Where Can I Find Referrals?

A common frustration of those engaged in internet marketing is that most programs require you to refer people thereby increasing your income potential. I was recently shown GetRef.com

The person who showed this to me says the following :

If you haven't figured it out yet, the key to serious pocket money online is getting referrals, but you have to get a few to start the wheels turning. This is the easiest place to do that hands down. If you earn credits by signing up to other programs, click links, win the contest or get referrals for GetRef, you WILL get referrals for your own pet program from over 2000 of them.

Go on - take a look for yourself - you'll be glad you did!

WTE - South African Traffic Exchange

I had never heard of this manual traffic exchange until stumbling upon it recently. It seems well run despite the uninspiring front page and I received hits on my listed sites within hours of placing my links and surfing for a short while. The owners desperately need the services of a decent graphic designer. The banners are totally uninspiring and the layout of the pages is shocking - however, it seems to work!

They specialise in South African traffic but accept URLS from all over the world.

WTE is currently on a campaign to become the first traffic exchange with 1 million members! The jury is out on whether this will be achieved or not but I feel its worth a shot if it will bring me traffic!

Yuwie - 10 days later - report back

On the 12th of this month I posted a story about Yuwie - the online social network that pays you to do all the things you would do on a site like Facebook. This is the report-back from 10 days later.

Some comments :

1) It is great fun meeting people from all over the world - granted not all will be become your best friend but they are certainly interesting.

2) The more friends you add to your circle, the higher your number of page views and therefore your payout.

3) There is some genuinely interesting writing in the notices and blogs on the site - sure there is some junk but you soon learn whose stuff to read and whose to leave alone!

4) With a little bit of effort (about 1-2 hours a day) it is possible to develop a considerable number of page views over time. At the time of writing I had the following stats :

September Page Views - Your Views: 976 Referral Views: 2,327

This network is growing at an incredible rate. When I signed up I was number 62 099 - the latest figures show the number of sign-ups to be 88 583! That's an increase of almost 26500 in just over 10 days! Such rapid growth is encouraging to the advertisers on Yuwie who will now be paying more to have their ads shown - good news for us as it means higher revenue for Yuwie who share it with us!

For those of us living in South Africa the picking is still very ripe as many South Africans still need to hear about this opportunity.

If you have not yet signed up, do so now - its free so you've got nothing to lose!

I will continue to keep you updated on my progress.

ScreenSaver Traffic - Brings In Traffic During Your Downtime!

ScreenBlaze is a traffic exchange which operates through your screensaver. That means that for each and every minute that your computer is showing the ScreenBlaze screensaver, you'll earn credits. Those credits will then be spent on showing your web site to other people who are running the screensaver.

The system is 10-levels deep, which means you can build a network of people 10 levels below you that are all earning credits for YOU. In essence, for each minute any of your referrals 10 levels below you is running the screensaver, you'll earn credits!

For each minute your screensaver or someone in your downline's screensaver is running, you will earn 1/10 of a credit (because our system is 10 levels deep).

This is perhaps one of the most powerful aspects of ScreenBlaze. It's one thing to get credits as your screensaver is shown, but imagine how fast that could multiply if you referred just a few people and they let their screensavers run.

This is a powerful tool to generate traffic to your site. The only downside may be this - how many people are actually watching their monitors when the screensavers are showing?

However, I am giving this a try and will post results in the next month. Why not join me in giving it a try - it won't cost you a cent but could enhance your traffic nicely! Click here to find out more.

Earn cash-back!

This site describes itself as South Africa's top cashback site.

It works by allowing you to shop online and then earn a portion of your spend back in cash. All the merchants and services listed on the Fat Wallet site are willing to pay a small commission for each customer sent to them. This is a very popular method used by online merchants to promote their websites. Fat Wallet then directs you to the merchant`s site via an online link, collects the commission on your behalf and passes that commission back to you in the form of cashback.

There is no membership fee and you cancel your membership anytime without prejudice.

With a large selection of online stores you should have no problem with Christmas presents, birthday gifts and so on.

You are also able to refer people to FatWallet which then earns you referral fees.
