when was the last time you traded traffic and links?

[vroomlinks]

Asking since the trade business has come to a halt except for crappy sites with fake hits.

[badkitty]

It is easy to blame trades cheating , I see bots being the bog culprit.

In the day UCJ was the one we all bought and used to trade with, after that died we switched to Autorank Pro, then that disappeared we went with Tradeexpert, that got basically abandoned so the traffic trade game died off.

Always looking for pornstar and celebrity site traffic

2022-2023 when there were serious traffic peeps trading, now it's all 3rd world sites sending bots and useless quality traffic.

I sell and buy for myself and other, no more trades.

I'm doing link trades all the time what you got

[jimp]

Still do it, just not the way it used to work. Open trades with strangers are dead, everything we swap now is with two or three people we already know, same niche, thumbs on the tube pages rather than a link in a footer nobody sees. Small volume but its real traffic that actually clicks through. The fake hit thing is mostly the trade scripts that auto match you with whoever signs up, if theres no human on the other end dont bother.

what trade script you using?

Nothing off the shelf tbh. With two or three people you know you dont really need a script, its just thumb blocks on each others tube pages and we check the stats on our end once a week to see if it still makes sense. Honestly we're building our own trade thing into the tool we make, but for a handful of partners a shared spreadsheet and some html does the job.

The problem is bots skewing stats when I trade
