Tornado Traffic Has Games

Word Search Game

First we have the Word Search Game that is common to almost all LFMTE traffic exchanges. As you surf you find letters until you finish the word or phrase, then you win a prize. Your progress is displayed in the lower right corner of the surf screen.

Viral Traffic Games

This is my favorite TE game. You have a character that can collect items and do battle with other players to win prizes. VTG also has weekly contests. The best part is every time you play the game you will win credits, banners or text ads at the TE where you are playing. To play just click the icon that appears in the surf bar.

VTG also offers advertising that displays at more that 380 TE’s and mailers.

The Food Game

This is a fun game you can play while surfing at Tornado Traffic or your other favorite traffic exchanges. The game is to cook dishes with the ingredients you have collected while surfing. There are a total of over 120 recipes you can learn how to cook. When you cook a recipe, you will earn points. The people with the most points at the end of the week will earn a Prize. The Food Game icon will appear in the surf bar every 25 pages surfed.

Lost in Ad Spaces Helmet Passes

This is our newest game. Every 20 pages the Helmet Pass icon will appear in the surf bar. Click on the icon to open the game page and win your pass. The more Helmet Passes you collect during the week the bigger your chances to walk away with 1 of 20 cash prizes. To qualify for the weekly cash prizes you must surf a minimum of 100 page at Lost in Ad Spaces.

Remember My Site

This game will come up occasionally while surfing, and ask you to select the previous site that was shown. If you answer correctly, you will win a prize.

You can add your own site to this game for just $1.99 for 30 days. Click on the Ads button at the top of your members area. Then click on Memory Sites and a Date on the calendar to open the sales page.

Click Track Profit is “Awesome Sauce”!

Hello Fellow Marketers,

You may have heard of Click Track Profit (CTP) in the past but CTP went through a huge makeover a couple of years ago. They have also shifted their focus to list building and crypto currency.

It has been around since 2011, but in 2019 CTP received a complete makeover and it is awesome. Or as the co-owner Jon Olson likes to say “Awesome Sauce”.

If you are a member and have not logged in for a while, you owe it to yourself to take another look! If your not a member of CTP I strongly recommend this program to everyone looking to make money online.

The training here is great, but they say it way better than I can. Here is an excerpt from one of their email swipes.

“Introducing Click Track Profit the ultimate step by step training platform that has YOU in mind!

The training at CTP will take you from the beginner stages all the way through to expert level training, without complicating the process.

And best of all, you can go at your own pace using their revolutionary ‘drip fed training method’!

From tracking to content creation, traffic generation to social media…
CTP goes over it all.

Check it out today and enjoy the journey…”

I have gone through their new training videos and I love them. They are short and easy to understand and tell you exactly what you need to do, and not to do, to become a successful online affiliate marketer. The lessons are also set up in a sequential series to lead you down the path step by step in an orderly fashion.

There is so much training and content here I can’t even begin to tell you everything Click Track Profit has to offer. You need to see it for yourself!

In addition to the training CTP is also an “Awesome Sauce” online community that is ready, willing, and able to help you in your journey to success online and in your life! I have been a member here for many years and have met many friends and business associates. I look forward to meeting more, including you!

Come join us and finally learn how to succeed online with out all the hype and false promises that you have heard in the past.

Marketing with Safelists

Created with Canva

Hello Fellow Marketers

I want to share with you some tips and tricks that I use to market effectively with safelists and viral mailers.

A lot of people think that safelist advertising is a waste of time, but I think it is because they don’t know how to use them effectively. I use safelists all the time and get good results with them.

The most important thing to remember is what kind of safelist to use. The best safelists are credit based lists. With this type of list you click on a link in the email to collect points so you can send out your email to the safelist. If the safelist allows you to use html code, use it. You only have seconds to catch their attention.

Make your email subject line stand out from the crowd. Add symbols before and after your title.

Examples:

###Incredibly Enticing Title!!###,
***Incredibly Enticing Title!!***

This brings me to my next point. Offer them what they are looking for MORE FREE ADVERTISING. Don’t waste your time trying to sell them a product.

I would also keep your ad copy extremely brief. Remember the main reason the reader opens your email is to get the points so they can send you an email. Just dangle a carrot in front of their nose and lead them to your website.

If the person reading your email has their interest peaked they are more likely to look at what you have to offer. DO NOT OFFER TO MUCH INFORMATION. Keep them wondering “Hmmm, what is this?”.

Another extremely important thing to remember is the link that you use in your safelist email. Link to a splash page or a squeeze page. DO NOT send them to your full website!! They probably won’t read it. They are only collecting points. If the splash or squeeze page is of interest to them they may move to your website. The best advise I can give you is to move the prospect from the safelist to your own personal list.

Safelist marketing will work if you remember what it is all about. Think about your own behavior when you are clicking for credits.

I would also like to say a few words about the email server you use for your safelist mails. DO NOT USE YOUR PRIMARY EMAIL ACCOUNT!!! Your inbox will be inundated with emails from the list.

I use Gmail, which is also what most of the safelists recommend as well. I have 2 gmail accounts set up specifically for safelists. One for the list emails and another one for the admin emails.

I like Gmail because I can set up filters and folders for each safelist I belong too.

I hope this article was helpful in furthering your safelist advertising.

How I Write An Article or Blog Post

Header Created in Canva

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to write about how I write an article or a blog post.

First of all, I have to admit that I used to be a cut and paste kind of blog poster. I would look for information on programs or topics that I was promoting or interested in. Then I would cut and paste a blog post together with a few of my own words mixed in.

That was before I learned about the power of using your own words and perspective. Jon and Blain of Click Track Profit have taught me the power and value of using MY perspective. How I go about writing articles and blog posts now, is to write about my own experience with the concept or program that I want to spotlight.

I find that, for me, the best way to do that is to open up a notepad and just start typing. The ideas and the words just come to me as I write.
This article is a great example of that. I had a general idea of what I wanted to say, but I had no idea of what I was going to write.

When I first started blogging it was awkward and clumsy, with lost of rewriting and editing. But, the more I do it the easier and more enjoyable it becomes.

So here is what I suggest you do. Pick a subject you are interested in. Open up a notepad. Start typing. Once you have your ideas typed in front of you edit to your taste and style.

If you need a place to publish your posts, you could start a WordPress Blog or I would suggest you join The Hive Blockchain and CTPTalk.

The best part of being a member of The Hive Blockchain and CTPTalk is that everything is free. No upgrades, fees, bait and switch tactics. Plus it is a wonderful community of like minded people and YOU GET PAID to publish content!

If you are not familiar with Hive, Blockchain or CTPTalk, Click the banner below and join the Hive Guide for free and it will take you step by step through the signup process.

I hope this article was helpful and encouraging.

Controlling My Diabetes

Image from Pixaby

Hello Everyone,

I have been dealing with diabetes for many years and I wanted to share a little bit about how I deal with this disease.

First let me tell you a little bit about the disease itself. I want to say that the opinions here are my own based on what I have learned about this disease over the years.

I suffer from what is referred to as Type 2 Diabetes. What that means is that my body does not produce enough insulin.

As I understand it, Type 2 diabetes is a three fold disease.

  1. Your pancreas does not produce enough insulin to offset the amount of carbohydrates that are consumed. All carbs are the issue for diabetics not just sugar. Although sugar is considered empty carbs with little to no nutritional value.
  2. Your body develops a condition called insulin resistance. What that means is that your body does not know how to use the insulin that it does produce.
  3. Your liver produces glucose to give you the energy you need to go about your life. With diabetics this production can be out of control.

Many Type 2 Diabetics can control their disease with a carefully planned diet. I did this for many years until my blood glucose was no longer responding to the restricted diet. When that happened I needed to take medications.

For many more years I took a medication called Metformin and I still do. When that was no longer enough I was forced to begin insulin therapy. I was taking 2 different kins of insulin. The first one was a long acting insulin which I injected once a day. I also took a fast acting insulin before each meal. In addition to that I was injecting an insulin resistance drug before meals.

I did this for a few years until my doctor prescribed an insulin pump about 15 years ago. I am currently on my third pump, a Mini Med 770G pump from Medtronic. It attaches to my body through an infusion set. There is another devise that attaches to my body that reads my blood glucose and feeds it directly to my pump.

Image from Medtronic Website

This has made a very big difference in my diabetes control. The measure used to determine the effectiveness of your therapy is a test called A1C. The range of this test to avoid damage to your body from diabetes is under 7.0. Before my pump my A1C was in the 9 and up range. Since I began using the pump my level has dropped to between 6.5 and 6.9.

If you have diabetes and are struggling to keep it under control, I would recommend talking to your doctor of diabetic educator about getting an insulin pump.

I have been a diabetic for many years and have successfully managed it with the help of my doctor and diabetic educator. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. I will be happy to help.

A Glimpse Into the Near Future

Hello everyone,

Over the next few days I have plans to record a few how-to videos for some online programs that I use on a regular basis.

One of them is a program called Viral Mail Profits. This program puts all of your mailers, titles and ad copy on one place. This makes it very easy and convenient to send out your ads to many safelists and viral mailers it much less time than what it usually takes to send to multiple mailers.

Another program that I want to create a video for is called TE Command Post. This program keeps track of all of your traffic exchanges. That includes your credits, banners, text ads and even your commissions.

Both of these programs also act as downline builders for other programs you belong to. What that means is if you recruit others to either of these programs, they may join you in the other programs that are included in the downline builder.

I was going to do at least one of these videos today, but since I had to work my offline job today I didn’t have time.

Plus, the management company for my apartment building was doing some major remodeling in my bathroom. My wife and I are getting a brand new shower installed! So it was very noisy in my apartment, Not very condusive to producing videos.

Be looking for these videos in the next few days. I will be looking forward to your feedback.

A Little Bit About Me

My Family from the left: Shawn, my wife Suzanne, Me, Megan and Pam

Hello Everyone,

I am taking part in the Click Track Profit 30 Day Content challenge and today I was drawing a total blank as to what to write so I decided to do an update about me and my life.

My name is Steven Ackerman and I am married to my wife Suzanne for a month shy of 32 years. We live in a small town, Buffalo Minnesota, about 40 miles west of Minneapolis. Suzanne and I have three adult children. Our son Shawn who is 31. He just got married this summer to his wonderful wife Andi.

We also have 2 daughters. Megan is 30 and is married to Mike for 3 years. Pam is 28 and is married to Cody for a month shy of 3 years. My 2 daughters almost sent us to the poor house. They both got married the 3 years ago about 2 months apart.

Pam and Cody are the parents of our first grand child, Charlie who is 14 months. He is a real cutie. I just wish I could see him more. Suzanne and I live in Minnesota and Charlie lives in Texas.

Our 14 month old Grandson Charlie!

I am mostly retired at the age of 65. I will be 66 in October. In addition to my online efforts I work a couple days a week at my local Walmart. It helps pay for my online efforts. I am hoping to replace that income with online income in the near future. Suzanne also works part time as a Personal Care Attendant.

As far as my online business is concerned. I am the owner of Tornado Traffic, a traffic exchange that just celebrated it’s 4th anniversary. My main affiliate effort is with a very exciting new program Genesis Lifestyle Network.

So that is a very brief overview of Me, my family and my online business. I hope you enjoyed getting to know me a litter better.
