Why is Direct referral important?
In any PTC, direct referrals are 50% of the equation of
success. Direct referrals tend to be more reliable than rented referrals, as they are
more likely to be active clickers. Plus, you don’t have to pay to keep them - you will make money as long as they keep
clicking - imagine if some of your referrals stay
active for months, maybe even years.
You should get as many direct referrals as
you can - up to the maximum that your PTC allows. Since you don’t pay to keep them, they will earn money for you
everyday. Then you can use that money to rent
referrals and renew referrals.
PTC’s have different rules around direct
referrals, so make sure you understand the rules carefully before advertising
on a mass scale. For example, in Neobux, you cannot get any DR’s until 30 days after registration - all attempts before that will fail!
A guaranteed, surefire way to get direct referrals for
free is to use Traffic Exchanges (TE). In a nutshell, this is how a traffic exchange works. You surf
websites and earn credits, and these credits get traffic to your website. In
most traffic exchanges, 1 credit equals 1 view, but it varies from program to program.
The reason you need to join a traffic exchange is because
you need a way to consistently promote your referral links so you can gain referrals. Other methods, such as getting
people on Facebook, require too much work and take too long to see immediate results. TE’s allow
you to gain referrals in a predictable way, without the need to prospect on Facebook or do some crazy
advertising.
EasyHits4U is one of the most well known traffic
exchanges around. They have a large user base with over 400,000 members, and that means lots of potential referrals! Their system
is easy to use and they have tons of tools for you to promote your websites. EasyHits4U is
definitely worth a look.
There are thousands of traffic exchanges out
there. Just Google Search for a full list of traffic exchanges.
Maximizing Traffic Exchanges
Spending 30 minutes a day surfing on Traffic
Exchanges dramatically increases your direct referral count. To maximize surfing, use tabbed browsing on your
browser.
You should use EasyHits4U and other traffic
exchanges at the same time. You can also click ads on Neobux and other PTC’s as
you are surfing the traffic exchanges. That way, you get everything done within
those 30 minutes. We are building multiple branches of the tree at the same
time.
If you are too lazy to surf for credits, there are
alternate options for you. You can upgrade your account and get anywhere from 1000 to 2000 credits per
month. Also, you can refer others to the traffic exchanges, and earn a % of the
credits they earn. For more information, join EasyHits4U read about their referral program.
For best results, do not promote your
referral links. But what do you mean? Isn’t the whole point to gain referrals?
We say that because in a traffic exchange, you only 15 to
30 seconds to get people’s attention. So you need to make those 15 to 30 seconds count. They need to see what your offer is
at a glance, because if they are not interested, they will move on, and you will lose them forever.
For best results, advertise your capture page. For more info on capture pages, please read the next posts.
