1) Become a Student of Trafficology

=============================

I still get excited when I come across a really clever new idea - especially when it makes me go "that is SO obvious".

The Trafficology newsletter is like that. It's run by Wayne Yeager, and I think he decribes it best:

"I realized from Day 1 that web success was mostly about traffic. But I was tired of trying the same old stuff that everyone else was using: newsgroups, sig files, FFA links, search engine submission, banner exchanges... you know the routine... and I decided that there must be a better way."

"I also realized that people don't give away something for nothing. (That's why you'll rarely see genuinely useful, cutting-edge traffic tips on any other internet-marketing sites.) So I use good old-fashioned bribery!"

... and it works like a charm!

Every month, thousands of people send Wayne their best traffic-generating tips and secrets. Why? Because he gives away $1000 prizes for the best.

And then he publishes these "best of breed" tips in his FREE newsletter! It results in a real results-focused newsletter that is refreshingly different from the rest.

Brilliant!

There are 3 ways you can win:

:) Get more traffic by implementing the tips.
:) Submit a tip that wins a prize.
:) Refer a subscriber who supplies a winning tip (yes - you get a prize for that too).

2) StartBlaze Update

=============================

Last issue, I included details of the StartBlaze traffic generation system:

http://www.practicalselling.com/pdcb/0000/to.cgi?blaze

Since then, it's been going from strength to strength - and now they are in the "prize" game too!

If you refer 10 other StartBlaze members (again, it's free) before June 29, they'll send an extra 10,000 hits to your site.

And for the people who refer the most new members, prizes of up to 1,000,000 - yes, 1 Million - hits.

Everyone you know who has a website is a potential StartBlaze member, so it's worth thinking how you could refer 10 members. (And before you ask - yes, I'm a member and yes, I have already referred 10 members =:>)

In case you forgot - StartBlaze works by showing other sites as your startup browser page. I continue to get a kick out of this "random" feature - never knowing what will be there when I fire up another browser window.
