1. Lords of Traffic has a new look!

2. Traffic Splash added a new twist to their bonus page that comes up every 15 pages. Now there is an element of chance.

3. This may have been there all along but I just noticed it–Top Tier Traffic added a flashy thingy to their timer. I don’t know what to call it but really like it better than a timer.

4. Soaring 4 Traffic and Hit Safari have partnered to offer Power Surf. When you surf 100 sites at both sites a day, you get bonus credits automatically added in.

There’s a big buzz going around in the traffic exchange community about commissions and exchanges who are not paying them out in a timely manner.

It’s no secret that  you don’t get commissions if you are not promoting the exchange. One thing I love about traffic exchanges is its predictability. I do see a correlation between how much I promote the site to the commissions I earn.

So my question to the exchange owners brining this up is why promote someone you don’t know or someone who doesn’t have a track record? There are so many exchange owners who start off as forum members or loyal customers–why not promote them and say no to a partnership with someone until trust is earned?

The same applies to members. Why would you always jump on the bandwagon of someone new? I get that the potential of building a huge downline is tempting, but how will it pay off when nobody upgrades so you don’t get commissions. I have also seen and partnered with exchanges who looked so promising, only to have the exchange owner practically abandon the site and move on to something shinier. There is something to be said about track record and longevity in the business.

So who pays me? Here’s my top 3 list of exchanges who pay me commissions–because I believe in their programs and promote them, not accidentally.

1. Soaring 4 Traffic
2. Traffic Bunnies
3. Traffic Taxis

My two exchanges, Click Ranch and Cheetah Traffic, also pay commissions and I promise we pay out within hours.

Who are your Top 3 paying exchanges?
