Traffic exchanges are a free way to get traffic and leads. Many traffic exchange users are new to internet marketing, and are looking for ways to build their business. Therefore, you can use them to help build your list, with an opt in page that helps teach them about marketing.
An effective capture page to use on a traffic exchange will offer the prospect free email or video training on how to build traffic, or other techniques to use to assist them with their marketing. Since many people who are using the exchanges already have a business, helping them to market by offering them something of value is one method to build your list.
Traffic exchanges are free to join, however, almost all of them allow you to purchase hits. This can save you a lot of time. You can also build a downline in each site you use as you get a certain percentage of credits depending on how much they surf. This way you can get more exposure to your site with less time and effort.
The best exchanges are ones you have to surf manually, rather than auto surf, because this assures people are seeing your web site. You will want a web site that loads quickly, since the viewer will only be required to stay on your site for anywhere from 15 to 30 seconds to get credit. You also have the ability on some of them to target your traffic, for example to certain countries, and by areas of interest.
There are dozens of exchanges to choose from, Traffic Swarm, Webmaster Quest, Easy Hits 4 U and many others are well established and have thousands of members, which can ensure a lot of traffic for your site.
