Yes and No! First you have to ask yourself: What do I want the click exchange to do for me? If you want to promote a product or website directly by placing your URL on the click exchange and then surfing like mad to get your site shown once for every two that you see, then the answer is NO! When you are surfing what are you thinking? Maybe thats 20 another 10 and Ill get 10 shows for free etc, what do you think everyone else is thinking? The same! So lets look at this logically: Whos surfing click exchanges? Answer: Other internet marketers that are trying to get more free visitors to their sites in order to sell them a product or concept. Right? When youre surfing what do you want? Answer: More free advertising. Right? So wouldnt it make sense to offer other marketers more free advertising and customers? Of course it would! How can we do that? Simply create a webpage on your site that is super lightweight (loads quickly) looks like a bonus or reward page from the exchange you are using, it should have some traffic lights or stop signs etc. Only have a few words such as CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE WON! ETC. Followed by; simply enter you first name and email address to receive your prize from . It sounds clich I know but its ethical and you do give them a valuable prize. Thats all there is to it, that person is automatically emailed a free gift as the first email from your auto responder that is set up just for this purpose. (More on auto responders and free gifts in other articles) You now have an internet marketer on your mailing list and it isnt spam. Ive found that this works for me; feel free to give it a go! I sincerely wish you good luck and happiness Bill Boyd |
