I own a few wireless related and internet businesses and been on the net since 1996, e-mail me if you 'd like to see my Link Exchange site...My banner /Text Link Xchange works on a top to bottom system which I feel makes it fair for all the xchangers, all links and banners get noticed irregardless.

My experience starting in 1998 (sorry guys i'm a newbie) with the ol' banner and text link Xchange is they only work if based on clicks. With banner exchanges everyone places the banner on the bottom regardless of the rules and the CTR is like .001%. Sure the banner is popular but what is the fun in that. I do sponsor a few text link exchanges from time to time which only sends traffic for every click and that has a great CTR. I am always looking for a click based text link program if that's what you run could you PM me the url.

I advertise on genieknows.com, kanoodle and overture and I've found that by diversifying my marketing mix I'm getting a better ROI than when I used to just play with the big boys (google and overture). Granted I still use overture but I don't put all my money there.

the smaller PPC's I'm using have better reporting systems allowing me track my every penny.

My marketing budget isn't getting eaten up as fast on expensive bids; I'm getting the same key-words for less and receiving comprable traffic.
