| Today I want to talk about two ways of getting traffic. Both are great fun! This comes as a surprise because most of the traffic tips that I have shared lately have seemed to involve cash, and neither of these do, hurrah!
The first one is a traffic exchange, and this was recommended to me by Kotobot.com, Jim Gallagher. Truly a person who knows what he is talking about with over 5,000 visits to his blog! Marvellous.
Anyway, it’s called Blogclicker and its fun. Jim says he gets around 100 people a day for doing ten minutes looking at other peoples blogs. Well, I have had a go and I think it’s great fun looking at blogs, I was planning on just doing ten minutes or so when I glanced at the clock half an hour had gone by! I thoroughly recommend this one, for the sheer fun factor. I am not so keen when I don’t understand the language of the blog – but nearly always they are in English, so that’s good.
The second one I want to tell you about is www.icerocket.com. It is a site that lists blogs, and it shows the latest blog posts. You put in the keywords that you want to highlight or read about, say affiliate marketing or list building, and it will show you all the latest blog posts that use those keywords. This is good fun also, and you can learn some interesting stuff. For instance I found a blog that has a list of all the traffic exchanges that the person recommended.
I plan on having a look at them and if I feel its a good deal or good idea I will let you know, of course.
I nearly forgot my lady of the day, here she is.
I hope you all had a wonderful first day of 2009, I certainly did.
Best wishes,
Ruth

Wow Ruth,
Love your site, great information and thanks for the Ping, I have just done it to my website.
Ok I have managed to get into your blog, I must have done something wrong I just could not see it, (most frustrating I must say) I am glad I have been able to get in.
So thanks again for your great information.
Best Regards

Hi Ruth,
Your strap line is about your learning curves, and now you’re giving us ladies’ curves every day. I might just call you Curvy Ruth, but please promise not to send me round the bend. I love your content so far, so it seems like you will help keep me on the straight and narow. Many thanks for a great blog.
I’m on my turbo hopping mission to get round as many of the F500 that I can. It’s taking me for ever to get round everyone just to say hi, so I don’t want you to think I’m being rude bringing a standard message.
I hope I do not offend you as communication and generosity are what is driving this. If I wait for you to come to me, it might never happen. Thanks to all who have already visited Planet Valz, including you Ruth.
Firstly, my wishes to you for a Happy, Healthy and very Prosperous Year 2009.
Secondly, I want to give you a New Year present, but you need to go to http://daybydaymarketing.com/2008/12/choose-your-new-year-present/
and choose what you would like.
I would appreciate being added to your blogroll if I am not already on it. You are on mine.

Hi Ruth,
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I’ve returned the compliment.
Interesting post, I paid Jim’s blog a visit, he’s doing really well.
Thanks for sharing.
Oh yes, one of the comments on Jims blog, by Stephen Bray suggested Google blog search http://blogsearch.google.com/ might be worth a look.
I hope you have a Happy and Prosperous New Year.
