The Top Secret Tip

To some, this isn’t so secret, but to the huge majority it is! The top secret tip is to create your own advertisements. You can call it whatever you want, but be unique and be you.

Case in point: One traffic exchange is being advertised by countless members on StartXchange. 171 of them are using the same advertisements provided by the exchange itself. 66 of them at this very moment have over 80,000 credits assigned to the same advertisement.

That’s great for the exchange, but it’s not great for YOU! The page being advertised does not contain your name, your photo, or any mention of you at all. You are doing a great job at branding the exchange, but there is nothing there to make someone join under you, rather than someone else.

Now take the members advertising the same website, but creating their own pages with their photo on it, explaining why they think you should join. It will be noticed more, and it will generate more signups than the other pages. So take the time to make your own ad, and in the end you’ll save countless more time surfing because you’ll be getting better results!

    Tim you have such great concept and great ideas to pass along. On both of these blogs you hit the nail on the head again.
    Yes we are siily creatures of habits and laziness in keeping the same names, passwords and etc.
    I think that if you keep a log (an actual journal) not in your computer you can have as many different names an passwords to your hearts desire. It is written down for your eyes only. and yes its a lot of work but well worth loosing all.
    The same with advertising, they say copy me its all doable, well I agree with you that you need to be different than the rest, why be a follower, when you can be a leader??
    Thanks again for your insight, for a young man you are very intelligent.

  2. Tim,

    Super Tip. Perhaps I could start a service for creating personal landing pages for members. LOL! Maybe you can do that. Your tip begets an idea. Honestly, great tip.
