You

haven't and came here on this page directly & this is your 1st
visit on this site I suggest you better read the home page,specially
written about Traffic Exchange.

Traffic
Exchange Networks 1.Manual Surf Traffic Exchange Networks or just
Manual Traffic Exchanges and 2. Auto Surf Traffic Exchange Networks or
just Auto Surfs. This section I have written for
only Manual Traffic Exchange Networks.Tips and tricks you find here are
about Manual Traffic
Exchanges.Don't worry I have written a whole section for Auto Surfs and
although they are less effective then manual surfs,still you can gain
many benefits by using auto surfs and you will learn about them in
related section.
What are Free Traffic Exchanges
There are thousands of free traffic exchanges online today.
The
trick is to find the ones that work best for you. Not all free traffic
exchanges are created equal and the most active ones or biggest ones
are not necessarily the best ones for your needs. Free traffic
exchanges are a great marketing tool for a variety of reasons. The most
obvious reason is that you get lots of people looking, and hopefully
clicking on your website or promotional pages. But there are hidden
benefits to free traffic exchanges you may not have even considered.
Search engines love free traffic exchanges. The incoming and outgoing
links they generate is one major thing the search engines are looking
for. Plus the rapidly changing content is another reason the search
engines love these things. Traffic Exchanges that have more content
also generate a higher page rank, and therefore more traffic, and
increased memberships.
The key is to find exchanges that are very active and have lots of
members. The more members they have, the more potential customers you
get looking at your offer and your chances for sales conversions are
that much better. But bigger isn’t always better.
We all know clicking on ads in a free traffic exchange can be very
boring, monotonous and can take a lot of time. That's why you need to
make the best of your opportunity or you will just be wasting a lot of
your time and effort on something that just isn't working. If you have
your own niche website, then you already differentiated yourself from
the pack. If you are an affiliate marketer, then you need to make
yourself a good splash page to capture the leads attention and get them
to click through to your site. This is the key having success with Free
Traffic Exchanges.
One way to use free traffic exchanges to your advantage is to join a
few at first, and see if your sales pick up. If your sales
aren’t
doing well, then test out a few more. When you do find a few traffic
exchanges that appear to be generating sales for you, then narrow those
down until you find the ones that are working. Now concentrate your
efforts on those because they’re the ones you want. Things
may
change and sales may start to fall. You must always be watching your
results. If or when sales start falling, it is time to change your
splash page or design another one. Always design 2 at a time and
measure the results from both. This way you can scrap the ones that
don't get a very good click through and keep the ones that convert.
If you're going to be using multiple free traffic exchanges, and I
recommend that you do, your first priority should be to pick up a
multi-tab web browser such as Modzilla Firefox. You can download that
free at firefox.com.
Getting free traffic to your website is a lot of work. If you
don’t have the money to spend on full blown PPC
(pay-per-click)
campaigns like Google AdWords, free traffic exchanges are a great way
to get the traffic you need to succeed.
Using Free Traffic Exchange
These days internet has emerged as both, a market
and hub
for marketing. Unlike the ‘brick and mortar’ world
where
large manufacturers manage to squeeze out the market bases of smaller
companies, the internet provides haven like the free traffic exchange.
They are extremely useful to those product and service providers who do
not have the advertising budget to compete with large corporations.
Free traffic exchanges can be described as opt-in-clubs, which only
other manufacturers of products and services can join. By joining these
exchanges, a member is obliged to look at other members’ web
pages. To gain membership you have to submit in your website which then
goes into rotation with the hundreds and thousands of websites already
registered with that particular traffic exchange. (This works best for
people with high-speed internet connection.)
These exchanges are generally of two types – auto surf and
manual. In the former, the exchange automatically keeps on flipping the
pages in the web browser. In a manual exchange you need to click on a
graphic or banner control to change pages. Most exchanges operate on
the credit system. You gain credit by spending time (for example, 30
seconds) on a particular website. The more the number of sites you
spend time on, the more your credit. However your credit gets reduced
when another member visits your website. With increased credit your
website goes into heavy rotation insuring a more effective and wider
reach. You can easily register with these exchanges. Most just request
some personal information and your URL.
However, you have to be quite alert in choosing a traffic exchange that
would suit your business needs. Select one with many members as this
helps in getting more exposure. One factor that is conducive to an
effective exchange is demography. You should insure that your business
is similar to those available on the exchange. Suffice it to say that a
manufacturer of handcrafted china won’t get out of an
exchange
dominated by marketers of leather goods. The drawback of this is that
in an exchange where everyone is offering similar services, you would
have to work harder to insure that your site does not get lost.
For beginners it is always a good idea to join a few exchanges of both
auto run and manual varieties. You can survey the sites and then decide
which works best for you. However, it is the manual ones which are
better in the long run because the possibility of actual sales is much
higher. One of the tricks of the trade is to use a multi-tab web
browser. The browser continues to run several websites in multiple tabs
while only one window is open for viewing. You can easily surf many
exchanges at the same time in this manner.
Traffic Exchanges
Traffic Exchanges
are one of the most important Free Teaffic & Advertising
Resources.We will call them TEs in short.There are many different
advertising methods to take full advantage of TEs.Most popular are :
Surfing & earning credits,Banner Ads & Text Ads.
In simple
words a "Traffic Exchange Site" is a membership site & you
surf & view the sites of other members & in return
other members of the site surf & view your site for
the predetermied time by Traffic Exchange owner & all the
members will get credit as per predetermined ratio e.g. 2:1 &
as per your membership level e.g. free or pro.
There are
two types of TEs (1) Manual Surf TEs where you surf &
move to next site by clicking your mouse (2) Auto Surf TEs where you
surf as you surf but you don't have to click anything & you are
moved to next site automatically.
What are Traffic Exchanges?
Are you struggling to find traffic or find most advertising to
expensive to invest in? Do you need some fast traffic to your website
or products? We cover some of the best traffic exchanges to get free or
paid web traffic. Simply surf other members sites and earn credits to
add to your websites and have them shown in their surf rotation! If you
do not have time to surf, then they have options to purchase
advertising through several forms( solo ads, email ads, text link ads,
banner ads, etc.) You can also earn cash bonuses for surfing and
referring other advertisers to their sites. A good majority of traffic
exchanges will let you take cash commissions on any advertising your
referrals purchase and earn a percentage of advertising credits that
they earn.
So what exactly are Traffic Exchanges and how do they work?
Traffic Exchanges are websites in which you can gain easy traffic to
your website. You simply surf other peoples websites and earn credits
to add to your websites and put in the rotation of the websites surf
area. A broad range of people use traffic exchanges to gain referrals
to their programs and raise search engine rank of their own
websites.There are many different kinds of traffic exchanges throughout
the internet. They will all have their unique look, surf ratio, and
other features and functions.
Some traffic exchanges will even offer very small incentives in the
form of real cash for surfing their sites. Many different forms of
advertising are available with traffic exchanges such as, banner ads,
text link ads, featured ads, manual surf exchange, auto surf exchange,
and much more, They all have different styles and methods. Purchasing
an upgrade package at the most populated or highest trafficked traffic
exchanges is also a good move. This will give you much more free
advertising and that is disbursed to you throughout the length of the
upgrade, as well as other benefits and luxuries that free members do
not experience.
There are 2 main types of traffic exchanges : "Autosurf" &
"manual surf".
Autosurf exchanges are automatic which means you can leave your
computer on and have it automaticly surfing the websites at the
exchanges earning you lots of credits while you are away. Generally the
point of autosurfs is really only to raise page rank, as very rarely
will you ever get a sign up to your program or a sale to your product
as people really don't have to look or be at their computer to use the
autosurf. An important note also is if you use autosurfs most
publishing/affiliate networks are against them and will terminate your
account if your promoting your website with their published ads on it
within autosurfs.
Manual surf exchanges are sites in which you actually have to
physically be at your computer to manually surf other members websites
and earn advertising credits. They are great for driving some quick
traffic to your sites for free. You can also refer other people to use
them and earn a percentage of advertising credits that they earn. There
are some non paying manual exchanges and also ones that you can indeed
earn real cash with available on the internet. Paying traffic exchanges
also let you earn very small amounts of real cash or credits that can
be converted into real cash by surfing the websites at their site.
Usually they give you certain percentage of cash for every 1000
websites you surf, or while you are surfing you might see a little text
icon saying "you just won real cash! click here to claim it!" We have
listed here on our website the best traffic exchanges with the widest
range of members through out the world as well as the best surf/pay
ratio out there.click here to visit our list.-> Traffic Exchange
How To Use Traffic Exchanges Effectively
Traffic Exchanges: Love them or hate them. Why would you use them?
Well, it is mostly effective if you have a website that you want to
rank higher in the Search Engines and a perfect place to get more hits
is at a Traffic Exchange. You might also want to use Traffic Exchanges
to get customers for your products or recruits for your program. But
you will find with Traffic Exchanges that other people are in there
trying to put their opportunity in front of you, and you might wonder
if there is any point to it, and whether you are just wasting your
time. You will probably find that it is the same as with anything in
life: You will have those who are successful, and those who don't make
a dime, saying that it obviously doesn't work.
As with any of your other Marketing Efforts, you need to actually put
some effort and time into promoting via traffic exchanges. It is best
to use your time wisely and surf several exchanges at once. This is
easily done with the Mozilla FireFox Browser, where you can have
several surf pages open at once with tabs at the top. Plus if you store
the surf pages of all your exchanges in one bookmarks folder then you
can launch them all at once by selecting "Open in Tabs".
However, the best way to stay organized with Traffic Exchanges is to
store them all in an Excel Spreadsheet. Make six columns with the
following Headings:
Exchange Name: The name of the Traffic Exchange
Referral URL: The URL you would use to refer others
Startpage/login URL: Some Traffic Exchanges let you surf without login
in
Username: Your ID or username
Password: your password to the site
Schedule: List the day you will login and assign credits for each site.
You will make your schedule depending on how many days you have
available to do your surfing. I suggest that you do an hour twice a
week, and select 10 of the best performing Traffic Exchanges. By making
sure your pages are seen 24/7 on just 10 exchanges, your sign up rate
will skyrocket. For the latest testing for the top exchanges see the
Traffic Hoopla link below. I would also suggest that you include in
your top ten one of these new traffic exchanges, which is part of a
network of over 500 exchanges, ranging from 300 to 5000 members each.
So you get 500 for the price of one, so to speak, as your website is
seen on all of these: See the PlaneTraffic link below.
You need to treat your Traffic Exchange surfing as a serious part of
your business. Surfing 5 – 10 minutes a day will therefore
not be
enough. You need to be consistent and surf regularly for about an hour
a day for your page to get regular exposure to others. There are two
ways to get a lot of exposure on Traffic Exchanges: Surf a lot or
purchase credits. You can also upgrade and will triple your efforts
doing that as you will get a higher surf ratio and more credits if you
refer someone. So the best scenario would be to do all three.
Another good way to get more credits is to make referrals. You can have
a splash page, like the one on Traffic Hoopla, to advertise for
referrals. If a Traffic Exchange gives you a way to communicate with
your referrals, use it. You should send your new referral a welcome
message, with a way to contact you if they need assistance. You never
know, you might make a loyal team member who will follow you in other
ventures. Always remember to use your signature file at the end of your
message.
So, what else should you promote? The lovely corporate pages of your
business might look good on a traffic exchange, and you might want use
traffic exchanges for your corporate website to get more hits and rank
higher in the search engines. However, as everyone is there to promote
his or her opportunity, you wouldn't get many sign-ups from that
effort. The best thing to do is not to use your corporate website at
all, but a cleverly designed splash page used to capture leads, as very
few of us are ready to buy something the first time we see an ad.
An effective page is a very simple lead gathering page such as a
generic recruitment one or a customer prospecting one. You can design
the first one to be totally company independent so that when somebody
contacts you through it you can discuss what's best for them in person.
They also get directed to your site afterward to read at their
leisure. A Lead Capture Page offers people a valuable free information
product, such as an e-book or video in exchange for signing up from
your link. To put it simply; that's the key to effective advertising in
the exchanges. You only have around 20-30 seconds to grab someone's
attention so come up with something different; something amusing or
topical. Stop wasting your traffic and start using your traffic to
build your list.
Many Traffic Exchanges provide features that aren't being fully
utilized by Traffic Exchange Members. These features are there to
assist you in your promotional efforts. Features like the way-station,
where you can set your pages to show one after the other in succession
so that it gets maximum exposure. Or you can have your splash page and
your banner linked so that they show simultaneously. You should take
advantage of all these features that exchanges provide. They are there
to help you gain more exposure to your product of service, and provide
you with a way to mentor your downline.
Did you know that Traffic Exchanges are one of the very best ways on
the web to exploit the benefits of banner promotion? According to Tim
Whiston, a writer and entrepreneur who has been involved with Internet
Marketing since 2003, this is true. A well designed banner placed on
the surf bar or within the members area can generate loads of very
targeted traffic for your site. Text banners are especially effective.
If you haven't been taking advantage of the banner rotation offered by
your favorite exchanges, you should do so right away. A strong banner
campaign can produce some very favorable results.
It is very important to stand out from the crowd. You can do this by
not only using a well designed splash page, but also a customized page
that personalize the site for the viewer. For example at TrafficSwarm
you can use a splash page specifically designed for and addressing
"TrafficSwarm Users."
You have to keep working at your advertising. Long term success will be
yours if you consistently and regularly advertise, because you are
keeping your business name in front of people for an extended period of
time. Always check what other people are promoting and how they are
doing it. Not only can you get ideas for your own advertising, but you
can get ideas on website design, headlines and images. Make sure your
face or logo is on every banner or splash page you promote. By doing
this, people will see the same picture over and over again, and this
will stick in their mind. Just like Coke promote themselves by making
sure you don't forget their logo. The longer you do this, the more
results you will get. Traffic Exchanges are a long term project, not a
short term one. If you stop promoting after a few days and proclaim:
"This doesn't work!" guess what …. You're right!
The importance of tracking your ads when using Traffic Exchanges cannot
be overemphasized. I mentioned Traffic Hoopla before, which tests
effectiveness, but only you can find what works for you by tracking
your own results.
Being a member of a mixture of about 10 well chosen Traffic Exchanges
give you free advertising which can be an effective way of advertising
and marketing if you work it correctly. Are you going to be part of the
Internet Marketing Statistics? Which part are you … the 95%
who
fail, or the 5% who succeed? It is up to you.
What You Need to Know About Traffic Exchanges
Briefly for those who don't know, a traffic exchange is a membership
site where you view other members sites in exchange for them viewing
yours. There are many forms of exchanges. Traffic, banner, startpage
and autosurf exchanges all help generate traffic to your site for free.
For almost all new online marketers, traffic exchanges are the first
place they start, so if you have a product targeted to "newbies"
traffic exchanges are a great place to market it.
Warning: Google adsense
does not allow traffic exchange traffic. Unless they changed it sense
the last time I checked. Read the rules carefully with any paid to
promote program also.
One important thing to remember. You are marketing to other marketers.
No one I know of surfs traffic exchanges for fun. Everyone on a traffic
exchange is clicking for credits, not looking to buy. They may make a
purchase if an ad catches their eye, but don't expect high conversion
rates from traffic exchange traffic. The chances that a surfer trying
to build up credits will stop to surf through your site are also slim.
This is where splash pages come in.
A splash page is a one page ad telling about your site or business
opportunity. Great for affiliate marketers. This is where you presell.
Your splash page should be eye catching and informative, but not
lengthy. Remember you only have 10 to 30 seconds before the timer runs
out to capture their attention. I recommend your splash page link
always open in a new window and you state that on the page. I
personally hate having to go back to my exchage page and login again,
but that's just me. Some gurus recommend that your site break out of
the frame and disable the browser's back button. I don't like to be
bullied and have never purchased from a site that refreshes everytime I
hit the back button.
Most traffic exchanges have a free membership option. Free members get
less traffic and don't get most of the extra goodies the exchange
offers, but read the terms carefully. I found one exchange, I won't
mention the name, that required paid members to surf 60 sites a week to
remain active. The idea of paying for a membership and then having to
work to remain a member just rubbed me the wrong way.
Upgrades come in various shapes and sizes. You may have three different
upgrade options with three different prices. Some are a one time fee,
others are recuring monthly. My advice jump on the one time fee and
steer clear of the monthly fee. If you are going to buy traffic on a
monthly basis there are much better deals out there than traffic
exchange traffic.
Most exchanges will give you bonuses for referring new members. When
your downline gets big enough you won't have to surf anymore to get a
steady stream of traffic, but some exchanges have a minimum surf
requirement, again read carefully. Now some of them will even pay money
for referrals. A few give you traffic and cash for surfing. You can
earn
money while advertising your site. What could be better than that?
Learn to use traffic exchanges effectively and you can build a surge of
traffic to your site plus pocket some cash without making a single
sale. Yes you read it right. Choose the right exchanges and you can
make money without making a single sale. Not a lot of money mind you,
but money is money.
You will find a lot of offers for cheating software. Don't use it. Most
exchanges have numerous anticheat features. You will get caught and you
will get banned. A lot of exchange owners own more than one exchange,
so if they recognize your name or email address you could be banned
from all their exchanges and they will pass your info on to other
owners in the forums. It's not worth all the hassle just to be lazy.
Follow the rules and traffic exchanges will treat you right.
Traffic Exchanges Can be Like a Dog Chasing It's Tail
Are traffic exchanges really worth the time and effort you have to put
in them in order to get results that are beneficial to your business?
Can you even get results that will help your business succeed?
If you do a Google search for traffic exchanges, you will find
thousands, on Yahoo, millions of sites to choose from. There are all
kinds of names for these sites too. From farm animals to sea creatures
to pirates and bunnies and just about anything else you can think of.
Of course, all are free to join and all have upgrade options.
So are they worth it?
I guess it all depends on what your approach is and what you expect to
gain from them. If you like to see lots of hits to your site, then they
could be worth it. But, the ratio of time you spend surfing versus the
actual results you get are usually not worth the time and effort in my
humble opinion.
With the majority of exchanges you get a 3:1 hit/traffic ratio. That
means you must surf 3 sites to get 1 exposure to your site. Surf 100
and get 30 exposures. Of course if you upgrade, with most at least, you
get a 1:1 hit/traffic ratio plus other added benefits. And round and
round you go, just like a dog chasing it's tail.
Now the traffic exchange owners and others will tell you that you will
get tons of traffic and hits to your website, which is actually true.
My thought would be, who wants tons of hits and traffic if it's not
going to do you very little if any good at all towards accomplishing
whatever it is you want to get from your website, which in most cases,
is to make sales or get sign ups for your programs.
I guess some people just tend to be impressed with lots of hits to
their website counters or traffic statistics and it makes them feel
good to think that people are actually visiting their site when in all
actuality the people visiting are not even paying attention.
The biggest problem or conflict I see with traffic exchanges is that
everyone involved with them are wanting the same thing. They all want
traffic to their sites and they either want you to sign up for their
program or they want you to give them your email address so they can
give you access to some rehashed, out of date, free report that will go
on and on about less and less. Then they have your permission to pester
you later through your email.
Let's face it folks. Traffic exchange surfers are surfing for one
reason, to get hits back to their sites. Most, if not all of them,
could care less about your site and aren't paying any attention to it
except to see what else is out there and how it compares to what they
are promoting or maybe to get ideas for their own sites.
Don't believe me? Then let me ask you a question: When have you ever
been to a traffic exchange to specifically search for something? Do you
go to traffic exchanges to search for opportunities? NO! You use a
search engine of course to find something of interest which you had to
type in a specific phrase in order to find results.
So who is making money with Traffic Exchanges?
That's easy, the traffic exchange owners are. Whether you stay a free
or upgraded member you will be exposed to numerous offers,
opportunities and email's. The latest craze going on with traffic
exchanges is to show you their famous 'OTO' (one time offer) every time
you log in before they allow you to surf.
My beef about the traffic exchanges is, with a little extra effort, you
can get much more targeted traffic/conversion ratio's from things like
article writing, keywords, SEO, Squidoo, Hubpages and even some social
networks than you will ever get from traffic exchanges.
And by the way, all those so called reports out there that tell you
they can show you how to get the most from, or what you're doing wrong
in regards to exchanges... well, they were all written by... you
guessed it, traffic exchange owners.
So it's up to each individual to decide if it's worth their time or
not. If you have the time, go for it. If nothing else, you will get to
see what everyone else is promoting and get some great ideas on splash
and squeeze page layouts and also some compelling headlines and great
wording that you can use later for your own promotions. Happy Surfing!
Traffic Exchange Programs to Woo Customers
Did you know that just like link exchange, traffic exchange programs
are also available? Yes, today you can virtually subscribe to large
scale traffic databases with other websites which allow traffic to
visit your site.
How it works
The way it works is that relevant and associated sites will be
advertising their services in traffic exchange packages. You just need
to contact them and follow the procedures required. Subsequently your
traffic will be diverted to these sites and the traffic from them will
be directed to yours. You will need to browse all associated sites in
the traffic exchange program before visitors start coming to your site.
So the more you browse the more the visitors to your site. Thus by a
healthy exchange of traffic volumes, it results in a win-win situation
through which both parties gain.
Relevant traffic
Many websites make the mistake of signing up for unrelated traffic
exchange programs. By doing so, they limit their sales conversion
figures as well as compromise on their reputation online. Your website
will benefit from traffic exchange programs only if the incoming
traffic to your site is interested in what you are selling. Else you
just risk losing out in the competition. When you have random,
unrelated traffic your incoming traffic maybe high but the conversions
in sales will be very slow. Why take that risk when you can start
getting sales right away?
Making them work for you
The ultimate objective of your traffic exchange program is to get more
clicks into your site and hence more credits. You want to browse
through the maximum number of websites in the exchange so as to get the
most number of visitors. Also, since these programs are quite
straightforward and foolproof, you can expect to be compensated with
traffic as per the amount you browse.
Incentives
There are some traffic exchange programs which provide you with an
incentive the moment you sign up with them. By joining such programs
you can gain an instant access to cash and bonus credits online.
Sometimes just depending on passive advertising techniques
doesn’t help. You also need to actively pursue traffic by
such
traffic exchange programs.
Complementary sites
As you browse through the traffic exchange and visit other sites which
fall in the network, you will find sites which are relevant to your own
website. It makes sense to individually contact these website owners to
ask them for links. This way you can even build on your link density
while combining it with the traffic exchange program.
Don’t have too many web pages
Sometimes the success of your traffic exchange program will largely
depend on the density of your website. If your site has too many web
pages it might make it difficult for other users in the exchange to
navigate your site easily. This may make it harder to get access to
large scale traffic. So try and keep your website as simplistic and
with as few pages as possible so you can benefit from the traffic
exchange program.
How to Make Traffic Exchange Websites Work for you
Website advertising drives more traffic to your site through ads and
links you distribute all over the Internet. However, ads are a less
active way of driving traffic to your site. Once you post an ad,
it’s up to the particular ad to attract viewers and entice
them
enough so they would visit your site. If you think you still need to do
something more, well, why don’t you participate in a traffic
exchange?
A traffic exchange is a technique to drive more traffic to websites
through traffic exchange programs. These programs or websites are
websites that offer to increase the traffic in the sites of their
members. The idea is to sign up with these programs. Once your site is
listed as a member, you will then need to earn credits. These are
gained by surfing through websites that belong to other members of the
exchange. In exchange for your visit, you will be granted a credit. The
more credits you earn, the more members of the traffic exchange will
surf through your site.
The credits you can earn equates to a certain number of visits that are
driven to your site. However, members of traffic exchange programs also
have the option to upgrade to a higher-level membership, which
increases their credit ratio. This increases the number of visits
equivalent to each credit they earn.
In a nutshell, a traffic exchange is just like any simple exchange of
benefits. Aside from exchanging traffic through the traffic exchange
programs, however, members can also interact with other website owners
in more ways. As a website owner, you will most likely come across
sites that complement yours, as you surf and browse through other
member sites. To get more benefits out of the traffic exchange program,
you can contact the webmaster or owner of a website you’re
interested in and can arrange to exchange links as well. These equates
to plenty of benefits, given the small price you have to pay. All it
takes is some time and effort. Some traffic exchange programs may
charge some fees for additional features or extra credits. However,
generally, traffic exchange programs are mostly free of charge and
available to any website owner or webmaster who is not keen about
leaving the dirty work up to static, unmoving ads and links.
Traffic exchange is an easy way to generate more traffic to your site.
This is a more active way of pursuing traffic, since the number of
visits to your site depends on the number of websites you also browse
through. The initial benefit of traffic exchange program is so
downright advantageous that this is more or less a foolproof and a
truly effective way to drive traffic to your site. Since it also has
some other bonus advantages, then, you’ve got even more
reason to
sign up for a traffic exchange program now. Don’t just leave
your
ads to do the job. Reach out and make sure that traffic gets to your
site. Traffic exchange is the way to do it.
Cheating the Traffic Exchanges
Using traffic exchanges is a great promotional tool for anyone. Either
you are an internet marketer or simply want exposure for your forum or
blog, using traffic exchanges can benefit you with wonderful exposure.
But is cheating a traffic exchange the way to go?
The process of using a traffic exchange is a simple one. You view other
member sites, in exchange, for them to view your sites. The more sites
that you view, the more viewers that you will receive at your end. It
is simple, fair, and based on the premise of good surfing. But always,
there will be the very few that will want to "cheat" the system to
garner more exposure for their own ventures, without putting in a fair
effort themselves. In this author's opinion, these are the lazy lot.
There are many ways to cheat a traffic exchange, and really depends on
how the traffic exchange is set up. Let's look at a few of them.
Downlines – Here, a member may sign up under their own
membership
(as being referred by themselves) and benefit from any downline bonuses
that the traffic exchange has in place.
Emulators – Using an automatic clicking emulator, can take
away
the manual process of surfing and let the cheater simply tend to other
activities, while he cheats the efforts of the other members of the
traffic exchange.
Refreshing – Some traffic exchanges will give credits for the
opening of a browser page to their exchange. Refreshing the browser can
cheat these types of traffic exchanges.
Now you may be saying to yourself, that this is a great way to use
traffic exchanges, where you do not have to put forth the same effort
as other members of the exchange while gaining the same benefits. But
hold on. Traffic exchanges have developed over the years and most have
very good anti cheating mechanisms in place.
If you are cheating the downline way, then this can be easy picked up
by the traffic exchange's own system. I won't mention all of the ways,
but repeated signups from the same IP address is a simple give away.
The use of emulators have been halted, by many traffic exchanges
implementing "clicking" procedures to be actual done by a human. These
can come in the form of simple questions to be answered once in while,
asking for a certain number or color code to be clicked upon, or by
simply changing the area of the screen in which a user must click to
continue surfing. Also refreshing browsers, is now a simply pick up by
any reputable exchange.
It should also be noted cheaters, that are caught, risk a great
disreputation to follow. Not only will they usually be banned by the
traffic exchange in which they abused, but more than likely, their
actions will be passed on to other traffic exchanges. Owners of traffic
exchanges, generally keep in contact with one another, and if a known
cheater is doing the traffic exchange circuit, it won't be long that
the won't have any avenues to expand their cheating efforts.
In short, there is no place for cheaters in the traffic exchange
industry, or any industry in fact. Maintaining good business practices
and respect to all involved, is the best approach for enterprises and
reputation.
Traffic Exchanges and the Internet Marketer
Internet marketers know that they are in a competitive industry and
that
there are many avenues of approach for them to market their products or
services. Which is the best? All have their positive and negatives. But
one to consider, is the user of traffic exchanges.
A traffic exchange refers to the concept of a venue (the traffic
exchange) where you are exchanging your visits to other member sites,
for other members to view your sites. This helps to increase traffic to
your own website and bringing in more traffic. A rather simple process,
but effective one, especially for the internet marketer.
There have been many traffic exchanges come and go over the past few
years. The long standing ones, are generally the most effective. They
will tend to have a ground membership that is active, plus newer
members signing up on a continual basis. Thus, generating more exposure
for you.
But what is the cost of traffic exchanges? Generally, they are free,
and should be free. Members of traffic exchanges usually have to do a
little "work", i.e. surf other member's sites. In this vein of thinking
they are "earning their keep" at the traffic exchange. Although this is
nice in practice, can be a little over burdening, especially if time
constraints are of a concern for you. The better traffic exchanges,
will offer paid services, just to ease your marketing concerns. These
paid memberships can be in the form of extra credits, better surfing
ratios, banner displays, even email promotion. All great advertising
tactics for the savvy internet marketer.
As previously mentioned, the traffic exchanges that have been around
for a while (generally more than 2 years) are the most effective for
advertising. Why? Well, its simple. These exchanges tend to be more
professional and cater to the needs of their membership. The "fly by
night" exchanges and sometimes pop up, and then disappear only hurt the
traffic exchange industry, and its members. Also, these exchanges,
usually have a good core membership that are interesting in viewing new
products or services, and can be new clients for your own internet
endeavors.
I must reiterate also, that this can be free advertising, if you want
to put a little effort into it. Being a free member of a traffic
exchange refers to the vast majority of any exchange. The more serious
marketers will of course opt for the paid services of the exchange. But
in fact, any free member can have great marketing success.
One final point to mention is that there are two main type of traffic
exchange: manaul surf and autosurf. The manual surf exchanges are very
much more effective in advertising and promotion, simply due to the
fact that your site will be seen by other manual surfers. Autosurf
exchanges have their place, but its not usually for the marketing end
of this, mainly because one cannot guarantee that someone is viewing
your site.
So, in general, if you are serious about internet marketing for your
products and/or services … take a look at the traffic
exchanges
out there, and especially the manual surf exchanges. You may discover
an untapped resource for your advertising needs.
Everything About Traffic Exchange Engines
Surfing Traffic exchange engines is one of my favorite internet
marketing method to drive traffic to my website
and blog every day. Like any other method surfing for credits had its
own advantages and disadvantages. This article will discuss the
advantages and disadvantages of traffic exchange engines.
Advantages:
1. Traffic exchanges are free to join, meaning, everyone can use them
without thinking on their budget. All traffic exchanges have the
upgrade option, if you can afford it, it is much recommended. The
upgrade option will earn you more credits per page you surf and extra
bonuses.
This means traffic exchanges are also free to use. When you register,
you add the link you want to promote and then you start clicking, the
worth of one page view is changing from one engine to another and
varies from 0.3 credit to one credit or more.
2. Traffic exchanges are very easy to use. The first step is to
register, then you add your links to promote to others. Now you start
clicking and surfing for credits. After each click, wait for the timer
to go off and then click again.
3. Earn bonuses, and more bonuses. Each traffic exchange engine has its
own way to give more to those who surf it. You need to pay extra
careful when surfing and look for the extra bonuses that come up every
few pages.
4. The more website you surf the more exposure you get. More clicks
means more credits, there are also bonuses to those who surf more.
After earning your credits, go to your member area and assign them to
your links, to make you links available for others to see.
5. Surfing for credits on traffic exchanges is the best method to use
when you are lacking the inspiration or motivation to do any internet
marketing work. Open a few traffic engines in tabs and surf them
simultaneously while watching TV, sitting with your legs up, and
relaxing.
6. It doesn't take long to surf 50 or 100 pages; it takes about 30
minutes to one hour. If you surf 5 or more websites simultaneously on
different tabs, you can earn enough credits to promote your website
that day.
7. You can earn extra credits by referring new members to the traffic
exchange. Some engines will reword you with credits when referring a
new member and you also earn credits when your downline is surfing for
credits, this way you earn credits the passive way.
Disadvantages:
1. The conversion rates of traffic exchange engines is very small, you
need to test your results and change your promotions to get better
results with time.
2. It is better to use traffic exchange engines to build your list and
send prospects to your sign up form to your newsletter by showing a
squeeze page on the traffic exchange. You will get best results if your
promote a squeeze page and not an affiliate link or a link to selling
products.
3. Like many other programs traffic exchanges are free for the basic
suite. For better results it is best to upgrade your account and earn
more credits and more exposure.
An upgraded account is offering more links in the rotation, more
banners and text links in the rotations, more credits per click, and
more higher value to the bonuses earned.
4. Many people make money online using only traffic exchanges, however,
if this is not your main marketing method, you should use other
marketing methods too, and limit the time you spend surfing for credits.
5. Like you many other internet marketers are using traffic exchanges
to build their lists and promote affiliate links. You may found some
very good offers while surfing the engines, but you must beware and
stay focused, or you will find yourself joining too many newsletters
with no information, and too many affiliate programs
, that you need to promote too.
Staying focused will help you surfing for one purpose, earning credits
to promote your own links.
Surfing for credits is a free, fun and easy way to advertise and
promote your website and links.
Quest for the Best Traffic Exchange
Before I start, let me just give a definition of The Best here as
different person may have a different opinion of the term. As for me,
The Best here simply means something that delivers the result that I
want. To be more specific, a Traffic Exchange that really brings
traffic, and not only that, it also brings quality traffic to a website.
But what exactly is Traffic Exchange? Here is an excerpt from Wikipedia:
"A traffic exchange is a type of website which provides a service for
webmasters in exchange for traffic. It is similar to the autosurf
concept with the exception that traffic exchanges usually use a manual
rotation.
Concept
A traffic exchange website receives website submissions from webmasters
that join traffic exchange networks. The person who submitted the
website then has to browse other member sites on the exchange program
to earn credits, which enable their sites to be viewed by other members
through the surf system. This increases the number of visitors to all
the sites involved.
Exchanges enforce a certain credit ratio, which illustrates the amount
of websites the surfer must view in order to receive one hit through
the program for their promoted website. Many sites offer the ability to
upgrade one's membership level for a more equal credit ratio.
As the viewers are all website owners or affiliates, it is possible
that some might find certain member sites interesting and thus make
note of them on their own sites, sending more traffic their way. Most
traffic programs also impose a time limit when members are browsing,
ranging from 10 seconds to 60 seconds. Some incorporate the use of
captcha to ensure user interaction…”
My quest started in July 2008 and naturally, to do that I hopped from
one Traffic Exchange to another in order to have an understanding and
subsequently decide on which is the best.
It is probably not wise for me to list the names of all the Traffic
Exchange sites which I have evaluated here but it is suffice to mention
that I evaluated around 7-8 of them. My evaluation focused on three key
areas:
• Available features
• Ease-of-use
• Able to deliver
The 2 ½ months quest finally brings me to Linkreferral. What
set
Linkreferral apart from the rest are these two killer features:
• Review on members’ websites
• Add to favorite
In my earlier article The Ultimate Lead Generation Techniques, I
discussed on how to exploit these two features to bring in hordes of
traffic to your website.
As a conclusion, Linkreferral is the best traffic exchange for a small
business set-up with a small budget. It has successfully packaged the
system to deliver all the expectations of a so-called Traffic Exchange.
The Traffic Exchange Secrets to Unstoppable Traffic
It’s common to hear many marketers complain that traffic
exchanges don’t work and they don’t use them for
their work
at home business. While I don’t deny that I have never made
an
extensive study on how these people arrived at such conclusions, I can
only guess that these people do not really understand traffic exchanges
enough to take advantage of a very powerful business platform. This
article hopes to show some of the best known approaches of many
successful marketers who use traffic exchanges to generate unstoppable
traffic for their home business opportunities.
What To Promote In A Traffic Exchange
Many people fail to understand that you should be promoting the traffic
exchange first before promoting your work at home business. These are
the people who often do not have a real marketing plan for their
business and follow a short term vision of making money online
–
lots of it and fast. They may find some initial success, however this
is short-lived as their efforts are usually unsustainable. Eventually,
many will be left disappointed in their home business venture.
On the contrary, having good planning that follows a business marketing
plan and tracking your results is a good, sound business practice. You
can start by joining many good traffic exchanges, perhaps about 10 as a
start growing to as many as 40 eventually when your home business
grows. Your initial strategy after joining them should be to build as
many referral downlines as humanly possible. Downlines are those people
who join you in the same traffic exchange. Many traffic exchanges have
their own rules, but most of them have unlimited downline tiers for you.
Unfortunately, some marketers in your downline may not become your
serious business partners. I would dare say if you can get a 10% good
people who actively promote and build your lower tier downlines, this
would be a fair result. So try to set some achievable targets like
building 300 people in your downline within the next 6 months. If you
focus on growing this downline, eventually you will succeed and begin
to experience a massive amount of traffic visiting your site.
Use The Right Business Tools
In order to see the light of your well-conceived marketing plan or
strategy, you do need to find good home business tools to achieve your
result. One of the best traffic generating programs that you can join
is Traffic Tornado, which has 28 different traffic exchanges under its
wings. This unique downline referral builder allows promoting several
programs together. Besides building traffic faster, it lets you extend
your marketing reach to a wider audience. Promoting these programs
generates traffic from the activity of members that you introduce.
Download and use a software called Mozilla Firefox. It is a very
powerful and easy to use web browser, which has the ability to open
multiple sites and windows inside a single browser task. The great
thing about this program is that multiple pages can be saved as a group
and reopened together (your
start page addresses). You'll be able to surf with 10 of your traffic
exchanges at the same time. Using this method, a surfer can easily
generate a thousand hit credits within an hour. I am sure this would be
a real encouragement too if you are just starting a home business.
Building An Opt-in List
Traffic Exchanges can help you grow your leads and opt-in list for your
home business. There are two good ways to do this by introducing Splash
Page and Squeeze Page.
Splash Page
Splash pages are fast loading pages designed to get better results
using the traffic exchanges. Remember always that the person viewing
your page is primarily concerned with generating traffic to their site
and want to do so in as little time as possible. If you have a great
big long page with your offer no matter how well written the odds are
against you. You need to do something creative that will grab their
attention quickly.
Squeeze Page
A squeeze page is used like a splash page but with an email capture
form on it from an auto responder. The best way is to find a product or
write an email series to give away to get them to join up to your list.
From Leads To Customers
If you have a system to convert leads into customers, traffic exchanges
can be an excellent low cost addition to your marketing portfolio. When
properly used, you can generate leads at a low cost.
In conclusion, you can see how a traffic exchange, if used properly,
can really help your Work At Home Business reach greater heights. If
only more people take the trouble to understand it a little better,
there would be lesser internet marketers proclaiming that traffic
exchanges do not work.
4 Simple Techniques To Make Traffic Exchanges Work For You
Let's face it the majority of traffic you receive from online traffic
exchanges is junk. It's mostly users who only want to earn credits
while giving nothing in return. Most of the time the people who view
your pages don't even look at it! However, I've been using traffic
exchanges effectively for the last year using a few systems I've
developed. Read on for more information...
Create Individual Squeeze Pages To Build Your List
If you are in to internet marketing then you absolutely must have a
list! It is especially important if you are marketing only to online
income seekers.
I've found that when I take the time to make a squeeze page with the
traffic exchanges site name and letting the traffic exchange users know
how joining my list will increase their exchange credits my response
rate is through the roof!
I typically make a standard landing page but I'll include the exchanges
name in the headline. As always, I'll give out something of value for
free for joining my list.
This has worked for me time and again. I can chalk up to 600 extra
subscribers from this technique exclusively.
Create Individual Pages To Promote Other Traffic Exchanges
What better way is there to get tons of traffic exchange credits then
referring others? Most traffic exchanges will earn for you on multiple
levels. This means that you will earn a percentage of credits when your
referral earns credits. This can stack up quickly and earn you a nice
stream of residual traffic.
Another great way to utilize free traffic exchanges is to create
individual squeeze pages that promote other traffic exchanges you're a
member of. It's a great way to virally increase your downline while at
the same time building a nice stash of free traffic credits.
It's easy to do this. All you need to do is create an individual
landing page for each exchange you're a member of. You have to make
sure that each landing page is promoting a different traffic exchange.
Also don't forget to include in the headline the name of the traffic
exchange the landing page is being promoted in.
Promote Relevant Free Offers
It is easy to see that most people surfing exchanges are freebie
seekers. The best offers to direct them to are related free offers.
Promoting programs like Instant Buzz or Free Advertising Blog is a
great sell for any traffic exchange. It is generally a waste of time to
promote anything that requires an initial investment.
Using these techniques I've managed to increase my overall income by a
sizable amount.
How To Generate 600 Traffic Exchange Credits Per Hour
Have you found yourself wanting to surf more sites but have to wait
until the timer counts down before you can go to the next site? Ever
wondered what else you can do while you wait? As you know, the only way
you can get more credits and visitors to your site is by surfing more
sites.
Why spend long hours surfing when you can get more done in one hour.
After discovering this method, it will be totally up to you, if you
want to surf longer. More surfing increases traffic to your site. This
method will sure cut down on the time you've been spending in the past.
Yes I do know how it feels when you have to wait for the timer to count
down and your thinking about a number of other things you can be doing.
If you're like me, you're looking for the fastest way possible to get
the job done. If you believe time is money, the faster you get traffic
coming to your site then the faster you will get money to your account.
I know you wouldn't mind getting you checks coming in a bit faster.
How will this benefit you? How does paying your bills on time sound? Or
having the money to buy your next car cash? One more thing before I
move on, owning your home faster than you thought. I know sounds even
better. Now let's get to the how. First you need to sign up with a
minimum of 5 traffic exchange sites? What is traffic exchange? A free
traffic exchange offers website owners the ability to promote their
websites or affiliate marketing campaigns for free, or at very low cost.
The objective is to surf around other members websites, and for each
viewing, you get so many of your own URLs and banners added into the
rotation for other members to view. You must view the site for 10-20
seconds before you can move on. There are hundreds, if not thousands of
free traffic exchanges online today. When you would have completed the
registration process on your first account, go ahead and submit your
home business or affiliate squeeze pages or sites that you want to
drive traffic to. Bear in mind some of the traffic exchange sites allow
you to submit more sites than the other. Choose what is beneficial to
you. Even though you may only be able to submit 3 sites compared to 5,
take note of the membership total.
A membership of 50,000 may be beneficial than 16,000. What happens here
is you have more fresh eyes to view your site. This is for the free
membership level but if you decide to upgrade then the benefits
increase. In some cases you can submit unlimited sites. With the first
traffic exchange site open, click on the open a new tab button on your
web browser toolbar to open a new page. This will be for your second
traffic exchange site. Do the same set up as the first then repeat
until you have at least five exchange sites set up. Don't forget to
bookmark all tabs for the next time you surf. Go back to the first
exchange site to begin surfing the next page. While the timer is
counting down, switch to the second site to begin surfing. Continue
this method until you get to exchange site number five, then repeat
cycle alternating between tabs. Do this for one hour or as long as you
desire.
Save to your favorites or bookmark any sites that may interest you in
order for you to view again when you are through surfing. Here's what
it would look like if you surfed 5 traffic exchange sites for one hour
compare the difference with this new method: 15 second timer = 1 site
2:1 ratio = (every 2 sites you visit you get 1 visitor, some sites are
1:1) 60 secs.(1 minute) = 4 sites
60 min. (1 hr.) = 240 sites
240 Ã- 5 (traffic exchange sites) = 1,200 sites
1,200 ÷2 = 600 credits
Whether you are a newbie to internet marketing or a seasoned marketer
this is a great free advertising method to generate more leads and
promote your online home business. I challenge you to do this for the
next 7 days and watch the difference. Good success and happy surfing.
Traffic Exchange Profits - Turn Your Traffic Into Cash Flow!
Are you tired of not making any money online no matter how many
different programs you try? Would you like a fool proof way to make a
steady income online? Why don’t you participate in a traffic
exchange? Traffic exchanges are one of the most effective ways to make
money online as long as you do it the right way.
A traffic exchange is website service that enables you to view someones
website, and others in turn view yours. You earn credits when you view
someones site, and you use those credits to have others view your site.
Traffic is the lifeblood of your website. Whatever your site does or
doesn't do, without traffic it will not work! So lets discuss how you
can use traffic exchanges to make money online.
Traffic Exchange Tip 1 The Best Use of Traffic Exchanges
Many Internet marketers say that traffic exchanges don't work. It is
probably because they are not using them right. Most people (maybe this
includes you) make the mistake of promoting affiliate pages or some
kind of sales page. This never works, because people are surfing to
earn credits and not buy something. You need to catch their attention
very fast and offer them something they could use to build their
business.
Traffic Exchange Tip 2 What Should I Promote
The best pages to promote in a traffic exchange are splash or squeeze
pages (opt-in page). They must load quickly and be above the fold. You
need to offer something of value to the surfer so they will want to
visit your website and either opt-in to your mailing list of get your
free offer. Make sure you grab their attention with your page!
Traffic Exchange Tip 3 How Do I Make Money
In order to make money using a traffic exchange you will need to surf
enough to have your page shown around 100 times a day. If you are using
a squeeze page to gather email information you should have your
autoresponder set up so that you are promoting your products that pay
you. You will need to build up some trust first and then your list will
buy from you. You can surf about 2 hours a day and build up 100 credits
pretty easy.
When properly used traffic exchanges can earn you a lot of money and
help build your online business. Reach out and make sure that traffic
gets to your site. Traffic exchange is the way to do it.

Almost all
traffic exchange programs are free, although many of them offer special features to paid
members and offer credits for purchase.Almost all traffic exchange
programs encourage users to build their own referral networks, which in turn
increases the referrers' amount of credits.
The traffic generated in a
traffic exchange can be leveraged by using a downline builder to assist the
user in building a referral network in the many different traffic
exchanges.
In practice, traffic
exchange programs are generally used by small
business owners or marketers who either want free advertising or use
the exchange programs for low-budget advertisement campaigns.
-History
: Traffic Exchanges date back to the beginning of the web and were
primarily used by organizations to share sites between
employees.Viewers would rate pages in a similar fashion to the now
popular social bookmarking phenomenon. When interesting websites were
hard to find a traffic exchange for an organisation new to the web
proved an invaluable tool.
Circa 1994
traffic exchanges moved from corporate intranets to the web.
In an effort to build communities the concept of rating pages was
replaced with rewarding members for viewing.
It was 1996
before traffic exchanges began to charge for traffic and
around this time the concept changed from a tool for locating
interesting sites to a commercial one.This change in direction resulted
in increased popularity at the expense of the content which is now
almost exclusively commerce.
-Traffic
Exchange vs. Bounce Rate :Most of people use Traffic
Exchange programs to increase their site visit rate. Traffic Exchange
programs offer both the Auto and Manual Surf options with a timing of
10 to 60 seconds. An 'autosurf' program requires no human intervention
to rotate the sites in the database, and is used primarily to inflate
the total number of site hits. This practice is rather controversial as
it may skew the results of website popularity. People's main reason
behind joining a Traffic Exchange program is a theory based on Search
Engine ranking. The more visits, the more the ranking will increase but
it is now thought that such techniques are outdated and do not
influence SEO and SERP ranking. A factor which may negatively influence
the ranking is the Bounce Rate. If a website or blog has a high bounce
rate then it will be considered that people are not interested in the
content.The Bounce Rate is calculated by the average rate a visitor
stayed on the site. So whereas the Traffic Exchange sites increase the
site visit rate, on the other hand they also increase the bounce rate.
-Using
Traffic Exchanges Effectively : The key to using traffic
exchanges is understanding that the person will only be viewing your
site for 10–20 seconds. Rather than sending the person to
your website, you should be sending them to a specific advertisement
designed for traffic exchanges. The most effective are squeeze pages,
which have a simple headline, description, and opt-in form for an
autoresponder. Then the surfer can easily type their email address in
and receive more
information
about your product or services at a later time.
-Adsense
on
Traffic Exchanges
: Google has specifically stated not to
use Adsense on Traffic Exchanges.If you wish to advertise your website
on a traffic exchange, but also have Adsense ads, simply create
separate pages for advertising in traffic exchanges that do not have
the Adsense ads.
Are Traffic Exchanges a Scam?
Traffic Exchanges aren't for everybody, you know? Who else wants to
multiply the hits received by Traffic Exchange sites? Fellow Surfers,
one of the best kept secrets ever: The Traffic Exchange Hit System
Did I grab your attention? Well, let talk about Traffic Exchanges.
Traffic Exchange can be immensely profitable, but it can also be truly
unforgiving for those who don't know what works and what doesn't. This
article is about getting you on the right side of the curve, using the
techniques that I learnt the *hard way*.
So, which is the winning strategy?
Your business URL's should really take second place to start out with.
Yes, that is. You DON'T have to advertise your business URL's on
traffic exchange. If you do it, you are out! So, what should you
advertise? There are two options here:
1) Advertise other traffic exchange.
By concentrating on surfing and advertising your Traffic Exchanges you
will in a few short months have so many credits pouring in you can do
less surfing and more marketing and advertising with your other
business URL's, these credits will mostly be made up from your
downlines. If you dedicate to this you will build major downlines in
all your traffic exchanges earning you more credits than you will ever
need (some exchanges allow you to sell or cash in your credits) and
when members upgrade or purchase additional credits you will either
receive credits and/or cash also. You will also have the time to start
out with brand new exchanges and other businesses – by this
time
your memberships and downlines will grow really fast whatever you are
promoting! I found out the hard way and learnt from this mistake. I
concentrated first on my business URL's! What I did not realize is that
I should have viewed the traffic exchanges as a business also and not
just an advertising medium, because as your traffic downline grows in
each exchange so will your credits and cash, and when it comes down to
advertising… credits are as good as cash any day. But as an
example if you are a member of 20 traffic exchanges and you have 10
upgraded members in each (200 members) giving you say $1 in commission
per member each month (check individual member sites for details on
referral bonuses and payouts) that is tidy some ($200 each month they
remain upgraded). Stick with it and you may find that you are earning
more from your traffic exchanges all put together than your business
URL you are promoting in the early days!
2) Advertise a splash page to build your list.

Why Traffic Exchanges Suck
The theory of a traffic exchange is great- you need traffic, they
provide traffic. Signing up for a traffic exchange means you will be
getting more traffic all right, but there is no guarantee that any of
it will translate into sales. Traffic exchanges make no sales
guarantees, and they don't much mention your actually making money
after getting this new traffic. So why do people join them?
When signing up with a traffic exchange, you are agreeing to visit
other sites in that exchange network. For doing this, you will then get
traffic from other members directed to your own site. So, site owners
are looking at your site, browsing around, they may see something they
like and buy it. Or, they may think your site is a great idea and
mention it on their own site. Of course, in reality, it never seems to
quite work that way.
Large sites don't have much reason to join traffic exchanges and look
at other people's sites like this. Small businesses with fairly new
sites do. So guess who joins traffic exchanges? Any advertising you
might get on a site from being seen on a traffic exchange is going to
be on a small, low budget site, which likely won't bring much traffic
your way even if it does happen.
In addition, many traffic exchange systems are set up on a cheesy
automatic timer so that you don't have to spend too long looking at any
one site in order to get in your quota. The time each site is given is
usually less than a minute, giving you such in-depth exposure to those
small, beginning websites. Just imagine the business that will come
your way from all of that.
Think about your own reasons for wanting to join up with a traffic
exchange. Is it to seek out new life and new civilizations? To boldly
find new websites and buy lots of stuff from them? Heck no. People want
to join because it is cheap, or free, and you don't have to spend much
time looking at those other sites in order to bring traffic to your
own. So how many of the other guys do you suppose join the exchange to
buy things from other people?
Most traffic exchanges work on a credit system- you have to earn
credits to get viewers to your site. You earn credits by looking at
sites, then those credits are used to send viewers to yours. And the
quota is usually not one to one. Sometimes you have to look at two or
three sites in order to get one person directed to your site. So,
members are going to try to look at as many sites as possible to get
their own traffic numbers up. Seeing as many sites as possible,
combined with the short times they have to view each site, it is pretty
unlikely that any one site will stand out enough to ever return to. So,
if you want untargeted traffic for no real reasons, traffic exchanges
are terrific. Otherwise, traffic exchanges suck.
3 Tips on Complementing Traffic Exchange Features
Traffic exchange is surely a very effective way to generate traffic to
a site. It could also be a good way to have potential customers, which
is a great challenge. Most of the traffic drawn from traffic exchanges
is from Internet Marketers as well who just wants to have back traffic
from the program. For this reason, it is a necessity to formulate a
strategy to complement the features of traffic exchanges. This will
also help increase the possibility of getting traffic conversions form
the traffic generated by traffic exchanges aside from having streaming
traffic.
1. Make a squeeze page as a landing page. Having a list is vital for an
Internet Marketer. It serves as a library of future contacts or
potential customers. These people are ones who has high possibility of
making a purchase, therefore adding up to the sales.
Considering that the surfers are mostly internet marketers, the offer
on the squeeze page must be of their interest. Could be about having
extra credits when leaving their details, credits upon purchase, or
whatever package that would compel them to leave their contact details.
This is good as long as it is a real offer.
The list that will be created through the squeeze page could be used to
send them some updates for up-selling and other offers. This list will
be very useful for this matter. It also creates a bigger probability of
having customers, and loyal buying customers in the future.
2. Set up pages promoting traffic exchange programs. This technique can
be done with several traffic exchange programs as long as membership is
active. Referral bonuses can only be credited to active members.
In doing this, referrals will come its way. Traffic exchange gives
bonus credits for every referral under a member’s name. Aside
from that, a certain percentage gets earned when the referrals earn
credits whether it is through referring other people or surfing other
member’s sites. This is surely a great source of streaming
traffic.
There could be a state when a member with lots of referrals does not
need to browse on sites to gain credits because the referrals will do
it. So time for traffic exchange browsing can be lessened but the
benefits will still be acquired.
3. Include free offer packages on the landing page. Since most of the
traffic directed to the landing page are internet marketers, then the
free offers to be given must be related to internet marketing. An
example could be free advertising, and something similar to it.
Internet marketers wouldn’t just go for an additional
investment
in a second. Free offers help entice them. Being compelled to take part
of the free offer would lead them to leave their contact details. In
the end, every internet marketer hooked to have the package will be
added to the list that could be used for future promotions.
Traffic exchange may have its flaws as some say so, but there are a lot
of ways to make it work for an online business owner. It surely brings
huge traffic to a site which is one of the best benefits an internet
marketer can get from it. Managing it properly leads to utilizing the
traffic exchange program very well as a powerful marketing tool.
How To Get More Traffic To Your Website Using Traffic Exchanges
Many people who join traffic exchanges are website owners looking for
free traffic. There are also many affiliate marketers who join traffic
exchanges because they want to drive traffic to their affiliate links
as well as internet marketers who want to increase the number of their
opt-in e-mail subscribers. There are hundreds of traffic exchanges on
the Internet...The traffic exchanges who have the most members usually
provide the best results.
A traffic exchange is a service that enables you to visit a member's
website, and in exchange other members of the traffic exchange will
visit your website. You will earn credits when you view someone's
website, and then those credits will be used to have the other members
of the traffic exchange visit your website. Most traffic exchanges will
allow you to advertise more than one URL so it's possible to promote
websites, affiliate links and opt-in landing pages with one account.
Most of them also allow you to refer others and earn traffic credits
automatically from their efforts.
There are 2 main types of Traffic Exchanges: Manual Surf and Auto Surf.
With manual surf, you will need to click on a button to visit the next
website in rotation and earn credits. With auto surf, you watch the
websites on your computer as they appear automatically every 15 or 30
seconds and you earn credits automatically without having to lift a
finger. Although both of these traffic exchanges will bring visitors to
your website, the use of a manual exchange is much more likely to bring
visitors who will actually read the content of a website and then
subsequently take a desired action such as making a purchase or
subscribing to an e-mail newsletter.
Some Traffic Exchanges have an option to upgrade or "Pro Membership".
Pro members receive extra traffic credits, more benefits and even
commissions from the traffic exchange.
Increase Your MLM Business Profit Using Traffic Exchange Programs
Network marketing opportunities
for enterprising and innovation-savvy marketers are galore.
Advertisements for network marketing opportunities inundate the web.
The thrust in the realm of network marketing is underpinned on optimal
exposure of the business opportunities. As such any marketer keen on
getting optimum results will strive to join as many traffic exchange
programs as available.
But what is a traffic exchange program?
A traffic exchange program is a third party facility that provides a
service for publishers or webmasters to exchange web traffic. In the
past, the auto surf concept was the most popular model of traffic
exchange that uses a rotating banner. At present there has been a surge
of numerous traffic exchange programs available on the Internet.
In this design the users of the traffic exchange programs are required
to 'browse' or 'surf' sites or view ads in exchange for a rebate of web
traffic to their own sales pages. In order to be effective with traffic
exchanges, administers normally require the purchase of a 'paid'
package in order for them to drive more traffic to your sites or to
have your ads appear more frequently.
Here are I have listed a number of sites that you can join in order to
get free traffic:
Needless to mention the kill in such drives is encapsulated in the
capacity attained through meaningful presence in as many appropriate
web interfaces as available.
Below are some of several ways that can be exploited to maximize
traffic flow from these sites.
- Always measure your clicks through the rates for your ads. Tweaking
your Ad copy is one way of increasing the rates through clicks. In this
facility you must perform some split testing for your campaign to know
if the ad is doing well or not. A comparison of two ads will enable you
to choose the winner and eliminate the dark horse.
- Advisedly you must take time each day to click on other people's ads.
This can earn you significant credits and will result in your own ads
appearing on other people's home pages more frequently. If lack of time
is the inhibiting factor here then someone must be outsourced and paid
to click on a number of ads in order to increase your credits.
- Aim and sum up your entire business opportunity within one or two
lines as you are striving to compose an ad that is definitely attention
grabbing.
- When you start generating some revenue from your site then you can
consider the feasibility and expedience of upgrading to a premium
package as a strategic move of raking in more traffic to your site.
At the end of the day the traffic exchange programs are a numbers game.
The more frequent your ads appear, the better are your chances of
generating significant leads into your sales funnel.
Traffic Exchanges - Great For List Building
Traffic exchanges seem to be a flocking ground for every kind of online
business imaginable. The concept of visiting other marketers\' sites in
exchange for free credits which will allow you to display your site to
\'like\' minded consumers/entrepreneurs is wonderful.
Many online marketing enthusiasts are cash strapped when it comes to
paid advertising. The ability to generate traffic to your website for
no cost is attractive and popular. A traffic exchange offers any online
business just that opportunity. Like many things however these sites
are not without flaws. A common complaint is the amount of time you
have to spend \'surfing\' for the credits needed to generate a
respectable amount of traffic to your website. Another is that this
traffic is not very targeted.
Let\'s discuss here what it is we need to do to effectively use both
our time and our results when attempting to increase traffic to our own
websites using a traffic exchange.
Firstly the claim that \'surfing\' for credits is time consuming is
accurate. Now the question is how can we better use this time.
By enrolling at more then just one exchange you can align them on
different tabs of your browser. When you open them simultaneously you
can now skip from one exchange to the next when you\'re surfing for
credits. This will allow for you to multiple the results of surfing
efforts within the same amount of time.
Firefox and IE 7 both have this multiple tab feature so there\'s no
need to purchase or add any additional software to accomplish this.
Now we have to face the issue of the lack of targeted traffic you
receive from these exchange sites. Actually we\'re going to alter our
marketing strategy concerning what it is we\'re attempting to
accomplish for our online business.
Targeted traffic is considered website traffic that is most likely
interested in making a purchase of the product you offer, right? Well
the pool of \'participants\' found at most exchanges is very mixed. It
would be unreasonable to expect to find potential customers that fit
the profile you would need to buy your \'unique\' product. Here\'s
where we shift our marketing strategy to better fit the audience we\'re
advertising to.
Instead of trying to sell our particular products to this audience our
attention needs to be more focused on list building. By setting up a
landing page and driving the traffic to that instead of our sales page
you will have a better chance of collecting names.
Of course you\'ll want to offer a free gift in exchange for their
contact information so make it something they find useful.
Assuming most people at a traffic exchange are interested in either
making money online or generating more traffic for their business we
can now better target their needs.
Now you are marketing your landing page with a free giveaway more
directly related to the wants or needs of the audience found at an
exchange site. In return you\'re building a list in which you can
direct your online marketing efforts towards in the future.
Traffic exchanges can be frustrating and time consuming unless you
change your expectations and the way you work them. By better
coordinating your efforts and focusing on list building, you will find
that these exchanges are well worth the time invested.
Solving The Traffic Exchange Riddle
Anyone in the internet marketing field has used, or at the very least
is familiar to some degree with, traffic exchanges. If you are not very
well informed, look them up - you'll likely as not read many horror
stories about them.
However, a traffic exchange can be a great thing for your business
provided you know how to effectively make use of it. It's a simple
enough concept - you look at others' websites and they in turn look at
yours.
A page view is counted as about ten seconds of exposure. However, this
is not nearly enough if the page features a lot of multimedia content.
Ten seconds won't be enough time for the page to finish loading. Don't
use a full sales page or affiliate page. In the small amount of time
you'll get, a blank page or one that is only partially loaded does
nothing for your business.
A traffic exchange is best used to gather leads. Nothing else, just
collect email addresses and names for future marketing efforts. A
capture page which loads quickly and has one eye catching feature will
work to your best advantage - you can make even a web surfer pressed
for time take notice of your page. A fast loading lead capture page
with one bequeathing feature will generally make even the most
impatient surfer take note.
What you want is a page with a concise message, no scrolling necessary
and which loads fast. This is what will work best for you in a traffic
exchange. Once that surfer's attention has been grabbed and they opt in
to your list, they have become a lead and you may email them via your
autoresponder.
Of course, this is exactly what you want. You can then promote your
offers to leads any time. Simply put, you need to set up a good lead
capture page - then you must get to the task of getting traffic to your
page.
Firefox is the tool of choice here. Multiple tabs are tailor made for
traffic exchange servers. You can open several tabs and move from one
to the other, generating hits from several traffic exchange servers at
once. It works like a charm.
You can even try to build a downline in these traffic exchanges - you
will then receive some of the traffic they generate while using the
exchange. If you can get others to direct traffic to your page for you,
this means more traffic and less work for you: a winning combination!
If you have several lead capture pages up and running, you are going to
need a rotator. A lot of traffic exchanges accept rotators, but not all
of them - check with the exchange for what they allow.
There is another issue with this continued surfing - some surfers can
simply not hold themselves back from opting into a slew of lead capture
pages and get bombarded with email and offers from all of these pages.
You need to teach yourself to ignore all of these offers facing you and
go on with the business of getting more traffic to your site. This is
why you're surfing; stick to the task at hand.
There is even software out there which permits you to submit a URL to a
rotator. In these setups, hits are purchased in bulk from a variety of
traffic exchanges and all of the submitted URLs benefit from this
promotional tactic. This is perhaps not as efficient as some other
methods, but it does save a lot of time.
Follow these simple steps: use a traffic exchange to find leads using
fast loading lead capture pages with opt-in lists being directed to
your autoresponder. Then either buy or surf for traffic. This system
still works very well, is simple to use and will reward your efforts.
Share More and Get Profitable With Traffic Exchange
The amount of traffic your site receives will determine the volume of
sales your site makes. This is especially important if you are a small
startup that wishes to make its presence felt. Through traffic exchange
you can achieve dramatic increases in the number of visitors to your
site.
How does it work?
Traffic exchange works on the same principle as link exchange, except
that here you are corresponding with other sites to gain traffic. The
idea revolves around a simple concept – you share and receive
traffic from other websites. Thus within the same network, visitors can
check out information from your site as well as the site who is a part
of the traffic exchange program with you.
Why it really works
One reason why traffic exchange has stood the test of time is because
of the fact that it is free. Yes, today there are hordes of sites that
are willing to exchange traffic with your site for absolutely no cost.
Best of all you can achieve thousands of hits per day through such
traffic exchange programs.
The newer exchange programs
There are the free sites and then there are the paid ones. While the
obvious choice would be to opt for the free traffic exchange programs,
it really isn’t the smartest thing to do. Usually choosing
such
services will result in hordes of traffic - but who do nothing. So what
that means is you will get plenty of clicks on your site but hardly any
sales. This is why paid traffic exchange programs work better. They are
far more targeted, get you traffic that’s already interested
in
your products and thus you get to increase sales. Nowadays you can even
buy clicks for a fraction of the cost and also get cash in lieu of the
credits earned.
Promotions and credits
With some of the more recent traffic exchange programs you can now even
send in your website promotions and ads into the network while hunting
for other sites in the program. Your site gets to earn credits while
you keep yourself occupied with games and other amusements.
Backlinks and popularity
The good thing about traffic exchange programs is their ability to get
you plenty of backlinks to your website. As your reciprocal sites gain
in popularity, your site too gets more visibility and prominence
online. This results in better search engine page rankings, as well as
more clicks to your site. What’s more, you also get to place
your
site better in the free search engine listings.
Trial and error
Just like any other marketing tool, traffic exchange programs too have
their share of scams. Therefore, the key to success is entirely through
trial and error. Some exchange programs have proven to be very
effective in terms of sales conversions while others have been a waste
of time for many businesses. You can analyze which works for you
through patience and monitoring the performance.
Tips For Success With Traffic Exchanges
There are several things to do after creating a website and the most
important is to get targeted traffic. You have to register with traffic
exchanges and then log in to earn "credits". You may be given one-half
or 1 credit for browsing other websites for 20-30 seconds. At the same
time you specify your own website and it is similarly displayed to
other users on the same traffic exchanges. Every time your website is
shown for 20-30 seconds you account will be deducted for one-half or 1
credit as the traffic exchange charges. Extra credits are also earned
by referring more members or they may be purchased outright for cash.
Traffic exchange websites let you specify which types of websites you
wish to view by selecting categories. Similarly you get to specify the
category for your own website. This brings in targeted traffic, in
other words it brings visitors who are already interested in the
product category you specify. If you can make the website look good
then there is a good chance that viewers will stay and even make a
purchase.
Offer something for free in order to retain visitors. It may be an
eBook, free report, an audio or a video clip. Traffic exchanges are not
voluntary. Most members are there because they have no choice and every
20-30 seconds they see a different sales pitch. Offering something for
free with no hint of selling is a good way to distinguish yourself.
Lead capturing is the next crucial step and you must have an
autoresponder or similar mechanism to let people leave their email
address so you may contact them later on. Attach your freebie to your
lead capture system. Many e-mails sent by autoresponders
are often caught by spam filters or placed on junk mail folders so it
is recommended to choose an autoresponder company with a high email
deliverability rate.
Make your website copy fresh and interesting because most traffic
exchange surfers are suffering from advertisement overload. If it looks
or reads the same it will just get ignored. Also you webpage should
load quickly due to the fact that traffic exchange members will usually
not spend than 10-30 seconds looking at it before the traffic exchange
allows them to earn their traffic credit and proceed to the next site.
For that reason, traffic exchange owners generally recommend the use of
splash pages or squeeze pages.
Always prefer traffic exchanges that allow you to specify more than one
website and advertisement option. Running multiple advertisements will
significantly improve your chances of success. You can also compare
different ads to see which works best.
Getting traffic to your website is only a part of your overall
marketing strategy but it is the first and hence everything else
depends on it. If you are a network marketer then you could be earning
some money just referring new members to traffic exchange websites.
Traffic Exchanges and Their Effective Use
The term "traffic exchange" can mean different things in the realm of
internet marketing, but for the sake of this article, it refers to the
many "surf for traffic" or "auto surf" web sites. A traffic exchange
web site consists of a number of free or paid members who earn system
credits by viewing other members' web sites. The overall idea is that
when enough people view a member's site, that member will make sales,
gain opt-in leads, obtain downline sign-ups, or all of the above.
To sign up with a traffic exchange web site, submit username and
password information, some personal information and often a primary web
site. Most sites will use email confirmation for account activation to
ensure the use of a real email address. Once a member it's time to set
up the web site urls that are going to viewed by other members on the
exchange as they surf for credits. Many sites provide free credits on
signup so that the new member's site can begin to be viewed
immediately. When a web site is setup for viewing, credits can be
assigned to site which will dictate how many times the site will be
shown in the network. Some exchanges allow only one site at a time, but
most allow for many and even have an auto-distribution feature with can
evenly distribute remaining credits to all of a member's active sites
that are established in the network.
Most traffic exchanges have both free and pay memberships. Some even
have different levels of pay memberships. It is easy to get started
with a free membership, but there are many incentives for upgrading.
One incentive is that paid members often get a better surf ratio. A
surf ratio is the number of sites that have to be viewed by a member in
order for their site to be viewed one time. For example, a 3:1 ratio
means that the member must view three different sites in order for
their site to be viewed once. Most pay memberships offer a 1:1 ratio,
but some go further and offer 1:2 or 1:3 ratios, meaning that a paid
member need only view one site in order to have his site view two or
three times! Surf ratio is an important factor to evaluate when
deciding in which exchange one should upgrade to paid status.
Another advantage of paid membership is it often comes with discounts
on purchased credits. Most exchanges sell credits to people who have
more money to spend than time to surf. Purchased credits, like earned
credits, can be assigned to one's web sites in the exchange. A paid
member will often get a big break on the price of purchased credits. In
addition, most traffic exchanges reward their paid members with free
month credit allocations. This ensures a constant exposure to their web
sites.
There are ways to use traffic exchanges that can be very effective.
Instead of using the main page of a web site that has lots of
information on it, create a "splash" or "capture" page. This type of
page is simple in design but attractive and attention-grabbing and it's
main goal is to get a user to click on a link that takes them to a
sales page. Be sure that the link opens up a new browser window so that
the user's surfing is not interrupted. Another use for splash pages is
to capture a user's name and email address for an opt-in email list.
Offer a free eBook, promotion code or other incentive in exchange the
surfer's sign-up. When creating splash or capture pages remember that
most of the members of the traffic exchange are business owners,
webmasters or internet marketers, so offer something that would entice
this audience.
When utilized properly, traffic exchanges serve as a power tool in the
internet marketer's tool chest. When many are utilized, especially with
some upgrades, good, consistent results are very likely.
Are Traffic Exchanges A Waste Of Time?
This is a question I see so often in marketing forums, and annoyingly
the people who respond to such a question predominantly agree that
traffic exchanges are a waste of time. In this article I want to put
the record straight.
The fact is that traffic exchanges DO work, and ARE an effective way of
promoting your website. You just need to know how to use them correctly.
There's a common belief that traffic exchanges will only deliver
untargeted, almost worthless traffic to your website. To some extent
this is true. In my experience if you try to sell anything on traffic
exchanges, whether it's your own product or an affiliate product, then
yes maybe they are a waste of time.
However, what you need to do to get results from traffic exchanges is
to create and promote a squeeze page to capture the visitors' name and
email address. Offer a free product or report, for example, as an
incentive for people to sign up to your list. Once they're subscribed
and have opted-in to receive email messages from you, then you can
begin building a relationship with them and earning their trust, before
promoting products to them in due course and making money this way (you
should provide good content in your emails as well, and not just
product offers).
In addition to this you will get optimum results if your site is
related in some way to making money online or getting more traffic, for
example, as this is what most users of traffic exchanges are
predominantly interested in.
To get the most success, ie the most number of subscribers to join your
list, you need to maximize the hits you receive from the various
traffic exchanges that you are using. There are several ways to do this
(other than surfing for hours on end). You could simply buy credits,
which is fine, but I personally prefer to cross-promote the various
traffic exchanges and build a downline of referrals in each one, who
earn me credits automatically every time they surf, eliminating the
need to do a lot of surfing myself.
For example, I use crazybrowser which allows you to have multiple tabs
open, and provides easy scrolling between each one, making it very easy
to surf multiple exchanges at once. What I like to do is promote one
exchange at a time (my referral page) on all the different exchanges
and build a nice downline, and then promote another and so on until I
have a nice downline in each one.
Once I have done this I can start to promote my own squeeze page and
use the credits earned by my downline to receive hits to my site
automatically. I do surf myself as well on occasions but it's good to
know that you will receive credits even if you don't have the time to
surf yourself.
Using these methods I'm adding subscribers to my list on a daily basis,
and although there may be a case for arguing that traffic exchange
users are not the most profitable subscribers to have on your list,
I've found that some of my most profitable subscribers, ie those that
spend the most money, are those who originally signed up from a traffic
exchange.
To conclude then, in answer to the original question posed, traffic
exchanges are most definitely NOT a waste of time. The people who claim
they are are simply not using them correctly. If you promote a squeeze
page which encourages people to sign up to your list, then you should
attract a steady stream of new subscribers, who could earn you some
nice profits in the long term.
Traffic Exchanges - Are They Worth the Effort?
There are advertisements, articles and more that all state how great
these traffic exchanges are. But are they really worth the time and
effort they require? Will you really get a lot of traffic and if you do
get traffic, is it good, purchasing traffic?
There are many traffic exchanges; TS25, Traffichits, Traffic Swarm,
TrafficG, etc... If you can think of a subject there is probably a
traffic exchange named after it - there's even Mafia Traffic and Dead
hits. The basic idea is that you click on a website and watch it for
10-30 seconds and for every 1-3 sites you view 1 person will view your
site. This can be quite tedious as to get a sizable amount of traffic
you must view an awful lot of websites.
Most of these traffic exchanges have come up with an upsell from the
free traffic exchange. For a set fee around $10-$30 per month you get
1,000 or so free credits and a quicker timer or a better conversion 1:2
instead of 1:3 or similar. The problem here is that most of this
traffic is seen as robotic by the search engines so it will not help
much in your ranking. This traffic is also people just like you trying
to get traffic. Very, very few will have any interest in your product
or site and most will click right through to the next screen. So yours
doesn't even fully load - in other words they won't even see your
site. Yes, there are sales made through the traffic exchanges, but it
is so low of a conversion that you must really visit tens of thousands
of pages for each conversion/sale.
Most traffic exchanges do have a virulence aspect built in which can
help, but just like with Mary Kay and any MLM program, only the first
program participants will reap much from this. You need a huge downline
for it to be worth your time and this can take a long time to build.
Just like Mary Kay, there are only 10 or so people per exchange getting
most of the results. The rest are basically wasting their time and
helping others (their sponsors) to get rich.
There are better ways to spend your time. Write articles and submit
them to sites like ezinearticles for maximum readership. This will give
you traffic that is virulent and long lasting. And it isn't a scam like
MLM, its just you and your site links getting all the benefits. If you
write interesting and helpful articles you will get great, targeted
traffic. Ezinearticles even has numerous pages devoted to help you
learn what to write and how to writ it to get maximum effect. You can
also do press releases and word of mouth through forums and other free
sites. In the long run you will do much better. Traffic exchanges are a
waste of time. Don't take my word for it - try them and you'll see why
I'm right.
Why Use Traffic Exchange Programs?
Traffic Exchange programs? Why would any business want to exchange
their traffic with other businesses? First off, this is not the proper
interpretation. It is only a service offered to online businesses that
have a common objective to gain more exposure for their business.
Traffic exchange programs are many and varied in their operation. Some
will let you surf the Internet as you normally would, with the only
exception being that you set your browser's start page to their default
advertising page.
Once your homepage's browser loads you earn a certain number of
advertising credits. You get additional credits for clicking on links
of other members in the program's network. You can then use these
credits for exposing your links to the network, with a chance of
potential visitors and sales.
Other traffic exchange services make your surfing experience a bit more
complex, since you would have to wait for a timer to expire in order to
be awarded credits, and while that timer counts down you are forced to
view another person's website from the network.
Many of these measures were taken by the traffic exchange programs in
an effort to minimize or eliminate cheating, since some users came up
with ways to cheat the system by using software programs that auto surf
and earn credits.
Participants to these traffic exchanges will surf the Internet with a
slight modification of how they normally would, in an effort to collect
credits.
A surfer will conclude that the less distracting from the normal
surfing experience, the more the surfer would be willing to use that
traffic exchange program. Also, the less a surfer is forced to view an
advertisement, the more targeted he/she will be for that product or
service.
For example, someone who reads a headline in a traffic exchange and
clicks on it to view the website is more targeted than someone who
views it because he/she is forced to wait for a timer to expire.
You now know what traffic exchange programs are, and how they work,
their main benefits are:
1. Free
Most traffic exchange services are free, although you can upgrade your
membership to get additional benefits in some. This means that someone
with a low or no budget can start advertising their website fast and
for no cost.
2. Targeted Traffic (for Internet Marketing)
When your product is Internet marketing related, the traffic you would
receive to your website will be somewhat targeted because it will be
people like you, who are looking for more ways to increase their online
income.
3. You can build an Opt-in list.
To do this, design your webpage to give out a freebie or a 5 part
e-course in exchange for an email address. You can then follow up with
these leads and market to them in the future.
4. Recruit affiliates
If you own your product and have an affiliate program, you can recruit
affiliates to sell your product for a commission. The more people
selling your product, the more income you will make.
Traffic exchanges offer a great free way to promote your business. They
should be included in your advertising arsenal but make sure that you
leverage your time effectively.
Find a traffic exchange program that will not hinder your normal
surfing behavior, while advertising your business and you will be able
to maximize your time and effort with this free marketing tool.
How To Build Downline With
Traffic Exchange Programs
Network marketing opportunities are everywhere. You can go online and
find tons of advertisements for network marketing opportunities
scattered all over the Internet. But if you really want to maximize the
exposure of your business
opportunity, you must join as many traffic exchange programs as you can.
But what is a traffic exchange program?
A traffic exchange is third party that provides a service for
publishers or webmasters in exchange for sending traffic. In the past,
the auto surf concept was the most popular concept of traffic exchange
that uses a rotating banner. Now there are a lot of traffic exchange
programs available on the Internet.
Basically the user of the traffic exchange programs are required to
‘browse’ or ‘surf’ sites, or
view ads in
exchange for having traffic sent to their own sales pages. In order to
be truly effective with traffic exchanges, they normally require you to
purchase a ‘paid’ package in order for them to
drive more
traffic to your sites or to have your ads appear more frequently.
Here I have included
most of worth joining sites so you do not have to search anywhere in
order to get free traffic:
There are a couple of ways that you can maximize your traffic from
these sites:
- Always measure your click through rate for your ads. Tweak your Ad
Copy to increase click through rates. If you do not split test your
ads, you will not know if the ad is doing well or not. Always compare
based on two ads so that you can choose the winner and eliminate the
loser. Rinse and repeat.
- If you have the time, spend some time each day clicking on other
people’s ad. You can earn enough credits so that your own ads
will appear on other people’s home page more frequently. If
you
don’t have the time to do it, just outsource the task to
someone
and pay them to click on a number of ads in order to increase your
credits.
- Try and summarize your entire business opportunity within one or two
lines. You want to write an ad that is quite ‘attention
grabbing’.
- When you are already making some profits from your site, you have the
option to upgrade to a premium package to drive more traffic to your
site.
At the end of the day, it is all about a numbers game. The more
frequently your ads appear, the better your chance of generating leads
into your sales funnel.
7 Basic Benefits from Traffic Exchange
Traffic exchange basically means viewing others site to have the others
view one’s own site. It is a sort of advertising or site
promotion that is really inexpensive. One can actually start in it
without spending for membership fees.
The initial reason in surfing other sites within a traffic exchange
program could be the basic one. However, as time goes by there are
other benefits one can get from it aside from generating traffic to a
site.
1. Having downlines. Once a downline signs up, the chance to
communicate with him or her is open. A relationship must be developed
to gain trust, and this downline can also be included in the list of
prospects. It is not for promoting products but at least to start
building a list, which is helpful in online business.
There are traffic exchanges that allocate downlines when a certain
credit for viewing sites within the program is reached. There are
others that offer a number of downlines at a minimal cost. Aside from
getting credits, the contact details of these downlines are good to be
included in the list.
2. Watch out for some sites offering a small amount as a payment just
for viewing them. The usual offer for this starts with 1 cent but it
makes a lot of sense if the individual is really a power surfer. These
bonuses can be accumulated to purchase credits or banner and text link
ads at sometime; or just be requested as a payout.
3. Check on ad clicks. There are advertisements within traffic
exchanges that give reward just for clicking advertisements and staying
on the page for a few seconds. Increase in credits is a usual reward.
This may not be a usual offer but being keen on these would be great.
4. Keep an eye on some offers to receive emails that have links to ads.
The links in the email directs to an advertisement and once on the
page, staying there for a few seconds gives a corresponding number of
credits.
5. Use the credits earned. Make sure that the credits accumulated are
assigned to a site, a text link, or a banner ad that must be promoted.
This is the main reason in joining traffic exchange.
6. Surf regularly to increase activity points. There are traffic
exchanges that give activity points as a reward to regular surfers or
for joining forums, and newsletters. One reason for this is to gain
more credit percentage in viewing sites.
7. Continuously drive traffic to a site. Always spend time surfing to
have a stream of traffic flowing to the site. It is the initial reason
for joining traffic exchange and it must always be kept in mind aside
from the other possible benefits it can offer.
Knowing these further benefits aside from the basic reason for being a
part of a traffic exchange makes surfing more exciting. Watching out
for offers adds to the urge to browse more often to take part of the
onetime offers within the program.
How to Get More for Your Money on Traffic Exchanges
Making use of traffic exchanges is an excellent way to generate traffic
and publicise your business on a shoestring marketing budget. In this
article I will look at how you can get even better value for your money
with TE credits.
There are several ways to earn traffic exchange credits. The most
common way is to surf the traffic exchange and earn credits by viewing
other people's pages. While you can do this on a free account, it is
always worth thinking about upgrading to a professional account status
as this brings you several advantages. First of all your credit earning
ratio will be much better so you will earn more credits every time you
surf the TE. Secondly you will be given a large number of credits every
month that you maintain your pro status.
Traffic exchanges often make special offers and give away extra credits
to anybody who upgrades within a special campaign period. New TEs often
make a very nice offers so as to build their list of subscribers more
quickly. Established TE's sometimes give away free credits to celebrate
anniversaries. Other exchange owners like to run special half price or
low price/bonus credit offers. Look out for those special offers and
make a point of taking advantage of them. There is no reason why you
ever need to pay the standard price for credits.
You can also earn bonus credits after completing a certain number of
page views during a single surfing session. Get to know which TE's
offer this kind of bonus, and aim to complete the required number of
page views each time you surf that particular traffic exchange to take
advantage of the bonus.
One of the best ways to earn bonus credit is to build a downline. Every
time you recruit a new member you will probably earn a certain number
of credits, or perhaps you will be able to buy credits at a nice
discount. If the member upgrades you will be rewarded with a commission
either in cash or credit. Once your downline has grown to a certain
size you will no longer need to spend time surfing the TE in order to
generate credits.
Because TEs are free to join, even in experienced marketers can build a
downline without too much effort. One of the best ways to do that is to
join several traffic exchanges and cross promote each of them on your
other exchanges. You can expect a reasonable signup rate because you
will be advertising your TEs to a highly targeted audience - people who
use TE's!
However, you do not want to use your standard credits for this
publicity campaign. Many TE users are not aware that they receive three
types of credits on most exchanges, standard credits, banner ad
credits, and text ad credits. Reserve your standard credits for your
main offer and use the other type of credits that you receive, such as
banner credits and text ad credits to cross promote your TEs.
You can also promote your exchanges on your website and your blog. Make
a list of all the TE's you have joined, and include your affiliate
links so that it is easy for people to check your list and sign up
straight from your webpage.
By following all the tips in this article you will be able to earn
thousands of extra credits every month for your Internet marketing
campaign without having to spend hours and hours surfing the traffic
exchanges.
6 Tips On How To Use Traffic Exchanges To Build Your Business
Traffic exchanges
are wildly popular. You see them everywhere you look, but do they work?
In this article we will answer that question and discuss how you can
use traffic exchanges to build your business.
In simple terms a traffic exchange is just what it says. You exchange
clicks on ads for potential traffic. I say potential because although
your ad is being displayed that does not guarantee traffic. It just
guarantees impressions or exposure.
To get people to look at your ad and then click on it and go visit your
site takes some skill. This is how you use traffic exchanges to build
your business if you do it right.
1. You keep it very simple. The first thing you notice when you are
surfing ads for credits is that most people are promoting a sales page
and you are waiting a few seconds so you can click on the next ad. A
sales page is not simple. It is too long and most people will not read
it.
2. Promote a landing page instead. A landing page or a splash page is
short and is designed to get people to quickly give you their name and
email address. Your landing page needs a good title, a couple of
support statements, a free gift, and a short 2 line form.
3. Get a good autoresponder
and follow up with your free gift and then anything else you want to
promote. You are better off to give and give some more in the email
messages you send. Eventually you can ask for an order, but that comes
later.
4. Surf several traffic exchanges at one time. Click on one, go to the
next, go the next, and so on. Using a browser with tabs like Firefox
will help you do this quickly. Try to do 4, or 5, or 6 at a time if you
can.
5. If you do not like one traffic exchange you have joined, replace it.
Eventually you will find several that work well for you. Then work
those every day.
6. Watch your email for any specials. Different traffic exchanges will
offer double credit days, or incentives to get you to surf. Use those
to your advantage and surf extra hard with them on those days.
Traffic exchanges will work if you work them. The nice thing is they
are free to join and can give your business a jump start when you have
more time than money.
Why Manual Traffic Exchanges Aren't Good For Your Website
Some webmasters may be tempted to use manual traffic exchanges to bring
in visitors, these are websites in which the user visits other people's
sites in exchange for a visit to their own. Manual traffic exchanges
typically use a timer and a browser script which you browse continually
through websites that have signed up for the exchange. When you visit
the other person's site for a certain amount of time, typically 10-30
seconds, they will in turn visit your site for that same time period.
The person doesn't have to actually look at your site, but just stay at
your site until the timer is done. Many exchanges have problems with
cheaters and bots.
The traffic you get from these sites is of very low quality, most of
the users don't even pay attention to your site and probably tab out to
another browser until the timer runs out. While the volume of traffic
may seem high, virtually none of them have any interest in your site's
content and they won't stick around, which just uses up your bandwidth.
In most cases these sites are a waste of time and were created to bring
in ad revenue by selling banners on the script or in the site
rotation.
These sites usually take a lot of time to use as well. You can do an
unlimited amount of site visits on most of them, but it's not worth
spending hours per day visiting other people's websites just to get
very uninterested visitors. If you visited websites for an hour
straight at 30 seconds each, you'd have visited 120 websites in that
hour and got around that many hits back. There are much better ways of
using your time, like creating content for your website or learning
about other ways to promote your material.
You should use different tactics to get quality traffic to your
website. Some examples are buying advertising to get more traffic to
your site or do link exchanges with similar sites. Getting listed on
search engines can bring in a lot of quality visitors, and search
engines typically look for unique content and sites with a lot of
backlinks. Try doing research into Search Engine Optimization(SEO),
which is the science of getting better listings on search engines like
Google and Yahoo. New webmasters may get frustrated at first because
it's hard to bring in traffic, but there are much better options than
manual traffic exchanges.
Building Your Opt-in List With Traffic Exchanges
A large number of people and companies are making use of traffic
exchanges for generating traffic for their business. Consequently, they
draw visitors to visit their site and if their site is interesting
enough, these visitors may also turn into customers. In traffic
exchanges, almost every company is trying to advertise its own products
or services and also looking for more and more new businesses. So
basically, you get a large number of advertisers as well as buyers.
In order to build an opt-in list with your traffic exchanges, you have
to offer something which is able to appeal to advertisers in traffic
exchanges. To do that, you have to create a subscription web page and
offer information on how better results can be produced from the
traffic exchanges. Also use a squeeze page and ask your visitors to
leave their name and email address so that you can get in further
contact with them.
Do not forget to add a thank you page at the end on which you can so
your gratitude towards the customers to visit your site and give their
information. On that page, you can also feature the product or service
your company is manufacturing or selling. It can be in the form of a
free e-book or subscription to the newsletter of your company and do
not forget to include your web links in them. With the use of your
imagination, you can create a thank you page which is one of the
greatest ways for marketing your company. Once you have set up your web
page, you can start marketing your promotion offer on traffic exchanges.
Once you have managed to convince the visitors to leave their contact
information on your squeeze page, you can gather all the information
and create an opt-in list. This is a list of the names and e-mail
addresses of your website's visitors. They have visited your website
which means that they are interested in the product or service provided
by your company. Research has shown that most people have to be
reminded about a company again and again before they actually take a
step to avail its services. Keeping this in mind, you can send your
company advertisement along with your newsletter to the visitors again
and again.
In order to ensure that you have got the valid e-mail addresses of the
visitors, you can have an autoresponder signup form on it. In this way,
you will have their valid e-mail addresses of the visitors which you
can use afterwards to continue marketing your products or services.
If you do not have technical skills, there are many professional
service providers who will create your squeeze page, thank you page and
even your opt-in list for you. As these are very simple tasks to do,
these services are available at quite affordable rates so that nearly
every budget can afford them. Building an opt-in list is one of the
very best effective techniques that can be used for popularizing and
enhancing your business.
A Secret Few Understand About Affiliate Marketing and Traffic Exchange
Two industries that are many times misunderstood when it comes to
Internet marketing are traffic exchanges and affiliate marketing
. Let's take a look at how you can effectively combine both to create
an excellent income for yourself.
We could probably summarize this article in one sentence by saying,
when you use traffic exchanges go for the lead as opposed to going for
the sale. What we mean by that is promoting your affiliate marketing
website is not the best way to utilize traffic exchanges.
What you want to do is go for the lead, meaning capturing contact
information by giving away something of value such as a free report or
e-book. This contact information is sent to an autoresponder where you
can now follow up over and over for future sales.
You know that you have a minimum amount of time for your page to be
displayed if you have ever clicked on a traffic exchange. This is
another problem with promoting your affiliate website itself.
People just do not have enough time or the attention span to sit and
read a sales letter. But they will have enough time to quickly read a
short splash page that hits a few high points and at the end has a
sign-up box where they can put their name and e-mail address.
To do this you will need to create a landing page that is attractive
enough to encourage your reader to give you their contact information.
This is also an excellent place to include a header that you begin to
brand yourself with.
You might even go so far as to put your picture in the header or on the
landing page itself. As you develop campaigns in various traffic
exchanges, you will be branding yourself as well as trying to build a
list for future follow-up.
This is such a simple concept that it really is amazing more people do
not do it. We have all seen many differnet things promoted in traffic
exchanges. Think about what captures your attention and maybe ones that
you have actually clicked on or joined.
Very few of us ever buy a product off of the traffic exchange. But we
do sign up for free reports and e-books, which then get us on a list
where we begin to receive e-mail. It's off of these e-mails that we may
very well buy a product from an affiliate marketer.
This is the secret few people seem to really understand. The right way
to use affiliate marketing and traffic exchanges is to go for the lead
and follow-up for a sale at a later date.
Traffic Exchange Programs - Adapt For Success
Is surfing for hits a waste of your time? Is spending money as a Pro
member of any traffic exchange program ever worth its monthly fee? If
you are using a hit exchange program and are starting to wonder if you
are heading in the wrong direction, then the following information may
allow you to adapt your marketing strategy to fully utilize the power
of traffic exchanges and find greater success.
Lack of "targeted traffic
" is the most common complaint heard about hit exchange programs. It is
said that many hit surfers are not paying attention to other offers,
but merely "clicking' for more credits.
What is the easiest way to conquer this problem?
Generate your own targeted traffic by engaging the surfer directly!
Develop a simple, yet effective landing page that catches the surfer's
attention and clearly spells out your message. The faster the page
loads, the less clutter and external pages, the more likely you are to
make a conversion.
Not making any sales?
Use this time to capture their name, not their credit card. Most
Internet users are not comfortable buying a product the first time they
see the offer online. Add to the fact that you have 30 seconds or less
to convince them they should buy your product and it is pretty far
fetched to think you will make a lot of direct sales.
Gathering contact information to use in a follow up message series is
the most effective use of your time in front of the surfer. Capturing
leads allows you to not only promote to them on an ongoing basis but
builds the trust you need to make the sale as well.
Wasting too much time?
Earning credits can be time consuming, but it is ultimately what makes
the process effective. Break up your surfing into smaller portions.
Keep one browser window open and whenever you get a minute or two, surf
a few pages. It will keep earning hits from becoming monotonous and
frustrating. Supplementing your surfing with a paid or Pro membership
also allows you more freedom to break up the process simply because you
do not need to worry about running out of credits.
Offering a Replicated Website?
Many hit programs members are promoting a site that replicates for each
new member. Because there is no option to change the website and the
competition is far greater due to sheer numbers of the same promotion,
many get frustrated by their lack of success.
My suggestion is to try one of the many smaller hit exchange programs
available. If you break away from the few widely known traffic
exchanges and enter new territory, you may find a wider variety of
promotions and greater success of your website converting leads.
Free traffic can be a very ineffective method of Internet marketing if
you are approaching it incorrectly. Adapting your marketing strategies
to target the audience is very easy to implement will allow you to see
improvement in your lead conversions and future sales. Take the time
today to implement these procedures and discover the true profit
potential in traffic exchange programs.
-Practical
Tips By Me
:
-Don't use
the site which have loading or surfing problem.Don't worry
there are thousands of sites.
-Do the
multi tab browsing.Use Firefox or Crazy Browser for
that.Firefox is best.
-Don't surf
blindly just for credits & visit the site of your
interest as you will come across many usesul
sites
while surfing.To save time & visit the site
later on just write click & open the site in new
window & then book marked it.
-Don't surf
manual & auto surf sites together.
-Don't try
to sell something directly,instead just use a squeeze or
landing page to generate leads.
-Brand
everything on your sqeeze page including yourself,your
company &/or site & your product.
-Always put an open in new window link on you squeeze page.
-Use eye catching headline in your squeeze page with bigger bold words.
-Don't designed your squeeze page conjested with describing too much
information.In stead keep it neat,clean & attractive
with just writing only one or two most important facts.
-In short your squeeze page or landing page is specially designed to
use in TEs.
-Surf regularly in all the TEs you have joined.
-Understand if you have a 50000 crdits in a single TE or you
have
just only 100 credits in 200 TEs = 20000 credits and those credits are
far less then 50000 credits but believe me those 20000 credits are more
valuable then 50000 credits in a single site.You will reach vast
audience of visitors with using many TEs & with less
credits.
-Classify
all the sites as per timers.E.G. 8 to 10 seconds,15 to 20
seconds,20 to 30 seconds etc &
then surf them in their groups with multi tab.
-Use this
free software to fast change the tabs.(Link is down the page)
-Read the
mails of TE owners.You will get news about new changes
& credits as well.
-Most
important build your referrals by actively promoting each TE so
you will get free credits from
your
referrals' surfing & as well as referring
them.Either you can promote each TE separately(time consuming
& very difficult) or you can build a special page
& send traffic from your main site(very easy
& effective).
-Put
each TE's Banner Codes & Text Ad on your site.I have written a
seperate page in Banner Section for
this so you can understand how much important this is to
insert the codes.
Let me make this clear : I have not
included here
all
the sites & given order numbers as their popularity
or how
many members each site has but I have grouped them as per
their surf times so you may find the 1st site relatively new
and
with less number of members.Average surf time for most of Manual Surf
Exchange sites is 8 to 12 seconds but you will find the site even with
5 second surf timer as well as 30 seconds surf timer.Let us start with
Manual Traffic Exchanges with 30 second timer.These are TEs with
highest surf timer.I hav not seen any TEs with greater surf timer then
30 seconds.

Viral Hosts
Intro : This is also not
exactly a Manual Traffic Exchange.Then why I have included
the site in
this section of Manual Surf Traffic Exchange?Simple though it is not a
manual TE,it has an in built feature with which you can earn free
advertising credits exactly as a traffic exchange.It is basically a
shorten url cum tracking service with many built in other
valuable
features.
ViralHosts is a fantastic system providing everything online
marketer's need, without needing all the skills required to operate a
regular hosting account. Add in a mailer, huge commissions and
everything else and there's no denying this is a must have service.
You see, when I (Colin) started online, I struggled setting up a
website. I didn't know how to choose a host, and didn't know how to
design, program and setup my website. I'm not a designer, Server tech
or programmer! Through trial and error I finally got some sites up, and
guess what... They made ZERO money!
Five (5) years later, I run sites that do seven figures a year in
revenue and work on very high profit margins, but it wasn't a walk in
the park getting here. I made a bunch of mistakes and finally
discovered that the two hardest, most important things to earning money
online are:
* Setting up a site that looks decent... don't want to blind your
visitors, works well and actually stays online (good hosting needed)
* Traffic - Targeted traffic finding your site among the millions that
come online and 'clutter' the net every day!
Two rather large issues that I am sure you have encountered as well.
Even to this day I still make mistakes and still struggle to find good
hosting. The other day I got a tweet from someone saying one of my
sites was down.
Turned out the whole server was, so when I eventually found which
company they were hosted with and logged in, I saw that I had not made
the payment that month and my account was suspended. I had 7 different
hosting accounts and it was a nightmare to manage them all, so I
decided to go to a man who can do that and put them all in one place.
Enter...
ViralHosts Dot Com!
ViralHosts is not just a free hosting service, it is also a list
builder, traffic generator and website creator! The biggest 'problems'
are solved with one service...
Not only can you host your domain(s) with us, but you can also use our
point and click templates to get your site up live and hosted with a
few simple clicks! If you don't have your own domain name, that isn't a
worry either, we will give you a sub domain to use!
To make an income online, you simply MUST have a website. It is non
negotiable. Sure, some people claim you can use PPC traffic to
affiliate link to someone else's sales page, well for every 1 person
you can show me who makes money like that, I can show you 99 who don't.
Personally, I don't like those odds.
ViralHosts gives you a free, simple way to start branding yourself
online, generating opt-ins and promoting your... or other people's
offers!
That is the hosting side, lets chat about the list building side.
You see, ViralHosts has a 5 contact level double opt-in database,
meaning every person you refer goes under you. Then every person they
refer does as well. This happens for all referrals down 5 contact
levels.
These people would normally never have found your list, but now you
will be able to mail them every week through our system. Lets take a
look at what your list will look like if you refer just 5 people and
they did the same, as you will see below... by hosting with ViralHosts
there is no reason you can't refer 50, 100 or even 1,000 people!

Almost 20,000 in your double opt-in database that you can mail, simply
by referring 5 people, and here is why you should be able to refer a
lot more then that... and lets not forget that, depending on your
membership level, you can also earn up to 60% commissions on those you
personally referred!
The beauty
of this is it
is automatic! If you choose to leave the bar on at the top of your
site, it links to this page with Your Affiliate Link built in. The link
opens in a new window, so the user doesn't get taken away from your
site. When they join ViralHosts, they go in your double opt-in database
as a personal referral, and as they refer people, the snowball grows
bigger and picks up speed... Taking your list size and income with it!
If the
person you refer
chooses to upgrade their account with ViralHosts, you get paid large
commissions... This means, hosting with us actually pays you!
On top of
the affiliate
commissions we literally DO pay you! We place ads on your site that
open in a new window as to not take the visitor from your site, and we
pay you to do so. We will pay you 5 cents per 1,000 page impressions
you get, and ready... 5 cents for every 1,000 that your personal
referrals get. So imagine as you refer more members, your earnings from
their page views increases and these are payments!
Don't worry
if you would rather not have ads on your site, we have those options
available too after signup...
In Summary
ViralHosts
is a fantastic
system providing everything online marketer's need, without needing all
the skills required to operate a regular hosting account. Add in a
mailer, huge commissions and everything else and there's no denying
this is a must have service.
ViralHosts
will...
* Provide
You With Marketer Friendly, Reliable Hosting (50 MB Storage &
500 MB Bandwidth)
* Build Your
List on Autopilot!
* Pay You 5
cents per thousand page views on your site, and 5 cents per 1,000 from
all your referrals
* Open up
another Revenue Stream via High, Automatic, Recurring Commission
Payments
Powered by
Linux, Intel, Cisco & cPanel
And it will
cost you: Nothing (Free)
Even if you
already have
your sites hosted elsewhere, why not use our free hosting to make a new
one and add some content with links pointing to your current site. This
is a great way to build some nice, quality inbound links back to your
sites. You don't even need to buy another domain as we provide you with
subdomains you can use.
So why wait
any longer before acting on this 'no-brainer' offer and fill out the
form below to get started now...
ou
don't even need
to use the hosting as your main host if you already host somewhere
else. It can simply be used to build more links to your main site...
& you will earn on the pageviews your site does get! Of course,
you
can use it as your main hosting account too!
P.P.S - You
will not get
emails from people below you. The only people you will get emails from
are your upline and the odd Gold member. This is NOT a safe list, so
even though you can potentially email 30,000+ people per month, you
will only get a few emails per day and can opt-out at any time. Act NOW
to secure your financial Future!
P.P.P.S - We
almost forgot to mention... as a free member you can earn up to 40%
commissions!

reliable hosting & traffic & with your free replicataed
site you are going to provide
them
