Free Traffic Exchanges vs. Paid Autosurf Programs
by: Andrew Daigle
There are two types of web site traffic exchanges available today. One is called a Free Traffic Exchange and the other is a Paid Autosurf. These are two completely different services. If you understand the differences between them, you can use both to your advantage.
A free traffic exchange is one of the better ways for web site owners to get free website traffic to their sites or affiliate marketing campaigns. Free Traffic Exchanges allow you to manually surf other members websites, and for each viewing, you get so many of your own URLs and banners added into the rotation for other members to see. There are hundred of free traffic exchanges online today, and each one has thousands of members surfing each day. That’s a lot of potential traffic you can get for little or no cost for your advertising efforts. All you need to do is spend some time surfing the exchanges to get credits for your websites to be viewed by thousands of potential customers.
Paid Autosurf programs pay members a fee for surfing websites in their exchange. Their hope is that as you surf, you will be interested in their client’s offers and make a purchase or at least let them capture your e-mail address so they can try to up-sell you later. Also, as the name “Autosurf” would indicate, you do not have to view each website as they rotate. You could click on the surf button and walk away for 5 minutes until the autosurf session is complete.
The benefits of these two services depend on what your main objective is. If you want to advertise your website or affiliate program, you are much better off joining a free traffic exchange. If you want to earn money each day and could care less about advertising anything, you would be better of joining a Paid Autosurf program. Free traffic exchanges all but force members to view each and every website they visit and require them to manually click after viewing each one. These manual traffic exchanges have somewhat of a captive audience. For free members to get their websites shown in rotation for other members to see, they must surf the exchange, one website at a time. This is one of the best ways to very cheaply get your website or promotion in front of many potential customers.
