Traffic generating programs are one
of the quickest ways to get your hit counter spinning
and leave you thinking "WOW this does
work!!" Traffic generators can and will help get
you recognition that a new site needs. Some search
engines prefer a site with a good hit rate, or steady
flow of traffic, and with the help of traffic
generators, you can finally make that possible.
I have recently started using a few
of the more popular traffic generating programs, and
have been thrilled with the results. They really
do work. (Sorry if this seems like hype. But to
me, it was the "miracle cure" my site
needed)
I have been busy experimenting with a
few of the more popular traffic genterating programs.
I am listing them here with a brief report of how
well they did. I will tell you that all did work, but
they differ in small ways. Most of these sites will
also allow you to add any other sites you may have
(affiliate programs too!) You will need a little
extra time to make them work,(you need to surf to get
credits) but if you are new, and your hit counter
reads around 5, then I believe it is very important
to invest the small amount of time needed. I did, and
I have found that I am getting visits from people who
have bookmarked the site, and there are a few search
engines who have finally indexed my site! And I
cannot be positive, but it does seem that I rank
higher in Google now. (you can go to the adfree stats
to see for yourself) It has been quite exciting.
You'll see, I think you're gonna love it.
*If you have tried these or other
traffic generating programs, or banner programs, etc.
Please go to my
Forum, and let us all know how it worked
for you. Thanks!*
Warning!!!
All of these sites do not allow adult content, but I
have had the great displeasure of having to view a
few adult sites that managed to slip in- or adult
advertising on the site, such as banners and popups.
And much to my horror ended up having to shut down my
computer to regain control due to popups. So be
aware, that some of these sites may pop up at any
time....so keep the kids away.So far, it only
happened on 2 of the sites I list...so I will tell
you which ones I encountered.
You can download a Great little popup
killer on the hit harvester login page. Some of these
sites have LOTS of popups, so you may need it!
*TIP*-
Hate those popups?? If
you don't download the popup killer from hitharvester or my Free sites and downloads page, simply select the window on the
taskbar (bottom of screen) that you wish to get rid
of, and press Alt+F4. POOF! All gone!! Enjoy! : )
Clickthru.net-
Great program! To work this program, simply surf for
credit, but you must stay at least 30 seconds. (you
visit one site, they send you one visitor) As you
surf, you are allowed addtional credits for those who
put a bonus icon on their site. If you click on the
icon and win, you get get lots of extra credits.(this
also encourages visitors to look around your site for
these icons. You are also allowed to hold your
credits, so you can deal them out as you wish.
content seems to be clean.
Bad points: It seems that I stopped getting
visitors for a bit. But it has picked back up. Im
sure this is due to the need for new sign ups. (I
believe that you are only allowed to view a site
once, but maybe they are changing this) So the more
who join, the more views everyone gets. Also, before
viewing the next site, you must rate the site you
just saw on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being best.
This is fine except it seems that others do not want
you to get a high score (thus getting more views, and
high ranking for first views). If others were not so
competetive, it would be great. So dont take the
voting to heart at first. People can be cruel, as I
have found out many many times...... : ( Also, there
is no counter or timer to let you know when your time
is up.
I
love clicks- Not bad,
not bad at all. Gets you great traffic. Its similar
to click thru. (in fact, they seem to advertise hand
in hand...) You surf for credit, on a one for one
basis. The big difference is, there is a counter to
automatically let you know when your 30 seconds are
up. You can hold your credits for later. There is no
voting, or bonus credits. However, some webmasters
will offer extra credits at their site. The content
seems clean.
Bad points- The visitors seemed to drop for a
bit. And there is no real incentive for visitors to
view all of your site.
