Have you tried traffic exchange?

What concerns the webmasters most is how to drive traffic to thier web site. You may have a well-designed site with very good content, but no traffic. Even in terms of putting up an establishment or store, location is the key in order to gain traffic. But how do you drive traffic to your site, aside from the commonly used strategies such as directory submission, link exchanges and so on. I came across this site that offers a traffic exchange program. You have to view other members' sites in order to gain a credit, which allows your site to be viewed in return. The ideal ratio for this would be 1:1 which means for every view you make on other sites, you get one view. How effective is this? You may not get targeted traffic but it will definitely increase your search engine placement. Most traffic exchange programs offer this for free. You don't even need any tools, just a web browser, you can even do it on your spare time.

This sounds really good. However, targeted traffic is the ultimate desire of most affiliates in the field of Affiliate Marketing. But then, for as long as it would increase the page ranking, tageted traffic would follow. Would you mind giving us some lists of the websites that offer this for free, blue dolphin?
