Getting The Maximum Results Out Of Traffic Exchanges

My Friend Bob Asked Me...   "Hey John, Am I using traffic exchanges the correct way for maximum results?"

Bob is actually a close friend of mine, who is also marketing products online as an affiliate.  He has his own site that he sells products from to earn income online.  When I introduce the idea to Bob about using traffic exchanges for free traffic, he told me that they were not effective enough to produce any results.  "So why use them?" - He stated...  Which was a good point at the time but he didn't see the big picture.  The 'big picture' alluded him as it did for me when I first started using Traffic Exchanges.

I mean, why wouldn't it?  Think about it... You get to the site and it's very colorful, with certain traffic exchange themes that look a little childish at face-value.  Then when you do actually sign up for a membership you're clicking all day to receive credits/visitors to your site as a free member initially.  The more Bob tried to succeed with traffic exchanges the more he failed.  The mistake he was making wasn't in the products he was promoting, but rather the audience he was promoting too.

Traffic Exchange Review

 "Do traffic exchanges really work?"

Now before I answer that question, based on my own experience, I would like to add that you will find great resources, tips, and information through out this blog regarding traffic exchange programs and how you can actually earn some pretty decent traffic and cash from these programs as well.

Great Strategy I Used To Finally Get The Ball Rolling...

Now this strategy I used can be more effective in my opinion, in terms of traffic generation and also conversion, but their are some costs associated in order to get started.  In your traffic exchange membership area you'll always be giving the option to upgrade your membership to receive higher hit to hit ratio and also a replenishment of bonus credits every month as an upgraded member.  But if you're not taught how to use these extra credits properly it could be a waste of money and a burden on your budget to say the least.  I'm going to provide you with a strategy I used to earn a modest income online using simple traffic exchange programs.  


First and foremost, you have to really understand why people use traffic exchanges for free traffic in the first place.  And why it can be frustrating trying to produce any results using traffic exchanges directly.  It's actually quite simple I've found out.. Most people don't usually use traffic exchanges to BUY anything, most members use them to ADVERTISE for free! That's why it may seem difficult to sell a product or service through traffic exchanges.  The best strategy I was taught at the time, was to not only figure out the targeted audience I was advertising to, but also create my own LIST of targeted prospects that were interested in my product or what I had to offer. Which usually consisting of something relevant of value that was free of charge.  By doing this I needed a few internet marketing tools to get me started.
