Getting Zaney for Halloween in TEland

Posted on by

cat11Once upon a time there was a Horror Movie that was written about TEland and I am going to share.  There were so many that have said that traffic exchanges are dead and that they don’t work – well listen to this.

Being a Veteran in TEland, most don’t know that Krazy Kaye had a son and daughter and they were called Yuppie and Flash.  I heard thru the Grapevine that they were abducted by aliens and sacrificed to a Volcano.  BUT before she could carry out the lucid deed of tossing them to the mythology Gods a crosseyed humanoid snatched them up and took off at supersonic speed.

In the starship, they were greeted by a Ninja who told them this was going to be a simple trip and was no BS.  There were going on a heavenly Magical Journey where they would get to visit all the landmark TE’s in TEland.

J136515432424188629_hTUzqRiC_bust then there was an insta pop and the ship was going to have to make an landing on the glacier but they could see that they were headed over this farm with Holy Cows being chased by a wildcat but all of a sudden after going thru the rainforest – they could see the Speedway ahead.

As they were coming to a stop they could see the big beach ahead and it looked like they had landed in Costa Rica.  They got out of the Spybubble and were going to sleuth  around while the Handyman fixed their ship.

When they got to the Bella’s everyone there was double nice till IT came from the Lounge and wanted to know why we had not been to The Dance the Hot Spot in town as they were going to be listening to the Oldies tonight and there were going to be some Big Bad Hits at this super party.

I love Hits so decided to tag along when five Zombies started chasing us and out of no where came these dogs to the rescue.  People were yelling get them Fred, get them Shaggy and then out of the corner of my eye I seen these cute Teacup Puppies.  Well the Zombies took off like tons of website traffic.

Tezak, the old wise man, said he had enough excitement today, wanted some just good peace and quiet and didn’t want to be in the spotlight so headed to the Waters Edge to enjoy the splash of the sealife.  Worried about him, Yuppie and Flash decided to go find Tezak to make sure he was ok and they were all eaten by this Smiley Bass who swirled away like a cyclone – never to be seen again

coolcat2So now the only place to hear about these legends is on click roads delivering traffic – take a tour sometimes to surf and learn from the experience, emazing, quality magicians that know how In TEland.  So this should put a stop to the rumor that TE’s are dead – as you can see they are set up to live on with the advertising know how

 

 

 

Setting the Record Straight

Posted on by

judgingcatWell in my email tonight, I mentioned that I was going to write a blog post and it’s funny how rumors sure fly in the TEland Peyton Place – so I’m setting the record straight.

You know how I always preach it’s not what happens that matters but how you handle  it will make all the difference – well I’m going to hit it head on.  And the one that I heard that am still laughing about is am I trying to take over the TE business and the answer is no actually hell no .

The other rumor that I have heard is that the sites that I am admin at now are going to be closing their doors and that is NO they are not.  Folks sometimes life just happens and you have to deal with it the best you can.

Over the years, in this TEland Peyton Place, I have learned never believe what you hear and go straight to the person and ask when you hear something being said and there has been lot of you that have and enough that I thought I would write this blog post.

Let me put all your minds to ease Handyman Hits, Sleuth Traffic and ClickFred Traffic are here to stay and are not going anywhere.  Like I said earlier, life happens and sometimes you just need a helping hand.  AND that is all that I’m doing helping out some friends and I hope someday when life happens that I have some friends that will help me out.

So many times, I have been accused of being too old school – well maybe I am but I still believe in helping a friend when they need it.  That being said over the years I have left my doors open for lot of people (site owners also) and have been the type of person that drops what I’m doing to help someone else.

I hope that clears the TE “air” a bit and I  will be doing the best job I can as ADMIN of the above sites. As always, the door is always open for suggestions which I will be happy to hear and pass on   to the Owners.”  Just Skype me @ nancyradlinger or email me at either of the sites that I’m admin at or look this Zaney Granny up on Zaney Clicks.

 

My Aha Moment Today

Posted on by

aha3It’s interesting how you can by accident run across things that you want to hit yourself upside the head and go why didn’t I think about this sooner.  Those aha moments – well I just had one today and thought I’d share.

Today I have been working on my mailers and getting things set up with the new system at Viral Mail Profits  as I was determined to take the time to finish setting up all the mailers and safelists that I was in as in the long run I will thank myself at the time it will save me.

If you have been like me, I jumped on the bandwagon and tested them out and now I know for sure that they work and now with the new tool on Viral Mail Profits and now with Ulti Send added – well I’m excited as just from the few I have sent to – it’s so worth taking the time to set up.

Now I don’t know about you but when I sign up to a mailer, safelist, etc. , I always set up a filter for each site in my email account and then when I’m mailing out at a particular mailer – all I have to do is go to that site’s folder and click emails to get the credits that I need.

Well, today I was working on this and after clicking, clicking and clicking emails earning my credits – – don’t know about you but I then hit the select all and delete what I didn’t get to as by the time that I do get back they will be expired – right or wrong?  Let’s just say it works for me and keeps me from seeing +999 all the time in the files.

Now I was just working up a storm and doing this routine when ONE of the times that I was hit the delete button – I had my aha moment.  Now wouldn’t it be smart instead of just deleting all them – I go thru all those subject lines and make a file of test subject lines – you know when you go brain dead like I do and just can’t think of something that would maybe get someone to open.

So yes you guess it, I made a new file and just scrolled down all these subject lines and picked some that I thought I’d like to try – and the real aha moment was watching all the ones that I was just scrolling on by and again another aha moment – what was it in these that just made me scroll on by.

Well you need to go to one of those files and try this – scroll down thru all those +999 emails that you have and it will be an eye-opener for you – it sure was for me.  If you do this, I think you will get much better at your subject lines.

The other exercise that you should pay attention to is when you are clicking and reading the emails – which ones stopped you and you really read.  Which ones did you open and couldn’t wait to get to that credit link.

Hope this will make you pay attention to things more and also don’t be so quick on hitting that delete button – there may just be lessons for you in what you are deleting.  You may just have one of your aha moments – let me hear them if you do.

Rumor is they do not work

Posted on by

rumor1After chatting with a friend of mine this morning and we were talking about places that we get referrals from and then it came up that rumor is they do not work.  Have you heard this before – I know I have many times and you know how you can stop the rumors – track, track, track and I’m going to give you some examples.  These examples are from my tracker mod and it tracks where members have their links – the admin stats are separate and not listed.

CTP – love them or hate them – sometimes you run across things that you may not totally agree with the way the owners are doing things or you simply don’t like the owners – but ask yourself are why are you making the decision to use or not use a site and here are the results from there – copied from my tracker and you will see the domain name, amount of hits and then last number is amount of signups

clicktrackprofit.com 1549 124

Donkeymails – rumor is they do not work – now I know I have heard that this site is a spam site, it don’t work and is a waste of time but after seeing the tracking results

donkeymails.com 32 5

PTC sites – rumor is they do not work and are waste of of time – how many times have you heard that.  All the people on PTC (paid to click) just click and don’t really look at the ads – sound familiar?

clixsense.com 14014 3

Mailers – rumor is they do not work as I have sent so many emails and not one signup – one thing that people do it blame the site – have you ever thought about changing what you are sending out, change your headline and test, test, test.

buzzymailz.com 112 3
clickfrede-mail.com 300 2

Brand new sites – often I’m asked why jump into a new site when you don’t know the owner or if the site is going to stick around and have always felt that you just need to keep you site out there so that you can prove to people that YOU or your site that you promote is one of them that are – be seen everywhere you can – JMO

costaricaclicks.net 2190 4
traffix.us 30 3

Downline Builders – why spend the time to fill your referral id’s in  – no one ever looks at them anyway – well I have one example that proves they they do

trafficleads2income.com 9 2

Site is too Big and has too many members – forgot this one and came back to add as this is also important one as lot of people tell me this site don’t work also

easyhits4u.com 17683 3

Now the other thing that I want you to pay attention to is how many hits it takes sometimes and for the people that tell you try a site – buy 1000 credits and if no signups move on – well think the stats tell all.

So now I hope that you can see how important it is to track, track, track and then you don’t have listen to the rumor is they do not work.  This is the only way that you will know for sure.  Now keep in mind what works for one person may not work for another that is why you have to test, track, test, track.

Changes and Updates

Posted on by

It’s been interesting all the talk around TEland on the some of the changes and updates that some sites are making and when I listen to the good and bad of all the comments well you know me I have to add my 2 cents.

judgingcatChanges and updates are not the easiest thing for me either especially when you get my age – I’m a little set in my ways but there is one saying that always sticks in my head and wanted to share.  A friend of mine told me this years ago so I really don’t know who said it – but It’s not what happens that really matters but how you handle it will make all the difference.

In this world of computer and technology, you have to learn to go with the flow – changes and updates happen all the time and when they do you are not going to understand them all the time but there is usually a reason behind them.  It’s not easy  working online as there are so many out there that are just waiting to take advantage of the hard working honest people.

In TEland there have been some changes and updates and it’s been geared toward security of people sites.  There are behind the scene changes and updates made on sites that you are on everyday and most of the time you don’t even know they are happening.  The one that most don’t even pay attention to is site terms – when is the last time that you have read your favorite site’s terms?

Yea I’m just as guilty as most of you – we all are so busy trying to just keep up, to get our referrals, earn commissions that we forget about these behind the scene things.  Most site owners try and inform their members via their emails but the % of member read them is so low that most don’t have a clue when changes and updates happen.

changesSo I thought I would let all of you know here that Zaney Clicks also did some changes and updates – some you will like – some you want but they were done for the health of the site.  Zaney Clicks is not here just to flaunt high surfing numbers, high member numbers, etc.: it’s here to help you promote your site, get traffic to your site, give you a place that you know the owner is active and working hard to help you learn and earn.

004I054YQm2Also, I believe in keeping the line of communication open at Zaney Clicks and that is why I encourage members to talk to me.  You will see that it’s very easy to get in touch with me – there is a contact me tab on the site, there is a Zaney Clicks Skype support room and can be easily joined from your members page, there is an ask Admin on the members page, there is a daily email that I send out,  Zaney Clicks has a group on Facebook, you can always contact me on Skype @ nancyradlinger   Don’t be afraid to contact me I answer all my support tickets and I love hearing from all of you.

So hope that as changes and updates are made on some of your favorite sites keep in mind my quote “It’s not what happens that really matters but how you handle it will make all the difference”.

One is a lonely number

Posted on by
25

Well I am going to date myself but do you remember the song by Three Dog Night – it was called “ONE” and the line One is a Lonely Number.  For all of you that want a walk down memory lane – watch the video below.

Now I know what you are wondering what in the world does that have to do with my blog post – well actually alot as I have been meaning to write this for awhile.  AND I want to gear this post to all the people who I hear that they don’t get any referrals, they are not earning any money online, and they don’t know where to turn.

Well now you will see where the “ONE” comes from – if you are a person that can relate with any of the above – maybe it’s time to back up and reevaluate what you are doing.  When I first started as an affiliate, I found myself joining many programs and then not knowing which one to promote first.

My advice to you is to step back, look at all your affiliate programs you are in no matter what they are and ask yourself some things.  Break down your list into sites that I am upgraded in vs you are a free member of.  Do you have a monthly upgrade or do you have a lifetime membership.  Now research and see what your commissions are in each of the upgraded programs you are in.  Got that info yet?

Ok do you know which if any of these programs you have gotten referrals in?  Have you been tracking to know what page got you the referrals.  Did you connect with your referrals that you did get – do they know you are their person to go to.  You would be surprised how many times I ask this and 80% of the time people have no clue who they joined under and have never heard from the person they joined under.

Once you have done this – what did you learn?  If you listen to your referral, you will find out why they joined under you and you can start developing a game plan.  Was it because you had a branded page, did you design your own page, which page did they join from and what kind of help do they need.

numberoneGetting a layout of your game plan now?  Well you should be – you should know by your tracking and talking with your referral what worked to get them to the site.  Now that you have that, then start with the ONE site with the most referrals and get out there and promote that ONE site for the next 30 days doing all the things that you have just found out – why your referrals signed up, what page worked, from tracking what sites worked.

If you found that it was a safelist, mailer, text ad site etc., then you may want to join a few more of these type of sites and get your ads out there.  Use your ONE ad and put it in everyone of these sites that you belong to and just repeat it for the next 30 days.

Now I know you all are thinking about what about all the other sites that I’m an affiliate of  – well they have to go on the back burner for right now.  You can NOT promote multiple sites and get results until you have some kind of game plan on what it working and get that game plan down – once you are getting signup from what you are doing – then you add a 2nd site – and do what they call a rinse & repeat,

Is this going to work for every site that you are an affiliate at – the answer is no – but at least you have an outline of what to do to get your game plan – and then tweak it for each site.  Just remember ONE is a lonely number but get a game plan on that ONE site and you will be able to move on after that.

Judging a Traffic Exchange

Posted on by

judgingcatAround the TE world, I know that you have heard many, many reasons why a person joins a site and thought I’d share some of the things that I have heard on how people are judging a traffic exchange.  Why did you click that join button?

Design

This is one that I hear from most that you have to have a fancy expensive design or people are not going to join – a fancy design will get them to join.

Owner/Admin

Well this is one that personally I feel that will make or break a site.  If the owner is never around to keep the site running smoothly, approving sites, and answering support tickets – that makes me wonder why the site exists.

qualityTraffic/Exposure

This one I have heard a lot about – quality vs quantity and I find this interesting as there are so many different points of view on this one.  Personally, if you track what you are doing you will see where your results are coming from.

Referrals

Do you get any signups from this site – and do you if you are – you have to be tracking to know for sure.  Some sites have a mod that will tell you where your referrals came from, do you know?  When you win referrals, are you getting active referrals or just some number in the system just so they can say they gave you a free referral.

Cash/earning potential

This one of the most talked about and where you like it or not, personally I feel cash is here to stay.  Now the key is how do you get that cash and what is the earning potential of the site.  Does the site pay free members, do you have to be upgraded, is there a certain amount to reach to be paid AND does the owner pay

Activity of the Site

Thought this one was interesting when listening in some of the chat rooms – this could include timers. promos, team surfing, chat – sometimes you learn alot from just lurking and listen to what others are saying.  What do you consider an active site.

711a9ba4f608404a8216d90Promotion/Advertising

Does the site give you plenty of options for promoting your referral url or just have the basics – main url, 1 splash, 1 banner?  Do you see the site you just joined being promoted by others?  Can you brand yourself with this site?  What is this site doing to help me?

Themes/Ad Copy

Personally, I feel that your advertising on each site should be geared toward the viewers of a particular site and with a little imagination a great page that will convert could be made.  AND how about the same generic ad copy on the main page – this is one of the most over-looked areas – with all the sites out there tell me WHY I need to click that join button.

Well I can see that I could go on and on here and please as you leave comments I’d like to hear from you on your thoughts on judging a traffic exchange.

Maintenance Checklist

Posted on by

maintenance2When a person is on their computer as much as I am there are sometimes that you can tell when something just isn’t doing what it’s suppose to be doing or you catch yourself saying to yourself wonder why it did that – well I drop what I’m doing and get out my maintenance checklist.

In answering support tickets, I hear so many people having issues with a variety of things and there don’t seems to be any logical reason – well when that happens to me the first thing I do is stop everything that I’m doing and do what I call my maintenance.  Now I know you don’t expect your vehicle to keep running smooth without after a certain amount of miles – you stop and do maintenance.

You computer is your vehicle and even tho you have an anti-virus system on board – it’s like the vehicle you drive – things happen.  After all the miles you put on your vehicle, when you are using that vehicle everyday – you can just tell when something just isn’t right – well that is how I feel about my online vehicle – go by your gut – if it’s doing things that are just not normal and you are thinking why did it do that – do your maintenance.

Maintenance Checklist

1.  Clean all your cookies
2.  Clean your history, all temp files, caches
3.  Run your anti-virus (I know you are thinking I have it on auto to run – well run it again)
4.  Run Malewarebytes
5.  Run Spybot
6. Reboot,  test your computer again still not acting right
7. Do all of the above in the safe mode (when booting up hit F8 and that will get you to the safe mode)
8. Reboot,  and test your computer again

maintenanceNow when I get to this point and it still doesn’t seem to be right then I go and bring out the big guns lololol  Run ESET online scanner.  The last time I ran this after all the other security that I have this program found 2 Trojans and 6 other things that I had no clue what they were – after that cleaning – knock on wood – my computer has been lot faster, has been working great and don’t see those strange things happening.

So hope this helps you to at least know some things to try when things just don’t seem right with your computer.  To keep this handy, I just opened notepad and copied all these things to do so this forgetful mind don’t miss a step and named it Maintenance Checklist.

 

Are you suffering from surfing boredom

Posted on by

boredomIt’s interesting when you lurk in the chat rooms at what you can listen to and all of a sudden a blog post idea pops up.  While surfing some promos today, I heard people talking about needing more coffee to wake up and that they were having a hard time staying awake so the question popped in my head – are you suffering from surfing boredom?????

If you answered this with a yes – well there could be many reasons why and going to list a few of them here.

Same ole, same ole ads

This can be boring on many sites if the members are seeing the same home page after another – you have heard me preach time and time again – make your page stand out do something different that will wake up that surfer.  Now I know you are thinking well I don’t know how to design pages and not creative – well have you tried?  If you think you CAN or you think you CANT…. you are probably right…….Henry Ford.

One ad after another

Have you ever been on a site and it’s just one ad after another – there is nothing to break up the routine – you are thankful to get to a bonus page as it woke you up.   Personally, when I’m surfing, I need something that is going to make me do something beside click, click, click.

Alot of people don’t agree with having games on sites  but personally I feel they break up the boredom.  On my site I have been testing things and have found that members are paying attention as weekly they have a new Treasured Site to find from clues in the emails and they have a chance to win an upgrade.  Also, I pick a text ad from the site and have them look for it and they have to click on it and send in the name of the site for a chance to get a free referral.

When this first started, I got maybe 5 – 6 support tickets but I’m so proud of my members as those support tickets are up to 50 – 60 a week now.  Now I know some owners are going OMG on that many tickets – but you know what is great to me – that has opened up the line of communication with me and my members and to my surprise I have some really smart “cats” out there (hehe)

So the next time you are surfing, think about it – does playing hangman wake up you up and are you more alert on the next pages that you view.  How about clicking on those frown faces – didn’t they wake you up and surfing didn’t seem so boring afterwards.

Same sales copy

“If you’re not using Manual Traffic exchanges you’re leaving 100’s and 1000’s of subscribers and Referrals on the table.”

How many of you have seen this and think oh no another same ole, same ole site well when I see this I’m am surfing boredom before I even get inside.  To me it tells me that the owner don’t care about making his/her site unique to them and I really don’t care how great your traffic is, what you offer on the inside – having this on your main page sends out a message to others – this is your place to add some excitement – make them want to join and come in and see what you offer on the inside.  JMO

So I ask again “Are you suffering from surfing boredom” think about how you can get some excitement in the exchange that you are surfing or the site that you own.

“You don’t have to be great to get started but you have to get started to be great.” – Les Brown
