1. Personal squeeze or lead capture pages
2. Affiliate splash pages
3. Affiliate links

I would never put up affiliate links in rotation. They are very ineffective. There is just too much information.

The best is to display personal squeeze, or lead capture, pages. You will then be able to promote your programs to your subscribers. This is the  best option, especially when you build a large list of subscribers.

Affiliate splash pages, the splash pages that your affiliate programs provide, can be effective if used properly. In traffic exchanges, you only have a brief moment to capture your visitor’s attention. You need to have a way for your ad to stand out. This is where personal branding comes in.

I do like to promote my programs in traffic exchanges to supplement my email campaigns. In that case, I like to use personal branding. The best site that I have found that does that for you is Vital Viral Pro. You can enter each of your sites and place your picture and a short testimonial on every affiliate splash page that you promoting. Now, when visitors start recognizing your face, they will be more inclined to click on your ad.

You can also set up rotators to group like campaigns to maximize your available sites in your traffic exchanges.

Inside the member area, you will be able to find how many views you have had, how many clicks, and at which exchanges. It is all summarized in a cool graphical dashboard that gives you a good idea how well your campaigns are doing.

Another great thing, and a powerful tool in Vital Viral Pro is that you can have a banner and text links in the “viral bar.” This gives more exposure to your other programs. Not only that, when someone joins under you in Vital Viral Pro, they will be able to join you in your other programs that you have listed in the members area.

If you want another way to brand yourself in the traffic exchanges, stop on by and grab your free membership by visiting the clicking the banner below. Or, you can also download the ebook to learn more about it from the owner by clicking here.

Pot Pie Girl gives you 5 ebooks. The first ebook gives you complete detail on how to make money using Squidoo. Three others are guides to keep you on track. The last ebook is a conversation between her and young marketer as she takes him through the process of becoming a very successful marketer. This book is probably the best of the bunch.

She shows exactly how to successfully link your Squidoo lenses together with your articles and websites. She also gives you some great tips on how to get published on various article sites, especially Ezinearticles. When I published my first lens and linked my article, I increased my traffic greatly. The way she explains it makes it so easy.

It doesn’t stop there, she will answer any questions by email. She is a very nice person who truly wants to help people by providing excellent support.

Overall, this the best guide to making money online that I have ever seen. I have learned so much online, but I have never been able to put it all together as well as Pot Pie Girl has with One Week Marketing.

If there is was only one thing to recommend this year, it would be One Week Marketing. If you are serious about earning a living at home, you have to take a look at One Week Marketing today.

I followed the instructions – written for a newbie like me – the best I could with limited knowledge of internet marketing. I expected my site to turn up in Google in no time. Well, that didn’t happen.

I was able to draw a good amount of traffic from the traffic exchange site TrafficSwarm. It’s a very simple idea. You get 1-5 credits for viewing other websites for 20 seconds each. Those credits are used to show other people your website. As a free member, you get credits just for opening the home page. It’s a great concept with instant results. Not only did I drive traffic to my site, I was able to see all the other affiliate sites out there, as well as get a taste of the marketing tools that were available. That is when I started to get the real picture of internet marketing.

I then read that I should promote Dish Network on my website. Well, I didn’t have a website. I was in college at the time working on science degree. So, I thought that I could create a website to help other college students in my particular field. I started a free website with very limited content and put up a banner for my Dish Network site. I eventually purchased a domain name and added a little more to my website. I still didn’t get any results.

For about six months or so, I visited TrafficSwarm on a regular basis to keep my credits up. I got a nice amount of hits, but no sales. At that point, I kinda got bored of the whole thing, and pretty much forgot about it. A couple years later, the quest would be revived.

Even though it sounds ugly in the beginning, I don’t regret it. I am still no internet millionare, but I am learning more every day, which brings me one step closer to making a living online. I will lay it all out for you here so that you can learn from my mistakes and learn some of the truths about making money on the internet.
