Surfers Suck Yes Probably Includes Your Credits Too

FOUR monkeys tell it like it isearning creditsSurfing is nobody’s favorite past time by a long shot but it is an evil necessity in order to keep effective advertising on the move in both Traffic Exchanges
and in credit mailers.

Credits are the lifeblood of a traffic exchange and mailers. You can spend hours surfing for them,

  • clicking links in emails for them
  • building strong downlines
  • earning credits for their surfs
  • setting a standard for your subscribers

Absence hardly makes the heart grow fonder, unless they use your absence to excuse theirs? Not a good leader character reference in my book.

I can afford to buy credits. I set my membership up in my top 10 Traccif
exchanges in order to never have to surf. I am upgraded in them too where that means I own a wee bit of accountability to my followers. I surf to maintain the motivation they need.

Not everyone can afford to buy credits. Not everyone has had the time to build strong downlines so the credits earned from your subscribers feed the need and keep your advertising on the move.

Surfing for credits are also the lifeblood of your advertising because they determine the benefits you get back for your efforts.The more credits you have,

  • the more you can assign to your promotions
  • the more visitors to your website
  • As a bonus they can increase your email click throughs

Of course, there are two ways you can get credits … you can earn them, or you can buy them. Earning them requires spending your valuable time whereas buying them requires spending your money.

When you don’t appear to have either, then time to cut back, organize and focus on where you need to be surfing and earning sufficient credits for effective advertising. This is where you need to be building strong down
lines by advertising for new members in your top ten TEs.

Here comes that dirty word – checklist – this time defining daily actions of where and when you need to be surfing.

  • – How many TEs to be respectful in expectations of those you want to support you.
  • – How many credits you need to bonus your slower or best downline surfers.
  • – How many sites you need to surf to win a prize that will lessen your surfing stress.
  • – How many credits to maintain a standard your downline can
    depend on.

Without some form of plan, checklist or guide to your daily surfing actions, then it becomes easy enough to slip in to the category of your surfing sucks!
Each new subscriber has their dreams of a strong downline, of clicking for the right amount of credits to promote their pages, products and banners.

By sharing what you know about surfing skills to earn credits with the least
amount of time involved, will make you popular with your subscribers and
keep them motivated to reach their credit needs.

Something to think about?

Lightning Quick Think Tank Traffic

FransFracturedwashington storm over traffic “Storms never last do they baby. Bad times all pass with the wind.” ~~ Mel Tillis

There are times when the weather man is right. Doubtful those times will every really be appropriate. Nevertheless we make it through. Last night was one of those times as the night sky presented a myriad of lightning shapes, thunder rolled its appreciation and the rain came tumbling down on buildings and traffic.

Me, myself and I decided we could curse the storm or put it to good
use. Choosing the latter, we had a cool think tank on traffic issues.

Traffic Is People

We tend to forget that fact.  Just like cars don’t drive themselves, it
takes people to get them in motion. I want a traffic grid for my online
sales and conversion needs. I want LA at peak traffic time streaming
across my website. I want traffic clogging up my mail box and keeping
me in tune with good automated messages that make them happy they
stopped by.

Three Necessary Traffic Strategies

The easy part is the control part. Catch up with old friends who
originally made up the better part of all subscribers lists. People
who gave me their support when I needed it.

In the rush to make your mark, it is easy enough to become disengaged
from these people, just as it is easy for them. Life goes on and we
move on. Not necessarily in the same direction or for the same reasons.

Test #1: Survey the inactive list

This does not always work because the very subscribers you need to
reach may not be opening their mails to receive the survey. With bit
of thinking, you might improve open statistics.

Test #2 Keep in mind the session on email deliverability issues.

Because the next step is to create some engaging emails. But first you
need to get them on a list that says they want them.

Test #3 Try an email that allows subscribers to reset their preferences
or that expects them to tap a link to continue to receive updates.

Traffic Strategy #2

This one creates a love hate relationship. You love a clean responsive
list but you hate removing the traffic deadwood.

When all else fails trim the fat! The open values caused by the lack
of subscriber responses is not impressing your ISP nor it is helping
you for future sends. No matter what you try, when the response is
zero,then accept the fact, these people are clearly not interested in
your content or products. Give them fair warning about what is going
to happen. They are about to be eliminated.

Try a ‘trim the fat ‘page for company TEs. Surfers may not pay timely
attention to their mail boxes but it is highly unlikely they will miss that
page warning! Get creative! This same page can bring you in
new subscribers with a bit of thinking.

Traffic Strategy #3 It’s All About You!

Time to take a hard look at how you present content. Who are you
following? Whose style grabs you till it hurts? Makes you wish you
too could look at and take the actions that hurtle them into growth
spurts you can only dream about?

Style takes time to create. These people were not born with their
ability to reach out and touch their markets. They work hard to
develop the right touch at the right time. Two power words head
their priority list of actions – research and test! Little bites
first looking for feed back and reactions. Then research, rewrite
and test a wee bit more. Finally what has been missing falls into
place.

Nobody knows you better than you do! Set attainable goals. Make
them little steps that present results you can measure. Map out an
action plan and follow it. Remember research and test. Then you are
ready to adjust the action plan.
