One of the easiest ways of getting traffic to any website is by using a very popular means of advertising called a Traffic Exchange. To put it briefly, a Traffic Exchange works like this: you view a member website and in return you will get a visitor to your website. Typically there is a surf (when you are viewing member websites one at a time) ratio such as 3:1 which means you would view three member websites and in return have your website seen once. If you understand this then you’d agree that the best type surf ratio would be one that didn’t exist. 

We put together a Traffic Exchange that solves the surf ratio problem. Instead of a 3:1 ratio or even 1:1 ratio, why not give unlimited website views to you? This makes it one of the best traffic exchanges around.

List Surfing is a new way of using the power behind a Traffic Exchange without the hassle of surfing CONSTANTLY and having to view far more websites than you’ll receive back. Instead, all you need to do is surf 50 websites a month and open 10 member emails every 30 days – you’ll receive unlimited traffic to your website(s) this way. You are not depending on accumulating credits nor are you going to spend a long time trying to grow your credits.

On top of the normal surfing we added an email advertising feature. You are able to email hundreds of other members to advertise your website, and they WANT to open it because they’ll earn more credits and keep their account active.

We’ve received great feedback from members and have made MANY improvements to the features. Signup for Free to ListSurfing and start driving traffic to your websites!

Additional features include text ads, downline builder, banner ads, start pages and more…

Right off the bat I know you’re probably curious and that’s great, but you should also be thinking “Yes, Matt’s right” without even reading more than the title of this post.

Success doesn’t come from luck. Well, sometimes it can but generally speaking it does not. Some lucky cases might be those where business decisions are made without much logic or analysis, yet the results of the small actions are excellent. You might be the type of individual who plays the lottery – you’re lucky if you win but you also wouldn’t have won had you not taken the action of playing in the first place, right? I don’t consider the lottery completely luck because of that pure fact.

Anyway, the reason I know you’ll be successful is simple; you WANT to make it happen and you WILL make it happen. Those are primarily the only two factors that you need to have engraved in your mind. You first need desire, without it there is no reason for success in the first place. Secondly you need to make it happen by putting forth the effort and accomplishing the tasks which will lead you up the ladder. This may sound very simple, and you’re right – it is.

I’ve been involved in internet and network marketing for many years. When I look at the people I met when first starting out or even simply a couple years ago, I see them not much further ahead than they were back then (if at all). In my eyes, it’s because they’re not being as productive as they should be…

Simply put, to have a website on the internet (viewable by the public) you need to have website hosting. There are dozens and dozens of hosting companies I could list out here for you but that would not help you. Instead I’d like to take the opportunity to briefly discuss why free or “cheap” hosting is anti-success.

Yes, I just said “anti-success”. There comes a point in your entrepreneur life when you realize that cutting costs in areas is a poor decision – web hosting is one of them. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying you need to spend $300 a month for dedicated hosting but if you’re not willing to invest a SMALL cost per month to keep your website public and online, it’s not worth your time and effort.

People will tell you “You should use so-and-so for your website hosting because they are cheap and good”. Sorry, but this is NOT a reason to use “so-and-so”. If you have a budget for website hosting that’s understandable so long as you keep in mind spending $6 per month is reasonable (for shared servers).

I’m not here to tell you what to do or who’s best. You can do your own research and find a website hosting company you’re comfortable with, along with a cost.

Here are the facts:

1:  Stay away from free hosting.

• You get very little
• It’s not going to allow you to expand without costs
• There’s no “real” guarantee
• Chances are you’ll get very little support from the company
• Feature wise, you’ll be lucky to get half of the standard features
• They have no obligation to you – you’ve paid them nothing, why would they?

2:  Always go with Paid Hosting

• Average costs can start as little as $3 per month to $20 per month for shared hosting
• Dozens if not hundreds of companies to choose from
• Usually 24/7/365 support – that’s what you want anyway
• Can be scalable – if you grow, they’ll grow with you
• Lots of great server features for your websites
• Some offer unlimited domains/websites on one account
• They have a commitment to you – you’re a PAYING customer

The point of the matter is if you cut corners by going cheap/free, expect to get what you pay for…

I’ll be posting more about this subject soon. Set yourself up for growth because if you don’t in the beginning you’ll probably run into issues later on.
