Traffic Exchange vs Blog Exchange
As a blogger I understand the need to have my writing seen by a large audience. Finding a readership is important because it helps to get a ranking in the search engines. The question for a newbie though, is what is better – a blog exchange like Blog Explosion or a Traffic Exchange such as Lords -of-Traffic or Traffic Era?
For a blogger the blog exchange is probably best. People who surf traffic exchanges are usually not interested in reading blogs. As a newbie one needs to deal with a whole new language when surfing traffic exchanges – for example splash pages, banners etc. Bloggers do not normally have their own banners and so the whole thing can be quite confusing.
The two exchanges I have mentioned here offer a blog for use. The Traffic Era blog is not something that can be easily circulated. It is part of the member’s profile and it is lacking a lot of features that could make it a useful tool or resource. On the other hand the blog at Lords-of-Traffic, which has only been introduced recently, has many more features. The blog resource is only available to the upgraded member, so if a person wants to use the blog resource then he or she needs to be upgraded.
In the world of Traffic Exchanges a blog can be useful as a marketing resource but there are some limitations with most blog providers. The biggest limitation on bloggers has been Ad Sense and their rules which make it hard to circulate blogs from Blogger and yes even from WordPress. The obvious answer to the problem is to simply not allow Ad Sense on the blog. In that way one can circulate the blog at any exchange without breaching the TOS of either Blogger, Word Press or Ad Sense. Personally, I cannot understand why Ad Sense was cracking up over 10 cents in earnings which I never received.
So if you have an internet marketing business the best place to advertise in a Traffic Exchange, if you blog for personal reasons then the best place is a blog exchange such as Blog Explosion. If you want to read blogs then join Blog Explosion, not a Traffic Exchange.
This schedule works well for me.
