Here's a little trick that's quick and easy to excecute
and will get your banner displayed thousands of times
across the web. Putting this tip into action requires
no big commitment on your part - in most cases you
just do it and forget about it.
Here's how it goes...
You're probably familiar with the concept of banner
exchanges. In a nutshell, banner exchanges facilitate
having your banner displayed on other people's
websites in exchange for you displaying those other
people's banners on your site.
The problem with banner exchanges is that you have
to display banners on your site that you may not want
to have there, and with banner click-through rates
continuing to get smaller, you may be asking yourself
if it's worth it.
The good news however, is that you can take
advantage of banner exchanges WITHOUT the need
to have banners displayed on your site.
You see, there are lots of banner exchanges out there
that will give you free banner displays on their member's
sites just for signing up. That means that you can go
around to these exchanges, sign up for an account,
get your free banner displays and then forget about it.
Here are a few of the exchanges that offer free credits
when you sign up:
http://www.fusionbanners.com (600 impressions)
http://www.1bannerexchange.com (500 impressions)
http://www.surfitfast.com/signup.html (2500 impressions)
http://www.thebannertrader.com (2000 impressions)
http://www.ragingbanners.com (1000 impressions)
http://www.go-banner.com (25,000 impressions!)
http://www.trademytraffic.com (2500+ impressions)
http://www.searchengine-tactics.com (600 impressions)
http://www.submit2engine.com (200 impressions)
That's a total of 34,900 banner displays for your site!
And this is, by no means, an extensive list of exchanges
that offer free impressions. Run a few searches for
'banner exchanges' on the search engines to find more.
NOTE:
Please note one thing, some exchanges will manually
verify that you've added their banner HTML to your site
before your account will be activated. If this is the case,
you have the choice of either (1) displaying their
banners temporarily until your account is activated and
you've earned your free credits, or (2) just forgetting
about them and finding another that has no such
requirement.
And there you have it - free banner displays without
the pain!
