Scratch//Back is an innovative system that allows users to "tip" you and in return you "give back" links or images. Users who tip are allowed to display a text link or image with a custom message on mouseover. You can set your own rates and listing preferences and remove any listing with no refund to the tipper.
Text-Link-Ads sell text links on your pages. You allocate a space on your page for their links, submit which pages you want to sell on, and they'll put your space in their marketplace. They take 50% of the revenue and rates are based on your Google PageRank, which has to do with how many sites link to your page. The more popular the page (based on links), the higher the rate for an ad on the page. Text-Link-Ads also offer paid text links in your feeds via the Feedvertising option. You can use the space to sell text links through Text-Link-Ads (the same way they sell text links for your site) or put your own ads in there. The Feedvertising option is only available to WordPress users.
