Getting Free and Paid Traffic from Traffic Exchanges
(by traffic exchanges expert, Jesse Grant)
Traffic exchanges are a great way to advertise your websites. Traffic exchanges have a large list of websites, when you want to earn credits to advertise you view other people’s pages. For a certain number of pages viewed your pages will be viewed a certain number of times. This is known as the surf ratio. A good ratio would be 1:1 or better. Traffic exchanges are either auto surf or manual surf. To earn credits to advertise your sites you must either pay money or browse the sites within the exchange.
When you browse the sites within a traffic exchange you must stay on a site for a certain number of seconds then you can advance to the next site. When using a manual surf exchange you must click a picture or with some of the newest traffic exchanges you can just hover the mouse over a certain area of the page to advance. With an auto surf exchange in order to advance to the next page you do nothing at all. So you can start your computer surfing then walk away from it for hours while it generates credits for you. The only problem with this type of exchange is no humans will actually view your pages. So the hits you get are good for statistical purposes only.
To make the most out of your traffic exchange experience expect to spend about $100 for a yearly discounted membership. When you sign up to a new exchange you will often be given a one time offer that is basically their best membership for a heavily discounted price. You would be wise to take this offer when it comes along because if you decide to buy credits at a later point expect to pay a lot more.
You only get what you pay for when it comes to traffic exchanges, because I’ve tried surfing them in order to generate credits, and with a free account it takes forever to earn just a few hits. You’d be better off going to work at a McDonalds and investing your money in advertising for your online ventures, until you’re at the point where you can make online transactions your full time job.

Another benefit of paying for a good membership on your exchange of choice is that they typically give you a much better surfing ratio. Instead of being forced to look at 3 or 4 sites to get one page view, you’ll often be given a 1:1 ratio or better. Which means when your credits run out you can generate a tonne of hits quickly by just surfing a bit, and who knows, while you’re at it you just might win bonus credits or a prize or two. Traffic exchanges are a fun and lucrative way to build your online profile, so take full advantage of them.

One of the most common objections that prospects like to throw up when you introduce them to Network Marketing or just any business from home computer (or WiFi connection) is “I don’t have the time.”
Don’t believe that, and here’s one reason why… There was a recent study that talked about television time. This study showed that the average American watches about 27 hours a week watching television. Let me give you some break downs of this…
Let’s watch and listen to what Eric Worre says about that…
Those under 24, average about 22 hours a week watching television. That might sound better than the national average, but that’s because those people are sitting with their devices watching YouTube, playing games, and texting like crazy.
Their brains are still being sucked into a device. One of the things that shocked me is that the older a person gets, the more television they watch. They don’t become wiser and decide to spend their time doing something else. They become more absorbed into the machine.
The study showed that if you’re over 65, the average is over 50 hours a week on television. So, the older we get instead of becoming more engaged with the world, we become less engaged in the world, in business, and in contributing to others.
Imagine if people took those 27 hours, and devoted it to building their future instead of being plugged into the system like a battery in a machine. After all, how much contribution can you have on the world if you’re spending 27-50 hours a week watching television? So, when people tell you that they don’t have the time, don’t call them a liar but don’t believe their story either.
Show them that there is a better way than plugging into the latest television series. There’s a better way than just becoming a super consumer and being told what to buy, how to feel, and what to do. There’s a better way than sitting on your couch. There’s a big world out there. Let’s get out there and contribute to it.
Why not to take 1 hour a day and to try to build online business from home?
Even though I use this marketing system that works on autopilot and do not have to persuade people to be my partner. Sometimes you can hear and see it in emails or if you chat with people on Facebook.
“I can’t afford it.” I’ve heard and read those words plenty of times in nearly ten years of growing my business, and if you’re offering programs or products in your business, I’m sure you have too.
What you may not know, however, is that those words are rarely the real reason a potential client isn’t buying from you.
I would recommend to listen how Eric Worre explains this situation.

More comments on this question from – Heather Cottrell (business consultant)
The thing is, your potential client is most likely not going to express her true feeling to you directly. In fact, she may not realize it herself. It is so much easier to just say “I can’t afford it.”
In reality though, it is a very low percentage of people in the US who can’t find a way to raise the money they need for something that’s important to them.
For some people, it’s the latest and greatest TV that they prioritize, and they will open a new credit card to buy it. For your Ideal Client, her health is the priority and she’d be willing to forego the daily Starbucks run, cut back on eating out in restaurants, have a garage sale and maybe turn off the cable, in order to pay for the program or product you’re offering.
There’s always a way, and I’ve seen my clients get brilliantly creative to invest in themselves.
It’s not your job to guess what a potential client can or cannot afford. Only he knows what his priorities are and how willing he is to invest in himself.
Nine times out of ten, if a potential client says “I can’t afford it” the real reason is one of these:
“I’ve bought or signed up for a program or product like yours before, and I didn’t really use it so I’m afraid I’ll be wasting more money.”
“I’m not really resonating with you or your style (but I’m not going to tell you that).”
“I thought I was ready to make a real change in my life, but now that I’m talking to you and get the sense you *really* know what you’re talking about, I’m afraid to make this commitment to myself.”
It’s unlikely you’ll ever hear one of these true reasons. It’s so much easier to say “I can’t afford it” so that’s the main reason you will get when a potential client chooses not to buy from you. It’s important for you to know this.
In the rare case when a client is able to express that she’s hesitating because she’s afraid of making a real change in her life, you might try and walk her through this fear. When she truly sees the value of working with you and feels the very real possibility of huge results, her fears suddenly get triggered. The fear of change, of leaving her old self behind, the fear of really stepping up and having the life she dreams of.
If it feels good to do so, you might share a related story from your own past or about one of your other clients. You can tell her it’s perfectly normal to have that fear, and remind her of the cost of NOT investing in herself.
If you’re hearing “I can’t afford it” too often
Even when things are going well, you’ll still get the occasional “I can’t afford it” throughout your business. That’s OK. Let those go, and don’t even worry about it.
However, if you’re hearing “I can’t afford it” on a frequent basis, I recommend you ask yourself the following questions:
1) Am I really ready to have clients and get paid for my expertise?
It’s very possible that your own money issues are at the heart of this problem, not your clients’. You may be ignoring some of your own doubts and fears, and they’re coming through in the way you market yourself and the way you talk with potential clients.
Check in with yourself about the business you’re trying to build. Are you offering products and services you really love? Are you charging what feels really good to you? How can you clear up your own money issues?
Also notice if you’re saying “I can’t afford it” about investing in your own health, life or business. Figure out the real reasons you’re not investing in yourself and clear that up. When you’re feeling abundant, and prioritizing your money around what’s most important to you, you will attract more of the same in your clients.
2) Are you over-describing the Hows of the work you do with clients?
Many practitioners give too many details on their website and during an initial consultation about all the steps involved in the transformational process they offer their clients. Problem is, doing this can make it sound too challenging or intimidating.
Your potential client only wants to know what the possible results are, and they want to feel comfortable with you. Let the rest unfold after they have chosen to work with you.
Keep your early interactions with potential clients – including your website, blog, newsletter, public talks and initial consultation – focused on the challenges they want to overcome and the results they can enjoy by working with you.
3) Are you undervaluing the work you do?
If you don’t fully see the value in your products or services, then your potential clients won’t see it either. If they can’t see the value, no price – no matter how small – is going to be right.
You have to see the value of your work, and charge accordingly. Contrary to what you might think, people are more likely to choose an expensive option over a cheap one if they see its value. The higher price tag creates the feeling that they’re getting the best (even though this is not always the case, unfortunately).
So don’t set out to undercharge or downplay the value of what you offer. Do the opposite. Make it clear how valuable your programs and products are, and then lower the price as a discount, if that feels good to you.
4) Are you asking for the sale and making it easy for your potential client to say yes?
This can sometimes be a communication issue or a tech issue. First get clear exactly what you want to charge for the product or service you’re offering, and what payment options you’ll accept. If you’re comfortable offering a payment plan, be ready to clearly describe how it works, what each payment is and when each is due.
I strongly recommend you accept credit cards (PayPal is the easiest way to get started), as that’s the easiest way for your clients to safely pay you during a consultation, make a purchase from your website or set up their own financing plan to pay for your high-end service.
Practice the money conversation with your coach or a friend, so that it flows off your tongue easily when you’re speaking with a client. Practice asking them directly if they want to enroll in your program or buy your product, and describing the price and how to pay.
If you’re describing payment options in writing on a salespage, have your coach or a trusted colleague review it for you. Simple and clear wins when it comes to talking money.
5) Are you clear who your Ideal Clients are?
Health coaches often forget to add “She’s ready to change her life” to their Ideal Client description. And this shows up in the way you market your services, and who you’re marketing to.
Get clear that your Ideal Client is ready to invest, ready to do the work and excited about making a transformation. Think of a former client, or friend, who fits that description, and be sure to write every word of your website content, newsletters and social media posts, with her in mind.
Speak to those people – not the many unsures out there – and you’ll attract more of them to your initial consultations, thus eliminating the “I can’t afford it” excuse that’s masking the “I’m not ready” reality.
How to respond to “I can’t afford it”
When a client says “I can’t afford it”, don’t be tempted to start lowering your prices for them. Your program or product will only lose value in his eyes if you suddenly drop the price. Chances that he’ll buy from you at the lower price are extremely slim. Chances that you’ll feel good about it and enjoy working with that particular client are also slim.
You don’t have to do anything, or even respond, to a client who says “I can’t afford it”. You could say “Thanks for letting me know” and wish them well. Or, if it feels good to do so, you could consider one of these other options:
If you already offer a smaller version of the program or product your client was considering, you might offer her that as an alternative. Point out that the results will be different, but the price tag might be easier for her to commit to.
If you’re comfortable accepting a payment plan for your larger service, you can offer that as an alternative to your pay-in-full price.
Otherwise, let her know she can contact you when she’s ready to invest in herself, and until then stay in touch via your newsletter. That’s it. You don’t need to do anymore, or try to persuade her to work with you. Keep your focus on clients who are ready to work with you.

#1 problem with safelists – almost nobody reads your emails.
Why? People open 2 separate email accounts not to overload their primary account. So you send your messages to mailbox where nobody reads them.
For example: You send 5,000 emails, 10-16% people may open email, 1-3% will go to website and finally you are like to have 1-2 sign ups, no sales. You need to send 100,000 emails and more and make sure they can bring targeted, quality traffic.
So, of course, paid traffic to contact primary email account or guaranteed clicks with Solo Ads is the best solution to compare with Safelists. I would recommend this source – click here.
Time is money. Use paid traffic.
In today’s blog, I’m going to share with you how to get good response from safelist advertising
(what I’ve learnt from LeadsLeap platform expert Kenneth). I included my tools and resources here.
Many gurus will tell you that safelist is a complete waste of time and to certain extend, I agree. But if you know the tricks, it can be a good source of traffic for you.
Without further ado, here are the tricks to get good response from safelist advertising.
1) Don’t sell. Build list!
Safelist traffic seldom buy stuff on the spot. Don’t advertise your business opportunity directly or sell your product upfront. It won’t work.
Instead, your main job is to give. Give away free gifts, free info and/or arouse their curiosity so that they opt-in to your list.
To illustrate, when I advertise Plug-In Profit Site program, the sales page I use is this.
As you can see, I’m giving away more than 1000 minutes of internet marketing videos. The opt-in conversion is good. After prospects opt-in, they will see my one-time offer. About 5% will take up the offer, but bear in mind that it’s not the end.
Safelist traffic are usually newbies of the newbies. Once they opt-in to your list, if you can feed them with great information and show them the way to make money online, they can be your best long term customers.
2) It all started with a catchy email subject.
Safelist members receive tons of emails a day. Wanting them to read your email is very tough and that’s why most people fail to get much traffic.
(Usually, when you join an individual safelist program, the response is so low that it can be a waste of your time. For better response, it is wiser to use a safelist submitter that allows you to submit your ad to thousands of safelists at one time.)
As I’ve said, safelist members receive tons of emails everyday. When they browse through their list of emails, the only thing they see is your email subject. Therefore the only way to capture their attention is through your email subject.
There are 2 important tips on writing email subject:
i) When writing your email subject, focus on giving and don’t try to sell or hype.
Email subjects such as “Make $3000 A Month On Autopilot” will not work because people know you are trying to sell something.
Instead, email subject like “Free Report: How I Make $3000 A Month On Autopilot” will get some traffic to your squeeze page.
ii) To further increase the response, you MUST make your subject stand out VISUALLY.
This is the main secret, so pay special attention to this.
What I’m saying is you should add some special characters that can make your ad quickly recognizable from the list of email subjects.
To illustrate what I mean, look at the list of email subjects below and tell me which one captures your attention.

3 Reasons You Should Consider
If you browse through the subjects above, you should see that “### Free Report ### How I Make $3000 A Month On Autopilot” stands out from the rest.
The trick is to use some special characters to increase your chance of having your email subject being read.
I’ve also seen people starting an email subject with characters like these:

Be creative and think out of the box when using characters to capture attention.
But remember, this trick can ONLY capture people’s attention. Eventually, it’s the words that determine if they want to read your ad. Remember to give rather than to sell or hype in your email subject.
Email subjects like this

will not get you much traffic, but email subjects like this

will.
To sum up, effective safelist advertising begins with 1) a VISUALLY powerful email subject, 2) an irresistible email subject that offers something that one would be crazy to reject and 3) a squeeze page that can get people to opt-in to get the offer, and finally 4) a good follow-up system that lives on the principle of “give and thou shall receive”.
Last but not least, remember that the success of any advertising campaign does not lie in the source of your traffic (so long as the traffic is targeted). More importantly, it lies in the amount of charcoal you have set up.
One of the way to get leads from safelists is to get guaranteed leads per month to your autoresponder – for example from – European Safelist.- you can get 500 leads per month to your AR. Check banner below – Pro-membership.
