I’m going to town these days at I Love Hits. Last year was a real bad year for all my traffic exchanges as I got very ‘lazy’ and well way too comfortable. I thought I was at the top of my game and no one could ever hurt my business.

I was so wrong.

So wrong in fact that at the beginning of this year I made a conscious effort to roll up my sleeves and turn everything around. It all had to start with my baby though, it all started with I Love Hits. The best thing that has happened to my traffic exchange was that I brought Austin Hallock on board. This guy has literally saved my life in more ways then I can mention, he’s a great guy and one of the best programmers I have ever met.

Also people like Tim Linden, John Guanzon and the entire family at TE Live have been such an amazing group of people…They all helped turn I Love Hits around with the release of Bracket Surfing so this week I needed to ‘celebrate’ by doing something a little different for the prize….Check out the video to see what I mean…





Thank you very much for being a reader of Hit Exchange News and have a wonderful week!

The News

- Huge news this past week as the guys at KRM have done it again with the purchase and ‘re-launch’ of Traffic Dealer. And if I know Paul Kinder and Tim Rash, they’ve already got plans to grow this exchange outside of the industry like no one else could do. Jump in the game, this could be quite the ride!

- TE Browser has been getting a lot of press lately. From being the first ever program NOT owned by Logiscape to be promoted by them, to the recent security issues addressed by Traffic Hoopla, it’s amazing to see how well this program may or may not do for it’s upcoming launch. Stay tuned…

- So the guys at TE Live have been bumping heads together and we think we may have one of the coolest new programs ever to be seen on the traffic exchanges…And we’re almost ready to launch it. Stay tuned for breaking news when we do as it could be as soon as later this evening *crossing fingers* Another reason why it’s a good idea to hang out at TE Live…You never know what people will come up with…

- Oh yeah and finally another bit of news from I Love Hits, I’ve started to pay commissions at the ‘little traffic exchange that could’. I decided it’s time to let loose and really go to town. So now if you are a Heavy Weight member you can earn up to 30% on all upgrades and purchases your downline makes. And yes, Light Weights can make money too. New promo tools will be ready very soon…

1. Hit Safari
2. Tezak Traffic Power
3. StartXChange

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

Deep Thoughts – Jon’s Weekly Ramblings

This Week At Traffic Exchange Live, And Tim’s Blog…

Wow! That’s what I think when I look back at the past 48 hours or so at both Traffic Exchange Live and Tim Linden’s blog. To say ‘we struck a nerve’ would be an understatement and I just wanted to go over a few things about the Ocean Swell team and it’s creator Rusty Shelton…

First off, Rusty is brilliant. I mean the man has created this ‘movement’ and very popular Traffic Wave downline builder by using two simple tools. A rotator and an autoresponder. Remember all the whining I’ve been doing about being creative, well this guy is creative plus some…I applaud his vision and his team atmosphere.

The problem I had with how things were set up were the promises. The wording on the squeeze pages I saw were that some people were guaranteed a downline in as little as 1.8 days and the main focus of this Ocean Swell team seemed to be the money side of Traffic Wave, not the benefits of list building.

Now I understand there are different ways to make money with a program like Traffic Wave and that’s cool. I just know how powerful list building can be and how important a tool like Traffic Wave can be for anyone’s marketing.

All in all, Ocean Swell is a pretty cool idea. If it was worded a bit differently to encourage the USE of the autoresponder first, the affiliate program second and that there was no ‘guarantees’ I think this thing could be bigger than it is now. People love the idea of downline building, heck I love the idea of building huge downlines, I just don’t want to see something this innovative go the way of randomizers and doublers.

So I salute Rusty and the entire Ocean Swell team for doing something new, unique and very simple. Innovation doesn’t need to be programming masterpiece, it just needs to get people thinking differently.

Things That Make You Go Hmmm…

- It’s official, I’m completely done with my Acer computer and PC’s forever. Jon Olson is now 100% Apple compatible…

- Speaking of Apple. Wonder who will be the first traffic exchange to have an iPhone App?

- “If we could sell our experiences for what they cost us, we’d all be millionaires…” – Abigail Van Buren
