Getting The Most Out Of Surfing

Why do so many people use traffic exchanges to advertise on the Internet? Because they work. Not only are they a great way to advertise, but they are a great way to keep yourself close to the pulse of the industry.

To get the most out of exchange surfing, there are a few things you should know.

How Much Time Should I Spend Surfing?

As much as you can. If you want to build your business, you will either have to put the time into surfing, or purchase credits and upgrades. We recommend all three for the best results.

Many newcomers spend a week or two surfing an hour or two a day and wonder why their businesses aren't growing. This is because the competition is fierce and you must keep your business in front of everybody to be successful.

Setting A Schedule For Surfing

Reports have shown that the most active time of the day on traf.fic exchanges is around 9PM to 12AM Pacific time. However, early morning is also very productive.

The best thing to do is break up your surfing into chunks throughout the day. The best scenario would be an hour or two in the early morning (Pacific Time), and hour or two in the early afternoon, an hour or two in the late afternoon/early evening and 2 or 3 hours later at night.

This will expose your business to wider range of people than surfing every day at the same time.

Again, if you have little time to surf, you will have to purchase credits.

You will want to keep your business in front of other Net Marketers as much as you can. Regular surfing, credits purchases and the Pro upgrade will help you do this.

When you are surfing, view all the sites so you won't be cheating other surfers out of their credits. However, you don't want to spend all your allotted surfing time on reading entire websites. If you see something that interests you, bookmark it and go back to it when you are done surfing.

Be sure to use tabs in a browser such as Firefox so that you have betweeen eight and ten surf programs running at a time. In Firefox, if you go to "Bookmarks" then "Manage Bookmarks" you can create a folder to put ten surf program URLS in and put that folder on your toolbar. Create another folder for the next 10, and so on. Now, when you are ready to surf, click on the folder and the last item will read "open in tabs." Clicking this will open all 10 windows as once. Now go through each one, sign in, check to be sure all your credits are assigned and start surfing!
