Default What's the best traffic exchange for a noob?

Hi all,

Ok so I'm seeing so many traffic and link exchange offers all over the place and I'm really lost as to which traffic exchange to go with.

Without promoting your own services for the sake of it, which traffic exchanges would your recommend to an arcade that's starting out? What has worked best for you?

Thanks.

I would recommend funklicks there are the biggest, and have a really good program.

What you could do instead is put a few 100x100 banners on your site and point them to websites that have 1:1 traffic exchanges like bootyarcade, gamesplz, fishfreegames and sign up to their traffic system. Any site that will return the same or more then what you sent.

This will mean that instead of getting less then you give like you do with traffic exchanges, you'll get back what you send. Also because your not relying on a 3rd party server to load the banners they will load quicker being on your own webspace.

Thanks for the great response folks. Some really good advice.

@RickyG thank for the link. That's an interesting review post.

@Easybannerexchanges, I'll check fun clicks out.

@2grandarcade, do you mean it's better not to do any exchanges at all? If so why not?

@hawkal, I'm very interested in your approach. When you say 'put a few 100x100 banners on your site, do you mean I make my own banners or I put a bootyarcade banner on my site linking through to booty's site and traffic system? Sorry, but just want to get it right before going ahead with this.

what he means is add some 100x100 banner and link it to games on other sites.

You mean link exchanges right?
Avoid the banner exchanges that gives you < 2pv/visit,
as you can find better with link trades

I'd try the following banner exchanges - www.FunKlicks.com (ArcadeJunky), www.Mibbi.com/banner (RickyG) or www.EasyBannerExchanges.com (EasyBannerExchanges). All of those owners are from this forum. They are the largest ones.

I'm sure you already know of ArcadeAffiliate.com since I've posted in your other threads. We're putting together a whole new offering right now that will put us well ahead of other exchanges.

Make sure you do some research before you signup with anyone. Even if you're referred by other users here.
