The Traffic Exchange Co-Ops: The Traffic Recycling & Leverage Strategy

This entire strategy is built around several different sets of programs, with each one serving a very specific purpose.

We are big on reusing and recycling traffic.

Instead of generating traffic from a Traffic Exchange and using it once, we’re going to show you how to take that traffic and put it to work in other programs where it can generate additional advertising credits and exposure.

That is what these Traffic Exchange Co-Ops are all about.

And as you build the system, upgrade within the programs, and bring more traffic into it, the overall capacity of the system can continue to grow.

The goal isn’t simply to get more traffic today.

The goal is to build a system that can keep producing more advertising power as you expand it.

What We’re Doing Here…

The programs in this strategy reward you with advertising credits when you view or display advertising within their systems.

Most people use these programs in a very basic way:

Surf for credits.

Spend the credits.

Surf some more.

Repeat.

We’re going to take a different approach.

Rather than treating each program as an isolated Traffic Exchange, we’re going to connect them together and recycle traffic through the system.

Traffic that you are already generating through your Traffic Exchanges can be directed into these Co-Ops.

Those Co-Ops then turn that activity into additional advertising credits and exposure.

And when your referrals become active, their activity can potentially contribute additional credits to your account as well, depending on the individual program’s referral structure.

As your referrals build their own networks, that can create additional levels of activity flowing through the system.

This is where the strategy starts becoming much more interesting.

You’re no longer relying entirely on your own surfing.

You’re building a system where your traffic, your referrals’ activity, and the activity generated throughout the network can all contribute to the overall advertising capacity of the system.

And the more you build it, the more room there is to grow.

Setting Up Your Accounts

The basic process will be repeated for each program in this section.

1. Register an account

If you already belong to one of these programs, use your existing account rather than creating another one.

2. Confirm your email and log in

Complete the normal registration process and make sure your account is active.

3. Configure the account

This is where our specific instructions become important.

We’ll show you how we’re using each program as part of the overall strategy, including which links we’re using and where we’re sending the traffic.

Don’t just sign up and start surfing.

Set each account up as part of the system.

Our Core Traffic Exchange Co-Ops

We’re going to concentrate on three primary Co-Ops.

We don’t need twenty different programs doing essentially the same thing.

We want a relatively small group of programs that each brings something valuable to the system.

1. EZ Traffic Club

EZ Traffic Club is my primary Traffic Exchange Co-Op.

One of the things that makes it particularly interesting for this strategy is its referral-credit structure, which can extend six levels deep.

That gives this program significant potential as you begin building an active referral organization.

Think about the difference between having to generate all of your advertising credits yourself and having multiple levels of active members contributing activity throughout your organization.

That’s the leverage we’re looking for.

You don’t need thousands of referrals to begin seeing the concept work.

Start with a few active people.

Teach them what you’re doing.

Help them duplicate the process.

Then continue building.

As the organization grows, the potential amount of activity flowing through the system grows with it.

EZ Traffic Club is the foundation of our Co-Op strategy.

2. Submit Ads 4 Free

Submit Ads 4 Free adds another important piece to the strategy.

When upgraded, members can earn 1.5 credits per page viewed.

That means the same basic surfing activity can produce more advertising credits than a standard one-credit-per-view system.

This is where the Co-Op strategy starts to become a genuine traffic leverage strategy.

We’re not simply looking for places to surf.

We’re looking for programs where the traffic we’re already generating can be converted into as much additional advertising power as reasonably possible.

Submit Ads 4 Free also has its own Co-Op functionality, making it a natural fit for this system.

Why Only Two?

You might be wondering:

Why aren’t we using ten, twenty, or even fifty different Traffic Exchange Co-Ops?

Because more isn’t necessarily better.

Every additional program means another account to manage, another set of rules to learn, another place to send traffic, and another system to maintain.

Instead, we’re concentrating on a small group that can work together.

The objective is to create a traffic pipeline, not a collection of disconnected accounts.

Once you understand how the system works, you can always expand it later.

But there’s no reason to make it complicated from the beginning.

The Three Ways to Use These Co-Ops

There are basically three ways to use this strategy.

#1 — Feed Them With Traffic You’re Already Generating

This is the simplest approach.

Take the traffic you’re already generating through your Traffic Exchanges and put the Co-Op links to work.

That traffic can come from:

Your own manual surfing
Traffic generated from your existing T.E. upgrades
Credits you’ve already accumulated
Traffic you’re receiving through your Traffic Exchange activity

Instead of letting that traffic stop at the Traffic Exchange, we’re going to recycle some of it into the Co-Ops.

You’re putting traffic you already have to work again.

This is the approach I recommend starting with because it allows you to learn the system without immediately spending additional money.

#2 — Buy Traffic/Credits and Feed Them Automatically

Now we’re getting into the part that can really put this strategy on steroids.

Instead of relying entirely on your own surfing, you can purchase Traffic Exchange credits or other advertising credits and use those credits to feed traffic into your Co-Ops.

This costs money, but it can dramatically reduce the amount of manual work required.

And this is where Power Ad Profits comes into the picture.

We’re going to use Power Ad Profits as an additional traffic source for the Co-Op system.

The basic idea is:

Buy advertising credits → create your Co-Op links → feed those links with Power Ad Profits traffic → generate additional advertising credits → continue recycling that traffic.

Instead of spending hours every day manually surfing multiple Traffic Exchanges, we’re using purchased advertising credits to keep the system supplied.

This is the closest thing we’re going to get to putting this portion of the strategy on autopilot.

But there is some setup involved.

Once the setup is done, however, the goal is to have Power Ad Profits continually supplying traffic to the Co-Op links without you having to manually surf every one of those visits yourself.

Power Ad Profits Setup

If you want to use the fully automated version of this strategy, you’re going to need a Power Ad Profits account and an advertising package that gives you enough credits to feed the system.

The exact packages and pricing can change, so check the current Power Ad Profits offerings before purchasing.

What matters for our strategy is having a sufficient supply of visitor surf credits.

We’re going to use those credits to generate traffic to our Co-Op links.

Step 1 — Create Your Co-Op Links

Your first job is to create the tracking links you’ll be using for the three Co-Ops.

You want to be able to track the traffic going to each destination.

Don’t simply throw your raw affiliate links everywhere without knowing how much traffic each one is receiving.

Set up your tracking so you can determine what is actually happening.

Step 2 — Create Multiple Power Ad Profits Links

This is one of the more important parts of the strategy.

Power Ad Profits uses a rotator system for distributing traffic.

If you put only one or two links into that rotator, you’re competing with a huge number of other members’ links for exposure.

Instead, we’re going to take advantage of the fact that you can set up multiple links.

The strategy is to create a large number of links, with those links pointing back toward your Co-Op tracking URLs.

I recommend starting with approximately:

200–500 links

You can use more if you have enough advertising credits available and want to scale the system further.

The objective isn’t to create 500 completely different offers.

You’re creating multiple entries that ultimately direct traffic toward the Co-Op links you’re trying to feed.

Step 3 — Point Those Links Toward Your Co-Ops

Those 200–500 links should point back toward your Co-Op tracking URLs.

You can distribute them among the two Co-Ops rather than sending everything to a single destination.

This gives you a way to feed both parts of the system.

For example, you might have links pointing toward:

EZ Traffic Club

Submit Ads 4 Free

The exact distribution is something you can test and adjust based on the traffic you’re actually receiving.

Step 4 — Plan on 1,000–2,000 Credits Per Link

This is an important part of my own setup.

When you create these Power Ad Profits links, plan on assigning approximately 1,000–2,000 credits to each link.

If you’re setting up 200 links, that obviously represents a substantial amount of credits.

If you’re setting up 500 links, it represents considerably more.

That’s why you need to plan your credit supply before building the entire system.

Don’t create hundreds of links without thinking about how you’re going to supply them.

The number of links you create should make sense based on the size of the advertising package you’re using and how much traffic you want to generate.

The basic concept is:

More links + sufficient credits per link = more opportunities to generate traffic through the rotator.

Step 5 — Track Your Traffic

Tracking is important.

You want to know how much traffic you’re actually receiving and where that traffic is going.

Use your tracking URL when setting up the links so you can monitor the results.

Don’t just assume that because you’ve purchased a large number of credits that the system is working exactly the way you expected.

Track it.

Watch the traffic.

Watch your Co-Op credit balances.

Watch your referrals.

And then adjust the system based on what you see.

What About Traffic Quality?

This is a question you’re probably going to have.

Is the traffic actually unique?

I’ve personally tested the traffic generated through this approach, and in my testing, the traffic has been mostly unique.

I’m deliberately not going to tell you that every single visitor will be unique.

No traffic source should be treated that way.

The point is that I’ve tested it myself and found the traffic quality sufficient for what we’re using it for here.

And remember what we’re doing with the traffic.

We’re not necessarily sending all of it directly to our primary sales page.

We’re using the traffic to feed the Co-Op system.

That distinction is important.

How Much Traffic Are We Trying to Generate?

My target with this setup is to work toward approximately:

1,000–2,000 hits per day

The exact amount will depend on how many links you create, how many credits you assign to them, the Power Ad Profits package you’re using, and the amount of traffic currently flowing through the system.

If you only create one or two links, you’re obviously not going to generate the same volume as someone who has built a much larger rotator presence.

That’s why the 200–500 link range is important to this particular strategy.

You can start smaller.

You can test.

Then scale it up.

Why Not Just Surf Traffic Exchanges?

You absolutely can.

That’s what Method #1 is for.

But if you want to generate a large amount of traffic manually, it can require a significant amount of time.

You could spend hours surfing multiple Traffic Exchanges and still be limited by how much time you personally have available.

And that’s the limitation we’re trying to overcome.

Your time is limited.

A traffic system doesn’t have to be.

That’s why Method #2 exists.

Instead of making your own eyeballs the bottleneck, you can use purchased traffic to keep feeding the Co-Ops.

#3 — Combine Both Approaches

And this is where I think the strategy gets really interesting.

You don’t have to choose between manual Traffic Exchange activity and purchased traffic.

Use both.

Continue surfing the Traffic Exchanges you actually want to work.

Use the traffic generated by your existing T.E. upgrades.

Build your referral organization.

Feed those credits into your Co-Ops.

And then use Power Ad Profits to add another stream of traffic when you want to reduce the amount of manual work required.

Now you’ve got multiple sources feeding the same system.

That’s when the strategy really starts to scale.

The Upgrade Factor

This is also why I don’t want you looking at the programs in this strategy as isolated websites.

As you progress, you may decide to upgrade within one or more of the programs.

Those upgrades can increase your advertising capacity, improve credit-earning rates, provide additional benefits, or otherwise make the program more useful within the overall system.

That creates another opportunity for growth.

Think about it this way:

More activity

↓

More credits

↓

More advertising

↓

More traffic

↓

More opportunities to build referrals

↓

More activity

And then you can add upgrades into the equation.

The system doesn’t have to remain the same size forever.

You can continue expanding it as your needs and traffic volume increase.

The Big Picture

The goal of this strategy isn’t to find one magical Traffic Exchange.

There isn’t one.

The goal is to connect several useful pieces together so that traffic can continue moving through the system.

Your Traffic Exchanges generate traffic.

Your referrals can generate additional activity.

The Co-Ops turn activity into additional advertising credits.

Upgrades can increase your capacity.

And Power Ad Profits can provide an additional source of traffic when you want to automate more of the process.

Each piece has a job.

Put them together and you have something much more powerful than simply surfing Traffic Exchanges one at a time.

You’re building a traffic recycling and leverage system.

And you don’t have to build the entire thing overnight.

Start with the core programs.

Learn how they work.

Get some traffic moving.

Build your referrals.

Upgrade strategically.

Then expand the system as your traffic and advertising needs grow.

The bigger the system becomes, the more traffic you have available to put back to work.

That’s the real strategy.
