If you have been searching for a way to boost the amount of hits at your website then you are not alone. Many websites offer free exchanges where if you use their surf program they will drive traffic to your website. Unfortunately, the traffic driven to your website is useless. I have not tried all the web surf exchange programs, but the two programs (Trafficg.com and eternalhits.com) have given nothing more than automated hits.

As I did my nightly check at Google Analytics I saw that my surfing for Trafficg and eternal hits had brought roughly 100 hits for that day. I looked further into what was happening when those “people” entered my website. The statistics were less than exciting. For every hit coming from a free surf exchange, the average time spent on my website was 0 seconds and the bounce rate was 100%. The web hits were nothing more than fake bot hits.

My goal in writing this article is to alert people to be careful about what you are receiving when a website claims they will drive traffic to your site for free. I was duped into surfing trafficg and eternal hits, while they were providing me with no hits at all. Essentially, they were gaining free exposure for their own advertising, while providing nothing in return.

Luckily there are other ways to generate free web hits toward your site. Creating and submitting article content with your attached website link is a great way to gain exposure for your website. You can submit your articles to free articles directories where they will be posted for all to see. Search engines like Google will crawl and index your articles allowing them to gain maximum display. With keyword rich articles, people may even be able to see your submission at the top of Google search. As you submit articles the amount of links going into your home website will increase, which also helps your site gain power in the search engine rankings.

Other methods include blogging, where you can submit posts to let people know about product information and upcoming offers. Blogs are a great way to get information out quickly. Blog posts can be long or short, as there are no minimum word counts that sometimes accompany article submissions.
