Text Ad Exchanges and Safelists are advertising avenues. You can join these for free and you can also pay to upgrade.
Because they are free, these are popular with those people just starting out with online advertising or have no or little advertising funds. They are also a good way of testing out how effective an ad is as measured by the responses you receive.
I am however not a great fan of these because I believe that your target audience are restricted. In order to use these, you have to join as a member and the people who visit these sites and view the texts or receive emails are members only. They are crowded with those with products, services or businesses to promote and they can only promote them to each other.
Postings to Safelists and text ad exchanges can also be time consuming and mundane.
Text Ad Exchange operates on a similar manner as Traffic Exchange except that instead of full blown web pages views only the member’s text ads are shown at the Tex Ad Exchanges. Members get to choose which site they want to look at by clicking on the text that catches their attention. In theory this should make for more conversions as they are not simply clicking through sites that they are not interested in as in the case of Traffic Exchange.
Safelists on the other hand are simply directories of email addresses of members who signed up to send and receive advertisements from each other. These are also known as opt in lists.
One of the positives about these systems however is that the members all have something to sell, but they have not advanced far enough in their internet marketing to pay someone else to do the marketing. They are actually reading and processing the postings themselves. That means that the average user of these systems is an excellent prospect for all those TripleClicks products such as e-books, self-improvement products etc... that can help people grow their knowledge and skills about business and internet marketing.
