12 Top Tips For Using The Traffic Exchanges
TIP 01: NEVER TRY TO SELL ANYTHING ON A TRAFFIC EXCHANGE With so many scams on the Internet cheating people out of their money it is not recommended to directly sell your product on a Traffic Exchange. Instead you should use a capture page to capture their email address so you can follow up your prospects with information about you and your product. This helps to build trust and is more likely to get sales. TIP 02: KEEP INFORMATION BRIEF AND TO THE POINT People who use Traffic Exchanges are the ones who want to build up credits to display their own web sites which means they don’t want to stop on one page for too long. It is better to use a small page with enough brief information to encourage them to go to your main page. Capture their email address so they can receive the information in their mailbox to read later. TIP 03: SET YOURSELF A REGULAR SURFING ROUTINE Some people do little or no surfing on the Traffic Exchanges and wonder why they are not getting anywhere. Set yourself a target to surf between 20 minutes to an hour each day and those credits will soon build up. TIP 04: AVOID USING DEFAULT AFFILIATE PAGES If you are promoting an affiliate company such as SFI, GDI or the DHS Club then you should avoid using their default affiliate pages. The reason for this is that people have seen these pages so many times they tend to ignore them. Instead you should use a capture page to get the prospect’s email address so you can encourage them to join your affiliate program by following them up with a series of emails. TIP 05: CONSIDER UPGRADING YOUR MEMBERSHIP Traffic Exchanges offer many benefits for upgraded users such as a credits pack and higher surf ratio. The credits will be added to your account every month and save you a lot of surfing time earning them. Upgrading costs a monthly fee and the price varies between each exchange. TIP 06: PURCHASE CREDITS INSTEAD OF EARNING THEM If you want more visitors in a shorter time then you should considering purchasing credits instead of earning them. This will save you hours of surfing and prices are quite cheap starting at ONLY $10 for 2000 credits in some exchanges. TIP 07: BUILD A DOWNLINE TEAM Traffic Exchanges, like affiliate programs, allow you to build a downline and provide the tools to do it. Building a downline team gives you extra credits when they surf and commission if they purchase credits. TIP 08: USE BANNER AND TEXT ADS Most exchanges allow you to display your banners and text ads as well as your web sites. As banner and text credits can be quite cheap it is worth purchasing some. You can also win credits during your surfing session. TIP 09: REGULARLY ASSIGN CREDITS AND SET AUTO-ASSIGN Some exchanges allow you to set a percentage of credits you want to add to your URLs. A setting of 100% will automatically assign all earned credits to one URL. If you have two URLS you could set the auto-assign to 50% for each one. Some exchanges require you to manually assign your credits. I recommend you do this after each surfing session to make sure you are getting the benefit. TIP 10: USE A ROTATOR URL Most Traffic Exchanges will let you use a Rotator URL. This is useful if you want to promote a few websites and you use many exchanges. The benefit of this is that you can edit the programs in the URL as often as you want without having to resubmit new URLS. TIP 11: LOOK OUT FOR GOOD STATS Traffic Exchanges will show you how many hits your page has received. Keep an eye on these stats to see how many hits a day you are actually receiving. The more your web site displays in the exchange – the more chance you have of getting a sign up. Also look at the exchange’s member base. Traffic Exchanges such as Traffic Splash, TS25 and StartXChange have a lot of members which means more eyeballs on your web site. TIP 12: USE MULTI-SURFING The Firefox Browser allows you to open multiple web sites in tabs and switch between them. You can use this feature to open up to 10 traffic exchanges at a time and surf each one by switching tabs. This means you can earn credits much faster as you are surfing some exchanges while you are waiting for others to count down.
