Let's take a closer look at the benefits and downside of traffic exchange surfing.



One thing I have always liked is the Internet makes it possible for anyone to succeed regardless of their current situation. One obstacle that many people face is how to promote their business on a limited budget. This is one of the primary draws of using these exchanges to promote an Internet business. You can actually earn credits to have your ads shown by surfing in viewing other people's ads. Some people actually enjoy this; because it is something they can do and see immediate results. You know that you are earning credits to have your ad viewed by other surfers when you are creating credits yourself.

The best traffic exchanges to use are ones that offer a credit system. As you begin to make money you may want to actually purchase credits and continue to promote your business this way even if you are not surfing. Until you get to that point you want to follow couple of simple strategies when it comes to surfing on these sites.

1. Many of these exchanges offer bonuses where you can earn double credits on certain days. By keeping an eye out for these, you can double your efforts for the same amount of time you put in. Therefore spend your time surfing an exchange program on the days when they have bonuses in effect.

2. Join exchanges programs where you can earn credits for recruiting members. This allows you to increase the number of credits you have without spending more personal time doing it.

3. Use this strategy where you are promoting a splash page or landing page. You can make money promoting lead pages from an affiliate program as well.

The key to this is that people only have a small amount of time to view your ad before they are clicking on the next ad, and therefore will not read a long website or sales page. There are people who have developed a full time income just using traffic exchanges as their method to promote their business. If you will be consistent with it traffic exchange surfing can be a good use of your time as well.
