How this works
NWT Websites Traffic wants to provide as much aid and assistance to webmasters as
possible. This system is designed to help webmasters get traffic to
their sites in a simple, cost-effective way. This benefits the webmasters
in a couple ways:
- More traffic means potentially higher ratings on statistical sites, such
as Alexa and SiteRanking
- Higher statistical ratings mean potentially higher relevance on search
engines
- More traffic means more exposures and impressions are made of your site
and it's advertisements
- More traffic means better positioning at 'topsite' websites
- TopSites are just more categorical-specific versions of a statistical
ratings site
- More traffic means more potential customers coming through your website
One mistake that many Traffic Exchanges make is telling a webmaster that they
will be "flooded with targeted customers, ready to buy". That is not the
primary purpose of a Traffic Exchange.
The primary purpose of a Traffic Exchange is to generate traffic to the
website, period.
That being said, if your target audience is "webmasters working on promoting
their websites", then you will probably reach some potential customers.
But even then, do not expect high conversion rates. Webmaster surfers are
all in the same boat: they want more traffic, for higher ratings, for better
rankings, to get customers from the larger search engines.
General Concept
In a nutshell: You visit other websites through one of our viewer systems and
earn 'points'. Each point entitles one of your pages to be shown to
someone else. For those interested in tech-speak, we offer both Auto Surf
and Manual Surfing options.
You are a webmaster, and you want web-surfers to see your website, for all
the reasons listed above. NWT Websites Traffic will show your website to other users, at a
cost of 1 'point' each time your website is shown. So, as long as you have
'points' available, your site will be shown to our other NWT Websites Traffic users.
[In webmaster: We'll let you put your website on NWT auto pilot.
We want to be your total internet business solution.i>]
Points are gained in a couple different ways:
- When you first join NWT Websites Traffic, you are given some points
- You can choose to 'be a passenger', and surf other sites through one of
our display systems. For every site you visit, you will earn
points.
- We also sell points, with bulk-discounting available. i.e.: When you buy
more points, you pay less per point.
- You can display our referral page. Each display to a unique user on
a given day will earn some points.
- You can also refer other members. If someone signs up through your
referral page, you get points when they sign up, and a percentage of their point earnings when they are a passenger.
- If someone you referred purchases something or upgrades their membership,
you get some points from that, as well.
- We also now offer a Banner Exchange: Place a line of javascript on one or
more of your website's pages, and every time that page is viewed, you earn
between 0.1 and 0.15 points, depending on the size of banner you select.
Different earning and referral ratios are available to different 'levels' of
membership. For specifics on how many points are earned in different ways
at each level of membership, see our Membership
Levels page in the Pricing section.
Terminology used on NWT Websites Traffic:
We are using a webmaster skill level as a basis for
terminology
NWT Traffic - A website that is
dedicated to Traffic
Exchanging. It contains nwt web hubs and nwt groups, to carry nwt
members
between nwt shots, nwt site groups, and other nwt web hubs.
points - A
unit of
value. 1Point allows a member to show one
page they wish promoted 1
time.points may be earned through
viewing, referrals, or they may
be purchased.
NWT Shots - A page on a web site. This is
what the nwt member
views to earn points.
NWT Site Groups - A block of related nwt
shots that can be presented in a particular order to members. This
allows webmasters to create longer, more attractive, or more
meaningful messages to passengers. [Does anyone remember the old
'Burma Shave' signs?] This also has a nice side-effect, since it
will look to site-statistics systems as though each user is 'clicking
through'
multiple pages, creating longer visit times.
NWT Web Hub
- A connection between site-groups,
and between separate web hubs. This software provides the power to
move members around the internet.
NWT Traffic - The website is
the nwt web hub... it takes members on "treks" through various websites
in exchange for points.
NWT Member - A web surfer, using our
viewer to view sites like
yours in exchange forpoint s (or cash).
This is also the generic term
used for any membership level.
NWT Surfmaster - A high-volume passenger.
They get extra benefit by being a more-frequent passenger. This
bonus can add on to any membership level.
NWT Novice Webmaster - A monthly
membership fee allows the NWT Novice Webmaster to manage lots of Sites
(many pages to
display), and view faster and more profitably than
a NWT Member.
NWT Skilled Webmaster - A monthly
membership fee entitles the NWT Skilled Webmaster to travel on faster
hubs, and earn more points,points per
view. NWT Skilled Webmasters have an advantage over NWT
Novice Webmasters. Again, more sites, and faster views.
NWT Groups - A specifically
structured group of unique passengers, designed for extremely
high-volume
site requirements. This refers to a special type of surf system we
will be presenting in late 2007.
NWT Pro Webmaster - A monthly
membership fee entitles the NWT Pro Webmaster to manage more sites than
an NWT Skilled Webmaster. This is also the first level where
'site-groups' may be created, to provide
more persuasive advertising.
NWT Expert Webmaster- An option for those
in
extreme need of very heavy traffic. A monthly fee provides a station
NWT Expert Webmaster with extreme speed, and options for 'private nwt
groups' (priority in main
rotation within a yard). NWT Expert Webmaster have the most control
within the NWT Traffic site of any user outside of the websites owner,
and may create up to 5 site-groups.
NWT Turnkey Webmasters- A member of NWT
Traffic Network. NWT Turnkey Webmasters can run
their own copy of TrEx on their own site (their own website), bringing
in Members, Novice Webmasters, and turnkey Webmasters through their
site, expanding the
TrEx network. To learn more about the TrEx network, we have created
a section called all about the
network.
We envision NWT as the 'Webmaster Hub', shuttling 'NWT
Members' across 'tracks' to 'way-stations' and other 'yards' where
'member', 'novice', 'skilled', 'Pro', Expert levels' can all benefit.
