ouo.io Review – one of The Best Link Shortener of 2018
Ouo.io is a leading URL shortening service that allows you to shorten your links and make money with it. Based out of US, Ouo.io serves publishers worldwide with their service. For each legitimate user who visits your Ouo.io shortened links, you get paid. The payout rates offered by Ouo.io are quite good and varies for countries. Traffic from Tier 1 and Tier 2 countries receive higher revenue than the tier3 countries. If your traffic is from US, UK or Canada, you will see higher revenue from your traffic. Their minimum payout rate for every 1000 visits are $1.5 and the top tier countries traffic receives about $4.7 to $3.3.
While most URL shortening services count only one unique as visit, Ouo.io also count page views, thus increasing your revenue.
Ouo.io provides fairly simple, easy and minimum user interface to get started easily and maximize your earnings. They also have mobile support where you can shorten links and view your stats easily.
Why ouo.io?
Monetized link shorteners are nothing new – we’ve reviewed a few here on NukeBlogger in the past, and there are plenty of other options such as Adf.ly and Linkbucks. However, ouo.io has a number of advantages over them that I believe are more attractive for bloggers.
Better User Experience
Most of these other link shorteners take the user to a full-page ad and force users to wait 5, sometimes even more seconds before they can access the link. Moreover, they often have a very clunky/ugly interface. ouo.io uses a clean, flat design on all their links and the advertisements are just regular banner ads.
Higher Payout Rates
You can check out ouo.io’s payment rates are here. They pay a different rate per 1000 visitors for each country, with countries like the USA, UK, and Australia paying out the most. In those countries, you can earn $4-5 per 1000 visitors. More importantly, they pay very well for usually lower-paying countries. For example, adf.ly pays less than $0.5 for visitors from some countries, sometimes even less. On the other hand, ouo.io promises a minimum of $1.5 per 1000 visitors no matter where they are from. If your main viewership is from countries like India and Pakistan, ouo.io is undeniably the number one choice.
Repeat Visits Counted
While other link shorteners do not count multiple views by one visitor as multiple hits, ouo.io does. For sites with lots of interlinking content, using ouo.io would increase your revenue by a wide margin. An example would be a membership site, where one visitor would go on 4-5 different links. Whereas this would previously only be counted as one click, with ouo.io it will get counted as 4-5 clicks.
Payment Proof
Here’s the ouo.io dashboard, where my previous transactions are recorded:
They offer two types of payment: PayPal and Payza, and their payment threshold is very low at only $5 USD. This means that you’d be able to easily cash out after receiving a couple thousand visitors. There is no need to withdraw payments manually. Instead, payments are made automatically on the 1st and 15th of each month.
How it Works
So let’s run through the sign up process. It’s relatively easy, and there’s not a lot of information you have to fill out. Accounts are all approved instantly, so you won’t have to wait a couple days before you are allowed to use your account!
After you sign in, you’re greeted with a clean, minimalist dashboard. There’s not too many features, but that’s a good thing in online advertising dashboards which sometimes are filled with too much information/difficult to navigate.
Adding a new shortened link is very simple. Press “New Shorten Link” in the top left corner of the dashboard, and paste in the URL of the link you want to point the user to. The shortened link is automatically created, as you can see in the following image.
