		<description>Hiya, I am really glad I have found this information. Today bloggers publish just about gossip and net stuff and this is actually frustrating. A good site with interesting content, that is what I need. Thank you for making this web site, and I will be visiting again. Do you do newsletters? I Cant find it.</description>

		<description>You&#039;re right Jon, I won&#039;t spill the beans just yet.  But yes, it is a TE, and yes it will have commissions.

The only thing I will say is that it goes against what most people have come to expect from Logiscape ... in other words, we have done our best to strip bells and whistles rather than add them (but of course it still has that special &quot;something&quot; that makes all our exchanges unique).</description>

		<description>Click Silo, That brings back memories. Alas it was one of my favorites also. 

Walker dropping their prices just brings the inexperienced traffic exchange owner out of the woodwork with no idea what it takes to run a successful traffic exchange. If a owner cannot commit to spending a decent amount advertising their exchange they are never going to amount to anything anyway. There are already hundreds of useless Walker exchanges with less then 100 members that don&#039;t make enough to pay their hosting. 

Those exchanges won&#039;t hurt the experienced owner that understands what it takes to run a successful traffic exchange. Walker already sold over 500 copies of their script and out of that there are only about 15 really good Walker exchanges from owners that get it. 

This is not a hobby it is a business run by professional business owners. Many people do this for a living and the ones that don&#039;t shouldn&#039;t have a traffic exchange. 

I hope to launch my new exchange next month. I looked at many scripts but none of them had exactly what I wanted so I took the best of each exchange and will launch on a custom one of a kind script with one of the best designs seen in awhile. I used my extensive experience owning 5 exchanges in the past to develop a very useful exchange that the beta testers using my exchange so far have really enjoyed! 

I agree 100% with Mr. Olson. It&#039;s the owner that makes a good traffic exchange not the script but I still wanted a script that had the most requested features my members have asked for over the years. I think many people will be surprised and happy with my newest exchange. It has the custom mods, the custom design, the social networking interface and commissions.

Good issue Jon, that&#039;s why your one of the best owners in this business. You tell it like it is!</description>

		<description>Free TE script, would just be bad.  With walker dropping their prices to $69, i think, for a script, IMO, there has been a large number of people buying these scripts, and expecting people in the forums to do it all for them.  Yep, I was one of those idiots that got a TE before knowing the truth about running it, but well, now things are picking up.  My hope is that if a TE script is released for zero dollars, it won&#039;t impact the TE industry negatively in the eyes of the surfer.</description>

		<description>Well, we actually looked at putting a commission structure into our existing programs, but there are a lot of issues with introducing commissions so late in their life (3 of our 4 exchanges are about 5 years old or older).  Plus with the integrated logibucks and everything that goes with it, it was just too complex.

So, it is hitsilo to the rescue! ... at least for all the commission junkies out there :)</description>

		<description>Hi Jon, 

Thanks, much appreciation for the mention of Pro Click Exchange, took a long time to decide which direction to take it and another massive amount of hours to get it to where it is now. 

Kudo&#039;s to the programmer, the guy can literally do anything I can throw at him. 

Still have more planned, much of it ready to go now, but we really wanted to wait before bringing it out.

Oh, by the way, I know a surf club where all the owners pay commissions really quick..its called Power Surf Central.. ;)

Thanks again Jon,

		<description>Tyler - Ya, thought you guys would put it onto your current programs. But what&#039;s funny, I honestly thought you had purchased the &#039;Clicksilo&#039; domain for a second. I was pretty excited just cause ClickSilo was one of my all time favorite.

Then realized it was &#039;Hit Silo&#039; LOL</description>

		<description>Hey Jon,

Thanks for the mention, even if it was in your thing that make you go hmmm.

But I thought you might have been a little more excited.  After all, you recently said something to the effect that if Logiscape ever offered commissions, your life would be complete.

Oh, well.  Always enjoy your ramblings, and as for the free TE script thing ... I agree that this would be about the dumbest thing to do.  But, I won&#039;t go into detail since I just posted my little rant on your forum.</description>
