RedGage is a bit of a new twist on the revenue sharing mold. The site pays you for your online content and monetizes your social activity; so in theory you could be making money just by doing what you already are doing on Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Blogger etc. RedGage pays based on the value of your content, measured by page views/popularity. It is a slightly different, and maybe less transparent, model to the more common adsense sharing. Payment is via a RedGage debit card issued to you once you reach your first payout and then automatically topped up as you earn.
One of the best features of RedGage is it can automatically pull your stuff from other sites so you don't even have to regularly visit the site once you've signed up and set this up for whichever services you want to push content to RedGage.
RedGage certainly feels a lot more like a genuine social networking site akin to Facebook etc rather than a simple bookmarking and link rating place. To get the most from it in terms of making money it probably is necessary to be reasonably active on the site. However if you simply set it up to run on auto pilot and let it take your quality content from the sites you upload to it'll bring seo and brand building benfits, any cash is then a bonus.

Paid links with linkbucks and linkbee
Following on from my previous post on linkbee and linkbucks options for monetizing your links here are some working examples of the different types of links you can create. Use these to preview what a link would be like for someone clicking on it. As mentioned previously these should be used with some caution to avoid annoying and alienating your hard won traffic.
Linkbee
Intersitial Link. This acts a brief commercial between the transition of your link.
Banner. This will display a banner at the top of the destination page for your link.
There is also the option with Linkbee to use the service as a simple url shortener with no advertising element.
Linkbucks
Linkbucks offer a few more options.
Intersitial Link. This acts a brief commercial between the transition of your link.
Banner. This will display a banner at the top of the destination page for your link.
Pop up. This shows a pop advertisment before the destination site.
Linkbucks also have the option to use the service purely for url shortening with no ads. There is also a choice of alternative alias domains to use in your links instead of linkbucks.com which could be useful especially if any are appropriate to the destination content you're linking to.
If you really want to go to town with this monetized linking linkbucks also have options to automatically covert whole pages either through a form on their site to get a reworked version of your HTML or with a script you add to your code that will convert your links to paid links on the fly. Both options allow you to exclude some links you don't want converted. Again you'd want to give a lot of thought to how you might use this. With a lot of traffic it could be quite lucrative but if you've got some serious sustained traffic exposing your visitors to too much paid linking probably isn't a good idea. If you can drive a decent volume of traffic for a short campaign this could work well especially for monetizing those that click away from your offer.

Make money from your links
There are now numerous revenue sharing websites that allow you to create short articles with your links to build backlinks and then additionally will share advertsing revenue with users. Indeed some sites actually pass on 100% of the advertising revenue. Check the list of sites under "build backlinks here" for plenty of options to quickly build up backlinks to your content and potentially make some easy money online from them.
An additional option worth considering is the opportunity to actually make money every time one of your links is clicked. Two sites that will monetize your links are linkbee and linkbucks.
These sites basically work by diverting your link via advertising of some form or another. It could be a banner above the page, a brief visit to a maketing page prior to the real intended destination or some adsense integration. This kind of 'intervention' in the users experience needs to be used with some caution as it obviously has ther potential to highly annoy some internet users and quickly get you a reputation as a spammer. Used carelessly this could quickly loose you a hard won following of 'friends' and 'fans'.
However with thoughtful application for a targeted campaign or mass mailing to a diverse group of followers there is certainly potential to make money with these services simply from sharing links.
Linkbucks also offer users a hosted blog which could be used as another presence for further backlinking to your content elsewhere.
