I have used Link referral already. I have been impressed with the service and the kind of traffic they generate for our websites. The problem is I never used any of my Adsense websites. Adsense is simply too precious to be used in a traffic exchange program. We can join and promote our Websites which has affiliate links and ads of other PPC programs within Link referral. Even inside forums in Linkreferral we can see members advising people against using adsense sites there. So the best thing is not to risk with Adsense. Remember adsense has a zero tolerence policy.
I have recently joined linkreferral mainly due to this thread. I took someones advice and used squiddo to try and re-direct them to my site that has adsense. However I haven't had much luck getting the click throughs though. My question is how does adsense view this? The front page of my site does not contain any adsense ads. If I use my front page as a landing point on linkreferral and then they click to visit another page, does adsense see it as coming from linkreferral or do they only see it as an internal page? The site I'm referring to is my home winemaking site link below.
how about using another site redirect, when using those “traffic exchange†sites ? Just register an .info domain, subscribe at trafficswarm and all those traffic exchange programs with that .info domain. That .info domain just need to have an 301 redirect to your blog. And all that traffic to your blog will come for yourdomain.info , and that’s all. I didn’t test it yet, but i guess it has to work.
