Following are few tips for using traffic exchange programs:Use light-weight landing pages with light graphics. Do not drive traffic on any page which take long time to load.Do not use AdSense ads on landing pages where you want to drive traffic from TE. Using TE is against TOS of AdSense. You can use other ads on your pages.Use an URL rotator to get maximum results.Avoid using video on landing pagesUse many different TE programs at a time instead of depending on only a few TE sites.

Blogger.com may be used for create nice landing pages. In that way we can use blogger may be used for TE. But general blogger blogs with Adsense should not be used with TE programs.

Thanks for the reminder about using ApSenes on TE's. It is easy to get wrapped up in promotion when you are using multiple exchanges.

@Philippe Moisan:
URL rotator: A redirect URL which forward each visitor to a different URL each time.

Video should not be used as you are getting only 10-20 seconds to present everything to the visitor. After this short time the visitor will rush to next page unless you can catch him/her.

I believe the best way to advertise in a Traffic Exchange is a Lead Capture Page (aka LCP) or some call them a Squeeze Page. Whatever you prefer to call it? Simply, it is a page that incorporates a way to capture (Auto-Responder) the name and an email address of someone that is interested in information you are providing usually free (e- book, article, download, access to a site, software etc?). Usually it is fairly small (600px x 300px) or something similar (it needs to fit easily in the viewing area of the surfing area of the Traffic Exchange) and it needs to load fast (remember you have between 8 to 20 seconds to grab their attention and have them act (fill out the form).

Another way to advertise in a TE is to use a Splash Page (basically a Splash Page is similar in size to a LCP but without the form code). When the surfer clicks on the page it takes them to some other page (sales page, blog, form etc?) if you use this tactic then hopefully you direct that traffic to a page that captures the same information you are looking for when using a LCP!

You may have noticed that either of the methods above are designed to capture information? Why?

TO BUILD YOUR LIST!!!

If you have been marketing for any period of time on the NET then you have heard that the money is in your list or you need to build your list etc? The goal of your advertising in TE?s is to build your list. Hopefully you have provided them with valuable information or useful software etc? so that you begin to build their trust once you have their trust then they will be more willing to check out your program or product and ultimately become repeat consumers of whatever you are providing. So once you have a list then you can market your products etc? to them and they will be responsive because of their relationship to You. Take Note many? many marketers make the mistake of blasting their list with all kinds of things in an attempt to Make A Sale? You Don?t Want A Sale you want a CUSTOMER!

The other thing you can advertise effectively in a TE (sometimes) is certain products or programs that are extremely HOT and NEW and provides some really good benefits or an In Demand Product.

PLEASE REMEMBER that if you do this 1) it is short lived and 2) you may make a few sales and earn a percentage of the sale or a commission. But those sales are on Somebody ELSE?s Product, Site or Program and are now on Their List.

Can you see the advantage of building your list? When these Hot Products or Programs come along and believe me they do, How many more sales / commissions will you make by marketing to a list that knows and trusts you rather than the masses of surfers that are seeing the same program over and over or already joined the program or bought the product and are promoting the same thing now trying to make a sale?

Obviously the best way to Advertising in a TE is to use a LCP to build your list and then market Your Product or Program to your list ;0)

Another thing to do in traffic exchanges is to Brand yourself. Try to get your picture on your splash or squeeze page and people will see you more and more and recognize you and you may get more traffic. It has helped for me.

@Ann Holmes:
That's a good point. I have seen some people are doing it. But I couldn't understand their underlying philosophy. Thanks for pointing out this important aspect of Traffic Exchange.
