Traffic Exchange Tracking Results reveal some surprises

Traffic Exchange tracking – what a joy. At a basic level its pretty
simple, to test the effectiveness of relative squeeze pages and
comparing performance across selected Exchanges.

Right now I’m testing over 60 exchanges for effectiveness and tweaking squeeze pages as a I go.

At the same time, I’ve embarked on testing the relative effectiveness of various downline builders (more about this later)

The method of tracking I use is that I allocate each Traffic Exchange a
starting score of 200 and then using Pro Tracker Plus, I established three seperate campaigns

A splash page campaign designed to get subscribers to my own program
A downline building campaign designed to get referrals to my traffic exchange engine
A product campaign advertising my own Traffic related product

Within each campaign I then established a seperate sub campaign for each Traffic Exchange that I wanted to test, allowing me to track clicks, actions and sales of each campaign on each exchange.

To perform at par I believe a Traffic Exchange should be capable of delivering at least one hit per minute spent on the exchange and deliver one quantifiable action per 100 page views.

So I expect a Traffic Exchange that I’m tracking to be performing at that level – if they did perform at that exact level, then they would retain their score of 200.

My tracking has thrown up some surprising results, not least of which has been the outstanding performance of Traffic Roundup which has consistently outperformed all Traffic exchanges for responsiveness.

Over the two week period Traffic Round up has returned a score of 602 with both weeks proving to be very strong. But they weren’t the only top performers.
