Marketing Using Traffic Exchanges

If you have been marketing on the Internet any length of time you are aware of how expensive a PPC (pay-per-click) advertising campaign can be. The Internet is a very competitive market which can cost you thousands of dollars with little return for your money.

Traffic exchanges allow marketers to earn credits and advertise their websites to a community of thousands of users within the traffic exchange. As a webmaster, you earn credits by viewing other member’s websites. Credits that are earned are then used to advertise your website. Some of the newer traffic exchanges allow you to purchase hundreds or thousands of credits (hits) for pennies. This can significantly cut down on the amount of time you need to spend manually surfing the traffic exchanges.

Traffic exchanges can also create back links to your website. A website with relevant back links with increase in search engine popularity. So not only can you increase your website page rank, traffic exchanges can be a free or a very inexpensive option for advertising your website to a targeted audience. Traffic exchanges deliver targeted traffic by visitors who are interested in what you have to offer.

Passive Income

The Internet is one form of communication that allows you to get to know and interact with people from all over the world. When I decided to leave the corporate world, I knew that I wanted to continue to work on the Internet. The challenge I faced was having enough time to work on the Internet and run a small brick and mortar business.

My husband and I purchased a motel in Wyoming this year. Running a motel can take up an unbelievable amount of time. Because I enjoy making money and spending time on the Internet, I looked for Internet opportunities where I could make money but not spend all my time at the computer. In other words, I wanted passive income opportunities.

I have found several business opportunities where I can make money without spending hours on the computer. The business opportunity that I have started to focus on is the Forex market; also know as the Foreign Exchange market. This is the largest financial market in the world, with a daily volume in excess of $2 trillion dollars.

Forex trading is simply trading money. You buy one currency and sell another. The exchange rate for the money involved in Forex trading is based on a country’s economy.In reality, there is nothing simple about trading currency. Unless you have an in-depth knowledge of economics and financial markets, I would strongly suggest that you allow more knowledgeable individuals to mentor you in the Forex market.
