How is your surf going? Did you get your top traffic exchanges arranged? Good take your first ten best sites and set up two separate browser tabs, five sites each. Done? Great, oh title these surf1 and surf2. Now surf on these…….

Hehe, not! Would I do that to my faithful readers? Never.

Tabbed browsers have made multi-site surfing the only way to go. No, this is not a modern twist on auto-surfing, this is a true-to-the-word surf session. You just see more sites. Your obligations as a surfer are still intact and we’ll look at those later this week.

Avant, FireFox, Internet Explorer 7, Crazy and Netscape. I have used all these browsers. My “BofC” is FireFox and I will continue to use it unless Mozilla improves it .

Others may tell you to group your sites together to best use your time. Group them by the time you must view each page, figure the loading time of each page and calculate how to split the mess up. I say, set up five pages, see how it goes. Too hard, take a page off, Easy-Peasy, add another page.

To set up any tabbed browser, follow the instructions that every browser has. They really are the best way to learn. But in brief, to set up Firefox once you’ve downloaded it from www.Mozilla.com/firefox.

Open “Bookmarks”
Open “Organize Bookmarks”
Open “New Folder”
Name Folder (surf # …. surf1, surf2…)
Click “OK”
*Open the site you want to surf in your address bar
Login, if your site is as great as D2C(wink,wink), click the begin surf box when you login.
Once the surf opens, let the first page time down, open “Bookmarks”
Scroll down and hilite “bookmark this page”.
In the “ADD BOOKMARK” box, the site name will be filled in.
In “Create in:” Hilite and scroll down until you find your “surf#” file.
HiLite “surf#” file and click ok.
VOILA You’ve made your first tab.
This next part becomes repetitious but follow along and pretty soon you won’t have to do it again.
Close this site.*

Set up five different pages on your surf1. This is your learning set of surfsites. Wow, lots of SSSSSS’s. I found to aid my surfing I turn on my favorite music and listen. Soon, I’m surfing to the beat of my music, and developing my rhythm that works for me. You’ll find your best rhythm too and will build bigger tabs and get credits built up quickly and painlessly. Never fear your ability and let it (ability) flourish. You may not like sufing 10-12 pages at a time, I do. I don’t mind uploading time differences and usually find some little task to fill the empty seconds.

That’s it for today surfers, I really hope you set up a tabbed browser system and learn to manipulate your sites to your advantage. As you practice and move around your surfing experience will improve, you’ll find your best times, etc.etc.etc.

Look around your surftabs and see how combining the sites differently can and will improve your own personal bests. I’ve even been known to play poker the odd time I surf, yet, for the life of me cannot figure out surfing and chatting!

Tomorrow.. we talk $$ and yes, I know that was what I meant to do today. I am woman, watch me forget!

HI Once Again from sorta sunny, Winchester, Ontario, where the cows outnumber the surfers, as far as I can tell.

The surfing competition over at TrafficBunnies (and 15 of her closest pals) is Funished. Oops I do mean finished, lol. A draw was held today LIVE over at Affiliate Funnel to distribute all the prezzies. As soon as possible I will post a list here of the lucky surfdoggies.

So, we are looking at surfing today, as promised. I do apologize for the delay in this posting but I’ve been busy and busier as well as been picking over the information I’ve culled for this. You see, surfing is a conundrum folks, a multi-faceted area of what and why to say. I can honestly say I belong to well over 75 surfsites, some of every kind. I have received program upon method on how best to do it, how best to benefit, when the best time is to do it, blah, blah, blah. Hence my title, the Light Side of Surfing. I thought today I would show you the form I use to organize my surfing. We all have favorite sites , I won’t bore you with mine. This is just a method that helps me keep my surfs up! Now obviously showing this form will be a bit tricky. I’ve shrunk down a copy of my form and fit it in here. Using any combination of the parts will create a schedule that you must find easy to follow. Just expand the columns, plug in data pertinent to you and you’re off! If surfing becomes a chore, you’re just not doing it right.

Traffic Exchange : Name of Site you surf duhhhhhh

PW/ID: You will need these to sign in and if you’re like me, (even though I usually use the same on every site) the moment I need them is just after closing my page.

Joined: How will you remember your anniversary if you forget when you joined.

surf/referral urls: These are possibly the most important info you will need at your beacon call . Both equal they are what make it possible for you to surf, and as well why you surf. Most of us online are not fortunate enough to concentrate on one project at a time. By listing your ref and surf urls you can fill most blanks right away.

Two other important items to remember is the frequency you need to surf, and upgrade/downgrade information. The frequency refers to how often you have to drop by the exchange before the WM sends you a reminder. If it’s on the sheet, you won’t miss it will you?

I also add whether I have upgraded and when it renews. This is not so much for the value I receive from the upgrade but rather to save myself the embarrassment of missing a monthly instalment.

And so ends the light surf. You are really going to want to get organize, readers as this truly was the easy part. Look forward to Monday where our topic will be “Free Traffic, Can you really afford it?’ Or in the words of many proud, profound public speakers, “Free Traffic, Let My People GO!”

TTFN

There is one thing that we all can do to help support this great traffic exchange.
It is a simple request and it will help drive more folks to Dare2Click in the long run.
What I am asking you to do is set your homepage to Dare2Click so that every time you
open your browser, you will automatically be taken to Dare2Click’s startup page.
This is good for three reasons. The first reason is that it gives you easy access to our site.
You do not have to type in the address or you don’t even have to find Dare2Click in your
favorites. Our homepage is already there and you can immediately start surfing and collecting your prizes. You may want to check the box that says “Start surfing immediately after login” in order to go directly to the surfbar after login. The second reason for making Dare2Click your homepage is to increase the ranking of our site and in turn its popularity. You see every time you open your browser and our start page comes up, Alexa and other ranking sites takes notice of this and gives us a higher ranking, drawing more folks here to check out Dare2Click. That brings me to the third reason. Popularity means more traffic and more traffic means more sign ups for you to Dare2Click and more commissions from your sign ups. Now I know how we can get busy and forget to do things. Why don’t you set your homepage right now to Dare2Click and I would not be surprised to find us all getting more referrals soon.

URL to use is for your homepage:

Thank you for supporting our site!

I just opened a new site.

EasyFreeImageHost.com is an easy image hosting solution for everyone. Have you ever wanted to share a picture with a friend, or many friends, yet didn’t want to go through the trouble of creating an account at other image host providers, or resorting to something as inefficient as email? With this website, you can easily upload any image from your computer and share it with anyone in the world! The image is stored on the EasyFreeImageHost.com server indefinately.

After uploading an image, the website generates a link to your picture. Copy and paste this link anywhere you want, such as a chat client or message board. In fact, EasyFreeImageHost.com automatically generates the necessary bbcode ([img] [/img]). All you have to do is copy and paste, and the image is instantly viewable.

See: http://www.EasyFreeImageHost.com

A new traffic exchange was launched and I think you could take a look on it. After you signup you can get a list of several traffic exchanges that gives you 60 day trial PRO accounts.

Jeanenne, the owner, is doing a great work by contacting the TE owners to offer the deal. Good to all TE members!

A PRO member asked me why he, as a PRO member, earn 0.83 credits per page surfed instead 1 credit. Since this can be a question of other members, I will explaing here how the surf ratio is calculated in Dare2Click.

A PRO member get 1:1 surf ratio. It means he get 1 visit to each page surfed. So, why he get only 0.83 instead 1 credit?

Below is the answer I sent by email to one of our members. Read carefully in order to understand it:

Hello, Peter

You get 0.83 + 0.17 per page surfed.
Every 20 pages surfed you get a prize of 3.4 credits.
3.4 divided by 20 = 0.17
So, 0.17 + 0.83 = 1 credit per page surfed.

Regards
Celson

Same thing happens with Free members. The bonus credits od 0.17 per page surfed (3.4 divided by 20) are added o the 0.33 credits per page he gets. So, Free members win 0.5 credits per page surfed, that is 2:1 surf ratio.

As I told to Peter,

This is a way to make the members really surf in order to get credits. This way I can give you a better quality of traffic.

Ok, I hope you understand now.

Report sites that break our rules and earn 5 credits! If you see websites that are against our rules just report it by using the Report link at the surfbar. You earn some credits and all members win with a better place to surf!
