12 Things To Consider Before You Start On Your Traffic
Exchange Programs.
1. Read The Terms and Conditions
Before you sign up, you must first read and understand the terms and
conditions, the policy and the FAQs of the traffic exchanges of your choice.
Some exchanges allow only one account for one user or for one home
address. You do not want to break any rules or you will be booted out.
You cannot use any automated robots, scripts, emulators, auto-clickers,
and various other tools to surf for credits and most programs have ways to catch those who break the rules. So be aware of fraud tests, skill-cards or question-and-answer tests etc. that may pop up now and then to catch the cheaters. You will be penalized if you fail the tests. Some exchanges will reward you with extra credits for passing the tests.
2. Join Several Traffic Exchange Programs
You may need to join several traffic exchanges programs to maximize and to spread your website(s) promotion over the Internet.
You may want to visit the site first and watch how the exchange works.
Remember to watch for the same ad as your affiliate program and how often this ad is repeated.
If the exchange is saturated with the same ad or similar ads from the same affiliate program then you will have to find another traffic exchange. This usually happens when the affiliate program you joined recommends a particular traffic exchange and all the other affiliates use the same exchange.
3. Invest Your Time Wisely
The number of exchanges you join will depend on the amount of time you have each day to surf for credits. Remember, you have to go back to each program every day to surf for free credits.
You will need to spend at least 30 minutes for each program which means you will have to set aside one hour for two programs. Remember also that some traffic exchanges may delete your account if you are inactive for a certain period.
Sign up for the number of exchanges you are most comfortable with and make sure you do your part. You are investing your time to get free advertising.
4. Use Same Username and Password for Convenience
Most programs will need you to fill in a username and a password. So,
choose a username and password that are unique and memorable to you.
You can use the same username and password for all these programs. Doing so will save you the problem of trying to remember different usernames and passwords and make it easier for you to log-in to your programs.
5. Create New E-Mail Address
You may want to create a new e-mail address so that e-mails and newsletters from these exchange programs will not jammed up your present e-mail address that you have dedicated for your online business.
Some programs may send you an e-mail for confirmation and you will need to click onto the link provided to activate your account.
Others may require you to earn a certain amount of credits before you can post your website(s).
6. Get Your Referral Links Correct
Your primary objective is to promote or advertise your own website(s) or affiliate programs referral links in these traffic exchanges and to get people to watch your ads.
Your secondary objective is to build a downline in a particular traffic exchange program so as to get extra free credits.
You must always remember to post your URLs or referral links correctly. Test them out before you post them. The worst that can happen is that your website does not show when somebody clicks onto your link. Your entire advertising campaign is down the drain.
Here are some examples of the URLs or referral links for SFI
http://www.moreinfo247.com/XXXXXXXXX/FREE
Note: Do NOT forget to replace XXXXXXXXX with your own ID#.
IAHBE Program
http://www.moreinfo247.com/XXXXXXXXX/IAHBE
Note: Do NOT forget to replace XXXXXXXXX with your own ID#.
http://www.moreinfo247.com/XXXXXXXXX/CP
Note: Do NOT forget to replace XXXXXXXXX with your own ID#.
7. Build Your Traffic Exchange Downline
The best way to earn lots of free credits in these exchange programs is to refer others to the program and build a downline.
To build your downline in these traffic exchange programs you must promote your traffic exchange referral links to other traffic exchanges. So, make absolutely certain which one is the referral URL and which one is the surfing URL. Always test your links. You don't want to refer people to sign up at the wrong place.
8. Use Splash Pages If Can
Use a splash page for your traffic exchanges because they load so much faster.
Avoid using a lot of Flash. They are pretty but take a lot of time to load and before you know it, the time is up and the viewer clicks on to the next site.
9. Use of Text Ads and Banners
For most programs you just have to insert your websites' URLs. Some programs may need you to write a text ad and some may allow you to use banners. So get them all ready and tested before you use them on your traffic exchange sites
10. Choose Your Targeted Audience
Some traffic exchange programs offer targeted traffic depending on which category you choose. Choose the category that best fits your target URL such as Business Opportunities, Business and Marketing, Work at Home, Affiliate Programs, MLM, Internet Marketing etc.
11. Organize Your Traffic Exchange Programs
You can bookmark your traffic exchange URLs or you may want to put
all your traffic exchange links into one favorite folder in your computer
so that you can remember to go through them one by one each time you surf for credits. You can also use a traffic referral builder pad where you have all your traffic exchange referral links on one builder pad website.
You will find other traffic exchanges listed there. Check them out to see
whether they fit your needs.
12. Manage Your Time
With so many traffic exchanges to visit each day, the best strategy is to organize your time. Make a "to-do" list. Prioritize your important sites and consolidate your surfing time. Break them up into smaller segments so that you can do one in the morning, one in the afternoon and one in the evening.
Do not get distracted. Stay focus. You must surf for credits by visiting the traffic exchanges everyday. Use your favorite traffic exchanges folder or traffic builder pad website.
Earn some credits every day so that your ads will be shown. The more traffic you have visiting your sites, the more chances you have to get some conversions.
