Can you Really Get Results from Auto-Surfs?

There are different thoughts on autosurf traffic exchanges. Some people say they are a waste of time and bandwidth. Others swear by them. I asked a new manual exchange owner who didn’t allow referral pages of autosurf exchanges on his site, what was wrong with autosurf traffic… he didn’t know, he had just heard stuff that he couldn’t recall.

One thing I have learned in life and in marketing, you may want to try it yourself  just to see. They always tell you, results may vary, well, I am curious about my results more than Joe Smith’s results.  Autosurf traffic exchanges are a main part of my total marketing strategy. I could explain in detail the what, why, and how, but that isn’t the point of this post.

The Traffic Laundry Revisited.

In 2004 Norm Duffy upset many of the so-called traffic exchange “Gurus” by making public some of his results from his traffic exchange testing. I was there and the results were, shall I say, very surprising. As you can imagine, it is a big help knowing what exchanges get results. The Traffic Laundry idea goes beyond that. It takes “dirty” or “useless” traffic, runs it through the “laundry” and come out with traffic that gets you results. This is over and above what traffic you are already getting.

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.

1. The banner got my attention
2. 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!

New traffic exchanges are launched almost daily now.  There are a couple of reasons for me to promote a new exchange before it has a track record.

1)  I personally know the owner and know they are going to stand behind their service.

2) I have personally been in contact with the owner and am impressed

This new exchange falls under the second reason.

I had a concern/question after joining, did the usual support ticket and got a prompt and courteous response.

After communicating with Justin I see the drive, motivation, concern, and dedication a traffic exchange needs to develop and grow. I’m looking for Exciting Hits to be a productive marketing outlet. I’m so convinced, I’m putting my name behind it with this post.
