Traffic Exchanges

Here I will tell you about my experience with the different traffic exchanges and their effectiveness.
Traffic exchanges are a simple and relatively effective method of building a downline. So, how does it work? Most are manual surfs where you sign up (very easy) and click on "Start Surfing." You will be directed to a framed page where you will view other member's web pages. When the timer in the frame stops, you will be asked to click on a certain number, word, or shape. Once you do, you will see the next page.

So, how does this help you? As you surf, you accrue credits or points which you can redeem for visits to your site. Each one offers a different surf ratio as well as bonuses. Some offer contests which are actually fun and can win you free credits.

So, which are the best sites? Everyone has their favorites, and this is really just a matter of my opinion and my results. I will list my favorite sites as well as the important statistics about each.

Tips for making Traffic Exchanges work for you.
Advice for making the most of Traffic Exchanges:

1.) Build a Splash Page! As you will see when you start surfing, you only have a brief moment to capture the viewers attention and get them to visit your site and sign up. If you don't, they will surf right past your page. So, you need a page that will load fast and get the surfer to click! In addition, often the signup page for your PTC is not all that inviting. You should do the selling if you want them to become your referral. Another important factor: sometimes when a surfer clicks on your Ref link, if they click onto another page to check out the website, you will no longer be their referral. You can avoid this by selling them on the site before they even click with a great splash page.

2) Plan to spend a few hours a day surfing. Try to spread your surfing time among several sites. This gives your site a broader audience. I would suggest surfing two or three at once; this is perfectly acceptable.

3) Make use of the bonuses that each site offers. Some sites offer huge bonuses that equal up to hundreds of views for your site. Take time to reach these bonuses and get free views for your site.
