When Tezak Traffic Power Launched this summer, I was extremely exited about their innovative “List Ads” feature. Setting one up is as easy as writing a short headline, some brief copy, and pasting in your auto-responder code. The system then rotates your ad (Looks like a classified ad) inside their surfbar while members are surfing for ad credits. If a member clicks your ad, an opt in form appears for them to fill out in order to subscribe to your list.

Until recently, only aweber auto-responders were supported, but thanks to new impovements, a wide variety of aut-responders can be used here. This makes one of my favorite traffic exchanges immensely more effective as with a larger variety of ads in rotation, there is less likelihood of users becoming “numb” to the list ad spaces. I’m already seeing improved opt-in rates and that’s always a good thing.

Are list ads better than squeeze pages? After extensive use of these things, I can’t really say they are better, however marketers on a budget may find them more cost effective as while it takes one credit to get a page view in a traffic exchange, at Tezak Traffic you can exchange 1 credit for 10 list ad impressions. I find myself converting nearly all of my credits into list ad impressions and I’m quite satisfied with the results. If you haven’t tried em out yet, give em a whirl. They’re free to use if you’re willing to surf for credits, but of course you do have the option to buy some if you’re short on time.

Note: Tezak Traffic Power is currently ranked #4 out of 99 exchanges rated weekly by Affiliate Funnel’s “Surfer’s choice” system.

The way it works is sheer brilliance, if you’ve ever taken an online quiz or poll then this will feel really natural for you.  Want to see the report?  You’ll have to fill out the latest survey first.  Once completed (usually takes only a few seconds) you’re instantly shown the results AND awarded a bonus of anything from free advertising credits to cash.

The bonus is a nice touch, but the real value comes from the info in the reports.  Each one is basically a survey of current Traffic taxis members, and each one has different questions in it.  This is an excellent opportunity for you to discover what potential prospects are interested in.  Tailor your ads accordingly and it won’t be long before you’re raving yourself.

Well I certainly hope not considering designing them for others is a significant portion of my income, however after 3 days into to the launch of Tony’s next generation traffic exchange “Tezak Traffic Power” I must admit, I’m a bit worried.

A quick look at this screenshot from my aweber new subscribers report tells the tale tells the tale better than words…

As you can see, I got a HUGE spike in sign ups when TTP Launched.  I can only imagine what those numbers would have looked like I had I remembered to log in a assign more impressions when the first batch ran out.  What’s really killing me is that an ad that was a flop as a squeeze page, is on fire as a trimmed down list ad at Tezak Traffic Power.

What surprises me even more is that in all the buzz around this new exchange there’s been very little mention of how powerful the list ads feature at ttp is.  I’ve honestly never seen a free to use program like this that does so well at bringing in fresh leads.  With over 5,000 people actively surfing ttp in just the first 3 days it doesn’t look like this lead source will be drying up any time soon.  Knowing that Tony has teamed up with affiliate marketing powerhouse Paul Kinder and technical mastermind Tim Rash I have no doubt that this feature will continue to drive in the prospects for years to come.

So to Recap, Here’s the REAL long term benefits as I see them…

• List Ads

• Tony Tezak

• Paul Kinder

• Tim Rash

• Paul Kinder’s famous customer care team we all love from Traffic-Splash (yep, they’re on board too.)

• A Uniquely powerful next generation Traffic Exchange script

No Matter How you look at it, Tezak Traffic Power is a winner, and my new not so secret weapon for increasing my opt-in rate. Hats off Tony, Paul, Tim and the team… you guys have really out done yourselves.

Still on the fence? Try out the list ads at Tezak Traffic Power before you make a judgement. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at your results.

In my opinion, the #1 reason people think affiliate programs are “scams” is the fact that so many go broke when they lose track of all their monthly subscriptions, and when the monthly re-billing goes through, they find themselves slapped with over draft fees, and in some cases, end up losing their bank accounts.  Truly a sad state of affairs, but as of today, help is on the way.

Sunny Suggs, Author of No More No-Script and a plethora of other newbie friendly guides, has just put together the definitive PayPal guide for online business owners.  In true Sunny Suggs fashion, she’s included a ton of Screenshots, complete with arrows pointing to crucial buttons, and clear and simple instructions that ensure it’s easy as can be to take control of your outgoing AND incoming funds.

This one is quickly going on my “must have” list and I’m sure you can see why.  Is there anything more important to your business than knowing how to keep track of your money?  Personally, I like getting paid.  I like being able to cancel a subscription that I don’t need with a couple of mouse clicks too.  Even better, I like being able to recommend free info to my newbie friends, and this one meets my 3 top criteria.  Useful info, Easy to follow, and 100% free to download.

The basic principle behind the system is this.  You take whatever current website you are promoting, and plug it into the WTJ system.  The system generates a custom link for you which displays your ad, with a small, slide in ad window in the lower right corner.  The ad window contains 3 member ads, and a link to Web Traffic Juggernaut with your referral id embedded.  Now each time your site is displayed with the ad window in place, you earn “credits” which are spent displaying your ad in an ad window on other member’s sites.  But the real power comes from the viral nature of this program…

By referring others, you earn more credits for each display of your referrals links.  So you’re not only earning ad displays from your own efforts, but from those of your downline as well.  The system also guarantees you referrals even if you do NOTHING but remain a member.  the call it a “dual matrix” and basically what that means is that new members who join the program directly spill into the downlines of current members.  Is that crazy or what? 48 hours in and yes, I’m allready seeing residual traffic coming in from my downlines.

One aspect I feel I should mention is the ability to email your downline.  I didn’t even realize this was included until I stumbled onto it earlier today.  As a gold member, you can email your downline once every 7 days.  If you upgrade, you can mail your downline 3 levels deep.  Personally, I think if you use this feature, use it to mail out your lead capture page and add subscribers to your list.  Sure this program looks like it’s going to be around for years to come, but best to rely on your own list 1st.

So it’s still early, but so far I’m really digging this system.  referrals are coming easy, and the traffic has the potential to reach all corners of the web, not just traffic exchanges.  I do love exposure.

Once you get inside Robin’s Exchange, it’s clear that a lot of time and effort has been put into making the site easy to navigate, and setting up your ad campaigns is quite simple as well.  I think what stands out the most is the larger than average surf bar images which are easy to make out, and will surely be a welcome improvement to anyone with failing eyesight.

Mr. Bouwhuis seems to be taking his member’s best interest to heart, encouraging surf activity with a number of generous surf rewards including Super Surf Saturday and Sunday, Wipe Out Wednesday’s and some generous credit rewards in the surfbar if you’re paying attention.

So far so good Mr. Bouwhuis, Easy Surf Exchange is off to a great start!

Review of Easy Surf Exchange on Tim Linden’s Blog.

Since the first website traffic exchange went online nearly a decade ago, We have seen countless variations of the original manual traffic exchange model. As competition among an ever growing number of exchanges heats up, innovation is at an all time high.

Traffic exchange ranking systems on the other hand, have essentially remained the same. In most cases the rankings have been based on some organizations stats and figures, maybe some opinion thrown in for good measure, while we the surfers put blind faith in the stats and experiences of these 3rd parties.

Last week marked the beginning of a long overdue change in the way exchanges are ranked. The hardworking team over at Affiliate Funnel launched their brand new member based ranking system for traffic exchanges. Affilliate Funnel members can now rate each exchange listed in the AF database with a score from 1-10. At the end of each week, points are tallied and the best of the best rise to the top.  Truly a useful tool and a welcome addition to this already powerful free downline builder.

Now, anyone with experience in the exchanges will tell you, no ranking system should dictate your advertising focus. Rather you should track your own results and promote in exchanges that give you the best results. But until now, there has never been a better starting point for your tracking efforts than the top sites in the AF ranker. Why? Well, it only makes sense that sites receiving the most votes would have the most active members using them doesn’t it. I mean, why would you vote for a site you don’t even use? So it’s safe to assume that if you promote in a site that ranks high at AF, there should be a lot of eyes waiting to see your ads. More eyes = more possible conversions wouldn’t you think?

So, If you were under a rock these past couple of weeks and have yet to check out the new and improved Affiliate Funnel, go ahead and have a look here. Don’t forget to Vote!

With Steve Ayling’s latest creation that’s exactly what you’ll be doing. Once you’ve set the system up, it really is as simple as promting a single page. Your referrals join your mailing list, as well as a variety of traffic exchanges and other programs beneath you. Steve has made the entire process ridiculously simple which means your downlines will have no trouble doing the same. It’s this viral aspect of the service that ensures long term benefits for those wise enough to take advantage.

So can you believe it’s free? Yeah… I was suprised too.

I almost forgot to mention that Steve is paying out %25 commission on the one time offer.

So lets break it down to the bullet points shall we?

• Builds your mailing list. If the program disappears, your subscribers are still yours.
• Builds your downlines in not only traffic exchanges, but a few commission earners as well.
• Opportunity to earn commissions from the one time offer while doing both of the above.
