How can we help?
Select a question below to learn more. These answers cover the topics most frequently asked by traffic exchange members.
What is a traffic exchange?
A traffic exchange is an online service where website owners exchange visits. You view websites submitted by other members to earn credits, then assign those credits to your own approved websites so that other members can view them.
How do I receive visits to my website?
Log in, add your website in the appropriate member-area section, and begin surfing. Each eligible page you view earns credits according to your membership ratio. Assign available credits to an approved site to place it into the traffic rotation.
What is a surf ratio?
A surf ratio determines how many credits you earn for the pages you view. For example, a 2:1 ratio generally means that two qualifying views earn one traffic credit. Ratios may vary by membership level, so check your account for the benefits currently available to you.
What is the surf timer?
The timer is the minimum period a website must remain visible before a view can qualify for credit. When the timer completes, follow the on-screen instruction to continue to the next site. Timer lengths may vary by membership level.
Are the visitors real people?
The exchange is designed for manual use by registered members. Automated surfing, bots, scripts, and other methods of simulating views are prohibited. As with any advertising method, a visit does not guarantee engagement, a signup, or a sale.
Are traffic exchange visits guaranteed to produce sales?
No. 123 Hits provides advertising exposure and does not guarantee clicks, leads, sales, income, or conversions. Results depend on factors such as your page design, headline, offer, audience, and follow-up process.
What types of pages work best?
Short, focused pages normally suit timed traffic best. Use a clear headline, one principal message, a visible call to action, and a fast-loading mobile-friendly layout. Splash pages, lead-capture pages, and concise offer pages are commonly used.
Can I promote an affiliate link?
Affiliate offers may be submitted when they comply with our Terms and the affiliate programme's own rules. You are responsible for confirming that the programme permits traffic exchange promotion. Misleading claims and prohibited content will not be accepted.
How do I assign credits to a site?
Open the website management area of your account, select the relevant site, and use the available credit allocation control. A site must be active and approved, where approval is required, before assigned credits can deliver traffic.
Why is my website not receiving traffic?
Check that the site is active, approved, and has credits assigned to it. Also verify that the URL loads correctly and does not break frames or trigger a browser warning. Delivery can vary according to member activity and the number of sites in rotation.
Why was my website rejected or suspended?
A site may be rejected if it does not load correctly, breaks the viewing frame, contains prohibited or unsafe material, launches excessive pop-ups, forces downloads, presents misleading claims, or otherwise breaches our Terms. Correct the issue before requesting another review.
Which websites and advertisements are prohibited?
Prohibited material includes unlawful, fraudulent, hateful, sexually exploitative, malicious, or rights-infringing content. Sites containing malware, phishing, forced downloads, browser hijacking, illegal schemes, or deceptive income claims are also prohibited. Please review the Terms for the complete standards.
May I use an auto-surfer, bot, or script?
No. Automated surfing, bots, scripts, macros, timer manipulation, and any other method intended to simulate genuine viewing are prohibited. Suspected automation may lead to removed credits, account suspension, or termination.
Can I have more than one account?
Unless written permission is provided, each person may operate only one account. Creating duplicate accounts to gain credits, claim rewards, refer yourself, or obtain another advantage may result in all related accounts being suspended.
What are banner and text ad impressions?
An impression records an eligible display of your banner or text advertisement within the Service. Impressions provide exposure but do not guarantee that a member will click the advertisement. Availability and allowances may depend on membership level.
What are the benefits of upgrading?
Paid membership levels may provide improved surf ratios, shorter timers, monthly bonus allocations, additional advertising capacity, and higher referral commissions. Refer to the current membership information for the exact benefits and pricing.
How does the referral programme work?
Share your personal referral link with people who may genuinely benefit from the Service. Eligible referral activity may earn commissions, credits, or other rewards according to your membership level. Spam, self-referrals, false identities, and misleading promotion are prohibited.
How can I keep my account secure?
- Use a strong, unique password.
- Do not share your login details.
- Keep your email address current.
- Sign out on shared devices.
- Contact support promptly if you notice unfamiliar activity.
Can unused credits be exchanged for cash?
No. Credits and advertising impressions are internal, non-monetary features of the Service. They are not legal tender, have no cash value, and cannot be redeemed for cash unless a specific promotion expressly states otherwise.
