offered but not so much that they
know what your site is about.

When you click through a splash page
find out what made you click.

"All traffic exchange users
need to be promoting
with a splash page."

Improving your Splash Page Marketing. 

Get better results through tracking.

Testing your splash pages helps find out what is working and what is not. One of the ways to find out which splash page to use is to use split-testing. With split-testing you can setup a page that will rotate through different pages and tracks the click-though rate of each page.

Add2it's Goto System is a good tracking system that allows your to use split-testing.

Their are videos to help you learn more about how to setup split-testing for your pages. You can even try the system for free. The one time offer is well worth purchasing so you aren't limited on the amount of pages you can track.

When you track your splash pages you will know if you need to change your splash page around. It has been proven that simple changes can create a major change in the click ratio.

Another idea for tracking is to use a heatmap.
Heatmap tracking tracks where on the page your views have clicked. One of the easiest to use scripts is called ClickHeat by LabsMedia.

Which do you prefer? 

Splash pages are just a simple page that links to a landing page.

Squeeze page is a simple page that tries to capture the views name and email address.

Do you prefer to use splash or squeeze pages?

Vegas, The service that I have at BuildASplash.com is free. There is always going to be some kind of selling even if it is just a one time offer. The hosting,internet access, and domain names aren't free so there is some kind of need to justify the cost otherwise the service will not last.

There is no obligation to buy anything!
If you ever need help I am glad to put my time in to helping you because I know what it is like to need help. I do have limits though as time is money.

I 'Stumbled' you - this is a GREAT lens. Excellent run down of how splash pages work. Awesome resources offered, too.

I've had some of these resources as well, but struggled to make them fit together.

Thanks so much for taking the time to create this lens!
