@nprofile…a8nr ricordo che diversi anni fa esistevano i circuiti di banner, per farsi pubblicità. Era sufficiente accordarsi con un altro sito simile al proprio per uno scambio banner e si era a posto. Certo, le cose sono cambiate, ma lo trovavo un approccio molto più “sano”.
In effetti ora un’azienda dovrebbe affiliarsi ai propri concorrenti, cosa ovviamente non voluta.😅 Ma basterebbe affiliarsi ai siti delle riviste del proprio settore, per esempio. Pubblicità gratis per tutti.
