TraffUP launches the world's cheapest PPC Campaign

Being an SEO (and SMO) manager, I never ask my clients and friends to go for PPC Campaign. I personally believe that there are so many free, and effective, ways to bring free traffic on your websites.

And one such way is TraffUP. It is not just the most popular, and effective, website to bring genuine website traffic, but also helps you to grow your social network by bringing free twitter followers & retweets respectively.

But recently, this website has come up with one of the most attractive PPC Campaign I have ever heard of - i.e. 0.08 Cents (not dollars) per click. By purchasing $399 plan of traffup (details given below), you get a whopping 500000 points, which you can use to not just bring genuine website visitors on your website, but also helps you to get twitter followers and retweets. And with its Facebook and Youtube section on the way, these points would also help you to increase your facebook likes and youtube views.

Here's the details of all the plans of Traffup (in case if you want to go for paid promotions). However, I still maintain that by spending a few minutes on TraffUP everyday would help you to earn massive free traffic, twitter followers and free retweets on your website, and twitter account, respectively. But, if you don't have much time to spend on TraffUP, you can for sure purchase one of these attractive point plans:

Traffup launches world's cheapest PPC Campaign

On the other hand, the point plans of Twiends (its main rival) are much more than just expensive with its $299 plan providing you with just 20000 points (or credits or seeds). Plus, it just provides you with the option of free twitter followers (not genuine either) - that means you can't promote your website or get massive retweets with Twiends.

And that is the reason why TraffUP is so popular among the users. Traffup is NOT an automatic traffic exchange and takes strict provisions to reduce fake visitors, followers, and retweets. Thus, genuinely growing your overall Social Network. And, if you haven't joined TraffUP yet, join it now.

Traffup boost your website traffic: Brings free traffic to your website


traffup is much better than twiends to bring free traffic on your websiteThere are several ways of bringing traffic to your website. One of them is direct traffic (where people who knows about your website, views it directly). The other is traffic via search engines where people search for their respective keywords and if your site appears in their search result, they view it. And the most interesting among them is bringing free traffic to your website through referrals. You post your website link on your articles, on twitter, facebook or anywhere else. People interested in your article will also view the link and, if interested, will click the link resulting in bringing them to your website.

TWIENDS: NOT AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO INCREASE YOUR WEBSITE TRAFFIC

A lot of new ways of using referral links, to increase website traffic, are developing everyday. One such way is using websites like Traffup and Twiends. Twiends is not specifically related to website traffic, but it has a section dedicated to it. But traffup deals mainly in increasing website traffic by making sure that more and more people view your website. But a lot of questions have been raised about the effectiveness of these websites in not just increasing website traffic but about the relevance of that traffic in achieving our predetermined goals? I have personally received a lot of emails of people asking me about the use of traffup and twiends. Some of them were not happy with the way twiends was increasing their website traffic. No doubt, twiends results in increasing your website traffic, but it also increases the bounce rate as people don’t spend time on a particular website and quickly move onto the next website. The sole aim of the users, in case of twiends, is to earn as many credits as possible.
The main question which they had was if twiends was the right platform to effectively increase their website traffic? The answer is a big no. If you want to impress your family and friends but showing them how many hits you get on your website, then go for twiends. Else it’s a waste of time, as your purpose of making a website is not served.

TRAFFUP: INCREASE YOUR WEBSITE TRAFFIC IN STYLE


The solution to this problem is Traffup. This website is not just about increasing points by visiting a particular website, but it also acts as a showcase of websites. People visit traffup to view different types of websites of different categories. And by viewing the websites, they also get points which they can use in promoting their own website.
Points(Credits) in traffup are given per website visit. But if you are expecting to gain points by visiting the same website again and again, then you have to wait for atleast 1 hour to do so. When you visit a website, you get points for viewing it. Then you have to wait for 1 hour before clicking the same website link again (if you want to gain points). This helps a lot as your points are converted into meaningful hits.
Plus the biggest advantage in case of traffup is that the emphasis is given on promoting the website by showcasing it, rather than forcing people to gain points by visiting a website. You can visit a website of your choice, look for the information you want to get, and can still get points for visiting that website.
So yes, when you look at traffup, you do realise that the new and effective ways of bringing free traffic to the websites are developing, which serves the purpose of actually promoting your website among the your target audience.

Using traffup to increase website traffic and bring free traffic instantly

Websites are now a craze. Everybody, even a 10 year old kid, wants a blog or website in his name. We all want our websites to be visited by a lot of users. Big companies and firms run what we call "expensive marketing campaigns" to promote their brands. Small businesses and users depend on Google's extremely complex algorithm and wait for months for their web page to get organically listed on page 1 in search results.
For those who don't like to wait and want to see a lot of visitors on their website at NO COST, a new and very unique traffic generator is available just a click away. I am talking about TraffUP - your free website traffic generator. Traffup is the number one tool to bring free traffic to your website.
Simply add your website for free and click a few other websites listed there to increase traffic on your website.

Why I love TraffUP?
  1. TraffUP is extremely simple to use, even your Grandma can use it for her blog.
  2. It is absolutely free to use.
  3. It has a unique functionality that engages you the moment you sign up.
Don't trust me? See it for yourself. Sign up and bring more visitors to your website!

Website Promotion and bring free traffic to the websites with Traffup


Promote your website and Increase website traffic with traffupThe cliché “time is money” fits totally in the concept of promoting your website. The faster your website start bringing traffic on it, the faster you will start earning money through adsense or your online business. So not just promotion, but an effective and timely promotion of your website is absolutely necessary.
A lot of people do:
  1. SEO optimization
  2. Paid advertisements;
  3. Article Submissions;
  4. Website Promotion;
  5. Website Submissions; or
  6. All of the above
for just one purpose and that is to bring quality traffic on their website. By quality traffic, I mean bringing effective and relevant visitors to the website. Quality traffic should be your sole aim while promoting your website. Some programs or methods like tweinds and wiqwiki initiated the concept of boosting website traffic instantly at affordable prices. These programs did bring traffic on the websites but people visiting the websites were not even interested in looking at the contents of the websites. If you had asked the person visiting the websites about the name of the websites he visited, he would not have named even one of them. There was no use of such traffic, and thus these ideas flopped instantly.
However, a much improved and better concept is launched in the form of traffup which brings faster, better and muchreliable traffic on the websites.
All the above methods including traffup can be used to bring quality traffic to your website. Some of them are free and a few takes some money out of your pocket, and that is what you keep thinking all the time. You want to promote your website at the least possible cost. But the most important thing that each and every one of us doesn’t think is of the time we are taking to actually promote the website. The longer the time we take, the more revenue we are loosing everyday. Think of all the anticipated earnings which you would have earned had your site been promoted more effectively.
So, sometimes spending a bit on your website is not bad, especially if they bring great results. But that doesn’t mean that just paid advertisements can bring relevant traffic to your websites. There have been cases when even spending huge sums of money on website promotion hasn’t helped. Now you would be thinking what I am actually trying to say here? To go for the paid advertisement form or to go for the more organic way of increasing the traffic or just visit traffup and see the traffic grow on your website? What I am suggesting you is to go for all of these options together.
Let me tell you the options which you should go for in order to bring quality visitors to your website, quickly and effectively:

1. Free and quick ways of increasing your website traffic effectively:

I have already covered these topics on my hub named 7 best ways of increasing your website traffic. However I am going to write the main headings once again. These are as follows:
  • Article Submission
  • Signing up to Traffup.net
  • Website submission directories
  • SEO Optimization
  • Submitting your website on CSS Showcase websites like CSS Mania
  • Blog Comments.
  • Promoting your website on forums.
  • Promoting your website through twitter.
2. Paid form of increasing your website traffic:
One thing that you have to keep in mind while going for the paid form of increasing your website traffic is if the juice worth the squeeze? The following 3 are the best paid ways of increasing website traffic:
  • Google Adwords: Nothing can beat the reach of google adwords. However the prices are very high, but ofcourse they do bring quality traffic on your website.
  • Facebook Ads: Matching google step to step is facebook, whose reach is almost infinite. Nearly every person I know has an account on facebook. I am sure the same is the case with you. So giving your website ad on facebook will for sure bring more than expected traffic on your website
  • Traffup: Traffup, the current sensation of bringing free website traffic, is equally effective when it comes to its credit plans. The credit plans of traffup are economical, flexible and easy on your pockets. With each click 50-60 times cheaper than facebook and google, be sure to watch out for traffup.
I would not suggest you to go for just one option of increasing the website traffic. Rather you should increase your chances by choosing a perfect mix out of the above options to increase your website traffic. If they worked simultaneously they will boost your website traffic like anything. And even if any of the option didn’t bear result, we would have a back up plan. For eg. If optimizing your website and article submission is taking too long to bear any result, then your paid advertisement and traffup would be there to take care of your website’s traffic and vice versa.
But while promoting your website, do keep in mind that this is an age of competition. A slight delay in bringing your website in front of the people can cause you a lot of loss. The loss would not be apparent to you, as it would not be in the form of loosing your current money, but it would be in the form of loosing your anticipated profits and income. Trust me with a great website idea and an effective promotion campaign, you can take your website to new heights.
Good luck with your website and have a great day.

Traffup Vs. Tweinds: Which is the cheapest way to promote your social network?


In my previous article I had talked about whether it would be viable to compare Twiends and Traffup anymore. But now that traffup has ventured into the field of increasing twitter followers, it would be very fair to compare the credit plans of both these websites. 


Before comparing the plans:

The functionality of these two websites is somewhat similar with traffup having an edge over twiends. When we browse traffup things are seen as they are properly planned unlike twiends, where some areas are running in rough and right way. One of the prime reason for this can be the fact that twiends was in monopoly when traffup was launched. So traffup was developed and coded keeping in mind the competition factor and all the loopholes of twiends were removed in traffup.
Like the biggest loophole in the case of Twiends website section was not allowing the submission of frame breaking websites like squidoo. So if you had created your hub on hubpages and wanted to increase its traffic by submitting it on twiends, then you would have not been able to do that as these websites were prohibited by twiends. But that is not the case with Traffup. That’s why when you browse this website, use it, you feel a sense of security. There are no loopholes whatsoever, and the main reason for this could be the fact that they are taking things step by step. Right now they are concentrating just on their website section which deals in providing free website traffic. And the moment they will be sure about having no errors or loopholes in their functionality, they will consider about expanding their portfolio.
And that is the way it should be. Google, before diversifying into Gmail and other stuffs, strengthen its search engine capabilities. Before seeing the short tem gain, you must think about the long term loss. And that is what Twiends is realizing now.

Credit plans Comparison:

Ok.. Let me cut short the history of these two websites and come straight to comparing their credit plans. Both, twiends and traffup, have kept the option of purchasing points (now “sparks” in the case of twiends). Many people don’t have time to earn points by clicking the websites or following other people on twitter. So they take a short route of purchasing points in order to keep it easy. And that is fair enough too.
First I am putting forth the credit plans of Twiends:
  1. Twiends plans start from $6.95 where you will get 350 sparks (points).
  2. $19.95 will provide you 1050 sparks.
  3. $29.95 will provide you 1250 sparks.
  4. $99.95 will provide you 5000 sparks.
  5. And finally $279.95 will provide you 20000 sparks.
Wow, it’s good to see Twiends going on the way of google ads and facebook ads, if not on quality then atleast in terms of their pricing.
Anyhow, now let’s have a look at the credit plans of Traffup:
  1. Traffup plans start from $4.95 which will provide you 1000 points.
  2. $9.99 will provide you 2500 points.
  3. With $14.99, you can bring 5000 points home.
  4. $29.99 will provide you 15000 points.
  5. $49.99 will provide you 50000 points.
Well.. After going through both the plans, I don’t think there is any need to compare the plans anymore. They are pretty much clear and self explanatory.
Traffup only has these 5 plans, which I have mentioned above. But twiends have a lot of other plans and I have just included the main plans to represent all their credit plans. Having a lot of plans increases the flexibility but, at the same time, can be very confusing at the same time. Traffup has tried to keep it simple and, as you can see by yourself, very reasonable too.
The credit plans of Traffup are more than 5 times cheaper than those of Twiends. No experience can give Twiends the leverage to charge so much. This comparison, of Twiends plans with those of Traffup, somehow fades away the effect of Twiends and makes you notice this new revolution called Traffup.
The main reason of including a brief about the history and functionality of both these websites was to make sure that you can better analyze the credit plans of both these websites. Twiends looked good while charging so much when it was in monopoly. But with the entrance of Traffup, Twiends should have made its plans more competitive by offering more sparks (points). Tarffup is offering points at such low prices will only hamper the prospects of Twiends.Now that traffup is also present in the field of increasing twitter following,  things are going to be worse for Twiends. They should better be ready with something innovative and exciting.
I hope for that day to come soon as it will take the competition to a completely different level. It will be a head to head fight for survival. And the more fierce it will be, the more benefits we, as consumers, can expect out of it.
Till then, increase website traffic and get twitter followers, at free like cost with Traffup.

New Website Ideas: Worst website ideas of 2011 which you should not follow

You can be the world’s best website designer and can even program the most advanced website. But can they by themselves bring traffic to your website? No, they can’t. You need a small ingredient to make this dish much more  attractive and delicious. And that is – "a good idea".

I might sound like Leonardo di caprio, but an idea really decides the fate of a website. A good idea can take your website to the top, whereas a useless idea won’t do any help to your website. It will die for visitors and ultimately it will die one day.
So an idea has to be good enough to attract visitors. It should be good enough to make attractive marketing campaigns and most importantly it should be good enough to help the users in some way, so that they can use your website again and again. But this is not enough as you can see a lot of websites on a same subject, but only a few leading the pack. It depends upon the way the idea is presented and the way the website serves the users. The key factors in that are:
  1. How can your idea serve the needs of the people in the best possible manner?
  2. How can you relate it to the maximum number of people?
  3. How can you make it different and more attractive from the similar websites available in the market?
So it is not necessary to think of a new and different idea. You can alter the already existing idea, make it better and then launch it with maximum publicity (bookmarking, paid marketing, SEO, article submission etc.). But still there are some website ideas which are over saturated and have been extracted to its core. Here is a lost of the ideas which you shouldn’t go for in the present time:
  1. Social Networking Website: Facebook is tremendously popular. You cannot beat it at any cost, especially at this time. Either wait for the people to get bored with it, or think of an extremely different idea like Second Life (which will create you a niche audience). But don’t create a website similar to Facebook or Myspace thinking that luck will rain on you.
  2. Project Sharing Website: A website like Elance should not be created at this time as it will be a total waste of time. Unless you don’t know atleast 100 persons from both the sides who will be willing to be your members, don’t even dare to think about creating it. Trust me, it can prove to be your worst nightmare.
  3. A copy of any renowed website: If you are thinking of copying the idea of any renowed website, then stop thinking about it immediately. The first impression which you will get of the people would be that you are a copycat and that it is not your original idea. Unless you have something better to add in it, don’t trust your luck to much with these websites.
  4. After you have agreed on an idea of making a website, you have to make sure if you want a registration page on your website? If yes, then please make sure that you keep the registration form short and simple. Look at the registration page of Management Point(www.managementpoint.info). It takes only 30 seconds to register on Management Point. Some registration forms are so long that people don’t dare to even fill it. And yes, there is no need to put in the registration form, if you don’t need it at all.
  5. Don’t even think about creating a replica of Twiends and Traffup. These websites are awesome and their functioning is superb. Twiends and Traffup have already effectively exploited the idea of increasing twitter following and increasing website traffic. Honestly, there is nothing left to it now. Moreover they are already a rage among the users. So copying that idea would make you look more like a thief and less like a creative person. Instead of copying these websites, you should use your creative brain to think of a very innovative idea to serve the unsatisfied needs of the people.  The best you can do is to think of a new or different idea and then promote your website through Traffup or other social media marketing tools. And traffup can help you in that by bringing free traffic on your new website.
The above points are charted out after a lot of experience and deliberations. But if you still have confidence in any one of the above points, then I hope you would prove me wrong. On the other hand, if you want to think about a creative and innovative idea about a website than do one thing during the brainstorming: 

Think of the unsatisfied needs of the users online. It can be about a particular website or the needs in general. I am sure you will come up with a very innovative idea.

I will try to think about some creative and profitable website ideas. If I am successful in finding at least 5, I would for sure share them with all of you. So check out this space for more articles. Good luck.

How Traffup is better than Twiends to get twitter followers and bring free traffic to your website?


In my previous article I have talked a lot about  traffup’s capability to provide effective, useful and free traffic to your website. I also talked about the comparison between traffup and twiends website section. But with the lastest move of twiends to remove its website section, it would not be wise to compare both these website on the basis of their website section.

Traffup Vs. Twiends: Which is the better way to grow your social network?

Apparently, traffup is far better than twiends and now is the only option available to bring free traffic to your website. But, when we thought it would not be wise to compare these websites anymore (as twiends is related to twitter section and traffic with providing free traffic), traffup has introduced its twitter section which can be used by the users to get twitter followers, effectively and without any cost. Now, this is a serious blow to the twitter section of twiends, as people are about to get bored with its twitter section (thanks to its haywire rules & policies and a lot of loopholes).
Twiends have had its run, it was a craze among all of us(web masters) as tool bring free traffic to websites. We were very happy as we watched our website’s traffic growing day by day. We all moved out of the concept of free traffic in buying a lot of credits just to improve our website traffic. Purchasing credits here were cheaper than Google and Facebook Ads. So we all were having a go at it. Twiends earned a lot of money because of it.
But with passage of time, all the loopholes in Twiends became apparent. Especially, the loopholes in the website section of twiends. A person who used to place his website on twiends, used to get irrelevant and ineffective visitors on his website as people were just interested in earning free credits by viewing websites and were not actually interested in viewing the contents of the websites listed on twiends.
Then, Traffup was launched as a tool to bring free traffic to the website, both, instantly and effectively. I was skeptical before checking it out, as it was someone based on the same principle of twiends website section. But checking it out wouldn’t have cost me anything. So I went ahead with testing it, and I must say I was blown away by it. It was
  • Stronger
  • Better
  • Faster
  • and, most importantly, more useful than twiends.

Evolution of Traffup lead to the fall of Twiends website section?

And hence began my comparison between these two websites.I was planning to draft an article on the comparison between these two websites. But before I could write anything, I noticed twiends removing its website section from its website. I have my own reasons of why they would have removed it:
  1. Launch of Traffup can be considered as a set back for twiends, which was enjoying a monopoly earlier. People had to use Twiends to increase their website’s traffic. No matter, if they were happy with it or not. But the launch of traffup, gave them one more choice. Or should I say, a better choice to actually increase their website traffic, in a clean and effective way.
  2. Twiends website section had a lot of loop holes. I and a lot of other people complained to Davis about this. And may be a lot of other people too did the same. This would have created a lot of pressure on them to remove this section.
  3. Twiends is enjoying the success of its other two sections (Facebook and Twitter). They decided to give youtube section a chance. As the popularity of youtube could bring more people towards twiends then the website section. But with the launch of Traffup’s Twitter section, the competition in the area of getting free twitter followers have increased tremendously.
  4. Website section is a technical section, where users comprise of experienced web masters. Just showing them a jump in the figures won’t make them happy. They need everything right, from bounce rate to number of unique visitors. That was not the case with twitter and facebook section as people were happy with seeing an increase in their twitter and facebook page following. So that might have leaded them to remove this section for some time.
The exit of twiends and the success of traffup is a big evidence of the fact that Traffup had overpowered Twiends in that brief amount of time, when they both were competing with each other. And now that traffup has launced its twitter section (which is still in its test phase), the competition between traffup and twiends has again emerged.  Traffup is leaving no stones unturned to provide an effective way to provide free twitter followers.
And I have to say, despite less user base of traffup’s twitter section, it is the best way of actually inproving your twitter following. It asks a user while registering that why should any other user follow him/her? This is a very nice way to provide solution to the users who are confused about who to follow on twitter?
So, if you want to get quality twitter followers for your twitter account and to  increase your website traffic instantly and without any cost, then go for Traffup.
