How To Use Banner Exchanges To Get Real Traffic

This article is about a not too widely known way to get traffic to your website. Real traffic and real visitors. However, you will have to get over the stigma of using banner ads and you will have to be open minded about Adult websites.
This information is what the traffic suppliers would rather you didn't know. Lets face facts.
You want a lot of genuine hits?
You want to do it the right way?
So long as You're not afraid to make use of the massive traffic that adult sites generate (the two sites I'm going to mention to you get close to 25 to 30 million hits a month!!)
If your answer is "yes" to all three of those questions, here's how many genuine traffic suppliers get their visitors (and you can simply copy exactly what they are doing).
Though you are making use of the massive traffic that passes through Adult websites, you are going to stick to the rules, and you are going to produce GENUINE website visitors.
The term sex was requested over 6 million times last month, Just to give you an idea of what you can expect.
Here is THE METHOD...
Here's what you do - (if adult sites don't offend you). First, you join 3 Banner Exchanges. (If you join a banner exchange, you agree to show other people's banners on your site in exchange for a reciprocal banner on somebody else's site)
Then, you set up a small 'adult' site. This site is nothing big and fancy - just a few pages with thumbnails for people to click. You basically want this adult site just to be able to direct traffic. your not looking to make money or anything with it. So basic is key and you can even just use a sub domain on your current website if you want. Now when a vistor Clicks a thumbnail it opens another page where the picture is enlarged and, at the top of the page, you display your exchange banners.
So the banner exchanges are happy.
Then, you get all the traffic you need by simply posting your adult site to all the Adult Free Web Site Link Sites. (You can create a big-hitting traffic link to your adult site without even needing to promote it).
However, here's one further little trick needed to complete the cycle...
To ensure that the exchange hits go to your website (and not to the adult site) it's necessary to actually display the banners on your site. So here's what you do...
You place your banners one below the other on a "spare" page on your (genuine) website ((http://www.mydomain.com/banners.html) - for example). Other than those banners, the page is blank.
On your adult page (the one with the increased size thumbnail), in order to display the banners you simply include a special code into the html document -
"Begin
End"
This code is set up to grab the banners at the top of your site page (if the code runs short in height simply add to the 240 above until the 3 banners show up correctly.) In fact, it is actually displaying the whole page, but by limiting the size and width, only the banners are visible.
By placing 3 banners at the top left of your web page and then adding this code to the adult page, the only thing that is seen on the adult page (in addition to the blown-up picture) are the three banners.
The Banner Exchanges will, in return, send you Real Live Visitors to view your products and contents at your genuine web site.
You get 1 Banner Credit for Each Banner, which provides you with at least one Unique Hit.
The Professional Traffic Sellers have many many thumbnails and on each page where the thumbnail turns into the bigger picture they place the above code. So if they have 30 thumbnails and one person views all these thumbnails that is 30 Unique Hits toward the customers web site...plus 30 Banner Credits per Banner Exchange.
Now multiply that by the millions of people that view those web sites on a daily basis and presto there's the traffic!
If this method of creating your own traffic (or becoming a traffic reseller) interests you, you'll find that you can place free links to your thumbnail pages at (www.worldsex.com) or (www.thehun.com) (those two sites alone get 25 to 30 million hits a month!!)
There are many more Free Adult Web Site Postings available on line. The more you post too the more traffic you will receive.........
Your web page with the banners is going to load at the top of your adult site picture page exposing your banners.
Because your banners have been shown to a real live person, three hits are registered at the banner exchanges.
You receive your 3 Banner Credits.
The Banner Exchanges will send you genuinely interested people to view your product at your proper website.
Thats it. This is a true and tried secret that many of the big HONEST traffic sellers use and that most of the "gurus" either dont know or wont tell.
