The News
- The Super Surfer script continues to push forward and our latest addition was a brand new e-book written by Sunny Suggs and it focuses on giving members a complete A to Z guide to using the script. What’s even better? You can re-brand the entire report for free and give it away as a promotion tool. Be sure to grab your copy here!
- Fresh off the press, Promo Lotto has just added a brand new ‘chat feature’ to their surf bar. This is very similar to Lords of Traffic’s in which members can chit chat while surfing. I love these things, it gives a real sense of community to the traffic exchange. And hey, these are in fact advertising communities. Very cool new feature!
- Justin Ledvina’s Shark Frenzy graphic package has been the talk of many traffic exchange users and owners during the past few days. Mainly, because of the funniest video in the history of pre-sale videos that can be found on the one time offer when you join. As for the product? Well, if you know Justin’s Shark Studios, you know it screams quality. Oh yeah, and it’s free, that’s always a good thing.
- Want to win your own copy of the best selling traffic exchange book on Amazon.com, Hits, Clicks and Misses, (actually, it’s the only published book about T.E.’s on the planet), simply post a comment about this week’s issue of HEN! Congratulations to ‘Max Jones’ for winning last week. Be sure to send your mailing address to me so that I can ship you a copy (hitexchangenews at yahoo dot com)!
- Splash Page Hall of Fame – Oh duck duck goose! Traffic At The Races does it again with a splash page only a mother could love *lol* Some people say it’s ‘annoying’, I say kudos for doing osmethign different! Note: Why do I focus on splash pages every week? Simple, you MUST be using them in the traffic exchanges to get results. Get a custom made splash page by clicking here!

Question: Hey Jon, how come I Love Hits, SWAT Traffic and Click Crazey 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. (But we all know how great they are anyways lol)

Deep Thoughts – Jon’s Weekly Rambling
Don’t Wanna Update Your Members? You Lose A Subscriber!
Interesting situation arose this past month. I have put in place a strict way of doing business when it comes to traffic exchanges and upgrading in them. You see, I love this business and REALLY love spending money with other traffic exchange owners. I’m from the school of thought that if we all make a lot of money, we will all benefit down the road and the industry will grow.
Here’s the problem, when exchange owners completely abandon their program and do not send updates, re-design the site, are active in the industry, or promote their own business in the other traffic exchanges.
I recently downgraded in a few traffic exchanges that I feel aren’t at the levels they used to be, some of these programs were a one time the most innovative in the industry but for whatever reason, the owners have abandoned them. No updates, no new features, nothing. If you are reading this, are an exchange owner and I have recently downgraded…This article is about you.
Want to keep my money in your pocket? Update your members, promote your traffic exchange and be visible in this industry. As more and more educated owners come into the business, some of the old work horses need to step their game up to compete…

Things That Make You Go Hmmm…
- Top 1 Surf’s ad copy sure does look like I Love Hits’? Hmmm…
- Sneaky sneaky! Affiliate Funnel is about to blow the roof off the traffic exchanges!
- Had a hard time with splash page of the week, but this has got to be squeeze page of the year!

For what it’s worth, I personally use Martin Laine’s WordPress Audio plugin (on my non-wordpress websites) which I think looks nicer and is free.
Cast your bread upon the waters ….
Very interesting comments and things to learn. I see where your mind is and that is the sign of a leader. Keep up the good work. To the HEN.

Hi Jon,
Promo Lotto has had a chat feature since it launched in late July.
However, up until recently, it was limited to Bubbles (teams) only.
So what we did was added a toggle feature so you can now chat with anyone or just your bubble for a private conversation or even do both at the same time.

Ahhh my fault.
Great feature though.
No worries at all. Thanks for the mention!
Some Great info. there, Thanks a bunch!
Dave.
Ryan’s TE is a breath of fresh air and I have really enjoyed surfing and ordering on his page. The new chat feature has been great and I am already chatting it up in there. Keep up the great work Ryan!
Still trying to get audio on my web site lol having issues getting the mp3 to convert over to swf and play without chipmunk like audio. I am working with Web Audio Plus would applicate any help.
Sean,
Flash will only play MP3′s at a sample rate of 11025khz, 22050khz or 44100khz Anything else will give the chipmunk effect. If you’re on NMF, look me up and I’d be happy to help convert your MP3 to something that plays right (I just did this myself this week)
Has anybody got an answer to the obvious questions about SuperSurf?
1: How do the other four exchanges know when we start SS from the fifth link?
2: How/when do we get the promised bonus?
3: How do we check?
4: How do any of the exchanges differentiate between surfing on their site as we used to do, and surfing as part of SuperSurf?
HELP!!
@Sean,
Have a look at Impact Web Audio:
http://www.netmarketinggame.com/RDS01/IWebAudio/
You won’t get the chipmunking effect with this. Todd Gross uses this and offers it for only 7 bucks
I’ve used this program on a few of my sites also w/no probs.
Howdy Syd,
1. It’s all scripted. We have it talking to each script to let it know when you surf all 5 at the same time.
2. 24 / 7 when you surf all 5.
3. It will show on the surf bar, something reads like Super Surf Active.
4. Nothing different. You get all the same bonuses you would get by surfing any exchange, this is a bonus on top of that if you surf all at the same time.
