Could someone give me a run down on the ins and outs of trades?
 

OK my hobby sites getting enough traffic that I think I could start trading...

so..
whats the minimum traffic level a sie needs to trade?
How do trades work in general?
How is it tracked? Inhouse or commercial software?

anything else a newb should know...

thanks you rule

Start out with a free trade script like AT3 (http://www.arrowscripts.com). The script tracks all the trades, feeds the most productive ones, and provides detailed stats. It'll skim a little of your traffic, but it'll give you the opportunity to get your feet wet before you shell out cash for the real deal.

Once you've got the script installed, set up some trades and see how it goes. You might need to buy some traffic to feed your trades initially. If you decide to buy traffic, I recommend TrafficHolder. You can buy traffic by niche (creampie), by geo-location, or by domain, and they filter out all the garbage traffic. You can also choose which domains to buy traffic from... or which domains to exclude. It couldn't be easier. You can stop, start, or tinker with your order at any time through a simple control panel. Plus their prices are very reasonable. :thumbsup

No one trades with more people than me.

True Joe Trades with most.

The question I would have, is WHY???

Send that traffic some place to get you paid.

Need ideas, ICQ me.

Oh, I do. I've started a site I'm using my own traffic to build.... uglysob.com.
