The best way to evaluate is registering with as many traffic exchanges as possible and keep a detailed database. This database should be regularly updated depending on response received. A graphical presentation will reveal the ups and downs. Now rate the traffic exchanges on the basis of more or less steady growth and you get your answer.

I use http://www.easyhits4u.com. I have been with them for years. Not only do they drive traffic to your site they pay really good and you can use the points/credits they give you for free advertisements. They do have others but I prefer the extra cash and the option to use this on advertisement or to my paypal account.

Don't underestimate the value of your time!! Surfing exchanges is a time suck, and isn't something that you should spend hours and hours doing. Do you have a job? How much do you make per hour? If you If they have a good paid program, it might be worth $7 to $10 a month for the ad credits you get.

While it is true that traffic exchanges are populated by people who are looking for advertising and views for THEIR site and may be mindlessly surfing and clicking without checking out SFI, there

I found that the best way is to try it for yourself,and once you have found one that you or two that you have been told work.
Don't overspend on one site,spread the load out until you are getting the results you want.
You can evaluate your results by using your Key codes and Hit tracking found in the POWER TOOLS dropdown list.

I got really good results from Linkbucks.com well worth the money spent

Best answer is Do Not Use! Traffic Exchanges are full of people viewing other people's pages that they are not interested in, i.e. they never look at anything they see, only just mindlessly surf for credits. So the fastest way to ZERO results is the traffic exchange programs. Better is to use text ads which have out performed all other advertising methods for years and years. Also use blogs, twitter, facebook posts, forum posts etc. If you spent the same time you waste on traffic exchanges on text

TrafficHoopla gives an approximate ranking to traffic exchanges so people can have an idea which sites have a greater presence. The more people using a site, the greater the numbers potentially looking at and maybe acting upon your ad. Another factor is how often you see SFI/TripleClicks ads. The lower the number, the greater the chance of people viewing it out of novelty.

When it comes to traffic exchanges, I, like many others, have found that it's through trial and error that will enable you to best "evaluate" traffic exchanges. And understand, it can be a 'long-term' evaluating process. Like already mentioned, it would be best to join as many traffic exchanges as possible to manage, and track the results you get from each one. One thing for sure, traffic exchanges can pay great dividends for your advertising campaigns, especially the 'truly' global

What is the best way to evaluate Traffic Exchanges for SFI use?

Traffic Exchanges should never be used to promote your SFI business. Traffic Exchanges are good for one thing and one thing only: building your list of contacts. The best advice is you cannot evaluate TE's for SFI use. You can only evaluate for list building use.

One of the biggest misconceptions about TE advertising is generate traffic to your program web site. This does not work. What works is promoting a tool

1. Is it cheap or free?

2. Does it deliver good results?
Best way to check if it does is to put keycodes in your affiliate URL to know which Traffic Exchange sites have a high sign-up ratio. Rank all traffic exchanges that you tested.

3. After ranking them all by sign-ups. Check the ratio between sign-ups and movers, its better to have one active sign-up than a hundred that just clutters up your genealogy without any activity. Test all sign-ups with a contest at your
