How productively use a traffic rotator!

What is a traffic rotator? How can you benefit from using a traffic rotator? How is effective split testing used with traffic rotators? A traffic rotator is very useful tool when utilized properly.

A traffic rotator is a link where you can insert multiple links within itself. So everytime your click on the the rotator link, it will cycle thru all the links your put into the rotator link evenly. If you are promoting more than one program or running more than one advertisement at a time, this can be very useful and time effective. All you need to do when you want to change your link rotation is change one or more of the links in your traffic rotator url. This feature is used by the majority of marketers online however, traffic rotators can be used for a more important tactic.

Traffic rotators are one of the best ways to split test your links to find out which ones are the most effective with pulling in sales or double opin subscribers. Lets say that you have 5 links in a traffic rotator and they all are geared toward getting optin subscribers.

Lets say these links look like this for example….

yoursite.com/yoursite1.html
yoursite.com/yoursite2.html
yoursite.com/yoursite3.html
yoursite.com/yoursite4.html
yoursite.com/yoursite5.html

Now you will create a redirect URL for your double optin autoresponder which will redirect the subscriber to another website after they enter their name and e-mail address.
Now the trick is to track your redirect url so that you know which rotator url your subscribers come from.

So lets say your tracking links look like this…

yoursite.com/track1
yoursite.com/track2
yoursite.com/track3
yoursite.com/track4
yoursite.com/track5

If your redirect url is tracked with yoursite.com/track2 more than the other tracked redirects than you will see which rotator link is performing better than the others. Now you can promote that more effective rotator link and delete the other less effective ones.
This is one way to effectively split test your sites and save yourself time and money looking for productive links and sales copy.

Not tracking your ads is ultimately costing your money. If you are able to promote an effective ad for a prolonged period of time and create sales without any additional effort besides advertising then you are doing yourself a huge favor.

So take the time to split test your ads, it doesn’t take very long and does not take much effort but reaps huge rewards.
I hope that this article has helped you get an idea of how to use traffic rotators effectively in your marketing efforts.

Traffic Rotator

Thursday, March 9th, 2006

There are thousands of traffic exchanges out there and at one time I used to surf 98 or so a day. Since then I learned that the most popular exchanges are surfed by everybody frequently so it is much better to concentrate your efforts on 4 to 16 exchanges depending on your internet connection speed. This way you will accumulate many more credits in select exchanges and get your affiliate site seen by a large percentage of people more than once. The more people who see your website over and over the more inclined they are to check it out. I will explain more in depth on how to make your stand out from the crowd when I get the tools out that are the best for you to join. The most important thing that will save you a lot of time is to use a rotator that will rotator more than one affiliate url. You can simply go and log into your rotator site and change your link anytime you’d like without having to log into all your traffic exchanges and doing it manually. The best rotator that is out there can be found at Page Swirl . Its very easy to use and they give you 5 sites to rotate as a free member. I have never had the need to upgrade to unlimited sites but you can if you choose.

Traffic Exchange Branding

Thursday, March 9th, 2006

You need to stand out when your pages are being shown! When you start surfing you will see many pages of all different varieties. You may see a number of pages from the same type of business depending on what is hot on the net at the current moment. The problem with that is that you don’t know who is behind those pages and who is promoting them. The chances are that if you saw the same name all the time promoting a business with an e-mail address you may be inclined to check out what they have or e-mail them.You will probably get the perception that they know what they are doing and are very successful online. Now what if you were that person showing your name along with your business, phone number and e-mail? You will start receiving e-mails and phone call from people asking you to help mentor them and help them make money. Its alot easier to market when people come to you.

In addition to standing out from the crowd you need to generate leads! yes leads! The best way to generate leads is to create a lead capture page promising them some type of valuable information. All they need to do is submit their name and e-mail address and your auto responder will automatically follow up with a series of messeges containing your promise to them.

You not only will sell your information to your subscribers but you will also be able to shoot them random e-mails outside of your automatic messege series relating the same information. There are a number of paid autoresponders out there but if your budget is small I would think about using emailaces for free.
