Here Are The Top Post Ad Sites
This is what Wikipedia says about link exchanges:
"…[S]earch engines prefer websites that have many inbound links, thus improving positions in the Search Engine Result Pages (SERPs). To the search engines, this is an accurate means of determining the importance of websites. This practice by the search engines to rank websites has helped lead to the popularity of linked-based search engines, like Google.
Selling Off Your Ad Spots Yourself
But perhaps of all the questions of "how to do what" the most common is:
"How do I sell off ad spots to begin with?"
There are several ways including:
Selling it directly from the same page you intend to allow other advertisers to advertise on
Advertise in other media both online and off that you have some advertising space available
Have a service sell off the ad spots for you
It should not surprise you that the BEST way to sell your as spots off is from the page itself (and whether you do it or have a service do it for you).
The logic behind this is this: Many of the same people who visit your page in the first place often turn out to be advertisers themselves, and may find your page something they envy. They may say to themselves "I like this webpage and wish I could place an ad on it because I know that would get me some good sales."And that’s exactly what happens.
It’s very similar to all those websites you see that not only sell a product but which also have an "affiliates make money here" link so that not only do their sites sell products but they also recruit affiliates which in turn both sell their product and get them even MORE affiliates who do likewise!
In other words, this becomes what’s called a "positive spiral" as first some people do one thing, which in turn leads to even more people doing the same thing – but now because even more people are doing it, yet even more people will in turn get others to do it, etc … and without end.In this case you will always want to sell-off your spaces so that when all are sold off you will not just recover your costs completely, but you’ll have some extra money with which you can invest into even greater traffic buys (either at Google or elsewhere).
By doing so you end up attracting even MORE potential advertisers who you can charge even more because now your pages are getting even more exposure and more traffic – which in turn means you can yet again put a little extra into even more advertising, which repeats the whole process over, only a little larger than each time before.
Don’t feel that you are somehow cheating anyone by charging them a share for a spot that when totaled with all the others actually exceed the cost of the promotion.
Why? … Simple: Look at how magazine advertisers sell-off ad space in their pages.
They offer you and me a 1 inch display ad in their magazine which costs us say $750 an inch for 1 month’s run.
There are 30 inches of space per page available (i.e., 3 columns by 10 inches down per column).
Thirty times $750 is $22,500 worth of advertising space on the whole page.
But, if you buy a full page you may find out that it costs just $9,900 (about the cost of 13 spots at 1 inch each).
So in other words, per spot the magazine charges MORE.
Likewise, when you are selling off individual smaller spots on your landing pages (button banners on your webpage being akin to 1 inch display ads on a magazine page) you should think in similar terms.
You will thus consider YOUR cost as the same as if buying the entire page – only in this case instead of $9,900 a page in some magazine you think in terms of $9,900 in traffic generated by running a pay-per-click ad campaign at Google.
So if, for instance, your ads did cost you about $9,900 at Google (and this is ONLY an example used to illustrate my point) you’d likewise if selling off 30 spots price them similar as $750 each (only I’d recommend not as high as with magazines – although you could get away with it!)
Plus, I’d also not recommend 30 ads per landing page.
On average, I’d stick to selling off between 6 and 15 spots tops from any one landing or lead-capture page.
And the way I would price my spots would be as follows:
Calculate the total cost you will be spending on your Google ads monthly
Divide that number by the number of spots you make available
Multiply that resulting figure by 3
And that’s the amount I recommend you sell-off spots for.
Here’s an example:
Say you are getting 500 click-through’s a day from your Google ad, so that per month you get say on average some 15,000 visitors total
Let’s say that you average per click a cost of 25¢ so that your total monthly cost is $3,750
And you decide to sell-off just 10 spots on your landing page – so dividing first by 10 we get $375
Now we further multiply that $375 by 3 to get $1,125
This $1,125 is what we will now charge someone to advertise on our page
This amount is great because:
You only need to actually sell-off just 4 ads out of the 10 spots we make available on our page to fully recover our monthly costs
Other advertisers will feel happy because they are basically getting $3,750 worth of advertising exposure for just $1,125 (which works out to a Net Savings of 70% OFF for the same traffic!)
How ever much more you make by selling off 5 or more spots is money you can now use to reinvest into more traffic buys – and which in turn means you can next time around charge advertisers even more because they will be getting yet even more traffic for what still works out to be a fraction of the price!
Never forget that this same exact practice has been going on for a long time, and is STILL going on all around you offline, and now online as well. As such it is perhaps the single most closely-guarded secret on the entire Internet.
One other very famous Internet marketer I spoke with once about my system said that he was aware of it, but he pleaded with me never to tell "the masses" as he felt this is something that should only be made available to a select few individuals at the top.And judging by the initial reaction in the Warrior Forum when I first released my earlier version of this ebook, I can see how in a way he was right.
"The Masses" as he put it did not welcome what I was giving them – and many said it would not work. However, I think you can easily see in this version with the above examples just how well it DOES work and with such sufficient ease. Not only that, but my own personal fortune is very much immutable evidence over anyone else’s claim to the contrary – and not to even begin to mention the other bigger firms like Alexa who use my system all the time!If you decide to sell off ad spots yourself, you will have to:
Collect payments directly from advertisers andle the management of when someone’s ad runs and uploading it (and removing it if they should not renew or fail to pay by subscription)
I fully endorse the use of http://PayPal.com, http://www2CheckOut.com and http://www.PowerPay.com as several means in which to accept payments online.
Although some people complain here and there about each of these, in general they are the most credible, least likely to rip you off, and are the easiest by which to work with.
Generally as a rule if you work with them well and maintain honesty and integrity they will treat you accordingly.
Both PayPal and 2CheckOut make it easy as they have Merchant Tools inside your account where you can build Payment Buttons, describe what they are for, set the amounts with which to charge people, and whether they are 1-time purchases or recurring subscription payments – and they handle all payment-taking once you set these simple things up.Uploading ads
It is assumed that you know at least a little bit about how to build webpages, and how to upload changes or new material to them.A full course on this subject goes beyond the scope of this text. But I recommend if you require assistance or more know-how on this subject that you consult these resources:
• How to build web pages• How to build landing pages
• How to build lead-capture pages
• How to build doorway pages
• How to build websites
I also recommend Ewen Chia’s My Free Website Builder. If you can type on a keyboard and use Microsoft Word, then you have all the skills necessary to use this free web building tool. Otherwise you may need to look online for web building help.
Promoting Your Ad Sell]Off’s at Locations Other Than Your Landing Pages
You are NOT limited by any means from advertising or announcing to other advertisers that you have ad spots to sell to just your landing pages alone.
The fact is: You can announce this fact anywhere that advertising is allowed.

Your Terms of Service (if you have them)
A good SAMPLE ad in text format you can borrow from me is as follows:
HighlyTargeted Google PayPerClick Ads! Now at Deep Discount! Save as Much as 75% OFF! We’ll Allow You to Have Our PPC Traffic Immediately "Live" as It Happens! Don’t Dare Miss Out! 15 Only! [How to contact you or a hotlink if online here]
This ad really sizzles as people (i.e., potential advertisers) are struck hard with the proposition that they may in fact be able to get up to 75% OFF what it would cost them otherwise to get the same Google traffic by going directly to Google (or whatever search engine you name).
It’s estimated conservatively that 98% of all people just can’t help the urge to take advantage of a great deal – and "75% OFF" sounds extremely enticing, don’t you think?
NOTE: One thing that I’ve noticed almost always happens and that’s after a short while you tend to keep regular advertisers who seem to love renewing their ads with you indefinitely (this eliminates the need to constantly find newer and newer advertisers).Adding"The Magic Code" to Take Care of Everything for You!
Remember what Rachel told you at our site? She said that "now you can simply add just 1 simple thing that takes just seconds to install, and start getting all your Google ads FREE!"
Well, it’s TRUE!
Fortunately for both you & me there are tons and tons of FREE SERVICES online that will help Us to:Sell-off all our ad spots so that we don’t have to!
Collect all payments so that we don’t have to!
Manage all our advertisers’ ads and upload them so that we don’t have to!
Maintain complete management knowing who’s paid, whose ad goes where & for how long, and again so that we don’t have to!
And make sure that WE get paid our share on time!
But now YOU at least have it made in the shade, so to speak, because all you have to do is:
Build a simple webpage
Start getting traffic to that webpage!
Adding the string of code is basically the same as you would do if you had an AdSense account. However, the chief advantage here over AdSense is that YOU set how much you want to charge people to run ads on your webpages. If say you had an AdSense account and you got at most
10¢ every time someone clicked on one of your AdSense ads and your AdWords pay-per-clicks ads cost you $100 a day, $3,000 a month, then you’d have to get 30,000 clicks a month, or about 1,000 clicks a day to offset this costs.And this of course is not even mathematically possible when you consider that in order to have 1,000 clicks a day, you’d have to have at least this many visitors a day to that page from your AdWords ads alone and where all of these visitors agreed to click on at least 1 AdSense ad!
That’s ridiculous! So instead of even remotely entertaining such a doomed idea from the start, why not sell-off ad spots at the prices YOU select?For instance, using the above stats as an example, to just break even you’d only have to sell-off just:
• 50 ad spots .....… at $60 a month each = $3,000
• 30 ad spots ...… at $100 a month each = $3,000
• 20 ad spots ...… at $150 a month each = $3,000
• 10 ad spots ...… at $300 a month each = $3,000
• 6 ad spots ...… at $500 a month each = $3,000
• 4 ad spots ...… at $750 a month each = $3,000
• 3 ad spots … at $1,000 a month each = $3,000
• 2 ad spots … at $1,500 a month each = $3,000
• 1 ad spot ….. at $3,000 a month each = $3,000
My own recommendation would be if I knew I had to pay a monthly AdWords bill of $3,000 for PPCs to a specific webpage would be to sell-off 10 ad spots at $597 each so that I had the potential to sell nearly $6,000 in ads – and which nearly DOUBLES my advertising costs.
This way even if only 50% successful I still breakeven and my ad or promotion rides for free, thereby giving me Google ads for free!
Again, be sure in such a case to point out to your potential advertisers that they are in effect getting $3,000 worth of highly-targeted Google ads’ traffic, but for just $597 (which is over 80% OFF!)
When put this way, potential advertisers recognize advertising with you as a real bargain because they are in fact getting identical exposure and NOT fractional exposure which would mean dividing the traffic somehow
If a potential advertiser ever has a beef with you about what you are charging, point out that he or she gets literally the SAME level of exposure as everyone else, including YOU!
In other words, if you were taking say 1/10th the leads somehow, and offering everyone else an equal share, then you could NOT justify charging him above about 1/10th your costs.
But that’s NOT what’s happening here.
Instead, her or his ad is appearing before the FULL audience as your promotion and all the other advertisers on your landing page – but at only a small fraction of the price it would have cost him or her if they ran the Google ads themselves!FREE Services to Sell]Off and Manage Your Ad Spots Sales for You!
The FREE Services to follow do more than just one thing – they also:
provide you with a simple code that you add to the HTML of your landing pages so that they can have your advertisers’ ads appear on your page
collect payments for you from your advertisers
manage uploading all your advertisers’
ads pay you your cut of the moneys they collected
and best of all, they even help you sell-off the spaces (and at prices YOU select!)
Let’s look at each benefit more closely:
(1) Providing you a simple code…
Much like with Google AdSense you get a simple string of code that you add to your webpage so that this section can "interact" with the FREE Service. This code is like a gateway between your webpage and the FREE Service similar to a CMS (i.e., Content Management System).Once added where you want it, you no longer have to do much of anything.
(2) Collecting payments…
If you choose to sell-off spaces yourself, and handle both the collection and management of your advertisers’ ads, you will either have to secure a merchant account or do business with someone like PayPal, 2CheckOut or PowerPay.
That’s still an option for you if you choose.
However, you may want as much as possible automated so that your time will be freed up to focus on more important matters.
These FREE Services allow you complete freedom, and they even have things set up so that they can collect all payments on your behalf. This makes everything a cinch in my opinion (and perhaps you share my opinion too!)
In this way you have NO troubles dealing with banks, dealing with customers or most the hassles associated with payment collection.
(3) Uploading ads management…
Once you’ve embedded the code they give you, THEY upload whatever ads other advertisers purchase. You NEVER have to handle this yourself. Just add the code, and let them do all the work!(4) Pay you your share…
As these FREE SERVICES collect and manage your ad sell-off’s for you, they will also send you your share of the moneys generated.They naturally will get a small share for managing everything for you – but that’s peanuts to pay for what all they give you.
If you did everything they do for you but all yourself, you’d be very, very business wrestling with technical matters. So it makes great sense just to hand it over to a professional service that merely takes a small cut of the moneys you generate.
Plus, they always pay on time (which is absolutely something you’ll come to love more and more!)
(5) They will help you selloff your ad spots FREE! …
Since these firms do get a small cut of the moneys you generate, they have set up ways to actually sell-off your ads for you!
They have an indexing method, and a sort of "hub" domain that brings traffic universally their way – and from this same focused traffic they have set up webpages that categorize all their participants’ (of which you’d be a part) advertising opportunities. For instance, look at this Menu Gallery byhttp://www.Adster.com

To get TAF software to install on your servers instead, just click here now!
For web development help so you can get someone to build these things and more just click here now!
Using the immediately above resources, you can get everything working smoothly.
Potential advertisers get to go through all the various advertising opportunities (of which YOUR Landing Page will be featured here in this Gallery as well!) and select which one is right for them based on:
Page Rank
Alexa Ranking
Page Views Per Day (same as how many click-thru’s you’re getting form your Adwords ads)
And then decide if they want to buy anywhere from 1 - 2,900+ days of ads from you!
These FREE Services make it so easy and with ready and instant 1-, 2-, 3-ease that potential advertisers find it so simple to buy your ad spots that it produces a greater-than-usual conversion over just "tire-kickers."
You’ll therefore want to make as much use out of these services as you can!
Notice how this page tells all viewers that the webpage (which could be YOUR Landing Page!) is getting at least 285 Average Page Views daily and costs just $2 a day on which to advertise.
If this Webmaster (who own the Landing Page) is running a Google AdWords ad and that’s where the majority of these 285 page views are coming from (i.e., in the form of "click-thru’s") assuming they are paying 10¢ per click and 200 are actual click-thru’s, then they’d be spending $20 a day on their ads at Google.
This comes to $600 a month.
56 Notice too that they are offering a text ad for just $60 a month on their Landing Page, right?
So all they would need to get all their Google ads FREE would be to sell just a lousy 10 ads, correct?
Are you starting to see how amazing this truly is?
Had the Webmaster instead opted for a Google AdSense ads strip to offset his AdWords ad costs, he’d perhaps get just a horrible 3¢ a click at most (based on the fact that he himself was paying 10¢ a click on AdWords ads!) and at most he could expect at best some 10% (which comes to just 28 to 29 click-thru’s) of that daily traffic to actually click on his AdSense ads.
This would result in:
3¢ x 28 x 30 days = $25.20$25.20 versus $600 in advertising dollars generated!
(You decide which you think is best if spending $600 a month on Google ads!)
IMPORTANT YOU REMEMBER: Say for instance you did as the above scenario demonstrated. Keep in mind that even though you spent $600 for 8,550 unique visitors monthly (i.e., 285 Daily Click x 30 Days) to a webpage, your costs were completely eliminated! And not only this but your main selling offer (which just as easily could – and should include – a lead-capture device) gets a FREE RIDE!Here are my top picks of the services that will automatically sell-off ad spots on your Landing Pages for you:
http://www.Adspace-Auctions.com
http://www.ValueClickMedia.com
http://www.Point2.com
http://www.iTotalFind.com
Aren’t they FANTASTIC?
Of course they are.
And at every webpage You Have ever sold-off ad spots on in order to eliminate Your own Google ads’ costs, I used banners like these.
The reason I point this out is because in earlier versions of this ebook people wrote in wanting my banners so they could use them for their own stuff. And my only response was that they couldn’t necessarily use mine as they may not be applicable to their ad spot sell-offs.
So BELOW I’m giving you every single resource I use online that will produce all the banners you could ever possibly need and who’ll usually make them for you in as little as 6 to 24 hours (seldom more!)
