Effectively Using Free Manual Traffic Exchanges

Free manual traffic exchanges are very efficient to use if you know how.  They are used infrequently compared to search engines and blogs but traffic exchanges can be effective when you use them properly and are consistent in using them.

Most people do not realize how potentially valuable a free manual traffic exchange can be for them. It basically is a full page classified traffic system that is high speed, instant-on, and on demand. It quickly tests your headlines, copy, web colors and business.

Whether or not you have used a traffic exchange before, you may not be aware of a couple of insider techniques which have been proven to effectively use them.

The first thing you must do is to use a tabbed browser like Firefox. It will allow you to open five exchanges at a time and to do your surfing. This will also allow people to look at your pages when you look at theirs. You will need to test which exchanges are the best by determining which ones deliver a constant and steady flow of traffic. You then should join at least five of them.

Create a splash page, one that is a special fast loading page, before you enter any URL into the traffic systems. It should load in no more than 2-10 seconds. When you create your splash page, make sure that it targets your market and will help you to collect leads.

Following are some key components to creating a splash page:

--Include your photo. People want to see who they are doing business with and that it is not just a     web site. It is network marketing-you want to get to know each other.

–Use your full name with your phone number, area code and country. You do not want to lose       any potential customers by not allowing them to get in touch with you for more information.

–Grab their attention with a catchy headline. Use words to show the urgency of subscribing now.     For example- “Get Started Right Away!” Use bright colors like red for the headline and blue for    sub headings.

–Tell them what their biggest benefit of joining you will be. Use a short list of three or four top          benefits in a bulleted list. Don’t waste their or your time and money by making lengthy lists.

–Do not use audio or video that immediately begins when the user opens the page. You may lose      potential customers this way.

–Offer something free to the visitors when they take action immediately-possibly a free-to-join    program or download, or a viral branded e-book.

Most people who say that free manual traffic exchanges don’t work for them just have not used them long enough. Besides using it everyday consistently, you must not give up after a month or two. You must be dedicated to increasing your traffic every day. It is critical that you surf every day. As the traffic increases to your sites, you will also build your downlines in associated programs. A portion of you credits can be used for banner impressions on the individual networks you will be using. The responses from the banners of what you are promoting in the traffic exchange systems tend to be higher and are more often responded to than in dedicated banner exchanges.

No matter what source of marketing you choose, they all will take commitment and time if they are to be effective. Traffic exchanges can increase your business in less than a year if you are dedicated, determined and persistent. Most of all, they produce leads and get you and your business in the community of web surfers. By applying the above components to your marketing strategy, you will see success in your business. Free manual traffic exchanges can work for you.
