Why do Webmasters Need to Join Traffic Exchanges? |
|
| Any webmaster or for that matter any owner of a website will want their site seen and visited by as many people as possible in order to maximize greatest benefit. There's absolutely no point building or paying for the construction of a wonderful website if no one comes to visit - it's that simple. |
|
|
| OK - but where do Traffic Exchanges fit into the overall scheme of things online? | ||
| Traffic Exchanges offer an opportunity for your site to be visited by lots of fresh eyes. If you have a product or service to sell then the benefits are obvious. | ||
| But do surfers at Traffic Exchanges actually buy anything, aren't they simply clicking to gain credits in order to ensure that their sites are seen? | ||
| They do both. What must be appreciated is that surfers are people looking for the same kinds of things we all are such as freebies, products, services that will ultimately benefit themselves. If you have a product or offer a service people want then making it as visible to as many people as possible won't do your business any harm and is more likely to do it alot of good! | ||
| Aren't Traffic Exchanges limited by the number of members they have? | ||
| If one individual from a Traffic Exchange purchases one of your products/services you would be delighted - not only because you made a sale, but because joining the majority of Traffic Exchanges is free. Think about it - someone else has set-up a place where you can advertise, they take on all the costs all the maintenance, all you do is place text with a link and surf yourself in order that your site gets seen. | ||
| Is it OK to join more than one Traffic Exchange? | ||
| Webmasters and or web owners should join as many Traffic Exchanges as they can possibly fit into their routine if they really want to grab some online visibility. That's why on our traffic exchanges page we suggest that you join all those displayed. | ||
| Which is BEST? | ||
| This really depends on what it is you are hoping to achieve and how you want to go about it. Many Traffic Exchanges offer games to increase the number of credits you can earn while surfing. This incentive can prove fun and makes surfing more enjoyable. Take a look at HitMagik if you enjoy playing hangman, it really does work well with surfing and you receive bonus credits if you win the game. OK so someone is bound to suggest that these distractions are simply a ploy designed to hook surfers. I won't disagree, but it makes work - and let's be straight about this, surfing is work (21st century work) but work nonetheless, and games make work more fun. However if all you're interested in surfing without distraction try CheetahTraffic which you will find fast - 10 second timer and without distraction. | ||
| Find the right Traffc Exchange | ||
| This might sound easy but they're all tweaked towards the individuals who created them. The good thing is that this makes them personal and you'll quickly discover that the majority of Traffic Exchange owners/managers like to communicate with their members so if an exchange of ideas is your kind of thing feel free, as constructive crticism is welcome. Try any of these to begin with: Clicksmatrix, DragonSurf or Soaring4Traffic. Understand that there are lots of people running Traffic Exchanges who will be only too willing to offer useful advice, the sites mentioned above are just a few that I have found particularly helpful. | ||
| How long will I be expected to review each site? | ||
| Many Traffic Exchanges now offer a wide range of timescales to surf sites ranging from under 10 seconds up to 40 seconds. | ||
