Basic Advertising Methods | Article #12: AUTO SURFS

If you are a “MY SECRET PROGRAM” member (of course you are) then you grew up on traffic exchanges, or what I call “manual surfs” The reason I call them manual surfs is because in order to get from one site to the next, you have to actually view the site and click the next button when the timer reaches zero. This at least assures that people are actually viewing these sites.

But auto surfs are a whole different ballgame.

Auto surfs have actually been around a lot longer than most people realize. The reason for this is because when they first came out, back in the late 90s, they weren’t tied to these insane HYIP programs that seem to be popping up everyday. If you recall, I went over HYIPs in my complete money making guide article. So if you need a refresher, just refer back to that section.

Anyway, back in the 90s, the first auto surfs were relatively harmless surf bars that you installed on your PC and they ran a little ticker tape along the top or bottom of your PC screen. They provided incentive to do this by paying you for the number of hours that you had this thing running each day. My supervisor at work, who had his running everyday from 9 to 5 actually made about $30 by the end of the month. Not bad considering he had to be on the computer anyway.

The original concept and basic reason for these sites to do this was simple. Having these sites running on your PC made it so that MAYBE you might actually see one of the ads running across and be interested enough to check out the ad and maybe even buy something from the advertising site. Honestly, I don’t know if this concept worked or not. I know my supervisor never bought anything.

Over time, these sites began to get into bigger money. They started to combine auto surfs with HYIPs. In other words, you invested your money into the HYIP, which they disguised as “advertising expense” and every so many days or weeks, you got a return on that money. The returns started getting more and more insane. 12DailyPro was giving 12% every 12 days. They were eventually shut down.

Did anybody actually ever view these sites? Maybe. But I haven’t heard any great stories about auto surfs to personally recommend using them. If you do decide to give them a try, please stay away from the ones that require you to invest any money, because history DOES show that the majority of people who use auto surfs lose their investment.
