Did You Know...
Blue-Surf has an "Average Surf" bonus, where if you surf more than the average amount of pages surfed by members the previous day, you get a credit bonus!

Yet another event designed to give out free referrals, Traffic-Splash and eTraffic Freedom are hosting Splash for Freedom. If you surf at 100 pages at both traffic exchanges, you will be entered in a chance to win free referrals at either exchange.

eTraffic Freedom has experienced excellent growth and user activity since its relaunch. eTraffic Freedom is still rotating 32 prize pages for its relaunch (including cash!), so be sure to look for those as you surf.

Michael Coursey is running a special double header event with both of his traffic exchanges, Major League Hits and Help Hits! There are a few bonuses going out this weekend.

First, if you surf 250 pages at both exchanges (not just one) over the weekend, you will be eligible to win a free referral. Please note that it is 250 pages from Saturday and Sunday, so you don’t have to do all the surfing in one day. There will be 10 referrals given way, 5 at each exchange.

At Help Hits, the text and banner exchange rates have been increased for the weekend, so take advantage and convert some of those credits to text and banners.

Finally, if you would like to surf even more, you can be eligible to win a free upgrade. To qualify for the prize, you must surf 500 pages at both Major League Hits and Help Hits. There will be 2 upgrades awarded, one at each exchange.

HitWar has a few announcements today.

First, the surf ratio for free members has been changed from 2:1 to 3:2.

A surfing contest just started today and ends on January, 26th at 5:00 AM EST. The top 5 surfers for the week will win 5 active referrals each!

Plus, today bonus credits are doubled.

With all of these changes, this is a great time to be surfing at HitWar despite its difficulties with its prior referral contest.

Jan 18

Well it’s Friday again, which means it is Fast Flipper Friday at Traffic-Splash and Fast Easy Traffic!

Surf 100 pages at both exchanges, and you will be entered to win a free referral! There will be 10 winners in all, 5 from each exchange. Time to get surfing!

Traffic-Splash is offering double bonus credits for surfing today, so head out there to surf. If that is not encouragement enough, try looking at these statistics cited in their latest e-mail:

We have over 16,000 members already!
In 2008 you’ve surfed over 100,000 pages every single day.
You are getting over 77% unique hits on your ads.
Over 2,000 sites are seen every single day.
Sites rotating 24/7 are now consistently receiving ….
150-200 hits a day (my target is 120-180)
Over 3,000 members have surfed in the last week alone.
Over 100 are often surfing at any time.

Those are some great numbers, especially considering that it was not very long ago that Traffic-Splash was at 13,000 members.

In case you missed Fast Flipper Friday, where every member who surfs 100 pages at both Fast Easy Traffic and Traffic-Splash gets a chance to win a free referral, Paul Kinder says to expect Fast Flipper Friday to happen again soon!

On Saturday, January 5th and Monday, January 7th, RealHitz4u is giving out a few bonuses. If you are one of the top 25 surfers for one those days, you will get double the usual bonus given out.

Also, for the entire month of January, every Friday one person will be randomly chosen from the top 50 referrals list and given 250 credits! This is great for those actively promoting, but isn’t the top referrer.

Today StartXchange makes a lot of significant announcements!

First, there is a new prize page where you can now win credits, banner impressions, upgrades (For Free Members), and referrals (For Upgraded Members)! That truly is an amazing bonus for being active and paying attention while you surf.

The StartXchange marathon time will also be extended to allow more participation. It seems many people are unable to participate in the event during this holiday season. Oh, and owner Tim Linden has also sweetened the prize with 1 Year of Free Web Hosting and a Domain Name!

StartXchange has built its community foundation around the concept of teams. Personally, I never bothered to join one because the prizes rewarded people who surfed the most, referred the most, etc, but my schedule just doesn’t allow me the time to do those things and win extra prizes. This has changed now, because the surfing contest is replaced by a loyalty contest! When members of a team sign surf 20 pages in a day, your team earns a point for that surfer’s efforts. Now the average person with limited time (Like me!) can still participate for great prizes every week!

StartXchange used to allow members to sell credits earned, such as from surfing and referring. However the Terms of Service will change this new year, and if you are selling your traffic in any form, such as a Co-op, the majority of the traffic sold must be from purchased credits.

I know this is a lot of information to digest, but it is all very significant and there are a few more things you should read. You can find the full details at the StartXchange Newsletter Section:

http://www.startxchange.com/newsletter/

Remember if you are already a member of StartXchange, claim those activity points at the bottom too! If you are not a member yet, joining should be on your priority list, due to the high activity levels, large member base, traffic flow, and constant enhancements.
