When I first started to learn my way around internet marketing, I came across a variety of Free Traffic Resources. Since I had little money I was willing to risk online, I tried a couple of traffic exchange programs where I would spend 1/2 hour to a couple of hours looking at other people’s ads to build credits so they would look at my ads.
I did my level best not to buy anything from the ads I looked at and for the most part my fellow travelers largely did the same. Now since then I have come to learn that these exchanges actually can work, when an effective back end process is paired to an enticing free offer.
But personally, I didn’t have the patience to waste time scrolling through offers, even when I got things set up to do five different traffic exchanges at the same time. So I pretty much gave up on the entire genre some years back.
Now I know some people who swear by the traffic exchanges, but they generally have developed front and back end offers that work and they buy the clicks rather than earn the free credits. Once you have a handle on how many views it takes to convert into a purchase, it makes sense to do so – as long as the combo turns a profit.
Recently, I have been experimenting with three different systems and my opinions of free traffic generation is going through a reappraisal.
Most recently, I took part in the launch of the newest system out there called the Perfect Traffic Storm. Now I haven’t made a lot of money yet, as it is only a few days old, but I have made my first sales, so I can say I am in the chips.
Perfect Traffic Storm is free to join, and is actually pretty exciting. Here is an example of how it works.
I am actively promoting the 100% Giveaway that opened today. I created a new link in Perfect Traffic Storm by inserting my affiliate link for the Giveaway into the form on the perfect traffic storm page.
Then I used the new url they generated to serve as my hyperlink for the Giveaway. When someone clicks on the hyper link, they are taken to the Giveaway, but at the bottom of the page viewers will see another ad from one of the other advertisers who has an ad in the Giveaway category. This last about 10 seconds at the bottom of the page and is clearly visible but not too obstructive, and then just fades away.
Every time someone clicks on one of my links, I get credits to show my ads on other people’s pages. Like I said, I had my first payoffs already even though I have been using the site for only a couple of days.
To see what the ads look like, click on my link for the 100% Giveaway. Then come back and click on my link for the Perfect Traffic Storm and join it.
I was able to send a twitter broadcast today using the Perfect Traffic Storm link to the Giveaway and got 56 hits that went to the Giveaway which was a good way to promote the Giveaway and Got 168 credits for ads on the Perfect Storm site.
I am pretty sure I will be using these links on a regular basis for my twitter posts, and possible much wider as well. I think you should consider doing so as well.
