One To Click On by Jon

Welcome to the new issue of Hit Exchange News!

I'm baaacccck! Wow, what an incredible week I had. I hope everyone got to watch the live stream of the Dallas Seminar. What a blast it was to be there and potentially be part of the next step in internet marketing seminars. The entire thing was broadcast live on the net for everyone to watch. (I even got some camera time *lol*)

And talk about 'traffic exchange-centric'. Out of the dozen speakers, only 2 or 3 of them did not mention traffic exchanges in one form or another. What a difference a year makes. Last year's event in Dallas you could not mention a traffic exchange without some smart alleck comments about them.

To each and every owner, surfer and enthusiast of this amazing industry, thank you for everything you have done. We are finally breaking into the 'other side' of net marketing and people are starting to see the power of these programs.

I had hours upon hours of discussions with all the big name people at the event and they are all ears now when it comes to this business. The proof is evident, it's here and it's time to make some serious noise. The traffic exchange industry could quite possibly be one of the best forms of advertising known to 'net marketers'....But we have known this for years haven't we? =)

Thank you very much for being a subscriber and enjoy Hit Exchange News!

The News

• Congratulations to Smiley Traffic for reaching a very impressive milestone this past week. It's been online now for 3 years now. Not too shabby for a traffic exchange that had it's Pay Pal account shut down. Congrats Mr. Smiley sir!
• 5000 members in less than...4 months? Dragon Surf is absolutely one of the best new exchanges to come online in quite sometime. This impressive milestone of 5000 members in less than half a year is something that is rare in this day and age of traffic exchanges. Congrats to Soren and the entire Dragon Surf family!

The HEN Top Ten results are based on traffic statistics (unique hits, traffic flow, hits delivered, traffic quality) and a touch of good old fashioned 'opinion'. The industry changes just like in the real world, so an exchange may not be on the list this week, but will be number 1 next week! Discuss this week's Top 10 list in the Net Marketing Forum!

Hey Jon, how come I Love Hits, Click Crazey and SWAT Traffic are never on the top 10 list? Since I own them, I feel it would be a conflict of interest to place it on any of my rankings. If you want to see how well they are performing each week, please check TestHoopla top 20 weekly ranking!

Deep Thoughts - Feature Articles

Focus Focus Focus...That dirty 'F' word!

Did we forget the 'f word' from 2006? It seems so. In Dallas this past week even though there was a lot of talk of starting new projects and building new businesses, the word of the day continued to be focus. And for good reason.

I have been trying to focus my energy and business into one section of the internet, the traffic exchanges. Sure I branch out from time to time and dabble in other things, but the biggest chunk of my time, energy and money remains focused in the traffic exchange industry and letting the world know how good it is to be involved with it. What does this do for me?

Sure, it makes me a good living and this is the direct result of keeping focused on my goals. One thing is all I focused on and that was the 'T.E.'s'. And this is just one example. Focusing your time and energy into one business is not the 'sexy' result people hear about online. They here of thousands of Ad Sense sites generating them incomes. They hear of mailing lists responsible for millions of dollars in revenue. Let's face it, remaining focused in itself is a challenge in this day and age.

It's not a secret, it's not a hidden gem that only a few people know about. However it's responsible for the majority of income generated online. Keep your focus, lazer target it and sustain it. Good things are sure to follow!

Program Review - Traffic Bunnies

It's the Walker Script invasion! And a few years ago, a lot of us would have argued that this was a problem. Lots of scripts, not a lot of quality owners. But with solid programs like Savvy Clicks and Real Hitz 4 U, times have changed and Traffic Bunnies is one of those programs leading the charge for the most popular commercial script on the net.

I'll be honest, I just recently joined this program. So while I cannot comment on the 'results' of the T.E.'s, I can say that the owner behind this program 'gets it'. Traffic Bunnies has a really cool design. It's simple and fun and looks like it could cater to quite a few people not only in the T.E. world but also perhaps in the PTC realm as well. Traffic Bunnies' admin is also lightning quick at customer support as all requests are handled in a short amount of time.

With a solid owner, the program will do good. It's that simple really. When you have a solid foundation, everything else fits so well together.

Things That Make You Go...Hmmm? (A 'Different' Look at the Industry!)

• Smiley Traffic Newsletters - I don't know whether or not to laugh or cry when I read them. One thing is for sure, they drop my jaw each and every week. Hmmm....
• T.E. Owners...Look out for the 'i frame gangs', they are back! Hmmm....
• Wolf Surfer's got a new owner. It's time to show and prove that this program can be a huge force in the industry! Hmmm....
