Here is how Banner Exchanges work in a nutshell:
You sign-up and establish an account with an exchange. You will then be asked to add a link or script to your website. In order for you to obtain maximum benefit from this type of program you need to add this script on your most trafficked page(s). This script will link your site to the banner exchange server. The script is automated so that all of the banner exchange members banner will rotate and be featured on each site that contains the exchange program script.
Most banner exchanges work on a exchange system like 2:1 ratio. Which means that every time you display 2 of the members banners on your site your banner will be displayed 1 time on another member's site. Again this is why it is important for you to add the script to your most popular pages. It should also be noted that many banner exchange program often provide new members with credits. Our exchange offers 200-1000 credits for new members depending on what type of promotion we are running. Why are these credits are important? Let's say you have 200 credits and your site is new and you aren't getting that much traffic to generate the 2:1 ratio. Your banner advertisement will still be featured on the exchange program's network because you have available credits. You will receive exposure for your site even though you aren't sending traffic enough traffic to accommodate the 2:1 ratio. What you need to remember is, in order to get solid traffic, you need to generate traffic as well.
