Free
App highlights:
Varinode Ads is a free Ad exchange catered specifically towards the eCommerce vertical. We understand that not all traffic is the same, and that there are certain types of traffic that will do better in converting into sales. We make it easy to get your products/services in front of consumers who are interested, and most importantly, already in the mindset to shop.
We place ads of your products/services for display on other similarly themed online stores. This means that consumers who click-through on your product/service ad, are already in the mode to shop. As a result, the quality of the traffic is much higher than that obtained through ads you run through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any other social network, where consumers are browsing general content.
This service primarily runs as an exchange. Your products/services will be displayed on other online stores. In exchange, you must display products/services from other stores. Every time a consumer clicks on an ad displayed on your store, you will receive Exchange Credits. You can then use those Exchange Credits to fund your ads displayed on other stores.
If you have little to no marketing budget, or are spending lots on ads with very little return, Varinode Ads is well suited to address your needs. We can help your large, medium or small business grow.
Key Features:
- Instant access to quality traffic.
- No setup fees, or costs to get started. No credit card required.
