quite a lot of clicks per day, but.. I was getting almost no money.. So if you are looking for a web-site from which you will really gain some money - this is not for you. I am sorry to say so, but it is true.

Just Not Worth The Time
Ok, I guess I can rate this site now that I am 5 months and only ten dollars into it. I am basically tired of logging in and clicking advertisements everyday for pennies. I really don’t care for the PTC sites, but this is one of the better ones if you like that sort of thing. One thing I can say for this site is that they didn’t hype it up to appear more profitable than it is. That bad part is, the money doesn’t equal the time you have to put into it to really get a payout worthy of the work.

Pretty good for what it is
The service itself works just fine. I've had no problems with payouts, support, and so on.
However, don't expect to make much money from this. I didn't make that much. I could have potentially made more if I'd posted more links in more places (naturally), but there's not that big a payoff for the effort involved. I gave it up in favor of more profitable methods of making money fairly quickly.
For someone looking for a program like this, LinkBucks is a perfectly good choice, though. Just don't expect it to turn into a real money maker, or try to make a real business out of it.

Linkbucks is good for veterans!
I feel like Linkbucks is only doing good for traffic-gurus and those who have been into Internet Marketing quite long. You can't make much money there with no knowledge at all. If you have a high-traffic forum Linkbucks is just great for you. Another thing about Linkbucks, I personally like is the Forum, it's a great place to advertise and the mods are very friendly. Another good thing is the referral system, because you have 3 Tiers you earn money from. All together Linkbucks is a C for me. Perfect for those who know how to get traffic, but bad for beginners.

Really Good Site
LinkBucks is a legit and paying sight. I got my payment many times. This enables everybody to earn some extra cash every month. Using LinkBucks is a very easy task. You have to put the link to the LinkBucks what you want to share with others and then LinkBucks will generate you a small link of the original link. With the help of that link you can earn money by nothing but sharing.
I have my own website with a huge number of traffic everyday. Before using LinkBucks I only could earn from Google Ad-sense. After joining LinkBucks I can earn a good amount of money every month by doing nothing.
If you have a blog or website then you can earn a good amount of money with LinkBucks. Suppose you have 10,000 regular member in your blog. You update your blog everyday. Then if the 10,000 member will click on Link then you can earn 10$ per update. That's so simple like one-two-three.
From my sight, LinkBucks is a very good paying site and you can earn money everyday with LinkBucks. This is a grade A service from my sight.

Nothing special, but worth a try
LinkBucks is one of the sites which allow you to transform your links into shorter ones. I am not a big fan of these, but noticing the profit option on this one, I decided to join it. I have converted over 30 of my main links to the shorter ones with LinkBucks and added them to my signature on some forums. Then I watched the results for two weeks. Honestly it wasn’t as good as I thought it would be. I mean several people complained that the ads are very annoying and a bit time consuming. They claimed the regular links to be much more pleasant than these. Talking of profits, I was barely able to make $2 over that period of time, which is still kind of “Free money”, as I did close to nothing to receive that, but it’s still a very small profit for that period of time.

This won't get you a lot of money
Well I heard of people making big money using that but it didn't work quite well for me. I started using Linkbucks about three months ago. The idea behind Linkbucks is that you get paid when somebody clicks on your link. It sounded pretty easy after all people click lots of links every day. But it wasn't that easy as I first thought it would be. During these three months of using this site I only earned 50 cents. So if you expect to make a lot of money in no time, then this site is not for you.

Very great to earn some cash
I am still using linkbucks, and I am very happy I am still using that little piece of code. It is interesting for those who want to gain profit when referring to other ones websites / blogs / videos / .... In the last 3 months I earned about 20 bucks, just for only showing my visitors a little ad before they will follow the chosen link.
I've never heard any bad comments from my customers about the little advertisements they receive. No comments = mostly good comments! So that is again a reason more to try it out!
I really recommend this to any marketer, blogger, ... to gain a little profit. Don't expect to get instantly rich, but all small things help!

Wasn't the best choice for me
It was more than three months ago when I discovered LinkBucks. I thought LinkBucks to be a good way of monetizing my blog but the results I achieved actually weren't quite good. I have heard of other people actually making a profit from the site, but this may be because their blogs are quite popular and the platform is more orientated to those people. In order to be successful with LinkBucks you will have to put a lot of ads in your blog which will make it quite bad looking and in my opinion there will be a traffic decrease and loss of potential profits. I have to also say that the advertisements you get are not very good looking and can be quite frustrating some times. Those ads may bring you profit but the more valuable thing - the users themselves may actually be driven away. You need to give the advertisements 15 seconds at least which definitely is quite a lot in my opinion. For me this definitely is not the best opportunity to earn some extra bucks since it is too much time demanding and it requires you to be quite active. For the time I have used LinkBucks' service, I was able to make no more than 20-25 dollars which for me is not a satisfying result. It is good that the site is at least paying and the service is at a good level. As a conclusion I would say that for me the product was a time waste and it wasn't worth it.

Easy way to earn small cash online
I have been using Linkbucks for quite sometime now. I think it is good for those who want to earn small $$ in easy way. I have been uploading and sharing many files in various forums and sites, and I usually used linkbucks for that purpose. But to say frankly, it is quite slow and if you want to earn some fast cash online, look for other options. It is good only for those people who want to earn extra money by doing their usual online business at the same time.

Linkbucks Review
Using Link bucks was pretty very efficient, but it did indeed provide a constant and slow payroll. I would recommend it to people who are patient users. I received about $5 at the end of the month after using Link bucks on a thirty to sixty minute basis. Overall, I recommend this service.

Consistent but little profit
If you're looking for this to be a hefty source of income, then turn away now. If you're just looking for a few extra bucks to spend after each month, then you're in the right place. Linking to my websites and blogs with Linkbucks provided me with a steady but small trickle of income, and I made around $15-$20 a month. Despite the low profits, it certainly is a nice cherry on top to any money you're already making, and I would certainly recommend it to anyone who finds themselves in such a situation.

Can you say Awesome?!
This site is a great way to win prizes by answering surveys, questions, and games. All my friends did it, and would come to school begging each other to click on their referral. The more referrals, the more link bucks. There are loads of prizes you can claim from ipod headphones, to a ps3! Winning prizes couldn't have gotten easier. The only one downside is that there aren't enough prizes in stock to go around. Once ps3's come in stock, I can almost assure you it will be gone very soon because of it's popularity. This goes to show you what a great site link bucks is! My friend ordered a T- shirt from the site to make sure it was legit. Sure enough it was! About a week later he received his T- shirt. Think it's a scam? I don't!

Linkbucks is really good
I have my Own Forum with about 30 Registered users, every day I get about 1-4 more users. I made Dark Orbit Bot in SCAR which any of my registered users may download. Now the Download link is a Linkbucks link so every time they download my Bot I get some cash. Again, if I update my Bot they have to re-download my Bot, which is of course connected to Linkbucks. So if I would have 1,000 registered user on my Forum, and I make an update they have to download it to be able to use the new features that I add therefore I get some cash thanks to Linkbucks.
At the moment I am only making around 0.5-1.5 cents per update but once I will have around 1,000 registered users I will be getting around $1 per update. I usually update 1-4 times a week, so I could be making around $16 per Month, just with Linkbucks alone, which can get me back the Money for the Server Costs.
You can make a lot of Money with this! You just have to be creative. You can also set up your Forum/Website with Linkbucks so that if anyone posts a Link, it will automatically be converted into a Linkbucks link, which will get you cash even though you didn't even post it yourself!
My experience with Link-Bucks is very Positive, in the few Months that I have been using Link-Bucks, it wasn't even once offline!
The Linkbucks Forum is really slow because the are around 3,000 users there at any time. Overall Linkbucks is easy to use and very good for anyone who has a Forum/Website.
I have rated a B, I would've rate an A if the Forum wouldn't be so slow.

A great website for a movie blogs
I've used this service for my movie reviews blog and it turns out to be pretty good. By converting the link of the movie trailer and IMDB information in my movie reviews, I've received extra incomes without having to add more contents to my blog.
This is a good way to earn more money, but it won't be as much good as the earning from your AdSense blog income.

Make Money When People Leave your Website
I've used many sites similar to this where you earn a certain amount of money depending on how many hits your link receives, but some of them are scams and you do not earn anything. This site on the other hand will pay you with PayPal or ePassporte with a $5 minimum cash out. The only issue I had with this website is the time it takes to earn enough to cash out if you do not have a lot of hits to your sites on a regular bases. For all of you who get tons of hits I recommend this, it's the only place where you "Make Money When People Leave your Website. "

LinkBucks won't make you as much as you'd think
Unless you're getting a monstrous amount of hits (and at that point I think you'd be making enough money to not even want to bother with LinkBucks) you're not going to be seeing a lot of cash from this site. The idea is cool, the site looks great, and you really think it's a good way to make some extra pocket change. That is, until you sign up and realize that all you're making is pocket change (fractions of a penny per click). It's not a bad way to make money, especially if you get quite a few hits on your blog or website, but there are more optimal ways to make quick cash than this passive penny earner.

Simply brilliant. Wish I had thought of the idea first
Linkbucks is a wonderful idea, I've made $35 within the last month just posting my links on forums. They are trustworthy and a great way to make a little cash when you have a lot of people clicking your links. It's free and everyone likes to make money with absolutely no effort.

Legit but bad!
Linkbucks is totally cool because they will pay you with real money and everything, but I signed up like about 3 months ago looking to make money and I made some traffic on Facebook and other sites but I hardly got any visitors! Then I posted some ads and I got about ten times the traffic, but barely any money. I put about 20 ads and only made 2 dollars! I would never recommend Linkbucks to a friend. It is legit but worthless.

Too much work for a few dollars
This is a legitimate site. They actually pay. The only problem with this site, linkbucks, it takes a lot of effort to win something with it. LinkBucks pays you based on the amount of clicks and people have to wait 15 seconds before they reach the link to download. I think this site is good only for people who do a lot of uploads, and have a lot of downloads from them, otherwise it's not really profitable, it takes forever to really earn some money.
In my opinion isn't worth the time I spend on it, you can get a lot of good feedback about this site on the internet, with payment proofs included.

Very useful website
I have worked with linkbucks for 10 months. It is a great website. I have made over $100 with it. I have bean paid on time. Their support center is best. They answer very fast. Their minimum payout is very low, it is $5. Linkbucks is really easy to use. All you have to do is put a code on your site. You will get paid $2 per 2000 Views. This site is also great for those who own download sites or forums. The registration process is very easy and they don't ask any personal information. So I recommend this website to you.

A lot of site traffic
This is a very nice service, but to make a decent amount of money, you would at least have to have 10,000 hits a day to your site and have at least half of them click the link. I used this for my blog once, and my blog got about 200 hits a day, so about 100 of them would click on my links and I would get, a bit of money, not a lot but overall, a good service if you want to earn some extra pocket cash.

Link Bucks
I have tried links before and earned around 30 dollars from the site. I did it by transferring my links into different ones, and posted them on active forums. I made about 50 cents a day from it, and it's really not that hard. The hardest part for me was finding that active forum to post on. It's an easy way to make a few bucks, and I would recommend this site to anyone who is on the forums a lot and are in need of a few bucks. I rated this site an A+ because it pays out on time, and it's really easy to use.

Just another earning money program
My experience with LinkBucks has not been good, I signed up thinking I'd be getting lots of links which I would direct people to. But it turns out that everybody that clicks on the link wouldn't like to follow the advert. Each time I log into my account I would still be seeing $0.
The site is good for those who post links a lot, but it's not my idea of making quick bucks off the internet. I wouldn't recommend the site to anyone who is looking to earn quick cash online.

Patience is necessary
If you want to be successful on this site, you have to know what you're doing and have patience. A bunch of friends or referrals don't hurt either. I'm not as lucky in that part. If you don't have either of these, it will take you a while to receive payment. This site is not for people who want to make money instantly, but I wouldn't exempt those who really want to try or those who have nothing better to do because the site is really not that difficult to understand. Also, it would be helpful to have your own website. Not only will you have more views on your website, you will get paid in the process. My only real complaint is that I made some $ but not enough due to few people I know online.

Absolutely Useless
So after I had signed up for this, I went onwards to start advertising this link they give. Utterly slow and takes forever to get credited, you rather just go to some offer paying or surveying sites and earn faster than this. Even if you went away from the computer over the night, the speed of getting the money is just slow. 02$ per person that clicks on it, now that is a lot of clicks, getting one dollar is absolutely slow. I can compare this to picking up money on the floor, you'd find more on the floor than to wait to be credited from this.

Pretty hard to earn for me
This site is pretty good to earn money, but hard to earn. In my experiences, I joined Linkbucks and did not make any cashout because no one is clicking on my links. You need a lot of friends to click on your links to earn. The positive thing on this site is if you have a blog, you can put your Linkbucks link there, so if people visits your blog, they maybe click on your link. Put something on your blog like, "click on the link, help me earn money!". If your lucky, you will have 5 to 20 clicks per day. In my rating, its 2.9 over 5.

Very slow to earn cash
Links Bucks is definitely legitimate. They actually pay so that is important. The problem with linkbucks was that it's payout was very low per clicks and to actually cash out and withdraw your money was impossible for me. LinkBucks pays you based on the amount of clicks. Persons have to wait 15 seconds which is a turn off for some. I didn’t have many visitors so I had less than 35 clicks per day. It was not really profitable for me because it’s extremely slow to really earn money. IF you have an established webpage that gets lots of visits, then you can patiently wait to get paid.

Just amazing!
I have earned about $50 from LinkBucks already. I put my links on different active forums and watch the cash flowing in. Maybe the hardest part will be the finding of active place to plant the links. I suggest putting links to many different forums. LinkBucks have always paid all my earnings to me. It's very good source of cash as you don't have to do anything else but create links and put them to few different forums. It's easy when you get the hang of it. I recommend LinkBucks to everyone who wants to earn easy and legit cash on the Internet.

Great opportunity for larger websites
This website is great for me as I have a large website with lots of links. I would not recommend if you are just going to be linking to small communities or friends. It has completely gotten rid of my need for advertisements on my website and instead I just use link bucks. My customers don't mind it as they don't have to look at advertisements which also draw their attention AWAY from my products on my website which is great for me.
I rated this an A due to the constant flow of cash from them to me and it being able to allow me to remove advertisements from my site.

Very hard to earn a buck!
Once I tried linkbucks and it truly is lame. You need thousands of clicks to earn 1$. I excepted that it's like 0,5 cent per click, but it's really like 0,001c per click. I earned like 4c for using it for a week. I found it very useless. But if you are using all kinds of forums, linking everyone to everywhere, Linkbucks is your choice.

Not recommended
Since I own more than 7 websites I wanted to advertise and I heard from someone that you will actually get paid by using this service. I was pretty much excited that I can get paid at the same time my websites will get the exposure. Well anyways, I signed up and I was provided with a unique link that I can modify myself and place my website link or my affiliate link. The concept is very good, but when it comes to reality that is what the website visitors really hate. Whenever someone clicks they have to wait for the specified time (3to 15 sec) which can be really annoying and frustrating for the visitors. This can break the deal. This is what happened to me. My visitor’s ratio dropped from 9 % to 6% in less than 2 weeks after using this. Though you can earn more but they are negligible when compared to losing your potential visitors. Not recommend from my side.

Pretty good
I discovered LinkBucks a while ago. This site is amazing to use if you own your website, since you can make it redirect you to a linkbucks(15 second waiting page) every time someone clicks a link. This has yielded me a little over $300USD, and I'm also very glad to be a part of a very friendly staff and community at LinkBucks. I will continue to use them for months to come. Not to mention, they have an awesome referral system, where you also get paid simply for referring people.

Not so great for small-timers
Linkbucks is a great site to earn money on by redirecting users through your linkbucks links. The only problem is that if you don't heavily spread them or if you don't really get much traffic through your links, it will take you FOREVER to earn enough money to "cash out" or "withdraw". I suppose if my website was larger and had more visitors I could better use the Linkbucks service, but as of right now it's not worth it as I only get about 50~ clicks a day. I've tried various things to help "boost" the clicks but it hasn't helped. If you have a fairly large website with a good number of visitors I'm sure you could do much better than I do. All in all, this is a nice service IF you get can the clicks to make it worth it.

Low profits
Linkbucks is only good if you have a lot of outbound links or content that your visitors will wait the 15 seconds if it means getting the content. The amount per click is low. It is very hard for a new website to earn money; it is more for established websites. To earn a substantial amount of money, it takes a lot of effort and time. There are better sites out there for making money. Link bucks is a legitimate site, they will pay the money. In conclusion, for casual users who do not have an established website/blog, it is not worth the time.

Not that great if you don't know where to start
The good news is LinkBuck's a great way to make money from turning your links into linkbucks. The bad news is that you have to spread your linkbucks around the websites on internet. If you have a high traffic website, around 10k a day, you could make a lot of money each day depending on what country they're from. So I don't have a high traffic website, what I did was spread the links around and I have no luck getting hits to my link bucks. Even though I have over 1000 clicks, I have 11c just for that. So I don't like LinkBucks at all.

Pretty darn good site
I started using Linkbucks a few weeks ago, so far I have been earning a few dollars a day by posting links on my forum. The great thing about linkbucks is that they have different kinds of scripts and ads which makes it more user friendly. I did a survey on my forum asking if people would mind have linkbucks links on the forum and they did not. I ended up using a script that converts all links on the forum to linkbucks and you can choose from intermission ads or banner ads or no ads which you still earn from. To say the least when I 1st started it I only earned a few cents a day but the money you earn increases over time. I realized to earn with it I would have to put my own hard work in. Although linkbucks is good it doesn't do advertising for you so it was a challenge to get clicks on it, but eventually I got the hang of it. Over all I like linkbucks and personally it benefits me and I would say it's one of the best ad sites I have ever used.

I use this on my blog
I personally use this on my own blog. They make it easy to install a script into your site/blog whatever you may own. You can easily make cash with this site. I make about $30 bucks a month with them, depending on the amount of clicks my links get on my blog gets. I have always been paid with them to my PayPal account. Although it has been taking a bit longer than usual to get paid lately, but I did get paid yesterday. Can't get much easier than this.

Linkbucks is a overall positive website
I'd say linkbucks is a pretty good site if you are busy, it's a pretty simple way to gain cash on the go. Even when your away you would make cash from linkbucks. So far I have to say I made around $50 from linkbucks. Linkbucks is a hard starter at first but comes around easy going to make money. The only problem I disliked about linkbucks is how when they check for your website traffic, they have to put on an ad or a pop up. Things like these can scare away your members.

Good program, low profits
I've tried using this until it really turned out to be too much effort without appropriate results. It's all very user friendly and easy to get in to. But without a great website with many Unique Visitors or something like that you won't come far with this. It's just too difficult and almost impossible to make money with it by posting on forums or whatever else for example.

Not The Most Profitable Site
I have been using this site for about half a year now and I must say it isn't easy making money with this site. For the amount of time I have been using linkbucks I have only made around $20 which isn't bad, but in the amount of time it kind of is. I would recommend this site if you were trying to mask your link or if a link you have on youtube or something gets a lot of views. This site does payout, it's just not enough to make hundreds a month. Overall I like this site and I do suggest anyone to use it, just don't expect a lot of money.

Legit but not very profitable
I found this site a long time ago and I have to say it didn't work for me so good. But it's good for those who have a lot of friends or popular websites and blogs. There's much difference between LinkBucks and other programs similar to it. If you want to make a lot of money, maybe it's not very profitable, but for some extra bucks it's good. You have to earn at least $5 I think and they'll pay you with Paypal.
Finally, LinkBucks is not recommended for those of you, wishing to make a lot of quick and easy cash and which don't have prosperous site or blog.

Standard Service
My overall opinion of Linkbucks is that it is a good way to make money for sites that offer a huge amount of downloads. This is because the amount of money you earn per click on a LinkBucks link is very low and it took me a few months just to reach the minimum payout. On the other hand, if you have loads of external links, LinkBucks could be a viable way for your site/business/forums to make money. If you are the owner of an average site like me, then don't be afraid to put linkbucks links on your site, but be prepared to wait a long time to receive even a decent amount of money.

You just gotta be smart using it
I started using linkbucks months ago, referred by a friend. I tried it on forums spreading linkbucks links with intermission option, since it pays the most. But well gotta be honest, you have to have literally tens of thousands of clicks just to get like $5.
What I was doing was I posted a thread that is eye catching and put the links there ( like 'read more' ), so more chances people will click on the links. I duplicated this method to more forums, but still I didn't see the bucks coming in ( I mean the REAL bucks, not just cents ).
I better put my effort to other moneymaking schemes, maybe some guy can make a smarter way around to make $100/month like stated in it's official forum. But linkbucks is just not for me.

I've done well with Linkbucks
I discovered linkbucks.com about a year and a half ago. I have since withdrawn $586.96 as of the time I am writing this. I know a number of people have made much more. It is good for about $5 USD or so a day if you keep on top of it. It is also not very hard to use. I would definitely recommend this site to people... and I do! The site itself is well designed. They have always paid me, some times instantly when I make a request. I would say that Linkbucks is the best paid-to-link site on the net 100%.

Innovative but hard to earn
This service is innovative but is really hard to earn, at least for me. I converted 80% of my links, I have posted and posted them in forums, blogs and what not, but in a little over two months I made only $0.5. It is easy to earn with the full page ads with the counter, but you easily can get banned from forums cause of that and the top banner ads are paid very little. You can get much more money for creating your site and putting up cpm banners.

Nothing special, really
This site has an interesting idea, but I think it’s pretty hard to make any good money here. I did try it for fun with some of my links to see how fast the money can be generated here. The result was a bit disappointing. Several cents for almost a week of trying (not like I expected much more, but still). All this site does is give you shorter links for your sites, in exchange for forcing your customers/whoever clicks the link to watch ads in the process. That is annoying, and on most forums you can create the “clickable” links with any desired text on the link anyway. So I won’t advise betting too much of your time in here…

Good but takes time!
Personally, I like LinkBucks. I say this because when I first went on this site I thought that all this was fake and was a scam. So I decided to give it a try. I registered for free which was quick and easy to do. You can get paid via Paypal or ePassporte. You have to fill this in while you are registering. You can make a large amount of money with LinkBucks, however the downside of this is that from my experience it takes ages to do. You have to go on LinkBucks and upload everyday for you to make any amount of money. You will start off with only maybe $1 or $2. If you get the hang on LinkBucks you can start earning some serious money. All you have to do is post your LinkBucks links on a variety of forums. Another downside is that people just press "skip this ad" which will not earn you anything at all. Overall, if you want to make an extra bit of money, I would recommend this.

Won't make you rich
Honestly link bucks is not worth your time, in theory it all sounds good but with them you will most likely never earn any decent money. Their pay rate is just too low. It can be so low that you will need 100 clicks for a single cent.
Link bucks is popular only because it's newbie friendly and easy to start with.
Link bucks also has an easy to set up blog service using Wordpress, which is the highlight of their services. You get a domain name and free hosting on their servers just by signing up.

Well it took a while
Link bucks is one of those sites where you think you can make a lot of money really fast and then grow your earnings out. However from my experience I found link bucks to be slow and difficult to make massive amounts of money.
The one thing I found with link bucks is that if you use it regularly to mask your links you can make a decent sum of money. What new users need to remember is that you can't give up or all your time will have been wasted.
The secret to it is to get your links advertised well. Plus something that will increase your money earned tenfold is your referrals. Referring people will make sure that you can put in less effort and make more money. I found with my experience that if you refer enough people you can actually stop posting your links and still make a tidy sum at the end of the day.

Not as expected
When I signed up at linkbucks I knew I wouldn't be able to get a lot of money, but I told myself a buck or two per day was not bad. But even that was way too exaggerated, they say you get 1$ per 2000 users, but that's only for CA, USA and UK users, others make you gain even less!
This site is a real joke, they must be getting a lot of money with their ads while we scratch the cents from it, I personally think you can make more cash by going outside and taking the money on the floor.

Good but need hard work !
I started using link bucks a while ago and found it a little useful & easy to use. Their earning system is pretty slow. I don't appreciate the time for redirecting. People don't wait for redirecting so you can miss a lot of visitors. It requires a large amount of time.
It can be hard to make money. However, once you incorporate their links into your site, the money starts rolling in..
The help forum is nice and you can get the needed support for your questions and needs. So if you are a webmaster or a blogger I think in some way it will be useful for you.

Great site but takes to long to get money in comparison to other sites
Link-bucks is one of your average money making websites, and while it is great for freebies, it's definably not wonderful. You do get money and you do get paid in a reasonable amount of time, but it takes longer to accumulate the same amount of money then I've had from other websites like it. So I do recommend you check it out, but there are better ones out there.

Time Consuming
For a beginner like me, I think it doesn’t merit me. It’s really very tough to earn.
I just found myself wasting my time and effort just to earn a few cents. Imagine that people must click a link like 2000 times for me to gain $1? And not to mention it is not user friendly especially for the beginners. It is only my own opinion and observation and it's still up to you if you want to join. For a wrap up, LinkBucks is not a good online earning and they will pay you too low for all the effort you extended.

Legit But Requires Hard Work and Effort
I have used Linkbucks for about three months in total and have earned about $2.50. This took countless hours spreading my link across the net. I know most people would say this is a waste, but know this hard work and sacrifice make for a large reward in the end. Trust me this site is worth checking out.

More for the advanced user
LinkBucks is not a scam, you can definitely make money from this site but it's not the easiest way to make money on the Internet.
I trialed Linkbucks a few months back and found that for me to make a decent amount of money I had to generate a hell of a lot of traffic to my website, which wasn't all that easy as I was just starting out.
I work a full-time shift job, I didn't have the time or energy to continue with it as it takes time to generate money, but if you are unemployed or working casually then give it a go for sure, but it's for the more advanced in my opinion.
I definitely made money from it, so this is a legit site for sure, but my time and effort was not worth the money generated.
Not for the beginner.

Not For A Beginner
Linkbucks is absolutely a legit site. But it is very hard to earn money. The amount of cash made over a month was insignificant. LinkBucks might not be a appropriate for a beginner. This would very likely work for people who have a lot of traffic directed to their websites and who are very experienced in blogging. Though the site is legit, but it took me times to accumulate the earnings. All in all, it's worth trying if you have time, patience and a lot of sites you can post your links on.

Not the HIghest Paying Service, but one of the Most Recognized
Linkbucks is a unique program in where you get paid when people click on your links. It has been established since 2005 and is the most recognizable name in the business. In terms of "How much money can I make with Linkbucks" The answer is as follows:
If you have a lot of traffic for your links or website and have a decent number of referrals (people who join under you) then Linkbucks can earn you a substantial "passive" income. However, if you only wish to share a link here and there and don't even have a website, blog, forum, etc, then you will probably never even earn a dollar, and that would be a total waste of time.
While Linkbucks, overall, has been the most popular and best name in the industry, I feel like it is starting to fade a little. While their payout is lower than it's up and coming competitors, it's service is also starting to slowly become worse and worse. First it started with slow response from Support. Now, Payments are getting increasingly delayed, which is unfortunate because timely payments and frequent payments used to be the trademark of Linkbucks.
All in all, if you have good traffic and a good strategy then linkbucks may be for you, however, I would take a good hard look at some of the competitors before you decide to join Linkbucks

Linkbucks Has a Great Referral System!
In my opinion, Linkbucks is a very good site. I use it for my everyday uses. Whenever I send e-mails to others and need to send links with them, I always cloak it with Linkbucks just to earn an extra amount of money. It is great to earn an extra amount of income just by hiding your links with Linkbucks! I have found that by working hard with this site and spreading links without spamming can earn you a great amount. Linkbucks also has a 3 level deep referral system which also helped me out with my earnings. All I did was refer a couple of my friends and they got to work. I quickly found out that my referrals got referrals and so did their referrals. All of the money they earned quickly added to me. I have to agree and say that Linkbucks is a very good site to join and it offers a lot of money if you work hard with their system.

Decent. There is better!
After a couple of months with this site, I found it to be a real pain cashing out. I constantly had a bunch of people click my links, yet sometimes I would never get paid. They have some block on 20 links a day now and I just can't make as much money. If you're looking for some quick cash there are better places then here.

Linkbux is an easy way to monetize high traffic sites
Being a long time member of the Linkbucks program, I have only good things to say about the service.
In the beginning it was a bumpy road with downtimes, scripts acting up, which was to be expected as it was a new product. In all that time we were always compensated for downtime and I can safely say paid more then we would have made without the downtime.
Now things have matured, the scripts run like a well oiled machine and downtimes are rare. As for the comments here that it is hard to make decent money with linkbucks, I have to disagree. It is easy, but you have to know what you are doing. If you have the traffic, Linkbucks has got the money to pay you for that traffic and at a very competitive rate. The service is great for professional forum posters that post image or video galleries on them (mostly of an adult nature). On that linkbucks works like a charm and can easily bring you an extra $ 15 a day. For me it's the perfect solution for high traffic forums that are hard to monetize through banner advertising or even pop up consoles. Using the Linkbucks full site script, I ensure that every outgoing link is a paid one while the forum itself remains ad free. This results in to happy members and a full wallet.
For me Linkbucks is one of the best programs out there and I sincerely hope they will be out there forever.

Great for picture galleries!
I don't really use this site as much as I should because honestly, it takes a lot of getting used to. They do have a very helpful board full of tutorials, but one thing I've found is that the easiest way to make anything through this site is picture galleries/pop up ad combo. The pop-ups are often blocked anyway, and it takes 2500 hits to make a dollar.
However, this site is mostly for people who get a lot of good quality clickers as it is. If you don't, then it'll take awhile to make much of anything. You can't use this place for PTCs because Linkbucks breaks frames. Bottom line is that it'll take time for most people to make money, but if you have many picture galleries to utilize, then it will work for you just fine. Just have to have patience as you get more and more used to this site.

Fairly Simple Money Making Website :D
I've been using this site for quite a while now and you really don't make so much money. For every click you get idk like . 010 and that's like nothing. It's very simple because you just generate a link into a linkbucks link and you post it up on youtube or something, and when people download it you earn points. Not the best website, but I think it is worth it. Anyone in need of a little cash here and there should use linkbucks.

Meant for experts, but with pay rate for newbies
I saw on a blog somewhere the first review for this site, and I thought that it could be a great earning opportunity for me, a somewhat "passive" income. Of course at that time I was a newbie, and joining this site was definitely a mistake on my part.
In order to get this thing going one must first have some experience in earning online and at least a few other tools at his disposal, like a website, blog, or at least to be recognized as a veteran poster on high traffic forums. And only after that can you think of joining LinkBucks.
In conclusion, I don't see this earning opportunity anywhere near available for the less experienced, but for those who can harness it, the pay rate is too low to be of any interest.

Dont waste time on this
It is really hard to earn a decent profit with linkbucks.
I got so many views and only make like a few pennies. Don't waste too much time on this. I found myself wasting too much time to get views which ended up making me very little money. Don't waste your time on it. Please take it from me.

No thank you!
Linkbucks may be a legitimate site, but it is very hard to earn money and the ads it displays are all trying to either scam you out of your money or load up your computer with viruses. For the last three months, whenever I click 'skip' on the linkbucks page, the news6insider.com crap shows up talking about the google money making kit scam.
Not only that, but it is just really annoying to be listening to iTunes and then a video you didn't ask for pops up and starts playing whatever random things it wants to. Just stay away.

Probably not for beginners
I've used LinkBucks for a website of mine which I have launched recently, but I soon realized that this was never going to work for a newbie and the amount of cash made over a month was insignificant. Ultimately I had to search for another means. This would probably work for people who have a lot of traffic directed to their websites and who are highly experienced in blogging, but for a beginner LinkBucks might not be a suitable option.

Pretty Bad
It is extremely tough to earn money here. I myself only really earned 10 dollars every 2 months, so I just quit. I found myself wasting too much time to get views which ended up making me very little money. Don't waste your time on it. Please take it from me.

Good Site, but Too hard to Profit
I am familiar with LinkBucks for over 6 months now. It is very interesting to see how LinkBucks works and how it it the most successful one of it's kind. I have decided to try it out after seeing hundreds of people profit off the site. I have average daily hits to my site, and LinkBucks makes me about 10 dollars a month. This is not a lot, and the only way you can make hundreds of dollars with LinkBucks is if your site receives tens or even hundreds of thousands of hits a day. I would suggest you to see other alternatives first before using LinkBucks, but if you're extremely strapped on cash, use LinkBucks for that little extra boost of income per month.

A PTC site that can potentially make you $2500 a month from 2 minutes worth of clicking! Click here and please use me as your referrer!

Hard to begin
When I started to use LinkBucks all I had in mind was "Great another way to make a little side cash" boy was I wrong. Little did I know the amount of advertising it would take to make money, If you have a website that has a lot of traffic you can make ALOT of side cash, but for the average person I don't see many chances of this making more then 100$ a Month.

Linkbucks, worth it!
The idea of making money through people clicking your links is amazing, but the fact that people have to click a single link 2000 times or something, for you to gain $1 is a little much.
BUT! If linkbucks is used right, it can make you a very fair profit. Linkbucks has an ability to convert every single link on your website into linkbucks links, which will give you a good profit.
I do recommend using this, as it may not seem as much in the beginning, but when you start posting lots of links, it will stack up, and you will earn cash. I had my fair share of using Linkbucks, and it have earned me upwards $20 in around 6 months. This product is only showing it's potential if you really have loads of links that people click regularly. Grade C.

I love linkbucks
I used linkbucks before and I still do now. It is a good way to make money from clicking. If you own a good website or just want to cruise around on the forums. And you have a link to give others. You can really just post the link and others will click! And everytime they click you get lots of money! I have had at least $5 from linkbucks so far. But i've been active from forums to retain that amount. And I am sure it is well worth it, linkbucks is a good choice for web owners.

You can make around 5$ a month with linkbucks
First, I have to say they pay cheap price for your link. I'll only recommend this site as a main income maker if you can get around 50,000 clicks a day (That means 500 people to click your link) to get about 10$. But if you get that much clicks, I recommend you to open your own website and get much more money from your 500 visitors. I've been with them for 2 months but still can't reach 5$. So I grade them D for their cheap pay.
Second, They pay on time and great with customer service so you can rest easy because your money is safe and if you reach your minimum payout, you can cash out at anytime and after 2-3 days, you'll receive your money. I've never ask for a payout because I didn't reach the minimum payment. But I do a research and found they pay every time. I give them B+ for their service & payment.
Last, If you're new to this kind of service (Don't know what to do, just share the link with your friend) I recommend you to not try this service because you'll never reach their minimum payout.
Total Grade: C

Great Idea, Good Use
My experiences with this website is good. I started about a month ago and it literally took me a month to reach the $5 payout. My traffic didn't really prefer it, but the ability for them to skip the 15 seconds per link is fine with them. I have seen people actually make anywhere from $100-$500 a month because they have a huge website with superior traffic, but then again there are other sites/programs that you could use to make more money. It's a good site and it's not a scam, but you're better off doing something else with your time and traffic.

Good for short amounts of cash
This product is basically amazing! You earn money just for putting up a link. This is a wonderful solution to not having money in your paypal. The only downside to this product is the fact that you earn mere cents for your links. Unless you have a large website, then you are not going to earn a living off of this. Furthermore, this product is great for short change in a short time. They pay quickly, and on time, unlike other sites. I would totally recommend them to anyone who is interested! I recommended it to my friends and 7 out of 8 liked the site!

Not so good, Looking for fast cash? Look somwhere else
At first, LinkBucks may seem like a great idea, and can earn you lots of money, but in actuality, not so good. I have tried it with my own site, and at first I was kind of confused. As said in the review, a person who is new will be confused at first. The whole ad intermission thing can be very annoying to the viewers, and wont get you much. I guess overtime you can make some cash from this. I'm not sure about payout because I still didn't reach the $5 payout yet. Overall I give this site a C. It's not so great.

From Personal Experience
I didn't like Linkbucks that much due to two major things. One was that they always had some hidden adult websites attached to the links that I had, so if a member would click my link, I got some earnings but they would see some adult heavy stuff. And I probably lost traffic due to that reason alone. Also after a while, the crediting process was a bit long and I got my credits (cpm) because "something was wrong with my account. " The idea behind Linkbubks is great; now if they had a better crediting system, better response team and a better site filter I'm in hands down.
Would not recommend to a friend.

Good for someone who already has blogs and sites of their own
I’ve tried Linkbucks ages ago as I did my research on them and found the majority of comments very positive. Though they won’t make you rich over night and certainly trying to click on your own links won’t make you rich, the thing is you are gaining impressions and helping their site advertise. The people who are trying to access your link are also getting to the site they want to go. I don’t advise to use linkbucks with pop ups as that can be very annoying to normal users who just want to skim through a page or maybe request to download something. So I advise you to use timers. They certainly don’t pay much, but if you already have a series of sites or blogs that are attractive, then why not use Linkbucks to add to your income. It’ll be a waste of your time though if you are just going to start blogs for the purpose of this site, as this site is more of a passive income stream rather than a good potential earner. Well good luck to all of you and I hope I was helpful enough.

Linkbucks never worked for me
I tried linkbucks quite a number of times but unfortunately found out that it really didn't work for me at all. I tied linkbucks to a number of sites of mine which had a decent traffic, but at the end really got a very small amount of money from them. Though the site is legit and I have been paid $5, but it took me ages to accumulate those $5. So in my opinion it's not worth giving so much labor to this site and instead of that getting paid so less.

Its Good service
I have been using LinkBucks for a few months and I am neither disappointed nor impressed. I found the interface for generating links quite easy to use and I haven't had any trouble with the links giving errors or anything similar to that. I can say that the site is legit, but needs to have more money earned per click.

Good PPC product
For two years I gained a lot of experience in using different PPC sites. In my opinion this way of making money is not good. There isn’t a site where you can make money only with a click. In this type of site they want referrals, which don’t have enough income and it’s difficult to find them. LinkBucks was a site that didn’t disappoint me completely. For three months I used it and I had very satisfactory income. I worked about 30-40 minutes a day and made more money then other sites offered for full time work. Distribution of links was a great problem. Nevertheless I succeeded in it. Eventually I decided to look for a lucrative job and finished with using Link Bucks. I don’t suggest this site to everyone. In my opinion only those who are patient enough can try it.

Waste Of time much?
Unless your Google, I can't honestly see this option working for you. I had my site connected to linkbucks and for the whopping thousand hits I got every single day I made less 400 bucks in the entire year. Subsequently, I lost over half my viewers because they got frustrated due to 15 second waiting period. In all, if you are a major site that doesn't mind risking losing some users then go for it, otherwise I don't think linkbucks is for you, as it wasn't for me.

Great if you have patience and a lot of friends
The site is excellent if you're not expecting to make a fortune overnight. The great thing about it is that they are really serious and they pay on time in less than 24 hours in your paypal account. On top of that they have a good support forum. The downside is that it's not really fast... , kind of a slow earner. Also it takes a lot of time for redirecting and this way you can lose some impatient visitors. All in all it's worth trying if you have time, patience and a lot of sites you can post your links on. Go for it, they really pay!

Link Bucks
I think linkbucks is good money making idea if your site or blog gets 1000's of hits a day. It is not good if your site doesn't recieve many visitors!I have used this for a few weeks and have earned $0.04. The site is legit, it is that they don't pay much and payout is $5.

Perfect for gaming web-sites that promote third party programs
If Linkbucks is used for day to day linking it is completely and utterly useless because when you get your payout in 2 months it will be at a maximum of $10.
However, sites that have a small community, for example rsbot. org, which implements Linkbucks, makes Linkbucks incredibly useful, with a regular traffic flow of 700+ users a day and a peak of 2000 users a day, Linkbucks helps generate a lot of money for websites that offer a free service.
However, the majority of the content advertised with Linkbucks is not, I repeat NOT suitable for people below the age of 18. Therefore, it is down to you to decide whether or not Linkbucks is for you.

Linkbucks!
Yeah, linkbucks is quite good actually, works best if you actually have somewhere you can post your links on (EG a high traffic website). I personally have an account and have made $25 in just over a week with it. It's great and you should try it!
You should try Linkbucks, takes 5 minutes to sign up and the limits to making money is endless.

Adult related materials are displayed
When you click links using linkbucks, you get adult related images (ie. Porn) shown even if the link is not adult related at all. This service is not suitable to minors or young users of the Internet. When I installed content filtering software, any linkbucks links were not accessible.

Review on Linkbucks
Linkbucks is a good place to advertise you're site. It's free to join of course! It's very simple. I joined some weeks back and now I am making some money. Sorry I can't say how much I earn. It's not so much. This is a great opportunity to get people to your website and earn money. It's easy to set-up and you will get results fast. From Linkbucks you earn money from you're outbound traffic not you're loyal visitors. That's a good thing. This program or community is a great way to start making money from your outbound traffic. Join today!

Not Too Bad
I have been using LinkBucks for a few months and I am neither disappointed nor impressed. I found the interface for generating links quite easy to use and I haven't had any trouble with the links giving errors or anything similar to that. Even though the pay per click is rather low (approximately $05 per click), I make on average about $12 dollars a month, which is better than nothing. And whenever I requested a payment, I have always received it in a timely manner and it was never delayed. The only problem that one may encounter would be the low pay and the intermittent ads (those that display an ad for 15 seconds before they load your site) because your site visitors may not want to wait 15 seconds before they view your website.

Worth it if you don't need money quick
I have been using linkbucks for around 8 months now, and I have only been paid once for 8 dollars and that took around 3 months to get. The problem is that unless you have some way to get lots of people to look at the link, you are going to be making money very slowly. My advice is to post the links on your facebook or twitter. That's where I got most of my clicks. I can say that the site is legit, but needs to have more money earned per click.

Bound to get certain visitors annoyed
I would not suggest using LinkBucks for doing your normal linking, no.
When users click the links, they are greeted (or--rather forced to view) with an annoying advertisement, and after a couple seconds can view the actual page.
This gets pretty annoying, and if you were trying to create a bond between you and the people you are linking, this service would not do you any good.
Now, on the other hand, if you could care less about the people you're linking to, then LinkBucks can be pretty sweet. Although the pay is very little for each click, you cannot be expecting anything more in my opinion. It's pretty fair.
If you find the right crowd and right "business", you can make some alright money off this on the side.

Nothing good about this site
I dislike this site, I find it very hard to get visitors to my link. And when I get them they are of a country which pays the lowest. Also I dislike it when I go to someone's link and find out that it is an linkbucks link.
I do not recommend this site to anyone.

A lot of work for little return!
I signed up to link bucks approximately 2 months ago and thought I would give it a try with a new traffic method involving facebook groups and social bookmarking. Unfortunately my new traffic method was ridiculous and hardly got me 100 visitors.
So, plan B was to find a quick and easy traffic source to check out linkbucks, and along came torrent traffic. This kind of traffic is very very fast and it did the trick. I set up a torrent on over 20 different sites and got 1000 visits in the same week. I thought "WoW this is Great".
So, then, I went over to linkbucks and checked my earnings and I was annoyed to see that I hadn't even made a dollar.
So, overall, the service is great and at the end of the day it's FREE and extra money. BUT, you need patience and a lot of traffic to dedicate to something like this.

Linkbucks is good
Linkbucks is a great place for money, IF you have a popular site to advertise. I personally have no such place but I still make some money from this. It is a good site that has paid me, and I have never received spam from. I hope this helps everyone!

Just another link redirection service with a twist
Linkbucks is like any other link redirection service. The upside being that you get paid in the process. Payment rates aren't that high and there are more downsides then upsides to linkbucks. Expect your viewers to get annoyed by text, banner and flash advertisements which know no bounds. Ive even seen examples of pornographic ads being shown via linkbucks redirection. This is really offensive to some users and they will generally tend to move away from your site, hence increasing your bounce rate.
So in the end you've got one choice to make. What is it you want? A couple of extra bucks or retain your traffic and loyal members so that you can make big bucks in the long run...

LinkBucks the service that pays
I like the idea and concept behind LinkBucks. I can honestly say that LinkBucks does payout. As other reviewers have said it takes time.
I joined LinkBucks around a year and a half ago. After a couple weeks I figured out how to change my links, and now it just became second nature. I am not HTML savvy but managed to figure it out with their help. I have received several payouts from them. I feel that the pay is not that great for the amount of time and effort that is required. With that being said, you can and will earn money.
My advice is that if you try it and stick with it you will be rewarded. Just remember that it will not happen overnight, and you need to do some work.

Trustable but slow
This site is very reputable and works. It really depends on your traffic and where you place your links. I've placed it on a Youtube video advertising a game and I made more cash than I expected. Did the same with forums and social networking sites. It exceeded my expectations but still it takes time. Overall it's a good effortless earner.
