Welcome

Welcome to my lens!!

Like many people today, I decided to wet my feet in the online marketing arena only to find myself bamboozled by the sheer volume of information available. I also learned quickly that there are many scams out there on the web and, whilst I didn't get burned myself per se, I did end up spending way more money than was healthy.

This all changed when I was introduced to the concept of using Traffic Exchanges to actually make a profit at the same time as promoting my Traffic Exchange Report and now I want to share that experience with others.

Introduction 

I'm going to start by introducing you to the concept of Stacked Income and then I'll talk a bit about Traffic Exchanges. They often get a bad rap or are accused of being ineffective as a marketing medium, but this is usually down to an error in either use or perception and I'll look at this issue too before pointing you in the direction of a one or two of my favourite traffic sources.

My Aim 

Hopefully, by the time you've looked over the page and considered the information, you'll understand more about Traffic Exchanges and what a valuable part of your traffic gaining activities they can be.

This lens should also serve as an illustration of how the use of such exchanges can provide you with both residual income and targeted opt in leads/subscribers.

Leveraging Your Effort and Stacking Your Income 

Working Smart Not Hard

We've all been to a fast food establishment and, on going to pay for our meal, been faced with the question.. "Would you like fries with that?"

When you're asked that, or when you're sold an extended warranty on electrical products you've just purchased, you're experiencing the concept of stacked income in an offline environment.

You've bought something and now you're being sold something else. These are add-on products or services that you may also want.

Online business works just the same way if you're doing it right. How many times have you paid for an ebook or piece of software and then been shown an optional upgrade? Often I'd imagine and it's usually something that will require a monthly or yearly commitment from you.

If you're conducting your own business to maximum effect, then you should be using this technique too. Think of gathering affiliates to sell your own product. 20 people will sell more than you alone can and this is what we mean by stacking your income.

Another example which you'll have come across is viral marketing. Leveraging the efforts of others. You make more money without any extra work, time or effort.

So let's look at just how effective the Traffic Exchanges can be in this process.

Traffic Taxis Blog 

This isn't my blog but it's one that I do find useful. It's owned and run by David Foley, the owner of Traffic Taxis and has a lot of great tips for surfers. Do check it out whether you're a surfer or a TE owner, I'm sure you'll discover something to comment on or add to.

Surfers should pay special attention to the posts on topics such as using text links and splash pages.

Traffic Witch is another exchange I love and upgraded in immediately. The launch was huge, with over 2000 new members in the first 48 hours alone.

Conversion rates are through the roof, referrals are flooding in and with commissions of up to 75%, members are pretty happy! The surfing is smooth, the upgrade packages are excellent and the graphics make the site a pleasure to visit. Did I mention that I really, really like this exchange? !!
