Welcome to the newest issue of the Hit Exchange News and this week's 'One To Click On by Jon'.
Wow, what a week it's been! The hit exchange industry has been very active these past 7 days, from new features being launched in some of the bigger exchanges, to brand new programs "on the horizon". Most importantly, one of the oldest exchanges online (arguably the most active) has done a complete 180 with their customer support and should now not only improve it's service to their members, but this looks GREAT on the entire industry as well.
I'm really excited about all that's happened over the past few days, including the re-launch of my own Co-Op. The H.E.N. Co-Op has been the longest serving traffic co-op that deals with hit exchanges, I've had the pleasure of serving over 2 million hits to all the members of the co-op so I figured it was time for a face lift! I renamed the co-op DoctorTraffic.net and the response has been great! Have a look at the new design and get ready for new features being added constantly over the next few months!
Again, this e-zine is for you. Whether you are a reader, a surfer, an owner or one of each, Hit Exchange News is for you. I try to make this e-zine as interesting as I can, but sometimes I need your help. This week, I've added a new interview and promise to add more of these in the upcoming issues. I really enjoy reading what other professionals think about their program and their outlook on the industry. This is just one feature I think brings involvement into H.E.N. but I would like to add even more.
H.E.N. is for you, so please if you have any questions, comments, suggestions or things you would like see discussed, I encourage you to drop me a line. Send me an e-mail and tell me what YOU want in this e-zine. What you like, what you don't like. What features you look forward to, and which ones you skip!
Thank you so much for being a subscriber and I hope you enjoy this issue! I look forward to hearing from you!
Jon =)

- What's next? Google? Yahoo? The world? Yes, the guys at Webmaster Quest are at it again. If you did not recieve their update, believe or not, they have released their very own 'Toolbar' for download. You know, the same ones that Yahoo uses to stop pop ups and navigate the web? Yup, the first ever 'hit exchange' pop up killer created BY a hit exchange. LOL, I love it! Keep those features coming guys!
- Thank you, thank you, thank you! Hit Pulse not only have they improved their campaign feature, but the support administrator showed up and Net Marketing Forum and introduced himself to the forum members. You see, Hit Pulse and I have had some 'issues' concerning customer support in the past and I've made it known that I was not happy with the service I received. Wow, what an improvement as support requests have now been answered within an hour! I'm thankful because HitPulse is a BIG exchange. I am crossing my fingers that they continue to improve their program for their members and the industry as a whole!
- Speeking of HitPulse, have you noticed a site that has been popping up recently in their system? Hit Pulse is about to launch a brand new hit exchange called the Traffic Syndicate 25. Apparently this exchange will keep members active and will generate very healthy downlines for everyone invovled. Their 'official' launch date is not until August 1st, but you can register for the program next Thursday. Look for more info in next week's HEN!
- Hit Snapper is about to re-launch their website and get rid of the old script that has plagued it for almost a year now. Hit Snapper was once one of the most active exchanges online and hopefully with their new script, hits can begin to flow again! Good luck guys!

This week's results are based on traffic statistics (unqiue hits, page views, hits remaining, hits delivered) and if the exchange delivered results (sign ups). The industry changes just like in the real world, so an exchange may not be on the list this week, but will be number 1 next week! Discuss this week's Top 10 list in the Net Marketing Forum!
Enjoy this week's list!

| H.E.N. Interview with James Grandstaff |
|
My LSN Club is one of the more successful 'hubs' online. The focus of this program remains to build solid downlines by using hit exchange promotion and advertising. James Grandstaff has been invovled with hit exchanges for many years now, and has quite an impressive resume. What sets James apart from other hubs is his use of the 'doorway / splash' page. His members use a quick loading, and eye catching website when they promote in the exchanges, and if you've ever seen 'Build Your List with Surf-4-Hits', you know what I'm talking about...
Those who don't know Mr. Grandstaff or his websites, click in your favorite hit exchange for 5 minutes, you'll see one of his sites. And he's got a few words to say about the industry, check them out on the link below!

| Program Review - Hit Racers |
|
It's amazing what a redesign can do to your program!
Hit Racers has been online for a while now. It's not one of the older exchanges, but it's not that new either. It's gone through some trials and now has a fresh new look and an LJscript backing it up.
Hit Racers looks good. When you first see the site you are impressed by it's simplicity and also it's easy to read format. This continues within the members area where familiar features can be found, including banner ads, contests, text ads, and upgrade options. What sets Hit Racers apart from other hit exchanges? You need to surf 100 sites before your site is shown.
Yes, to be an 'active' member of this exchange you need to surf a minimum of 100 sites. This may seem like a lot, but think about the benefit to this. That's 100 sites, coming out of the system, this is what I like to call traffic flow.
A great new look and a familiar script should make Hit Racers a good bet in the industry, enjoy the ride!
% Unique Traffic: 69
Results: 3.0 out of 5.0
Traffic Flow (Speed of Delivery): Average
Site Design: 4.5 out of 5.0

| Things That Make You Go...Hmmm? (A 'Different' Look at the Industry!) |
|
- LOL Give your clicking finger a 'test' to see how quick is YOUR click? Clicking Finger Test! Hmmm....
- So a guy creates a website claiming Hit Harvester has never paid him, even though he's requested cash from them many times. Some 'harsh' words are used and presto, Hit Harvester has paid the guy (You should have seen this site before July 6th). Strong arm tactics, or a legitimate concern? Hmmm...
- I joined a new exchange called Matrix Hits. Not only was it too confusing to surf, when I went to assign credits, my URLs has disappeared? Next! Hmmm...

| New Exchange of the Week - First Place Traffic |
|
Another LJScript, but another good looking exchange nonetheless.
Let's just admit it, these scripts really work. Not only do they deliver the traffic they promise, there has been some amazing new hit exchanges come from the new king of commerical scripts.
First Place Traffic is a brand new program, it actually only had about 40 members when I wrote this. This program has a good looking design, and of course, the script is rock solid. They give you 5 bucks to join and apparently you can earn cash by surfing. Who cares about the 5 bucks, the traffic is what comes in first place here!
