Here's a simple
explanation of how Tell-a-Friend works:
The aim of Tell-a-Friend is to get your banner on other sites. To
achieve this, you offer other webmasters a FREE and convenient
Tell-a-Friend tool to place on their site. This Tell-a-Friend enables
their visitors to refer their friends to the webmaster's site. This
gives the webmaster more traffic. (The Tell-a-Friend can be seen at http://www.site-promotion.com/products/taf/tafeg.htm)
You benefit because your banner is attached to the bottom of the
Tell-a-Friend. You can change the banner and the site it links to at any
time through a simple web-based interface. An example of this interface
is at http://www.site-promotion.com/products/taf/demo/main.htm
Also, whenever anyone uses Tell-a-Friend to refer friends to a site,
they have the option of subscribing to your newsletter, or to request
information about your products/services. They can indicate this by
checking the "opt-in" box within Tell-a-Friend.
Leads/subscribers are saved to a text file on your server.
Ultimately the banner gives you free "click-thru" traffic, and
the opt-in feature gives you free subscribers/leads.
The programs that run Tell-a-Friend are installed on your hosting
account, although they can easily be set up on a free web hosting
account. We've been using Tell-a-Friend to generate traffic for years,
and even use it as an advertising network as seen at http://www.site-promotion.com/services/payperclick.htm
You can see actual traffic statistics of Tell-a-Friend to see how it
will benefit you at http://www.site-promotion.com/products/taf/tafstats.htm
Essentially you don't need to do
anything more than add your banner, specify the URL/Site you want it
linked to, and watch your traffic grow. Site promotion does not get any
simpler. But remember the more your promote Tell-a-Friend, the more
traffic it generates because it is "viral traffic".
