Tools to build your business

Hits Connect - Link tracking service. Special offer if you join through this link and forego the 30 day free trial you can save 30%. Partner option will now allow you to track each and every Ad Sense click and tell you which page the click came from. Tracking your links is a necessity. It will cost you money if you do not know where your click throughs are coming from. You can also use this in the traffic exchanges so you can tell which exchanges are worth your effort. Hits Connect offers a 30 day free trial but if you are willing to forego that you can save 30% for being a referral from here. They also offer a rotator that will allow you to track and split test your sales pages all the way through the sale.

Traffic exchanges - Traffic exchanges are an excellent source of free hits to your site. Please read the article on using them that is on this site. Click here for a listing of my preferred traffic exchanges.

Site Build It - is the only source I recommend if you want to build a niche site. Niche sites are one of the best ways to build an income online. Site Build It is an all inclusive program that will include absolutely everything you need to get a top rated site. It takes some effort and is not a quick income earner but can literally become your retirement income. I like to call niche sites my walk away income. My marketing programs require constant effort to keep them growing but a properly done niche site will earn you income with minimal continuing effort after your initial investment of time.

Traffic Co-ops
Co-ops allow you to get exposure over a large number of traffic exchanges and add additional hits to your sites without any effort and at a cheaper price than you could get if you tried to buy the equivalent traffic yourself.

Doctor Traffic - Jon Olson runs this one and has provided me with a large number of referrals over the past 2 years.

Rotator Blaze - Another long time webmaster, Robert Puddy, runs this one and though I have not used it as long it has definitely gotten sign ups for me. After all isn't that what you are looking for in your advertising.
