Traffic Exchange Crash Course

There are three ways to consistently drive traffic to your websites, mini-sites and blogs; you can buy it(Google Ads, Pay Per Click, Traditional Paid Advertising, etc.), you can develop it organically (social media networking, e-zine marketing, article marketing, newsletter marketing, and blogging, etc.) or you can exchange time for traffic by joining online exchanges and participating in traffic communities by agreeing to view the ads and emails of other members in exchange for the community reading yours. This is a great way to get free traffic and build your list – but that is only part of the story – for the rest go to:

Optimum Traffic Formula Module 01

I use this formula to drive traffic to my websites, blogs, lead capture pages (squeeze pages), sales letters, banner ads, hot links, solo ads and email messages all delivered SPAM free and viewed by thousands of people every day at the click of a mouse. Follow these simple steps and your messages will be flooding the Internet in a matter of days.

Important Note Your “User Name” is the name that will appear in your affiliate link, so choose something other than your name and keep in mind that whatever you chose will appear in your referral link, so be sure to make it relevant. These Sites are Free to Join These sites are free to join and most of them provide a ‘Special One Time Offer’ to upgrade your membership allowing you to advertise more often and to more list members; I recommend sticking with the Free Account in most cases until you have measured your results for each Safe List and Solo Ad account. Then upgrade the accounts that are delivering consistent results. Consider reinvesting a small portion of a sales commission that you receive from a specific account back into that membership in order to leverage your results.

TRAFFIC EXCHANGE RECOMMENDATIONS

What is a Traffic Exchange? Traffic exchanges are membership website where the membership community displays their individual web pages to market products, services or to build their list. In addition to marketing to the other members, you also view the web sites of the other members of the community – hence the meaning behind traffic exchange.

Option 1: Surf for Hits When I first began using traffic exchanges I exclusively surfed for hits to my website and affiliate offers. Although this was very time consuming, the method I used (as explained later in this report) allowed me to surf passively and although surfing for hits is not ideal, it can help you drive traffic by exchanging time in place of money – this is ideal if your budget is zero!

Option 2: Purchase Hits My big break through to earning consistent income with traffic derived from traffic exchanges came when I started selectively paying for hits. Not all traffic exchanges are created equally and they certainly all do not produce results, some exchanges have a more responsive membership than others and learning which sites to invest your time and money is one of the keys to having success with this pillar of marketing.

There are two primary ways to pay for hits though the exchanges I recommend. First, you can purchase a monthly or annual subscription that entitles you to a fixed number of hits per month within a package that includes banner impressions and text ads as part of your subscription. This is among the least expensive traffic you can buy and although the hit to conversion rates are not on the level of pay per click, the ROI is more than acceptable and I recommend doing this on a limited number of sites.

The second option is to purchase a package of hits as a free member of the site. For example a recent example from Jet Stream Traffic provided 10,000 hits, 10000 banner impressions and 10,000 text ads for $33 with a one-time payment, no subscription. Obviously a fantastic deal and very inexpensive traffic especially if you can create opt in subscribers and multiple sales daily.

Option 3: Combine Surfing and Purchasing for Credits Combining surfing and selectively purchasing credits is the method that will allow you to maximize traffic exchanges and create consistent traffic inexpensively. My recommendation is to select 1-3 exchanges that you like and accept the special offer upon signing up or upgrade your account from your members back office as soon as feasible .Then you will be able to obtain a guaranteed number of hits from those sites without investing the time surfing there.

I would then utilize the remaining sites that you have joined as a free member and follow my ‘Surfing Power Hour’ method as described to semi-passively surf for credits. This will provide you with an optimum experience and further leverage your traffic generation through the exchanges.

Surfing Power Hour: A Method to Increase Your Surfing Effectiveness This is a daily practice design to add thousand of credits to your traffic exchange accounts every month and it works like a charm every time. Complete the follow steps once you have signed up for each traffic exchange account.

Open a brand window in your web-browser
Open a new tab for ten traffic exchange sites and log in to each account (be sure to select yes for your browser to remember your user name and password
Bookmark ‘All Tabs’ so that you can return to this set of tabs each day to surf – pick a name for the bookmark group like ‘Power Hour 1’ then repeat this process with a second set of ten sites – this way you include each of the 20 sites listed in you ‘Affiliate Funnel.’ Bookmark this set of tabs by labeling them ‘Power Hour 2’
Be sure to prioritize these sites in the same order as in your Affiliate Funnel because those are set an order of rank.
Frequently, (I recommend once per day) open the first set of tabs bookmarked ‘Power Hour 1’ and for thirty minutes surf through the each site, tab to tab cycling through confirming each site by selecting the appropriate icon and moving on to the next site. Once you have surfed repeatedly through the first set of tabs, simply repeat the process for the second set. At the end of your hour you will have added massive amounts of credits to all twenty accounts and your pages will continue to be seen throughout the month.

Credits are awarded when the presenting websites appear on your browser for a prescribed period of time typically 5-10 seconds (this varies by traffic site guidelines). Once the website has been displayed for the prescribed period of time you are awarded points. You must take an action such as clicking on a specified color or matching a small icon located at the top or bottom of the search frame (this also varies by site). Once you take the required action your account is credited and those credits convert to exposures for you websites and links on the traffic system.

Massive amounts of traffic can be generated by surfing one hour EVERY DAY opening both bookmarked windows and simply rotating through the tabs in sequence. Start at first tab and click through each 1-10 returning to the first tab and repeating the process. **Please note that the “Terms of Service” which govern most traffic exchange websites prohibit “gaming the system,” which is not endorsed by me or my Optimum Traffic Formula.

This system works and it is free! Use this to drive traffic to your websites every day, measure your results and make adjustments as needed. Be sure to promote your affiliate links for each site so that you consistently earn bonus credits and in many cases affiliate commissions for referring others to your chosen traffic websites.

This is a powerful system that will help you build your business. If you apply this formula consistently for the next twelve months, I am certain that you will grow a large opt in list, create numerous sales, experience a high return on your investment money and most importantly your time. Note: There are twenty sites featured in Affiliate Funnel. A few of the sites listed here are not shown in Affiliate Funnel and I will note this in the description of those sites.

We are featuring ten sites here, but strongly recommend that you join these sites in addition to those in Affiliate Funnel. Myth Busted #2 “You have to spend all day surfing on Traffic Exchanges to get hits.” A few final thoughts about Traffic Exchanges Traffic Exchanges are simply optional pillars of marketing, you should use a number of diverse methods (pillars) to drive traffic to your websites, sales letters and opt in pages.

There is no silver bullet when it comes to Internet marketing and creating multiple streams of income. By design these methods are very cost effective and highly measurable if applied using the tools recommended in this special report. Follow this system step by step, invest the comparatively small amount of money to gain access to the tools that you will need and upgrade your membership in the sites as recommended.

S.W.A.T. Traffic

I am the owner of S.W.A.T. Traffic it’s sister site to ‘I Love Hits’ as both were owned by Jon Olson, a veteran of nearly a decade marketing through traffic exchanges. I fell in love with S.W.A.T. Traffic and was able to acquire the site from Jon in September 2010. Pros – This is another uncomplicated site at offer a number high value tools including tutorials, tell a friend script and a members forum. This is a high quality membership site that is fairly new on the scene, so you might have a bit of an advantage if growing a down-line of S.W.A.T. Traffic referral sign ups is important to you. Cons – This site has all of the bases covered and I have found no negatives with my upgraded membership.
