I got an email from Text-Link-Ads saying that they’re going to use tiny url’s to improve security and also shorten links..

As a Text Link Ads affiliate we’re pleased to let you know that we’ve

begun using tinyurl.com to shorten and secure our affiliate referral

links.

** Please note that our old affiliate urls will no longer work in one

week so please update today. Thank you!

Check out that last line – all old affiliate links will be useless Pretty scary stuff if you’ve got hundreds or thousands of posts on a blog..

Fortunately for me, i can change all of those links just in 2 seconds by replacing the old url with the new one. This is because i use evilliate links as i call them. And this is one of the perks of doing so

So i’m laughing at all of those who have to manually replace links.. i’m sure there’s a script/plugin that could ‘find and replace’ all text link ads affiliate urls but that would be a lot of hassle.. so my advice is to start using evilliate links (click the link to see what i mean and see how it’s done).
