TRAFFIC EXCHANGE LESSONS
+ POWER SURFING 101
+ POWER SURFING 101
By Bosco McGowan: The Residual Income Guy
Today I'm showing you how to Power-Surf the Traffic Exchanges
(TEs) in order to get sign ups into the awesome EZ Wealth Solution
which is the most successful newbie plug and play residual income
program in internet history.
(Well, OK, The truth is you can PROMOTE ANYTHING YOU
WANT using these tips and tricks.)
Starting At The Beginning
For the uninitiated, let me briefly say that Traffic Exchanges
(or Hit Exchanges) are websites where you show me yours
and I'll show you mine --(Offer pages, of course). The greatest
features of TEs is how easy it is to start begin your internet
marketing career. If you have ever thought about making
money online, TEs can help you make that happen.
And despite popular rhetoric by many a guru who say there is
nothing good to be had in the TEs, those in the know are well
aware that, with the right tools and techniques, the exchanges
can be never ending sources for leads.
If you are trying to directly sell in the exchanges, you can
forget it because people are not there to look at offers. They
want you to look at theirs. They are on a mission getting traffic
credits & they are not likely to stop and read long pages.
But if you present an intriguing offer, and/or a free gift, they
will take 5 seconds to fill in their name and email for information
at a time that is more convenient.
This will require an autoresponder and follow up campaign.
If you are my referral, I can give you a campaign in my
autoresponder for free, but it is best to get your own. If
you are going to be serious about making money, you will
get one at some point. The sooner the better.
If you would like to try a month's test drive to the best
autoresponder (Aweber) for only $1 click HERE
You can get free list building videos from Chris Farrell
HERE and sign up for a free 30 day test drive at TrafficWave
autoresponder.
You are going to do much better with an autoresponder than
with your EZWS referral page. Again, sign up for your own,
or ask me about the free option.
FINALLY, LET'S START OUR LESSON ON
POWER SURFING!
Besides trying to use the exchanges to directly sell things,
what is the next biggest classic newbie mistake?
Surfing the TEs one at a time. Why in the world would you
do that, when you can open a dozen or so in the same window
using different tabs, and just go down the line clicking the timer
icons? It's possible to click about 10 pages in that manner in the
time you would be waiting for one (longer) timer to count down
to zero.
And even if you are already employing this power surfing technique,
here's another trick that can even DOUBLE your new-found surfing
velocity.
TOGGLING WITH THE KEYBOARD
Pretend you're a wild west gunslinger, with a six shooter in each hand,
doing twice the damage. From now on, you use one hand to get from
one TE to the next, and with the mouse, you are going to exclusively
be clicking the timer. Understand? You will use the keyboard hand to
toggle to the next exchange.
How? On the Firefox browser (& copy cat Internet Explorer) you can
toggle to other tabs by pressing the CONTROL Key and the TAB Key
simultaneously. Or you can download Quick Tab Change HERE and
have more options as to which key is used.
HERE'S HOW YOU DO IT
You're going to open all of your TEs in a single window by
using the TABS feature. Just open your first TE in the Mozilla
Firefox web browser. It's similar in Internet Explorer since
they followed the Firefox lead, but I recommend getting the
Firefox browser at mozilla.com since it's generally faster and
safer, (and you can make it even more safe by getting the
add-on program called NOSCRIPTS.) OK, you've opened your
first TE, click FILE in the upper left of the screen.
Then click NEW TAB and you will have a new browser page
to type in the web address of the second TE. You will also see
two Tabs toward the top of the page Keep adding more TE's
by repeating the steps, and you will see a new Tab each time.
Once you have all the TE's you want (I usually surf about 10)
-- go back to the first one, and click the timer link to get the
clock counting down.
Then either hit the key you designated in your Quick Tab Change
script or just hold down the CONTROL Key (bottom left) and the
TAB key (3 keys up) at the same time. You will be on the second
site. Use the mouse to click the second timer link and get that one
started counting down, and hit Control / Tab again on the
keyboard to toggle to the third site. Keep repeating all the way
across to the last exchange and then go back to the first one again
and Rinse & Repeat...again & again.
NOTE: If you've never been to a Traffic Exchange & this might
as well be written in Chinese, don't worry. There's a list of TEs
for you to join below, and each one has support staff who can
help you. Usually once you are familiar with one, you can get
around in the others.
If this is your first experience with the keyboard toggling, it may
take a little practice, but once you get in the flow, you will be
amazed how easy it is to power surf up to twice as fast as you
were previously power surfing in the past. (And if you're
switching from one at a time to this method, you may increase
your hits by as much as a factor of 15. This is POWERFUL
information.)
WORD UP, MY HOMIES
If you are going to be surfing up thousands of pages daily in
commercial hit exchanges, you better be hooked up with some
protection for your computer.
Here's the link to my safety tutorial with a 6 step protocol for
Safe & Efficient Surfing. Not following this advice could bring
your business to a complete stand-still by ruining your
computer.

ANOTHER CRUCIAL PIECE TO THE PUZZLE
To get the most hits for your clicks, the surf ratio is all important.
That means how many pages you must surf in order to show your
page once. Most exchanges are 3 to 1. You have to view 3 pages to
show your page once. It's a MAJOR TIME WASTER to surf under
such awful ratios.
THE MOST HITS FOR YOUR CLICKS
Below is a list of some the best surf ratio exchanges for free
members on the internet. 1.0 = 1 to 1 / .75 = 4 to 3 /
.66 = 3 to 2 / .5 = 2 to 1 / You can click on them to join, if you
are not already a member.
EasyHits4U (1.0 on the 20 Second Timer / .5 on the 15 second timer)
Use the 20 second timer on the right, not the 15 second timer
on the left. You'll get 1 to 1 surf ratio by using the timer that is 5
seconds longer. This site is great at eating up your credits. That's
generally what you want; (your traffic used quickly). The goal is
eyeballs on your page today, not tomorrow, next week or next
month.
TrafficSwarm (1.0 with massive bonuses making it more like 2.0)
TrafficSwarm is the best TE for free members because their bonuses
are so generous, you usually come away with a 1 to 2 surf ratio.
(Show your page twice for every page you viewed.) That's unheard
of even at the paid level, for free it's just sick.
Plus you get some targeted traffic with them since they make you
write a headline and blurb for each link. People who aren't
interested will often just not click on it, thus saving your credit for
someone who might be interested.
FreeTrafficWorld (.75)
This site is amazing. Rivals TrafficSwarm and EasyHits4U, even
though their surfing ratio isn't quite as good. It's 4 to 3 (.75)
First thing to do when you come here every day is go to the
CLICK2EARN section.
These are ads that people have paid for and they are on a longer
timer, including up to 90 seconds. But you get up to 25 points,
so who cares if the timer is longer.
WARNING: These ads have a tendency to disappear and the page
will say there are no more. But if you have not worked your way
down to the 3 point ads, then there really are more ads, and you
must keep clicking REFRESH and NEXT PAGE over and over to
get the ads to reappear.
Always start with the CLICK2EARN section (while Power Surfing
9 or more other TEs). Use them all, first thing every day. After
you have clicked them all, switch over to SURF NOW (regular
surfing).
Another amazing aspect to this site is the Program of the Month
They will give you 1000 and sometimes up to 3000 hits for
joining a free program. Are you kidding me?
Traffic-Co-op (1.0 but you'll build up credits quickly and can stop)
This one is 1 to 1 but it's small so you build up a lot of credits quickly
and then you should bale and let them dwindle before coming back.
There is no need to keep surfing a site if you have an abundance of
credits. Better to surf a poor surf ratio site, even 3 to 1, than build
up credits that aren't going to be used any time soon. It's all about
getting eyeballs on your page TODAY.
(And that's why you should use all the slots they give you to list
websites, even if you are only promoting one page. Place the
same URL in the TE as many times as they give you slots to list
your sites. 5 slots? List it 5 times. This gets your credits eaten
and that's what you want.)
TrafficStorm4U (.66)
TrafficStorm4U is a 3 to 2 surf ratio site, but it's so small you'll
build up credits quickly and you won't need to keep building them
up indefinitely.
Help Hits (.50)
Although this is just a .50 (2 to 1), with the guaranteed bonuses
every 15 pages, you may end up closer to 1.0 than .50 most of
the time. NOTE: They have an Earn Money section that pays
up to a nickel a hit. At the time of this writing, they have ads
for 16 cents a day which is about $5 a month, and that will ay
for your upgrade at the next TE (below).
Here are several more 2 to 1 (.5) surf ratio sites:
HitSafari
Only $5 to upgrade to 1 to 1 surfing, and sometimes the monkey
gives out some good bonuses.
GladiatorHits
TrafficChampions
RevolutionaryTraffic
Deep Sea Hits
Hit 2 Hit
ClickRanch
Blue-Surf
HawaiianHitz
Get 1000 hits for signing up and surfing 50 pages. Watch the for
SURPRISE / BONUS icon-link at the bottom left to rack up some
good credits.
Web Biz Insider
(This last one, I share under protest, since I'm convinced the site
owner purposely confuses people into thinking they are getting
twice as many hits as they actually receive. Pitiful. And he's not
the only one. Some sites like HitsBoosterPro make 10 credits equal
1 website hit, and they lure you to join with the promise of 1000
website hit credits, which you think is 1000 hits but it's only 100.
There is just such nonsense being done to fool you in I.M. you really
have to be meticulous. If it seems to good to be true, chances are,
it is. Like that Acme People Search guy who promises $125 within
24 hours if you sign up for free (while showing you the picture of his
million dollar mansion he got from people who believed him. LOL)
GENERALLY SPEAKING...
I don't recommend surfing any exchange with a ratio less than .50,
also known as, 2 to 1. You view 2 pages to show yours once. If any
of the listed sites here are no longer giving a base ratio (before
bonuses) of 2 to 1, please contact me at
newrichreportboscoc(at) gmail.com so I can give them the boot. And
conversely, contact me if you have any sites to contribute to the list
meeting that requirement. We all need to remember, if we build up a
lot of credits at any of the smaller sites, to quit surfing them until the
credit supply diminishes.
OTHER TRAFFIC EXCHANGES
The question arises: If we are all using the same TEs, won't we
diminish our results? The fact of the matter is, a large program
is going to become saturated in thousands of TEs no matter what.
However the number of new people choosing to have a go at
making money online is always growing and creates a never ending
market. You're not going to find many TEs that don't have the
major affiliate program you are in, most likely.
But if you want to include your favorite TEs into your Power Surfing
menu, then feel free to have a few of yours open at the same time
several of the ones listed here are open. Just ensure that you are
ALWAYS surfing TrafficSwarm, EasyHits4U (on the 20 second timer)
& Free Traffic World (first depleting the ads in the CLICK2EARN
section, the best kept secret in the TE universe.
AFFILIATE FUNNEL
Affiliate Funnel keeps a running list of their top 20 Traffic
Exchanges, which fluctuates and is based on a number of factors
including popular voting. You should join AF and make sure you
are a member of the top 20 every week, and when you have sign
ups to your EZ Wealth Solution (or other business) make sure your
referrals join Affiliate Funnel from your referral link, and also join
the top 20 sites. If there are any they are not members of already,
and they join from your Affiliate Funnel page, they will become
your referrals in those exchanges and you will get bonus credits
from their surfing efforts. Go HERE now to join Affiliate Funnel.
GOOD NEWS, BAD NEWS, GOOD NEWS
The good news about TEs is a newbie can jump in and do internet
marketing. The bad news is the exchanges are at the bottom of the
I.M. totem pole. To really advance we need to go beyond the TEs
and learn the other forms and tools of marketing.
There is free training for other forms of marketing in your EZ Wealth
Solution back office. Just log in and click RESELLERS ROOM and
then click MARKETING TIPS.
Of course the best way to promote is to build your own list. You
should definitely get your free Chris Farrell list building videos HERE
This is not to suggest that we ever completely leave the world of
traffic exchanges. No, I'm saying we don't want to always be
spending our precious TIME here. As the money starts flowing,
we will start BUYING traffic and creating a perpetual income
machine that won't take up our time. (As long as you bring in
more money than you paid out in buying the TE hits to your
site(s), then you have a positive feedback loop, or perpetual
income machine. Right?)
Same basic concept with any advertising, including pay per click.
If you pay $100 for an ad campaign that brings in more than
$100, you've cracked the code. Just rinse and repeat.
There's an in between stage that traverses the point where
newbies may be too broke to pay for traffic so they surf
exclusively, and when they quit surfing and start paying
because their time is more valuable. In that time, you want
to start upgrading to give you 1 to 1 surf ratios along with
potentially thousands of bonus credits per month, and also
to generate some monthly residual income, because some
of the TEs generously share their income when your
referrals upgrade along with you.
The obvious question is...
WHICH ARE THE BEST TEs TO UPGRADE IN?
There is one that stands head and shoulders above all others.
TOP SURFER
It's a $10 upgrade and they actually pay 100% commission
for any of your referrals who upgrade. Most of the time they
run a special that includes 4000 bonus hits.
By the way, keep in mind, the deep discounted rate for buying
traffic credits is about a a half peen a hit. So 4000 hits alone is
worth about $20 to $40 for the premium rate.
And get this: If you show your referral page just 70 times a day
(or thereabouts) -- Or a total of 2000 times at any point during
the 35 days of your upgraded membership, and you do not get
your $10 back, by having one referral who upgrades, you will get
an extension of all your benefits, including 1500 credits, every
30 days until you get your $10 investment back.
Are you kidding me?
Other TopSurfer upgraded benefits include FR.EE ebooks,
software, scripts, website templates, newsletter ads and more.
The mind boggles.
THE TRAFFIC WITCH
This site has a top upgrade option that pays 75% Commissions.
It's $17 a month and comes with 1000 credits and 6000 text &
banner impressions as well...And a dynamic surf ratio between
1 to 1 and 1 to 1.5
TRAFFIC SPLASH
This site pays 50% Commissions.on the $10 a month upgrade.
Comes with 500 traffic credits and 5000 banner & test impressons.
This last one is my favorite free site, and although
you only get about a 17% Commission, I'm recommending
it.
TRAFFIC SWARM
This pays on 6 tiers for upgraded members.
So even though it's less than 20% on the first
tier, if you have multiple levels of indirect referrals
it can become lucrative.
But I'm also including them in this list because if you
are actively surfing your limit at TS everyday, you can
generate up to an extra 15,000 bonus credits a month
as a pro member that you couldn't get as a free member.
They up their bonuses hits BIG TIME. Based on a half a
penny a hit (the most I will pay for T.E. traffic), that's an
extra $75 worth of credits.
(Yes, you are putting in your time, but it's still a
good deal if you want to stretch your advertising dollar.)
FREE TRAFFIC WORLD
At the free level you get a .75 surf ratio, or you show your page
3 times for every 4 pages you view. One of the best ratios
out there. But when you upgrade you double that to a
1.5, meaning for every time you view a page you get
to show your 1 and a half times - (Also called a 2 to 3
surf ratio. View 2 ads, show yours 3 times.)
They have the best prices for buying hits to your site, and as
an upgraded member you double your hits in the paid
packages. Outstanding value. No one else comes close.
They have cash surfing prizes that increase for upgrade
members, and their referral commissions increase as
well. And their CLICK2EARN section can get you up
to 15 hits to your site for a single click.
IN CONCLUSION
If you will put in a few hours a day Power Surfing to
build your list you should have a turn around year in
your marketing career.
You need to make a commitment and this is the reason most
people who attempt to make money on the internet, fail to do so.
They are like itty bitty little kiddies in need of instant gratification.
They'll put in a couple hours for several days or even weeks doing
something and when the money doesn't come pouring in they
quit to look for some other program that will be their magic bullet
(when the truth is, possibly any number of programs they've
already joined might of work if they had made the commitment
and stayed with them, instead of being a serial tire kicking
program hopper.)
Power-Surfing might only yield you 1 to 3 subscribers per
day (depending on the time you put into it, but by the end
of a year that could be more than 1000 subscribers and you
can make up to a dollar per month per subscriber, but after
only 1 month it's not going to be that much. So if you quit,
you lose the momentum you built up & you go to your next
project starting with nothing.
(Keep in mind, built into the EZ Wealth Solution is free training
that you could use to go beyond the Traffic Exchanges and
build a list of several thousand per year. )
If you are going to ever make progress in your online business
quests, you will have to let go of this habit of quitting projects
before you gather the needed momentum. It's like building a
high rise. You could spend months on the foundation and
underground structure where it looks like nothing much is
getting done, before the first outward sign of progress is seen.
Without that foundational / structural work, the building can't
be constructed. Imagine a crew doing the ground work and
getting depressed that it's taking so long, and abandoning the
project just to start a new one, down the block, that's going
to need the same preparation time. It's crazy. Right?
If you choose to join under me, I promise to be the sponsor you
always dreamed of, and I will never pressure you to upgrade --
just to do something everyday. I'll teach you everything I know,
and as I learn new skills, I'll share them with you.
Peace & Prosperity,
