Training Series - Part 1

I am putting in these blog posts so that subscribers can have an easy way to get a COMPLETE overview of Power Traffic and come back anytime.

Hi,

First of all, I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for subscribing. This will be a short series that I put together from my own experience of what works for me. Check out the series and you can choose whether this is right for you or not. I will share my complete business building plan and show you how to start earning with it right away. It will take you a little bit of time and effort to get setup, but remember that anything worth value is worth putting your time into!

My disclaimer is simply this: I don't have "The Answer" - I don't find online marketing to be particularly easy. It's work and if you think you'll become rich in a week, stop fooling yourself. However, what this WILL do is give you a rock solid foundation for generating traffic and begin building a real online business.

Experts estimate that a new person looks into making money online Every 2 Minutes. That is a staggering number! Did you know that 97% of them fail? It can be very frustrating and I have almost quit a few times myself.

This will give you some tools that will help you get passed the learning curve and give you a very solid foundation for building traffic and getting prospects for whatever business you choose. I have been involved with over 20 different affiliate programs myself. I started in February 2008 and my first 6 months I invested a lot of time, money and resources. For the most part, all I really got were great "lessons".

That's about as much of a speech as I can give you. I'm going to dive right into the training series so you can get going right away. Please don't get overwhelmed! There will be a lot of stuff here but just take your time and do it step by step.1st thing you need to do is get yourself a Rotator. You will be using 1 rotator on all your traffic exchanges. A rotator is essentially a tool you can use to add any website address you want, and assign it a weighted value. The higher the value, the more of your hits get sent to that particular site.

The best thing about a rotator though is that it makes your life a LOT easier. Instead of running around changing your websites at 10 different exchanges, you just change your rotator. Whatever your rotator is set to will AUTOMATICALLY update all your exchanges for you. This is a great tool to have and I wish I had found one earlier in my marketing career - It would have saved me a LOT of time!

First, join TrackThatAdFor the purposes of this email series, you only need the 1 rotator.

For starters you will need your rotator URL - It will look like http://www.trackthatad.com/?s=xxxxx (with the xxx's being YOUR personal rotator number). We are going to enter our rotator as our Main URL on ALL Traffic Exchanges.Using 1 rotator is going to allow you to maximize your advertising efforts. Traffic Exchanges are simply a numbers game - A rotator will allow you to focus your efforts to the sites that perform the best for you.Also, if the exchange only allows 1 url (like WebBiz Insider) then you just enter your rotator as the 1 site. Anyway, I'm probably going on and on, but once you use one and have to change things 1 time, you'll see how useful this is.Now that you have your rotator, it's time to setup (or update) your traffic exchanges.Whether you are brand new to traffic exchanges, or consider yourself a veteran, I want you to read my blog post on Beginners Guide to Traffic Exchanges. You can find it here. I have my own "top 5" exchanges to join. My top 5 is based on simply this: The Most Credits for your TIME (not money - I will get to spending later)

My best recommendation for doing this completely free is to join Traffic Hoopla. They update the top 25 traffic exchanges on a weekly basis. You should use them and join a few exchanges from there. Again, I recommend my blog post for beginners - EasyHits4U, HitSafari, WebBiz Insider, Traffic-Splash and 4x4 Hits are some of my favorites and you will get the best surfing ratio and quality traffic for your time. Make sure your getting at least a 2:1 surf ratio though. If you join Hits2U (always highly ranked) you get a 3:1 ratio (meaning you surf 3 sites and get 1 hit for yours) - DO NOT SPEND YOUR TIME AT A 3:1 EXCHANGE. They are very good exchanges, but not unless you are getting a good surfing ratio.

You need to download Firefox and learn how to surf with what is called Multi Tab Browsing - This sounds complicated, but it's really very easy to learn. Download Firefox, type in the address for 1 exchange and log in. Then, just go to FILE and open a new tab. Open your next exchange and log in. Rinse & Repeat. Personally, I get the most surfing done with 8 pages. You can open 12 or more, but with 8 you will be able to get through the pages faster - This will help you REALLY rack up credits. Surfing 8 pages on Firefox means your basically getting 8x the results, with the same effort. Start with 3 or 4 to get the hang of it, but add more as you learn it. For me, I'm able to get almost 800 credits each hour of surfing (overall).

This is the only way to surf anymore. We need massive credits to generate traffic. You need to get those credits as efficiently as possible. Don't go so fast that you miss your bonus credits though. Make sure you can at least see what's going on :)

If you use Traffic Hoopla consistently you can start generating 10k hits/month, but it will take you some time. In my opinion, time is money. You can choose how to spend either.

The option I like, if you can afford it, can start sending 10 - 15,000 hits per month (or more) to your site, Right Away. Without advertising you will get very few results...and then you will quit (like 97% of online marketers). I have wasted a couple thousand in online advertising that got me ZERO results over a 3 or 4 month period.

What I will show you will cost you $54 to start and will start getting you results almost immediately. That is a very small amount to pay when it basically covers your advertising costs for a couple months. Once you start getting referrals and leads, you are much more likely to stick with your online business. Please name me 1 other business you can start (effectively!) for $50? It took me 5 months and a LOT of frustration before I started figuring anything out. This can help you right away.

What I recommend is Home Income Team and their Traffic Exchange Pro Upgrade. Sign up as a free member and get the First Offer for Traffic Exchange Pro Upgrades at 7 different, QUALITY exchanges - This is $54 and gives you a pro upgrade at 7 different exchanges - Most of which are 3 months. This will enable you to get 40,000 visitors to your site, for a 1 time fee.

This is the best deal regarding traffic exchange advertising that I have found.

Join Home Income Team and get the Traffic Exchange Pro Upgrade Here

The main reason I recommend the Home Income Team Upgrade is because it saves you MASSIVE TIME. You get 40k hits to your sites AND the Pro 1:1 surf ratios. Meaning you get twice as much traffic (at least) as surfers who are free members. Using Traffic Hoopla is a good free way to generate traffic, but with the Home Income Team offer you will save yourself Hours & Hours & Hours of surfing time. You will be able to plug in your Track that Ad rotator immediately and start driving large amounts of traffic THIS WEEK.

It is up to you, but in my experience this is the quickest way to get big traffic.

SO, Spend tonight getting your rotator and adding JUST your rotator to whatever exchanges you are a member of (or join some new ones)

The next email will be about What we want to advertise and how to use our traffic exchanges as effectively as possible. But I know that setting up your traffic exchanges will take you some time. Believe me that it is time well spent!

More to come...
