Need some extra cash? Well surf 100 pages at Major League Hits and Help Hits and you qualify to win $5! There will be 10 winners in all, 5 from each exchange.

Blue-Surf continues to mature as it once again makes some significant changes!

From now on, the timer will no longer display while surfing. Also, the surfbar images will now load in the background so that once the timer is up, the images will be ready to display! These two changes should drastically improve your surfing experience at Blue-Surf. From my own unprofessional testing, the surfing was much faster!

The other change is one you should all enjoy, more bonuses! Now for every 20 pages you surf, you could win one of the following bonuses:

1. Between 2 and 8 credits
2. 50, 75, or 100 banner impressions
3. 50, 75, or 100 text link impressions

Today Traffic-Splash is doubling your daily surf rewards! For example if you surf 100 pages and you get 1,000 free banner ads or 2,000 free text ads!

Major League Hits is once again running their Home Run Derby! Today you have a chance to win a start page ad, cash, and credits. All you have to do is surf and be lucky enough to find the prize pages!

Brand your name! Brand your face! Blah blah blah. You hear it from all of these so called experts, but what is the real value of branding? Here is a real life story from me. In fact you may have seen unravel before your eyes without even realizing it.

Want to know the truth about TEscoop? I may lay my referral links all over the place here, but I hardly get any referrals from TEscoop at all! The truth is that most of you that visit here are already fairly avid traffic exchange users, which means you are likely a member of most major TE’s. That makes my referral links pretty much useless. So why bother?

I started TEscoop with one major goal in mind, and that was to brand myself. I spent hours and hours surfing to promote TEscoop, which earned me nothing financially(and continues to earn nothing)! It may seem like a waste of time because I’m not earning any money from this website, but we have to look at the bigger picture. It helped brand my name in the industry!

In less than 2 months, several owners from big traffic exchanges recognized me and the work that I was doing! That is amazing if you think about it. How powerful is branding? When several big traffic exchange owners recognize your name and the work that you do, that is worth more than a few sales.

Since then, I’ve made some valuable connections and at least brought attention to who I am and what I do. Am I big player yet? No. But branding has brought me one step closer and made the process much easier. It’s helped me make my own  mark with TEscoop and EliteSafelist. The big boys like Jon Olson keep telling you that branding is key, but I don’t think I’ve ever understood it as well as I do today.

Folks, if anything is to be learned from this, listen to the experts! If you want to achieve their success, you should pay attention to what they do and say. You can disagree, but at least acknowledge and recognize their message. They have achieved their success for a reason!

So here is one more guy telling you to brand yourself. It doesn’t take much work to just put a picture up on your splash pages and let people know who is the person behind the business. You may or may not recognize me as a big name or an expert. But remember, it was only about 6 months ago that almost no one knew the name Solomon Huey!

Hit2Hit has once again turned on the 6 second timer! Enjoy the faster surfing today and tomrrow.

On a quick side note, the owner of  StartXchange, Tim Linden, has been publishing weekly interviews on his blog from many different traffic exchange owners. I have to highlight this week’s interview though, because love him or hate him, he is one of the biggest names in the traffic exchange industry. Jon Olson’s interview is online, be sure to read it by clicking here.
