Banners, of course are a great alternative way to promote your business.

Impressions are exposures of your banner. For example, a member of TrafficRoundup sees your banner while they are surfing; that is an impression.

There are a couple of ways to get banner impressions on TrafficRoundup:

1) purchase them in the members area
2) by trading credits that you earned while surfing

Banners that are allowed in rotation on Roundup are size 468x60. Most sites that give you banners to use will tell you the size of the banner. If not, you can right click on the banner then left click on Properties and it will tell you what size the banner is.

There are two links/urls involved in placing a banner into rotation:

1) Ad URL: this is the url of where the banner can be found
2) Site URL: this is the url to the web page you want people to go to when they cli.ck your banner
