Apsense Business Traffic Exchange - What's a website without traffic?

My apologies group:
Should have introduced myself first
Hi everyone, Dale here, Stacey's husband. Looking for ideas to better market our site and product, all I have right now is tenacious persistence. Most of my efforts to date have had dismal results so any ideas are most welcome

New to the site and stumbling around, seems like there may be a tremendous amount of info here. Tends to be a little intimidating but this group seems to have the most useful information so far, are most of these groups current? I'm seeing a lot of post dates 2-3 years old

Free Traffic! Need We Say More.

Hello Community,

I have taken the time to activate some of the promising tools in this community. The widget is one of my favorite tools.

Gettin' Better by the Tic' Toc;

I like the Traffic Exchange here. I was contacted by a woman from Microsoft who coordinates a womens entrepreneurial venture convention of some sort and we have begun emailing info. She contacted me thru my ABC here at APSense!

that was a surprise.

I get contacts every now and then

as I was skimming thru the responses I thought I saw something about scrapping? ABC or the TE way of doing things? I definitely hope not

I am trying to reach 1,000 views and keep it above that for good luck!

A proper evaluation of ABC is being done and the right one be rewarded, so that they put more genuine effort. also in this way the site could attract some quality member and encourage them to contribute more and more.

I know that people don't want to give a low score but ABC's that are blank should not be rewarded at all. Many people put a lot of thought and effort into their ABC's but do not get seen because of all the empty ABC's simply taking up space. Like you I feel that they would do something with it if they cared.

I think it is a shame that many who have great ABC's cannot get the exposure they deserve.

Hi Cheryl,

I am pleased to see you have the courage to give them a 1 if they have not done anything.

There are many that are of the mind that if they give a BC a 1 it will hurt the member.

It is my opinion that if the member cared they would have made some effort and done something with their BC



I also rate 1 if there is no content and I wish others would do the same.

Not the ABC's themselves but the exchange. People are rating ABC with nothing on them high enough that they can reach a 4+ Then the ABC's that people have put a lot of work in are getting 5-6 ratings, there's something seriously wrong here.

Also the fact that many great ABC's cannot be rated because they don't come up. I'm all for being fair to everyone but this just isn't working. I personally put a lot of 1's out there only because I cannot give a 0. If there is no effort put into the AB

Overhaul, don't scrap it, the ones that are complete, are really good.

I just spent a little time browsing through the business exchanges and for the life of me I can't understand how totally blank ABC's are boasting ratings of 4+. Also annoying is the fact that unavailable pages are coming up to be rated. We really do need a way to rate these things by going to them directly. I've seen great ABC's but cannot give them the ratings they deserve.

At this point the Biz Exchange either needs a major overhaul or to be totally scrapped.

Did things pick up a bit on the Exchange, or is it wishful thinking?

Hi richwinnerz

To view messages sent go to messages then click on the sent messages tab

If someone replied to my message, where can I view my message that I sent as you cannot always remember what you said.

I would very much like to see the option of voting for a specific Biz site without having to surf them all. I have been looking out for some which impress me a lot - but they never seem to come up - ergo - I cannot vote for them and others come up constantly, including some I would prefer to pass on - rather than give a bad vote.

Over to Official Suggestions again?

The greatest value that I can see for the Biz Centres is their search engine friendliness for people OUTSIDE ApSense

I have had two views at mine since I started. Not that my Business Center is much to look at, but anyway.

If the few of us are looking at hundreds of pages, getting credits for no use, why should we keep doing it? The interest will eventually fade, as always when something is not working properly.

I think there is a problem here, hopefully to be solved.

From my perspective, something must change with AdSense Business Center Traffic Exchange. We all have a lot of credits unused and I suggest that there should be a somekind of activity to spend/change/sell this credits.
I suggest once (and I still mean the same) that the role of Apsense traffic exchange should be the same (or improved) as the role of classic traffic exchange sites For your credits you should get views from other members.

Perhaps time to look at accountability again Bj. You BC has always been an 8 from me.

I have over 700 Credits and going up. I get about one vote every 3 or 4 days so the'll last me a while ;o)

D'OH! I forgot to thank you, Bill, for answering my inquiry here. *grins*

Oh wow, Bill! I'm so sorry people are treating your hard work in that manner. I'm taking a peek at your BC right now and if I saw it in the exchange, I would easily rate it a 9 or 10. Definitely doesn't warrant a rating below a 7 on a bad day.

I guess everyone has their own idea of what is good or bad in their eyes. *shrugs*
