Traffic From Traffic Exchanges

How valuable is the traffic you receive from using a traffic exchange site? This topic is very debatable in many circles. I, for one, have found the traffic to be very valuable. But, what is even more important is the contacts I am making by using different traffic exchange sites.

There are a lot of traffic exchanges which now have a side bar chat. You can surf for traffic while chatting with other members of the exchange. I have learned a lot of priceless information by watching, listening, and chatting with others.

I have been a member of Thumbvu for over a year. It is a unique traffic exchange where you can actually pick which site you view from 3 different "thumbnails". (Thus the name) A few months ago the owner, John Guanzon, added the chat feature to his site. I have always enjoyed surfing Thumbvu but now it is an even better. I can get credits for my sites while chatting with other Thumbvu members. It's called Social Networking and it Works!

If you are not a member of Thumbvu, I urge you to try it. You can even join for free.

Working In The Background

Busy, Busy, Busy, that is what the life of a true Internet Marketing has become. There is no working 1 hour a day and making $10grand a month. It just doesn't happen, at least, not for anyone I know personally. Recently, I have been revamping my advertising campaigns. I am trying to include all my money making and advertising resources in one opt in campaign. This will be an opt in for those who want to follow what I do online monthly to make a positive cash flow.

So, I'm still here. I am working diligently in the background. Tweaking, sorting, exploring, inventing, and brain storming. Stay tuned for interesting things to come.

Nothing I Hate More Than OTO's

Joining a new program can be fun but there is nothing I hate more than getting the OTO (one-time-offer) before you are even know information about the program you are joining. I guess we are just supposed to take it on blind faith that the program being offered is something we can't live without. Wouldn't it be better to give us a sneak peak before you start trying to get in to our wallets? I know this has turned me off a few program and I just didn't join at all.

What's, also, annoying is when the OTO becomes a series of 3 or 4 more chances at the same offer. If you say ONE TIME, then please only offer it ONE TIME. The fact you call me names or tell me I am passing a fabulous deal will not change my mind. What will change my mind is getting a look at Quality Content. Show me something I can use and then maybe I will be willing to make a purchase.

There's an idea: Offer a price, show the product, and then give the OTO. I want to know what I am purchasing before I commit my hard earned cash to a program. Just my opinion, what do you think?

I LOVE Getting Paid

There is nothing better than GETTING PAID!
I am sure everyone will agree with that statement.

GetBuxToday - 8 Days After Launch

8 Days after Brian Rooney, the co-owner of Traffic Wave, shocked the Internet Marketing World by launching a Pay To Click (PTC) Site, where is the program now? GetBuxToday has 24,000 members and the site has paid out $6283 at the time I am writing of this blog post. Not bad for a weeks worth of work.

For those of you who may not know, Traffic Wave is a well established online business which has been operating for over 10 years. Brian Rooney is a well respected marketer and businessman. This is obvious by the response to the launch of his PTC Program GetBuxToday. Many people who usually shy away from PTC programs are jumping on board this one. That includes me. As soon as I heard Brian Rooney was the owner, I couldn't join fast enough. Of course, the fact he was giving away free 30 day premium upgrades to the first 5000 members was pretty good motivation, as well.

I want to point out, there are PTC sites popping up all over the place. Please take due diligence and investigate before joining any new programs. If you find one with an owner like Brian Rooney, then jump in with both feet. Otherwise, use caution and make sure the program is legitimate or has been operating successfully for some extended period of time. The test of time is one of the best variables when recognizing a solid program.

It looks like Pay To Click Programs are here to stay. These are slow growing money makers which will pay off for those people who are persistent and use a renting referrals strategy. If that is you, then jump on board with a proven owner at GetBuxToday.

And Then There Is Life

I have been working online for over a year now. I still learn something new each day. One of the biggest things I have learned is to build relationships. People want to do business with people they trust.

I have to admit, I feel, I have been very lucky. I have become acquainted with several wonderful people. Some of these people I work with on a daily basis and some I just chat with once in a while. Yesterday, one of my favorite people was struck with some very bad news. Her father unexpectedly passed away. My mind began to race about what could I do to help. The truth is, I am miles away, and although we speak daily online, how is it possible for me to be the shoulder to lean on during this time of sorrow. So, I will pray and I will hope you know how much I truly care about you and your family. May God bring you strength.
