Update on Power Surf Central Issues

In response to further communications I received an email from the Hit Safari traffic exchange saying they will honor their part of the original stated Power Surf Central monthly bonus for May. After checking my stats I find that the monthly bonus has now been added to my account for that site, and that site only.

I feel that in response to the May bonus being credited by Hit Safari I can at this point in time raise their site rating to Below Average for only that traffic exchange. Sites with a Below Average rating usually signal issues with member support and therefore do not receive my personal recommendation. This rating may change in the future to reflect improvements made by the site or could be down-graded if more issues arise.

This rating change only applies to the Hit Safari traffic exchange. The ratings for Soaring 4 Traffic and the combined Power Surf Central program remain UNSATISFACTORY.

Members Get the Shaft From Power Surf Central

Power Surf Central, the joint traffic exchange surf venture from partners Hit Safari and Soaring 4 Traffic, has shafted their membership again, but in a huge way this time!

The Power Surf Central program launched in April promised participating members bonus credits for surfing a minimum of 100 ads/sites at both traffic exchanges during one day. The advertised bonuses included not only the daily combined surf bonus of 50 credits, 100 banner credits, and 100 text-links to be credited to the member's account at each traffic exchange, but lured members to surf regularly by also offering weekly and monthly bonuses:

  • Weekly bonuses for earning the daily bonus at least 5 of 7 days during the week.
  • Monthly bonuses for completing the daily surf requirements a minimum of 20 days during the month.
Hit Safari and Soaring 4 Traffic played dirty almost from the beginning by adding "guest" traffic exchanges to the mix and requiring members to surf an additional 100 pages at the third site, for a total of 300 pageviews per day, in order to receive even the basic daily bonus. Several of these "guest' traffic exchanges were of bad quality and did not follow through on paying their part of the bonuses. It took several emails to prod the owners of Power Surf Central (Hit Safari and Soaring 4 Traffic) to get them to do something about their guest exchanges not honoring the bonuses. The PSC owners first tried to pass the buck saying it was up to the guest TE's to award the bonuses, but they were full of bullshit as one of the "guests" was a traffic exchange run by one of their spouses!!!

Power Surf Central has most recently ripped off their members by failing to pay the monthly bonus for May!

An email sent to support yesterday asking when the May Monthly Bonus would be credited to members' accounts, was answered: "oh May was only for testing" What complete crap! April was for testing and PSC paid a partial monthly bonus for the half of April PSC was active anyway!

Because of many ongoing issues:
  1. Poor member support.
  2. Failure to pay all promised bonuses.
  3. Adding on extra exchanges to have to surf.
  4. Adding poor quality "guest" exchanges.
  5. Overall bad experience.
Both Hit Safari and Soaring 4 Traffic, along with their rip off Power Surf Central, are now down-graded to UNSATISFACTORY.

Until further notice these sites and the PSC cannot be recommended, best to avoid them.

Vinefire Outage And Now Lowered Earnings

Up-start and curiously queer traffic exchange VineFire was out of service yesterday (Sunday).

Returning to service early this morning (Monday) VineFire members logging in found disappointing news - the earnings schedule has been significantly reduced.

This move is not without precedences as VineFire has twice reduced earnings in the past, though the most recent reduction was later amended to be less severe.

Basic surfing activity earnings have been cut in half.
Clicking links has been cut to $0.23 per link clinked.
Voting on links has reduced to $0.08 per vote.

Members posting links are now receiving just $0.02 for any up-votes their links might receive.

Whatever other changes VineFire made behind the scenes while off-line yesterday are no apparent at this time. VineFire made not attempt to forewarn members of the down-time with either site-based postings or by email. At this time management has not released any notices or other information about the changes made on Sunday.

It is also apparent that VineFire did nothing to address the problems with several member BOTs clogging the link feed and preventing honest members' links from being seen. Nor has VineFire done anything to rid the site from the plague of pornography related websites being posted, most of them again with the use of BOTs.

Lastly, with VineFire not being forthcoming about this service outage and the changes made, members must prepare themselves for the fact that the reduction in earnings will be followed by a further delay by VineFire in making their promised payouts.

Update On: Hit Safari

UPDATE: The traffic exchange Hit Safari reappeared late Saturday and has remained online at least to the posting time of this article. The traffic exchange was offline and out of commission for two days in a row beginning last Thursday.

This service outage also did not bode well for Power Surf Central.
Hit Safari is one half of the partnership and being off-line means that members could not surf and claim their daily bonuses. Even after Hit Safari returned to service member had great difficulty surfing the required number of days and ads to earn their weekly bonuses. Weekly bonuses require members to earn the daily bonus 5 of 7 days week at Power Surf Central. This outage may well nullify the monthly surf bonuses for many Power Surf Central members as well. This would be a tragedy for loyal members that have already completed 75% of the required monthly surfing.

Will Hit Safari and her partner at PSC make good to the members?
This looks doubtful. There have been no statements, especially apologies,
from either of the Power Surf partners in regards to this latest faux pas.
Emails sent to both Hit Safari and their Power Surf Central partner have gone unanswered.

Hit Safari Eaten By Lions

Long time traffic exchange Hit Safari seems to have been eaten by the lions.

This is the sec0nd day in a row that the site has been off-line.

This also does not bode well for Power Surf Central.
Hit Safari is one half of the partnership and being off-line means that members will not be able to surf the required number of ads to claim their daily bonuses. If Hit Safari remains off-line again tomorrow it will also negate the weekly bonuses for Power Surf Central. If this outage continues may well nullify the monthly surf bonuses for Power Surf Central as well, a tragedy for loyal members that have already complete 75% of the required monthly surfing. Will Hit Safari and her partner at PSC make good to the members?

Emails sent to both Hit Safari and Power Surf Central have gone unanswered.

Review of Soaring4Traffic.com

After joining Soaring4Traffic.com I was very impressed with how easy it was to navigate through the members area and the surfing was a breeze.

Then when I reviewed the Commission plan and the fact I can give away memberships and make huge income on the One Time Offers I practically squealed.

This was a bit more than I expected and boy have I been pleased with this program. The support is great, the follow up is wonderful and the traffic is way above average.

Almost forgot to mention the awesome tools that have been added to this program. This unique Surf Console is without a doubt the easiest and most useful tool I have seen to date. You gotta see it to believe it.

The bottom line is ... this program rocks and I would suggest that anyone who's looking for quality effective traffic should join up today.

There's a whole lot to gain from being a member of
Soaring4Traffic.com.
Check it out and join now!

Do You BLOG???

The term "Blog" is attributed to the late 90's use of the word "weblog" to describe online personal diaries and journals. The early Blogs were also derided by tech elitists as "Blather Logs". Either way the term was later shortened to just "blog" and have become ubiquitous across the net.

Before 2000, personal communication on the internet took different forms depending on the person's internet skills. Email was of course the most prominent. The earliest community forums were dialup text-based bulletin boards, allowing the posting of statements, but comments were in unlinked following statements. With HTML, came the first webpages, where those skilled enough to create a website began keeping online personal journals. This was soon followed by sites hosting communities with a new type of bulletin boards that threaded the conversations and displayed the comments sequentially below the original post, and similarly guestbooks began showing up on personal webpages where visitors could leave a short note to the owner. Guestbooks became threaded and soon many individuals were using them for the beginning of blogging.

As mentioned earlier, user-skills determined the forms that people could utilize on the net. During the early days of the web HTML was hand written, the large communities would come later and bring templates that allowed people to more easily post a homepage, and in 1999 three major site releases targeted the "bloggers" with easy to use applets for writing online. Over the next eight years CMS (Content Management Systems) would improve and expand and bring forth the countless options of online commnuties like MySpace, Mylot, and Gather, and also the explosion in blogging sites.

I began writing webpages shortly after HTML guidelines were released in 1993 and launched my first website in 1994. The site centered on photography and specifically the new digital photography. I also had a personal sub-domain in which I wrote short stories, poetry, keep travel journals, and displayed both my own digital images and those of friends.

Because of other projects, my personal website has laid fallow the past couple years. Currently I'm working on some concepts for a new style "BLOG".

So, back to the title question - Do You BLOG???

If so, what is your blog about?
Where do you post your blog?
On your own website or a blogsite like Blogger or Wordpress?

If you don't blog, what are your thoughts about blogging?
Do you regularly read any blogs?
