The pulse of the traffic exchange industry and the random ramblings of Jon Olson (that's me!)
I've been writing Hit Exchange News since 2003 and have been involved in the traffic exchanges for over a decade. Enjoy the 'news', and thank you so much for making this THE must-read traffic exchange blog on the internet!
So we did something ‘different’ this weekend. We ‘kind of’ launched ClickTrackProfit.com around midnight on Saturday. It wasn’t really planned to be launched but something we wanted to do with this program is NOT have JV’s, etc. Reason? For years people have complained about it ‘not being fair’ that JV’s got all the referrals when a new program launched so for us, it was very important to give everyone an equal shot. No one ‘preferred’, no one got the jump on this before you, this was built for everyone.
What is ClickTrackProfit? Is it a new downline builder? Yup. What makes it different than any other downline builder? Simplicity. We wanted to take the idea of downline building in the traffic exchanges and simplify it like never before. So simple, so straight forward that all people had to do is copy and paste one link, and then click…
We wanted to create something that people understood the moment they joined it and saw how simple it would be, all they had to do was promote one link. Keeping things simple from the start allows us to ‘drip feed’ more content down the road. Yes, it looks bare right now but this is actually the plan for the program. The more people get into this, the more they will learn, the more they will understand and we always meant for this to be ‘slow’ and steady.
Splash page multiplex, pass through technology, referral maximizer, commission multiplier? We will be giving people some introductions to ClickTrackProfit today in T.E. Live and T.E. Toolbox at 3pm and 7pm Eastern.
It’s what will be the life of this industry and allow it to grow and prosper for the years ahead. I’ve always maintained that the owners and people in this business who ‘get it’ when it comes to innovation will be the ones leading the charge and this week is no different.
Tim Linden has once again gone above and beyond when it comes to providing traffic exchange surfers with something fun and informative, and it’s at the T.E. Live toolbar.
Tim added the ability for owners to broadcast their own surf promos directly from the toolbar, here’s a screen shot;
Pretty cool huh?
Simply download the free toolbar and get access to all the surf promos you’ll ever need from the best performing traffic exchanges on the net today.
Thank you Tim for doing something different, creating a useful tool and something that brings even more validity to the traffic exchange industry!
Thank you very much for being a reader of Hit Exchange News and have a wonderful week!
- We’ve changed things up a bit at T.E. Live. We are still on the air every week day from 3 pm Eastern but instead of doing a two hour show (where we bore many viewers to death) we’ve gone to a one hour format. Expect a lot more focused discussion in the weeks ahead and even more special guests…
- Steve Ayling has something very cool launching today, be sure to check your emails in a few hours because this little program he is about to launch is so simple, you’ll laugh. It’s very nostalgic as well, gave me goose bumps =)
- Thumb Vu just keeps on growing. This week it joined the Super Surf traffic exchanges and you should see another massive boost in activity. Hint, it’s time to create those T.E. specific pages, especially if you plan on surfing Thumb Vu…
- Notice: Cast your vote today for your favorite traffic exchanges at Affiliate Funnel’s Surfer’s Choice ranker. This is YOUR voice and YOUR opinion on what traffic exchanges you feel are the best in the business. Be sure to vote every day and get your opinion heard!
- Splash Page Hall of Fame – Not only is this now a free download but with splash pages like this, you can bet William Brant’s 13 Deadly is a MUST read! 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!

The Famous Hit Exchange News Top 10 (Disclaimer: These are my top performing exchanges for the past week. Alexa rankings and fancy numbers have nothing to do with how I rank my list. This is based on my results and my opinion, nothing more, nothing less.)
Note: Analysis and Tracking by T.E. Toolbox – The Official Link Tracking Service of Hit Exchange News!
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
The Traffic Exchange Revolving Door…
It’s a theory of mine that hasn’t done me wrong yet, and that is to be seen in the traffic exchanges are much in 6 months than you are today. I call it ‘Traffic Exchange Brand Awareness’ or T.E.B.A. for short…
Ask anyone who has made any money or found success in the traffic exchanges and they’ll tell you, you need to be seen as much as possible, for as long as possible, whenever possible. Simple enough yet 99.9% of the traffic exchange surfers still do not practice this.
No, you do not need $100 a week budget to advertise your site. You need elbow grease, some must have tools and the end goal in mind.
However, it’s not as ‘easy’ as it sounds…
I cannot tell you how many times I have heard and seen traffic exchange surfers and owners come online, go all out and put their everything into their business and then simply give up a few months later.
Why did they give up? Could be any reason, but I think the biggest one is that they do not see the results or get excited enough about the potential their efforts could generate.
But here’s the kicker…They always come back!
Yes, whether it’s a month, 6 months or a year later, these people seem to always return and give it another go. They are filled with desire and the will to succeed but one has to ask if they would have been further ahead if they stuck with it…
Case in point, don’t give up if you do not see results right away. Learn what you may be doing wrong. Ask questions. Get answers. Make sure you KNOW where you are advertising and what you are advertising.
You will see results, you WILL get excited about this business…Don’t forget that and don’t give up =)
