Traffic Soldiers Traffic Soldiers has over 15,000 Active Members
SURFING EXPERIENCE
With military precision the Traffic Soldiers surf browser churns relentlessly on dispelling any suggestion that a three framed browser script is slower than its two framed counterpart.
With a 15,000+ active membership there's no denying the potential visibility gained using Traffic Soldiers as a promotional platform of choice for many. Pages load quickly with minimal delays to the timer frame hence we were able to achieve a commendable best of 74 pages surfed during the 15 minutes test sessions. To date, over a six months period, we have only experienced a single site actually able to achieve its Theoretical Page Surf Capability (TPSC) - Blue Surf. Whilst time measured losses are small they do impact on the surfing experience to both the surfer and advertiser. In practical terms it is possible for Traffic Exchanges to improve their surf browsers as shown by both Blue Surf and The Cinnamon Hollow simply by adopting some small tweaks. The potential for increases in the number of pages surfed should be sufficient to motivate the majority of TE owners.
Casualties whilst surfing at Traffic Soldiers were most certainly related to the single banner ads that often failed to materialise. The text ads did not share the same fate however they do not stand out sufficiently to draw attention - take a look at GLADIATOR HITS to see how this can be resolved.
Banned Sites
Extremely useful feature that allows surfers to identify sites that do not act in accord with some basic networking protocols.
The fact people are out there trying to create and develop an online income is one thing - trying to do so by cheating in a way that interferes with many others another. Eventually the Internet Community will develop stronger operating principles that everyone will have to adhere, in the meantime, Traffic Exchanges such as Traffic Soldiers carry the weighty task of policing its own borders.
Hopefully a generic list of banned sites will one day soon become standard among the TEs and then we will all be able to enjoy TEs in the way envisaged by their creators, without irritating, unwanted promotions that do little other than mar the efforts of hardworking individuals.
Summary
To imagine that a 'good' Traffic Exchange cannot be improved upon would certainly be a mistake when it has to compete in a very fluid environment. Around since 2004 Traffic Soldiers is a 'vet' in the truest sense of the word however the competition is fast developing especially those with strong themes and in order to maintain its position as a promotional platform leader it is impossible not to feel a need for the site to undergo some artistic development that highlights its chosen theme. View Rockin' Clix as a recent example of how to build on this area.
Reviewing Traffic Exchanges (TE) today is no longer simply visiting a site that mirrors its competitors and therefore offers nothing new. If an owner is serious about making their TE work it shows. Visiting some TEs is like visiting a 'ghost town' whilst those being worked on give off a buzz that is unmistakeable. Traffic Soldiers possesses a very 'active buzz'
