Pure Banner Sites (10)
Banner Ads 4 Me
This site clearly is employing the freemium model of
promotion. It gives you a 7-day taste of free banners in
the hope you will follow with a paid upgrade.
I suggest you try out the 300X250 banner size, and use
it to build your email opt-in list.
This banner size is great for listing in bullet form the
benefits from subscribing to your list.
Of course you want to track your results. Use only banners
that have been proven effective, because you only have
seven days of free advertising.
Banner Ads That Pay
When you add banner urls to this site, the prefix must be
http:// only, no https://
Minimum monthly upgrade is only $7 (US). Minimum
affiliate payout is $10 (US).
BannerLadder
New banner site with a complex ranking system that enables
you to identify your most effective banners. (I’m not sure yet
how well this ranking system works.)
You can build your personal brand through this website’s
My Ladder Page =>click here
There is a solid affiliate program, because there are promotional, monthly, and permanent upgrades available.
Banner-TextAds
New, small banner site. Only 468×60 banners are accepted.
Plus, only be HTTPS images and target links are allowed.
The banners you add do not have to be traffic exchange
related. You do not have to use any of the recommended
sites listed.
Once you join, log in and click on Ads from the top menu.
Then click on My Top Ten Sites. Scroll all the way to the
bottom to see the Add A Program section.
(The) Board
New banner site. Clever participation structure.
Active Internet marketers will see your banners, because
the posting frequency requirement means repeated
exposure for your banners.
Individual free ads submissions last 72 hours. There are
paid upgrade options available. The $4.95 per week option
is suitable for testing short-term campaigns.
You can use the Banner Wall splash page to promote your
banner and sign-ups to this program.
Buckets Of Banners
I upgraded monthly on this site, because of the substantial
membership, and the fact that I see it constantly being
promoted.
This frequent level of promotion is an advantage to
upgraded members, because upgraded members’ banners
are shown (two out of three) at the top of promotional
splash pages of all members.
Another huge asset is that upgraded members benefit from
referral traffic and credits down through 6 referral levels
instead of only two levels for free members.
Join and upgrade now!!
Huggy’s Good Deals
This site is in French so you may need a free translation tool.
I am using the Google Chrome browser which has a free
translation resource. (See the image instruction in case your
resource is not set up).
Make sure easy translation is set up for your
browser of choice.
This site’s system is set up so that clicking on the banners
listed is a requirement to add new banners.
Note this personal quote from Huggy: “Once your ads are
published on one of our plugboards, they will be visible
across our entire partner network.”
Plugboard 300X250
Another free banner site from Huggy. Test different banners
and advertising text with this site.
Since this site is dedicated to banners 300X250 it should be
a perfect site to build your email opt-in list.
Use bullet points (3-4 in number) to state the benefits
(which could include lead magnets) provided by subscribing
to your list.
On this site only 20 links are displayed at any given time.
You will need to return frequently to republish your link
for free, because when a 21st link is added, the first link
in the list is removed.
This repetition means that people may view your banner
multiple times. Make it strong!
Plugboard 728X90
An additional banner site from Huggy. This banner size
should be an awesome addition to your advertising arsenal.
I suggest you use a free AI resource such as:
to create your banners. In addition, you can download free
images from Pixabay=>Click Here (use the search feature)
that are relevant to your advertising strategy, then upload
to Claude.ai.
On this site only 20 links are displayed at any given time.
You will need to return frequently to republish your link for
free, because when a 21st link is added, the first link in the
list is removed.
This repetition means that people may view your banner
multiple times. Make text and images provocative!
I repeat the quote from Huggy: “Once your ads are
published on one of our plugboards, they will be visible
across our entire partner network.”
Rank My Banner
The banner below leads to a ranking page that I got after
completing the submission process.
You can boost your banner’s ranking by having visitors click
on your banner (see below) in order to get to the submission
process.
Since each banner click increases overall traffic to the site,
each click (obey the timer) also boosts your banner’s ranking.
The banner rankings appear on the Home Page of the site.
The conclusion of the submission process leads to a page
where a download opportunity (Opera browser?) is offered.
Be careful you do not download unwanted content.
Viral Mailers, Safelists, And Traffic

similar sites with such a feature, please identify it
(1 site only per person) in the comments below.
List your affiliate referral url, and (A) I will sign up under
you provided I am not already a member.
(B) Plus, list the url that leads to your free banner feature
page for the banner I will create as I add the site to this
post.
(C) Also, I will leave this banner link online for a full seven
days before I insert my own affiliate link.
I will include only 4 additional sites to this section.
Thanks in advance to any readers who take the effort to
make a contribution we all can benefit from.
Free Banner Exchanges (10)
Admin Zone
Traffic Exchange 1:1 This means that you will receive one visitor
for each visitor you send to the exchange network. Best ratio!
This is a brand new banner exchange, but I included it, because
owners of new sites typically give a determined extra effort to
make their sites successful. Plus, you always want to have a mix
with different sources of traffic.
Since exchange is new, do not insert the HTML code into one of
your busiest pages, but do insert it on a page above the fold.
Remember, you will get 1:1 visitor exchange.
Banner Ad Hits
Traffic Exchange 1:2 Definitely not a good exchange ratio.
There are three compensating factors: (1)In any 24 hour period
you will earn a 1:10 ratio of traffic from non unique views.
(2)You can promote 5 different banners for each of the following
sizes: 125×125, 300×250, 468×60 & 728×90.
(3)For upgraded members==>>Exchange earnings increased to 1.5
credit per unique view.
Banner Boomerang
Free members have some work to do. You want to “View Ten
And Go Pro” once you join and log in. Click Ten To Pro from
the top menu for the full range of benefits.
Become a Tenfold Club Member by “activating Pro” (clicking

Your banners will then be listed on this Ten To Pro page where
they will get a huge number of clicks by those trying to qualify

Banner Trade
Traffic Exchange 10:9 Very good ratio. Currently, only 468X60

Traffic Exchange 1:2 Definitely not a good exchange ratio.

Those Mini-site promotion credits=> 2 credits per unique
