Traffic exchange is a dead wood and you better avoid wasting time on the platform. There are many ways you can use to earn online than wasting your data. Traffic exchange platform will pay you peanuts even if they will pay at all.

Some advertising networks are openly stating that they will not pay anything for low traffic websites, So domain investors who have to pay domain renewal fees, are forced to use traffic exchanges for making some money.

Yeah, I’ve tried traffic exchanges before. They can bring some quick clicks, but honestly, the earnings are pretty small unless you’re playing the long game. I used sites like EasyHits4U, but it’s mostly about boosting traffic, not really making serious cash. Definitely don’t expect to quit your day job from it.

Most advertising networks are not paying anything for low traffic websites, so it is better to use the traffic exchanges and make a small amount from selling the traffic.

The problem involved with traffic exchange services is that they provide you with visits to only one page of your website. Every user will still load the same page, without doing any other operation on your website. This will affect the Bounce Rate's Google Analytics value badly, and it may lead you to get a lower ranking in Google SERPs. You can solve the problem by removing Google Analytics on your websites, but I think it would be much better to stop using traffic exchanges. Do traffic exchanges work? If your target is to get your website on the last page of Google search results the answer is yes: they work great!

There are some online publishers who do not care for google ranking, they are only interested in getting some conversions for their affiliate link, so manual exchanges are worth it.
