Big Brother is here! Another TE First! March 30, 2007
Posted by paul in : Surprises , add a commentWell this is a week for innovation in TE World!
Our Splash Design Competition has taken on a twist as I had a little idea on Tuesday night. I put it out to members as an experiment and the response has been overwhelming!
We have had some incredibly good splashes submitted but, I have to say, members have been voting in their droves to boot out their least favorites. This thing is catching on and will get bigger as this splash page gets seen more and more.
To briefly explain, Traffic-Splash members have submitted almost 40 splash pages, all hoping to win the 10,000 credit first prize. Those splashes are all listed here and your ‘job’ is to nominate three splashes each week for eviction. Each week you nominate you will earn Traffic-Splash credits. In 5 weeks time we will be left with the final selection of splashes and in that week we all vote for one to win that 10,000 credits!
If you would like to win the 10,000 credits, and a special secret bonus then today is your very last chance to submit your splash. Here are the full contest details.
A First Ever For Traffic Exchanges March 29, 2007
Posted by paul in : Stories , add a commentI’ve been meaning to say this all week but all this activity at traffic-splash has kept me busy.
Did you hear the first ever TE Podcast last week? Do you know your F-Factor? Do you know what F-Factor means? Trust me, you need to know!
Jon Olson and Dan Moses podcast last week was fantastic. Two surfers shooting the breeze about this lil indusrtry of ours. Two surfers who just happen to know more about this biz than most of us ever will.

Can I give you 10,000 credits? March 27, 2007
Posted by paul in : Surprises , add a commentI want to see your splashes. I want you to come up with your designs to promote Traffic-Splash. I want something original and different. Preferably a splash that brands you as well as us. I want to see your photo’s out there. The most successful people in this business brand themselves so I want you to brand YOU.
So, what do you get for having fun playing with graphics on your PC?
My undying respect and admiration? I will love you forever? Well maybe, and I might just reward you with 10,000 credits too.
A couple of requirements: your Splash must fit in with our watery theme and you must show our Dolphin mascot. Helpful hint: I love Button 1 on the Promote Banners Page so if you want my vote……
Later on today I will compile a page for you all to view and vote (privately) for your favourite splash. You will earn credits for voting and the winning splash-maker will earn 10,000 credits, 2nd place will earn 5,000 credits and 3rd will earn 2,000 credits. In addition…..
Every single splash you enter will earn you a prize that I don’t think has ever been offered in a Traffic Exchange before. I’m not spilling the beans and it all links in with the referral contest so the sooner you send in your splash, the higher your chance of winning extra cash in The Big Splash! too.
The only way you will discover the prize is by entering. I’m not telling a single solitary person other than competition winners. It’s a mystery, but trust me, it is well well worth it!

Take My 500 bucks! March 26, 2007
Posted by paul in : Surprises , add a commentBig news today! I’ve teamed up with Steve Ayling and Soren Jordansen to bring you one HUGE referral contest. This is your chance to win $500 and more!
We’ve teamed up at Traffic-Splash, Traffic At The Races and DragonSurf and I’m told that this is quite possibly the biggest traffic exchange competition ever!
The contest starts right now and runs for 30 days, ending on April 22nd. Refer new members to Traffic-Splash for the chance to win these top prizes:
1st place: $100 2nd Place: $75 3rd Place: $60 4th Place: $50 5th Place: $45 6th Place: $40 7th Place: $35 8th Place: $30 9th Place: $25 10th Place: $20
11th-12th Place: win a free upgrade worth almost $15 or win credits if already upgraded.
13th-15th Place: win a free upgrade worth almost $10 or win credits if already upgraded.
16th-20th Place: win a free upgrade worth almost $5 or win credits if already upgraded.
So, if first prize is $100 then how do you win $500? Simple really….
If you are top referrer for all three exchanges we are offering an extra cash bonus and you will win $500!
Steve, Soren and I will send tens of thousands of hits to a special contest splash page during the contest, bringing in random referrals to upgraded members. Random referrals count for the contest too so if you’re not upgraded yet, now might be a good time to think about it!
You can also use a copy of this page, embedded with your referral links to all three exchanges and here’s the next cool twist - it’s embedded with your HIT referral link too. Check it out and get your own copy here
I wish you all the very best with the contest and hope I’m handing over a prize to you in a month’s time. If you wish to improve your chances of winning a contest prize then carry on reading tomorrow. I’m giving away more and it all links in….
Say Noooo to Audio! March 1, 2007
Posted by paul in : Stories , 7commentsActually, I don’t mind a little sound when I surf but I really hate sites that run scripts and try to download viruses etc.
I surf in Firefox and I just stumbled across a cool little add-on which stops those scripts running. It’s called NoScript and it does exactly what it says on the tin. My PC is no longer at risk from the vast majority of downloads and my surfing is so much smoother too.
What has this got to do with audio? Well, audio files no longer run automatically too. I’ve been using NoScript for a week and the only downside is that I can no longer surf a couple of minor exchanges.
Oh, another bonus, I can now surf in Hot Conference and actually hear everything that’s going on. There is no more surf chatter blasting through my headset. I love NoScript!
Did I mention that it’s free?
