The banner is the most frequently used advertising method on the Web. A typical banner ad is placed at the top or bottom of a Web page so that it can catch the viewer’s eye and possibly prompt the viewer to click on it.
Most advertisers pay thousands of dollars to display a banner ad. Why pay thousands of dollars, though, when you can advertise for free? By becoming a member of a banner exchange, you can advertise at thousands of member Web sites without spending a dime—no joke.

To help you on your way, I have collected some of the most popular banner exchanges.

1. Exchanging Banners with LinkBuddies

LinkBuddies manages an exchange service consisting of more than 50,000 member sites. It supports targeted advertising with over 150 categories. Although targeted advertising is one of the key reasons for the success of LinkBuddies, the exchange has many other features that make it a winner.
LinkBuddies offers a 2 to 1 exchange ratio to its members. When other member banners are not displayed, the exchange displays its own banner as well as the banners of paid sponsors. LinkBuddies provides detailed
reporting, including hourly, daily, and monthly data.
