Some thoughts about Traffic Exchanges...

I've been promoting and participating in a number of traffic exchanges over the last 7 = months or so...
 
I'm discovering that there are certain aspects of using them which the average user either doesn't understand or is unwilling to submit to...
 
The term "Traffic Exchange" is pretty self explanatory, you surf other websites (usually for "credits") and in exchange the system will direct its other members to your site(s)... maybe... up until about 3 weeks ago I opted to "purchase" the credits necessary to keep the exchanges going instead of surfing for the credits (I'm a very busy man, not a lot of time to spare for surfing), This option is OK for a while, but depending on the price for your credits, can get too expensive to justify, which is where I am at now, I've had to cut advertising expenses WAY back. The point I'm trying to make is that most of the services I've used are great at what they promise, more traffic, but you have the option to surf for your credits or purchase them.
 
Let me take just a minute and point out something else that the average user doesn't usually understand as well... the actual traffic that is generated to your site is usually in much too much of a hurry to actually stop and have a look at your pitch. It is mainly composed of other marketers that are surfing only to get more credits hoping that you will stop at their site and look at their own pitch, you've only got about 10 seconds to capture their attention and convince them to have a closer look at what your pitch is about...
 
All in all, I'm very pleased with the result of my efforts in these exchanges:
