It's Traffic Captain, but not as we know it... by Stephen Skyvington-Diplock

For those of you who are involved with programs that do not allow methods that artificially generates clicks or impressions. It can be hard to find a way of generating traffic that can be considered to be REAL TRAFFIC.

Traffic methods that include repeated manual clicks or impressions, incentives to click or to generate impressions that use traffic robots, automated click and some impression generation tools will cause you problems. Even third-party services that generate clicks or page impressions such as paid-to-click, paid-to-surf, autosurf, and click-exchange programmes can be considered invalid traffic or even fraudulent clicks.

The problem is that any of the above will be generated via a traffic program, the source of which can be traced to that program and then classified as above.

After searching through many methods there would appear to be only two ways that I have found that can guarantee valid and legal clicks that provide real traffic.

The first method is via context sensitive advertising which is keyword rich and will get you found in the search engines, this in itself generates traffic directly from the IP address of a computer somewhere in the world and is not tied to any traffic generation program. Therefore a real valid visitor.

The second method is by employing the use of peer to peer traffic generation. Right! I hear some of you say what is that?

Peer to Peer – A way of communicating via hardware or software with a specific person(s) with the same means of communication.
(note: for those techie’s who are reading this, simplistic I know, but I didn’t want to get into client/server or layers)

In the instance of traffic generation it is normally accomplished by installing software on your system. This is also installed on all other systems within the peer group. When you view another’s web site via the software he is hit by an IP address of a computer somewhere in the world and is not tied to any traffic generation program. Therefore a real valid visitor.

My first experience of such a system was called “FlowKing” which was working well and was free to use, but suddenly disappeared as quickly as it appeared. It wasn’t until it ceased to function that I realise how much I relied on it for traffic. Since then I have been looking for a replacement.

I have now found it and I have been testing it for the last couple of weeks. Its called Millionaire Dollar Traffic otherwise known as MDT, do not be fooled by the name. It had been around since 2004 and was devised by Bryen Winters and Jerome Chapman. Oh and that all important other fact. It’s free…….
