The Power of 5: A Traffic Exchange Leverage Strategy

Most people use Traffic Exchanges in a very simple way.

You surf other people’s websites, earn credits, and then spend those credits getting your own website or offer shown to other members.

There’s nothing wrong with that.

But what if you could take that basic concept and add another layer of leverage — where you can also benefit from the activity of the people you refer, and potentially the people they refer?

That’s where the Power of 5 comes in.

Understanding the Power of 5

This strategy is based around Traffic Exchanges that offer multi-level referral benefits.

Many Traffic Exchanges only offer benefits from your direct referrals. Others allow you to earn from the activity of your referrals several levels deep.

That difference can be extremely powerful.

For example, let’s say you personally refer five people to a Traffic Exchange.

If each of those five people refers five more people, and that continues for five levels, the numbers can grow very quickly:

Level 1: 5
Level 2: 25
Level 3: 125
Level 4: 625
Level 5: 3,125

That’s a theoretical total of 3,905 people across five levels.

Obviously, this example assumes that everyone continues referring five people, and real-world results will vary dramatically.

The point isn’t that you’re guaranteed to build a 3,905-person downline.

The point is that you don’t necessarily need thousands of direct referrals to create a large network underneath you.

And when a Traffic Exchange rewards you for the activity of that network, the surfing activity of your team can potentially create advertising power that goes beyond what you could generate by yourself.

That’s the leverage we’re looking for.

Don’t Join Traffic Exchanges Until You Know What You’re Going to Promote

Before joining a bunch of Traffic Exchanges, I want to do something that I think is extremely important:

Decide what links we’re going to put into them first.

There’s no point in joining twenty Traffic Exchanges and then trying to figure out what we’re going to advertise.

Instead, I keep a short list of links ready to go.

Whenever I join a Traffic Exchange, I look at the advertising options available and start plugging in my primary links.

The first two links are related to Banner Boomerang.

1. Banner Boomerang

The first link I try to enter is my Banner Boomerang splash-page link.

For me, that link would look something like this:

[MY ACTUAL BANNER BOOMERANG LINK HERE]

Why is this one of my primary links?

Because Banner Boomerang isn’t simply another website I’m trying to send traffic to.

It is part of a larger advertising strategy that I use to turn Traffic Exchange exposure into additional advertising opportunities.

I have a completely separate strategy explaining how I use Banner Boomerang and why I consider it so useful.

Read my Banner Strategy HERE

I don’t want to duplicate that entire strategy on this page.

For this Traffic Exchange strategy, just understand that Banner Boomerang is one of the primary destinations I want to feed with the traffic I generate.

2. Traffic Ad Bar + Banner Boomerang

My second preferred link is my Traffic Ad Bar link that sends visitors to my Banner Boomerang splash page.

For me, that link would look like this:

[MY ACTUAL TRAFFIC AD BAR → BANNER BOOMERANG LINK HERE]

I’m putting this link immediately after the regular Banner Boomerang link for a reason.

First, you need to understand the original Banner Boomerang concept.

Then we can add another layer.

Traffic Ad Bar gives me another way to feed traffic into the Banner Boomerang strategy.

So I’m not looking at these as two completely unrelated advertising links.

I’m using Banner Boomerang as the destination and Traffic Ad Bar as another source of traffic and advertising power feeding into that strategy.

If you want to understand exactly why I use Banner Boomerang and Traffic Ad Bar this way, read my separate:

3. Add Your Selected Traffic Exchange Co-Ops

Depending on the Traffic Exchange I’m using, I may have additional advertising slots available.

When I do, I don’t just fill those slots with random websites.

I want to use selected Traffic Exchange Co-Op links that fit the strategy.

The idea behind these Co-Ops is important.

Instead of relying solely on my own surfing activity, I want to take advantage of programs where the activity of other members can help generate additional credits or advertising exposure.

I currently have three Co-Ops that I want to concentrate on.

EZ Traffic Club

[MY EZ TRAFFIC CLUB CO-OP LINK HERE]

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

One of the main reasons I like it for this strategy is its referral activity system, which can reward activity from your downline up to six levels deep.

That makes it particularly interesting when combined with the Power of 5 concept.

The objective isn’t simply to surf EZ Traffic Club yourself.

It’s to build a referral network whose activity can potentially contribute to your own advertising power.

Submit Ads 4 Free

[MY SUBMIT ADS 4 FREE CO-OP LINK HERE]

Submit Ads 4 Free is another Co-Op I want to use.

One of the features that makes it especially interesting is that an upgraded membership can provide 1.5 credits for each site viewed.

That means your own surfing activity can generate credits at a higher rate than a basic one-credit-per-view system.

Combined with its referral and Co-Op features, that makes it a good fit for the strategy we’re building.

WebmasterQuest

[MY WEBMASTERQUEST CO-OP LINK HERE]

WebmasterQuest is the third Co-Op I want to focus on.

An upgraded membership can provide 1.5 credits per site viewed, and it also has a multi-level referral structure.

That combination makes it another good fit for this system.

Again, we’re looking for leverage.

We don’t want every credit we earn to depend entirely on our own ability to sit in front of a computer and surf pages.

We want to build systems where our own activity and the activity of our referral network can work together.

The Traffic Exchanges We Focus On

Now that we know what we’re going to promote, we can start looking at the actual Traffic Exchanges.

I don’t believe in joining every Traffic Exchange I can find just to build a giant list of memberships.

The goal here is different.

We’re looking for Traffic Exchanges that can contribute something useful to the overall system.

Things I look for include:

Multi-level referral benefits
Good member activity
Useful surfing rewards
Opportunities to earn additional credits
Referral activity that can generate residual benefits
Good advertising options
A system that rewards active members

These are the Traffic Exchanges I want to focus on first.

Infinity Traffic Boost

[MY INFINITY TRAFFIC BOOST LINK HERE]

Infinity Traffic Boost is an extremely powerful traffic platform with several levels of referral benefits.

I consider it important enough to my overall traffic strategy that I’ve created a completely separate strategy page dedicated to Infinity Traffic Boost.

Read my Infinity Traffic Boost Strategy HERE

I’m not going to duplicate that entire strategy here.

For purposes of this Traffic Exchange system, just understand that Infinity Traffic Boost is one of the platforms I want included in my overall traffic arsenal.

TrafficG

[MY TRAFFICG LINK HERE]

TrafficG is another Traffic Exchange that fits the multi-level referral concept we’re looking for.

It offers referral benefits from multiple levels, allowing activity within your referral network to potentially contribute to your account.

TrafficG also provides additional opportunities to earn credits and rewards through member activity.

The important thing to remember is that we’re not looking at TrafficG as simply another place where we have to surf.

We’re looking at it as one component of a larger system.

EasyHits4U

[MY EASYHITS4U LINK HERE]

EasyHits4U is another established Traffic Exchange with a multi-level referral structure.

It offers referral benefits and additional rewards based on member activity.

For this strategy, we’re interested in it because it gives us another opportunity to build a referral network while generating traffic and advertising credits.

As always, check the current membership and reward structure before deciding which membership level makes the most sense for you.

Surfers2U

[MY SURFERS2U LINK HERE]

Surfers2U offers multiple levels of referral benefits along with surfing rewards.

It also provides opportunities to earn additional credits through member activity.

That makes it another potential component of the Traffic Exchange network we’re building.

The objective remains the same:

Build the network, keep the network active, and use the resulting activity to create more advertising power.

ClickVoyager

[MY CLICKVOYAGER LINK HERE]

ClickVoyager is another Traffic Exchange with a multi-level referral structure and additional rewards for member activity.

It gives us another opportunity to build a referral network while generating traffic and credits.

Again, we’re not joining it simply so we can say we’re members.

We’re looking for programs where our activity and our referral activity can work together.

Why Referral Activity Changes the Game

This is the part I really want you to understand.

If you look at a Traffic Exchange only as a place where you personally surf websites for credits, you’re essentially trading your time for traffic.

You surf.

You earn credits.

You advertise.

Then you surf some more.

That’s useful, but there’s an obvious limitation:

Your advertising power is largely tied to how much work you personally do.

The Power of 5 concept gives us another possibility.

Suppose you refer someone.

That person becomes active and earns credits by surfing.

If the Traffic Exchange rewards you for your referral’s activity, you can benefit from the work they’re doing.

Now suppose that person refers someone else.

That person becomes active too.

If the program rewards several levels of activity, you may be able to benefit from activity farther down your network as well.

That’s where the leverage comes from.

Instead of having your advertising power depend entirely on your own two hands, you’re building a network where other people’s activity can contribute to the overall system.

This Is a Team Strategy

There is one very important catch.

Everybody has to participate.

This isn’t a strategy where everyone joins and then sits back waiting for somebody else to do the work.

The people participating in the system need to remain active.

That’s why I recommend establishing a daily surfing routine.

As a basic starting point, I would aim for at least 100 pages per day on each of the core Traffic Exchanges where your activity contributes to the system.

If you have the time and want to do more, that’s even better.

But consistency is more important than trying to go crazy for three days and then quitting.

The whole concept depends on an active network.

When everybody participates, everybody has the opportunity to benefit from the activity being generated throughout the network.

RapidTab.Surf: Surf More Efficiently

Now that you’ve seen the Traffic Exchanges we’re using, let’s talk about how to make working with multiple exchanges easier.

That’s where RapidTab.Surf comes in.

[MY RAPIDTAB.SURF LINK HERE]

RapidTab.Surf isn’t being included because it’s simply another Traffic Exchange I want you to join.

Its primary purpose here is efficiency.

If you’re working with several Traffic Exchanges, opening and surfing them one at a time can become tedious.

RapidTab.Surf allows you to work with multiple Traffic Exchanges simultaneously in different browser tabs.

Free members can use multiple tabs, while Premium members have additional capabilities, including the ability to surf an unlimited number of Traffic Exchanges.

For a system like this, that can make a big difference.

The more efficiently you can complete your daily surfing, the easier it is to stay consistent.

Your Daily Traffic Exchange Routine

Now let’s put the pieces together.

Your daily routine doesn’t have to be complicated.

Step 1: Open Your Traffic Exchanges

Get your core Traffic Exchanges ready to work.

Step 2: Use RapidTab.Surf

Use RapidTab.Surf to make working through multiple exchanges faster and more efficient.

Step 3: Complete Your Daily Surfing

Aim for at least 100 pages per day on the core exchanges you’re actively working.

Step 4: Keep Building Your Referral Network

Continue promoting the Traffic Exchanges and the system.

Remember, we’re not only looking for direct referrals.

We’re looking for the multi-level activity that can develop underneath those referrals.

Step 5: Put Your Credits to Work

Use the credits you earn to promote your selected advertising links.

The objective is to continually turn your surfing activity into additional advertising exposure.

Step 6: Stay Consistent

This is perhaps the most important step of all.

The strategy becomes more powerful as the network becomes more active.

How All of This Fits Together

Here’s the big picture.

You’re not simply joining a bunch of Traffic Exchanges.

You’re building an interconnected traffic system.

The basic process looks like this:

Surf → Earn Credits → Advertise → Get Referrals → Referrals Surf → Earn From Their Activity → Their Referrals Surf → Build More Advertising Power → Get More Exposure → Build More Referrals

And the process continues.

Your Banner Boomerang links give you something valuable to promote.

Traffic Ad Bar can add another layer of advertising power to that strategy.

Your selected Co-Ops give you additional opportunities to leverage member activity.

The Traffic Exchanges provide the actual surfing environment and referral networks.

RapidTab.Surf helps make the work more efficient.

And the Power of 5 concept explains why multi-level referral activity can be so much more powerful than relying exclusively on your own surfing.

You Don’t Need To Do Everything At Once

Don’t feel like you have to join every program on this page on day one.

Start with the core programs.

Learn how they work.

Get your advertising links in place.

Establish your daily routine.

Start building your referral network.

Then add additional Traffic Exchanges as you become comfortable with the system.

The Power of 5 isn’t magic.

Nobody is going to magically create thousands of active referrals just because they joined a five-level Traffic Exchange.

The leverage comes from choosing programs that reward multi-level activity, building a network, and — most importantly — keeping that network active.

Build the network.

Keep it active.

Turn the activity into advertising power.

That’s the idea behind The Power of 5: A Traffic Exchange Leverage Strategy.
