Are You Sure of Your Promotins?
by Toolman on Mar.03, 2010, under Tips
While surfing the other day I spotted a banner for a product that got my attention. Good job! Banner ads may normally have a small click through rate, but some are more productive than others. This one did things right.
- The banner got my attention
- It informed me or tweaked my interest enough that I wanted to know more, so I clicked.
That is where the banner ad campaign failed completely though.
When I clicked on the banner, I was sent to a page that said, “BannerKeyring Error: no banner on this keyring was viewed before clickthrough.” Which isn’t correct because I did see the banner…
This isn’t the only example I have….
I have seen sites in traffic exchanges that didn’t show because someone misspelled a word in the URL. I have seen people promote their login page. Typos in classified ads, text ads, etc. These take credits or money to have your ad or site seen, it cost just as much to send people to an error page as it does to your site, so why not be sure you send them to your site.
The main point being, check your ads! It is that simple, check behind yourself. Whether you are just starting online marketing or have been doing it 10 years or more, we all are human and make typos and mistakes. Wasted ad credits and money can be saved simply by taking the time to check an ad after posting it.
I keep a text file that I use constantly while promoting. It has all my current promotions, checked and verified to be correct. I copy and paste my promotions. This helps cut down on typos, but I STILL CHECK behind myself.
Happy Marketing!

If you have joined The Traffic Laundry then you are getting free hits from… well, you know where from….
This was covered in the weekly training sessions. A simple technique of taking the same traffic exchanges you currently use and gaining more free hits, like pulling free hits out of thin air. Some of us have used this technique successfully for years. It is not only easy, but ethical and productive. I chuckle as people learn The Traffic Laundry technique and get amazed when it actually works for them.

A priceless benefit of joining The Traffic Laundry (and it is free) is the weekly training sessions. Norm covers any and all aspects of internet marketing. In one recent session website SEO (Search Engine Optimization) was covered. As an example Norm directed the members in the room to observe a Google search for The Traffic Laundry.
Autosurf Traffic Exchanges

Autosurf Traffic Exchange Myths
Some people will tell you autosurf traffic exchanges are useless, that people don’t see your ads/promotions. I have heard some long-time marketers say they have had no responses from autosurf traffic exchanges. I say they haven’t used them properly.
The theory seems to make sense on the surface. You start an autosurf traffic exchange running, earning you credits to have your site/ad/promotions shown. Then you go to bed, or the store, or to work, and let the exchange run. Logically, people will assume that everyone does this and so no eyeballs actually see your ads.
But looking a little deeper, we see several things happening.
Autosurf Traffic Exchange Reality
My years of experience with autosurf traffic exchanges is that there are both immediate results as in sign-ups and behind-the-scenes benefits relating to search engine rankings.
