Why Traffic Exchange Websites Will Not Build Your Online Business

By Russell Howe


When looking for tips on how to build an income online via an affiliate program such as Empower Network or Global Domains International, it is not uncommon to hear people talk of using a traffic exchange service. In today's review we'll reveal why that's exactly what you should not be doing.

Many areas of online business are misleading and this is one of the biggest culprits. Often billing itself as a miracle solution to your home business problems, it leads to very little benefit. [

By targeting their marketing towards those who are looking for a 'magic formula' or a 'secret website' to help them become their own boss overnight, these services have managed to survive for almost a decade despite returning very small results to users.

If you are not sure what one of these websites actually does, here is an explanation:

Each member gets to put their own advert into a rotation. Each time you watch an advert you earn a credit. The more credits you earn, the more times you can put your own ad into the rotation for other members to see.

Undoubtedly you can already see why they don't work, but with a little marketing spin you can really sell one of these to folks who are new to the industry. On the surface, it appears everybody who sees your advert is interested in what you have to offer because they're already an affiliate marketer.

If it looks too good to be true it probably is, of course. That certainly rings true right here.

There are a few reasons why these programs fail to generate any success. Firstly, it is terribly tedious and defeats the object of why most people decide to become their own boss in the first place.

Primarily, every person using the website already has their own internet business because that is the reason they joined the service in the first place. When somebody is looking to join an opportunity they don't sign up to one of these services and scroll through the ads, they do research on search engines, social media and Youtube. They eyes which are looking at your advert have very little interest in it, other than the fact it earns them a credit.

One of the most popular methods to kill the tedious nature of clicking adverts and waiting for timers to expire is to open multiple programs and scroll between them, earning credits on each of them simultaneously. By the time the clock on the first advert has reached zero, you have set the other 4-5 websites counting down too, allowing you to continuously scroll and not actually look at any of the advertisements. The thing is, everybody else is doing this as well so your advert is not being seen by anybody.

While taking out a premium membership would cure the boredom of needing to click on adverts for hours as you earn credits manually, it doesn't solve the second issue. What is the point in having 10,000 credits in your account if nobody is even looking at your advert in the first place? There is none.

To put it bluntly, if you are serious about making money via the internet and becoming your own boss you can find far superior advertising resources for your business than a traffic exchange service. Companies like Empower Network and Global Domains International are full of affiliates who still believe this to be an effective way to market their business and, despite years of poor results, carry on with the same strategy. Learn from their mistakes and put your attention to more effective, less time consuming methods.
