Traffic Increase to your Blog through Traffic Exchange

Manual Traffic Exchange
Manual Blog Traffic Exchange communities operate on a basis of a reciprocal viewing ratio: every member, by visiting other members’ Blogs in the network, is earning credits that could be exchanged for visits by other community members to his own Blog. Some traffic exchange networks also encourage members to buy additional credits, which will be translated to the non-reciprocal visitors’ traffic. Among the main benefits of using traffic exchange as a method of the blog promotion is opportunity of getting extra traffic from the fellows-bloggers that you would never get in any other way. The communities’ members are the blogging fans themselves, so you get the traffic from the people that might be interesting in what you can offer. However, I would not personally consider this traffic as high quality traffic. The reason of this downgrading is based on the fact that most participants review the sites for simple credit making without an actual interest in the Blogs they are viewing through, frequently not even noticing, what is happening on the screen. Another disadvantage of the manual traffic exchange – it is very time-consuming. Indeed, you click and click, and at the end you get several visitors to your site that even might not note what it is about. And, finally, this area comes too close to the borders of the permitted by AdSense traffic generation guidelines. Just wanted to cite to you a clarification on the topic from the AdSense official Blog:

Traffic!

I want to talk about all the many traffic sites out there. How they can get you some traffic but at the same time you need credits in order to have your link shown. Thus is what most of our problem is. If your like me and do not have the extra cash to buy credits then you should look for other ways to advertise. Surfing is a way but you waste so much time for so little credits. And after all it's not about the credits anyway. It's about making money.

Traffic Exchanges and Protecting Bloggerparty Members

Luckily, Bloggerparty has not had much trouble with people signing up for traffic exchanges. But we do have in place measures to help protect myself and Bloggerparty members from getting in trouble with AdSense because of illegal traffic sources.

Put simply, traffic and click exchanges are banned from referring to our site, meaning that if somebody does sign up the site or their blog on the site on one of these websites, when somebody using such a website surfs to our site, they get an Access Denied and cannot even view the website.
