New Traffic Secrets 2.0 http://www.newtrafficsecrets2.com Just another WordPress weblog, set up by a user of John Reese's new Traffic Secrets 2.0 course Tue, 09 Mar 2010 12:29:15 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7.1 en hourly 1 how would i create my own traffic exchange site? http://www.newtrafficsecrets2.com/get-site-traffic/how-would-i-create-my-own-traffic-exchange-site http://www.newtrafficsecrets2.com/get-site-traffic/how-would-i-create-my-own-traffic-exchange-site#comments Tue, 09 Mar 2010 12:29:15 +0000 admin http://www.newtrafficsecrets2.com/get-site-traffic/how-would-i-create-my-own-traffic-exchange-site i wanted to create a site, that i can make some money from and i wanted to see what all i need to do, to get my site running, i want to try and make a traffic exchange site, but i do not know what all i need to do

I’m happy to say that I’ve taken about a year and joined some exchanges, met people, made some friends in the industry, and talked with owners because this is something that I want to do sometime next year.

First what these other people who have answered don’t realize is that you need a really good web host. Shared hosting companies will not work because once your exchange takes off and puts a heavy load on their servers, you’ll need a dedicated server or a hosting company that specializes in traffic exchanges. One such company that comes to mind is Zoot Host. http://www.zoothost.com/

Second, if you’re not an artist you’ll have to find a good graphics designer to design your site layout. A good friend of mine is the artist at http://banner-power.com/ She designs entire site / traffic exchange layouts and this is who I will be using someday.

Lastly, you need a good script for your traffic exchange. Most of these are database driven (you can learn it). You purchase the script from a programming company and then upload it to your web host and configure your database. Once installed you have an administrator login and the people who join have user logins. One of the best scripts in the industry for a manual exchange is by a company called Ventrino-Walker. http://www.ventrino.com/

I have a friend who sells exchanges with the hosting, Ventrino script installed, and graphics. He will do as little or as much as you want. Even offers yearly payment plan via Paypal. Just e-mail me through my profile if you want to get in touch with him.

For me, I’m going to try it on my own first and see where it takes me. I hope this post helps. This is based on my experience and my plan on what I will do next year. Look at my links here below. I was even fortunate to get admin rights or partnerships with some of these exchange owners on their exchanges before I am going to run my own. Great OJT training if you ask me.

Anyone know of a good site that does this?

I use a product called Copernic Agent Professional to custom design search parameters that will list websites of different categories so you can see which ones are ranking highest and also use Google Page Rank to get a good idea of the websites success/traffic with just a glance.

In return for adding valuable content, you allowed to add your website link in the resource or bio box at the end of the article. The more articles you write the more links you have to your website. So, it is important to committed at writing articles to article directories (maybe write one article a day ) so you can make the most out of this free marketing method.

3. Submit your Article on Digg: besides article directories, you can expose your article to an online community of Digg addicts looking for something new on Digg.com. Once your article is complete, join digg. com and post your article there.

Getting traffic is a combination of a lot of things. The key to success is to create great content that visitors want to use, search engines will love and other websites will naturally link to. Of course, it’s easier said than done.

You can use pay per click advertising in the search engines to reach audiences looking for your products. You can use Google Adwords http://www.google.com/adwords or Yahoo http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com

Here are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible:

1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.

2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important — and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that’s additional traffic that you get for FREE!

Recommend Site Scripts (various) http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Big Nose Bird Recommend this Site http://bignosebird.com/carchive/birdcast.shtml
CGI Resource Index http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Hostscripts http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Site_Recommendation/index.html

3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.

If you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com’s "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm

4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News.

5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.

Here is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AhzreGmnCUicOoyedqypscUjzKIX?qid=1006022407481

6. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are:

Craigslist http://www.craigslist.com
Google Base http://base.google.com

Pay the search engines to pop your site up before others. It’s called business. That’s how they make money.
