I don't know why more sites don't use this but with all the perpetual credits I have built up, I'm looking for sites that give ad credits for showing their splash and referral pages.

I'm not so interested in PTP pages at this point because usually credits are of a better value if you can convert them to advertising on the site you are promoting.

Does anybody know of sites that give credits for showing referral pages?

I know adsvert does as well as the traffic exchange TS25(limited and for upgraded members)

This once was a popular option but it fell away because of all the cheating involved. It wouldn't be too hard to police as long as you limit the number of credits like TS25 does but they don't give enough per page show to make it worth using them

Another one is click voyager but they also don't give enough for a significant benefit

Some would say it's a good "backup". If you were to promote a referral link at an advertising source and are not getting too many signups as a result, you're at least some getting credits from it.

For instance, some would say that the click / signup ratio is usually not all that great promoting a referral link in a traffic exchange. In that case you might as well promote a referral page you could generate some credits with as a "backup" and to try to generate some compounding growth with.

Whereas if you were to promote a referral link that does not offer referring page credits in a program or traffic campaign and do not get any signups from it, you kind of felt that the advertising was wasted.

If you know what I mean?

What Dan said. What it does is lower the risk for the promoter and gives more incentive to promote. If the site were to put banner ads or text link ads on the splash/home page then they would be expanding their ad viewer base so they would be getting a benefit for the site and their advertisers also
