This is supposed to be a part 2 on my first blog about how to make money by sharing links that I post almost a year ago. There are new additional programs in the house. By shortening links, you can protect them by showing different shortened version by cloaking urls or redirection. In return you make money. The following programs include:

1.) Adf.ly - pays $5 per 1000 views. Payout is also $5. When I registered to this site they offered free $5 bonus. I'm not sure if they still offer this bonus today. http://adf.ly/?id=2770

2.) Ity.im - pays $4 per 1000 views but payout is low at $3 only. http://ity.im/promote.php?ref=26717

3.) LinkBucks - the oldest so you're sure it's paying. Payout is at $5.  http://www.linkbucks.com/referral/53899

4.) Lnk.co - Payout is $15. But despite the high payout, lnk.co is a good way to maximize your Adsense earnings by uploading photos that can be shared with ads through the site. http://lnk.co/index.php#223630

5.) Eca.sh - Shares revenue in a different perspective. When links are shortened, just like the other four, displays ads which allows you to share 50% to every sale from the ads which may reach up to $497 per sale.  http://megrawab.eCa.sh/ 

Note: It requires registration to earn.

If you know how to develop applications, all these programs offers API which can be coded with your application script or page script to maximize earnings.
