    Do traffic exchange sites like master clicks and traffic bunny do anything for your site really? Does it help PR? I've joined them both and used them but still dont get what they actuly do. Is it just to trick banner site and such into thinking you have high uniques so theyll add you to their database or somthing.

    I have never used any traffic exchange program, but I heard that they don't work well.

    If you are using a traffic exchange and have adsense on your site you will probably warned then banned
    unless you are using a splash page..

    The traffic exchange won't increase your PR. It has nothing to do with it.
    In my opinion traffic exchange is a waste of time. Traffic that is not targeted won't convert well.
    Focus on getting targeted traffic from the search engines instead. Much better!

    Traffic exchange is not advisable because it's not quality traffic.

    It's just the waste of time nothing else.
    Concentrate to get more back links with proper anchor,
    you will automatically get traffic towards to your website.

    No it will not help your site by increasing the pagerank value, but if it's from a related site it might help you get more targeted visitors to your site other wise it's useless.

    I don't see any use of using any traffic exchange program. I used few traffic exchange programs in past but was of no use

    And if you use such programs on a website that has adsense, you are asking Google to ban your Google adsense account

    I will put my two cents in:

    Traffic Exchanges are not good for anything. In fact they can harm your site. You are risking your Google account. You are inflating your stats with "fake" traffic. If you ever decide to sell your site and you say it gets something like 1000 uniques per day, but then when you show the source of the traffic anyone will see that the traffic is fake.

    You should concentrate upon building real traffic as traffic from the exchanges is worthless.
