Tim Linden's StartXchange

StartXchange

Tim and his site are a force of traffic exchange nature. Startxchange has been around since 2001 and Is a Manual traffic exchange. But Tim’s blog is read by thousands weekly and he is an intricate part of Traffic Exchange culture. I have watches Tim for a couple of years now since I got in the business.

May I also say I think I am breaking him down slowly when Thumbvu opened Tim and I fought for the top spot for weeks day in and day out, one upping each other for that top spot on the first page.

So when Tim watched my small Ustream show about traffic exchanges (an idea I did get from HIM) I was very honored.

 Hey I wasn't in long (ok so I caught the wrap up at the end), but it's cool that you are streaming! Just wanted to give some feedback. You're really dark in the video because of the sun coming in from behind.. You should either have the sun shining on your face straight on or from the side to get better quality. If you're going to do video you want people to be able to see you ;-)
That's all I got for you! --

Advice from Paul Kinder at Traffic Splash

I sent out emails to a lot of the big players in the traffic exchange world. Paul Kinder has taken a some time to pass on some information to me. So I share it with you as well.

Thanks Paul

Hi James
Sure thing ....
well first thing to say is that I am full-time so I researched fully and networked with owners and surfers for months before taking on traffic-splash. That networking was crucial - I learnt loads but more importantly, I built relationships with people so we could work to build our businesses together.

Secondly, I invested in a really good script, design and heavy advertising spend.

Thirdly, I reinvested all profits in more advertising to keep building until I reached a stage where I could start withdrawing some cash for myself. I didn't withdraw a penny for the first nine months.

No real secrets there - except the big thing - the world really does revolve around who you know, not what you know. Get to know the right people and invest in your business and it will grow much faster.

That applies whatever size your business. Just link up with people around the same level as you. And work together to grow your businesses.

I strongly recommend joining this forum:
http://netmarketingforum.com/forum

That forum is the rock I built my biz upon. I literally read everything there and the knowledge and relationships built through there have been priceless.

I also read thru the archives at HEN to give me loads of insight into the industry and how things tick:

Oh and start networking with other owners who have exchanges just a little bigger than you - and work your way up. That way you all grow together - IF the others are determined enough too.

Hope you take advantage of the advice and make that forum as helpful as it was for me. Best of luck with your biz.

Happy Splashing!
Paul
