Can anybody suggest a good banner exchange program? Iv used them in the past but I always seem to display their banners and get nothing in return!
In the starting stages of having my own banner exchange. Slowly putting the codes on all my sites, so right off the bat, there will be quite a few impressions daily for banners just on my sites. And set it up so that new members will get free 10000 impressions! But this part is only good for the first 10 who join. Anyways, it will be free to join, it is a 2:1 banner exchange. With upcoming promotion on the site, it should start getting a few good members. Try it out at: http://www.bannerbliss.com Thank you.
Carefully to see how it would affect getting paid advertisers if it was a 1:1 exchange. Will see how it works once there are at least 25 members. If all members then want it changed, will change it.
Banners are shown throughout the network, not just a particular site. So the horror one would be shown on a number of different sites. Could be a good one though, since halloween is coming up fast! Just no porn, adult, gambling, the usual ones...accepted.
You have to realize with any banner exchange that they will often take more than they give - thats just the way most of them work. You just have to take it a bit on the chin and be careful where you put banners, and the type of banners you use yourself i.e. text based banners with NO graphics perform much better than traditional graphics type banners I personally use 4 or 5 banners and text exchanges on some but not all of my domains. Some website - where you are trying to sell your products, will perform really badly if you have banners on them - i.e. banners tend to put people off buying your products I wouldnt be put off by the fact that I am short changed by the banner exchanges - some are better than others, especially the ones linked to the Manual Traffic Exchange industry i.e. where you can put 4 or 5 banners on a page and get one of your own banners shown on a good Traffic Exchange with a 30sec timer or better The best strategy I have used with banners is to get my text banners on traffic exchanges - obviously related to the work from home/biz op market. I just turn all my credits into banner impressions, and as no one gets any credits for clicking banners, I find that visitors to my site convert extremely well into paying customers - i.e. via people upgrading within my downline etc Hope that helps a bit for you
