ASKED QUESTIONS:
What exactly is Txtswap?
Txtswap is a text ad exchange network. It lets you get your text adverts displayed on
other websites in return for displaying text adverts for other websites on your site.
Rather than you having to negotiate this separately with hundreds of different sites,
Txtswap automates the whole process for you and provides you with advanced reporting and
statistics.
What is a text ad?
A text ad is simply a normal hypertext link pointing to another webpage, just like this:
The actual content of the link will change dynamically every time the page refreshes
(although it will always be under 50 characters).
Can I format the text ad?
Absolutely, you can do whatever you want to the text ad; changing the size, colour or font
for example. You can put the text ad anywhere on your site and you can put multiple
adverts on one page. The idea is to make the ad look as integrated into your site as
possible.
Are the adverts displayed on my site filtered at all?
We manually review all applications to join Txtswap and all requests to change ad wording.
As a result, you can be confident that all adverts will meet our acceptable use policy.
What is Txtswap's exchange ratio?
3:2 - That means for every three clicks your website generates (three people clicking on
the text adverts on your site), two new visitors will click through to your site.
Doesn't this mean I'm losing visitors?
No. All visitors have to leave your site at some point, so you may as well get something
in return when they do. Additionally, most good websites will make users want to return
regularly, so the visitors will return whether they click on a text ad on your site or
not. You will, however, gain extra visitors through Txtswap who will hopefully keep coming
back and so you stand to gain more visitors.
Is Txtswap membership free?
Yes! It costs absolutely nothing to join Txtswap.
How does Txtswap make money?
Because the exchange ratio on our network is 3:2, that means that one in every three
clicks served is available to us. We can then sell on those clicks to paid advertisers.
