The Unwritten Secret of Traffic Exchanges! May 24, 2007
Posted by paul in : Secrets , trackbackI have been patiently waiting for my copy of Jon Olson’s new book “Hits, Clicks and Misses” to make it’s way over the Atlantic and it finally got here.
I read the whole thing in one sitting, and I’m already re-reading. This book is so easy to read and is packed solid with good advice about building an online business, whether you use traffic exchanges or not. Of course, if you do use traffic exchanges you’ll find it a little more useful 
One thing that really struck me, reading articles that Jon wrote years ago, is that he has been giving pretty much the same message for several years now. Some terminology may have changed but the base message has remained the same. Promote YOU!
So, if possibly the most successful owner in traffic exchange history has been pounding out this message for years then why are roughly 70% of all pages surfed still showing as standard affiliate pages. They do not work - it is madness, madness, madness to keep on surfing exchanges if you are using affiliate pages. You will not get a valuable return for your effort.
If you’ve been surfing for any length of time you will know about splash pages but if you are new this page will explain here.
What you may not realise is that there is something that works even better than splashes, and it was the ‘unwritten secret’ of traffic exchanges for years. Until now!
Squeeze pages are fairly similar to splashes but in addition to fast-loading, good graphics etc squeezes capture email addresses rather than asking people to click thru to your site.
Are you seeing the benefit yet? Squeeze pages build YOUR list rather than a program owners. You then recommend your favorite programs by sending emails to your list. So, if asomeone takes action from your splash, they just join you in one program, but if they take action from a squeeze page, you can recommend 10, 20, 50 + programs if you wish, all in separate emails.
As if that wasn’t enough benefit then here’s a little shocker - squeeze pages also convert even better than splash pages. Oh, and some squeeze pages contain giveaway products. These convert even better!
So, why was this an “unwritten secret” until today? Well, those who attend traffic exchange seminars will have heard the message repeatedly, it was a bonus for putting in the effort but now…..
A free program has appeared that allows to create great squeeze pages, with good giveaways, and free hosting too.
Oh, and did I say it was free? Joining seems a no-brainer to me…
PS nearly forgot, there is an upgrade offer inside. It’s designed to make a REAL difference to your business. If you are looking to make serious money online then I strongly recommend you look long and hard at this offer. And maybe even buy it! lol

there is no links to authors of testimonials.
Is that the fate of all your testimonial advertising on dolphin splash sites?
The usual net solution is to offer links for testimonials.
Hi Jan,
you’re right, I don’t offer any links for testimonials on my main sales page. Not very many businesses do.
There are two options on that sales page - either join as a member or leave the page. That’s as it should be.
I do drive several thousands hits a day to my unique testimonial rotator though. That’s totally for the benefit of my members. Here is the link …… http://www.traffic-splash.com/rot.php?r=942
hope that helps
