How To Get Highly Targeted Traffic With Traffic Exchanges
The trouble with traffic exchanges is that many of the users are just busy collecting game icons or competing in surf contests and are not really interested in any of the ads that are shown in the surf.
So, rather than waste your credits on displaying your sites in the traffic exchange as normal there are ways you can use those credits to actually get highly targeted traffic to your offers.
Widget Ads
These ads are like PPC ads and display up to 3 text based ads inside a widget, see below for an example.
These types of ads are highly targeted as people will only click if the ad peeks their interest.
You can either trade your TE credits for impressions for these ads or if you have your own site or blog you can add the widget code and earn impressions.
Below are some Traffic exchanges that have these types of ads.
Tezzer Mail is a mailer site with the widget.
Banner Ads
Banner ads can also be a great way to get targeted traffic and especially if you create your own unique banners.
Most people use the same banners as everyone else and then people get banner blindness, but if you make your own banner it stands out from the rest.

Sometimes just simple text based banners work best if they have a catchy title and text that peeks interest or creates curiosity.
Text Ads
Text ads are also a very good way to get targeted traffic by having a simple text such as a question.
For example:
Do You Want More Traffic?
Want My Traffic Secrets?
The good thing about these types of ads is you mostly get a better exchange rate meaning you get more views per credit.
Also by having multiple ads you can easily test what gets you the most clicks.
