Marketers Use Giveaways To
    Drive Web Traffic
In 1999, as many of the dot-coms crashed, a new form of
consumer marketing was taking hold on the Internet. Web
   marketers, hungry to drive sales on e-commerce sites,
   launched affiliate networks that represented leading
  advertisers such as BMG, Blockbuster, NetFlix, Discover
Card and hundreds of others in what is known as "affiliate
                        marketing."
As affiliate networks grew, they provided savvy marketers
     with the opportunity to earn big commissions by
generating sales for advertisers through the marketing of
                   free gift sites online.
Part of the appeal of this type of marketing lies in its
  simplicity: It lets anyone with a presence on the Web
promote and sell goods online and get paid a commission
 by the advertiser for sales generated. This opportunity
    affords nearly limitless venues for promotion and
 marketing, access to an instant sales force of thousands
    and no out-of-pocket media costs for advertisers.
One example is NetFree Direct LLC, which owns and
operates the rewards site NetFreeCity.com. Through the
   site, consumers obtain gifts such as $300 gas cards
 redeemable at gas stations nationwide, PlayStation and
 other game consoles, flat-screen TVs, computers, digital
cameras and other popular electronics by opting into the
company's Web site and completing advertisers' surveys,
            subscriptions and free trial offers.
Since NetFree Direct's inception, NetFreeCity.com has
 delivered thousands of customers to hundreds of well-
known brands. NetFreeCity.com connects consumers with
marketers through advertising campaigns including Web,
   search engine and e-mail programs, plus traditional
 marketing channels such as print, radio, direct mail and
          direct-response television marketing.
Advertisers sponsor Net FreeCity.com by offering
 commissions for each sale. The company is essentially
 hired by advertisers to drive Web traffic to their sites.
Rather than paying for advertising to persuade people to
 log on to clients' sites, NetFree provides special online
offers and incentives, such as the free gas card and other
                      popular rewards.
