1. Create landing pages instead of sales pages. A business has a limited exposure in traffic exchanges. It usually takes just 10 to 30 seconds required to view a site before going to the next one. Within this limited time, thinking about sales conversion is not really advisable. It could happen but it is better to create landing pages instead.

Landing pages are one page web page and are usually called a splash page or a squeeze page. Use these pages to simply introduce the business and capture leads. The landing page can have a free offer that the viewer can get in exchange of his or her contact details. Once a visitor enters his or her contact information such as name and email address, an auto-responder must send an acknowledgment page with the free offer that goes with it, as well as other possible products on sale.

Free offers can be in the form of an e-book, software, or newsletters. The list built through this technique will then be the leads for future marketing schemes. They serve as contacts to whom the future marketing emails will be sent.

2. Join several traffic exchanges and browse on them at the same time. To do this, a multiple tab internet explorer can be used. Surf one traffic exchange then go to the next tab, then to the next one again until time is up to go back to the first tab and browse on it again. The loading time of the pages serve as the time to go to the next traffic exchange. This will surely maximize the time and effort in engaging with traffic exchange.

3. Watch out for traffic exchange offers. There are usually bonuses and contests within the traffic exchange that gives lots of credits that can be useful for the exposure of the business. Being alert in these helps in taking part of more advantages one can get from a traffic exchange.

These are just 3 simple tips, but considering these points are significant with engaging in traffic exchanges, especially with free memberships. Keeping these things in mind will surely help survive the traffic exchange system and make use of the advantages it has for all the members.
