How this works

Bucky Bunny wants to provide as much aid and assistance to webmasters as possible.  This system is designed to help webmasters get traffic to their sites in a simple, cost-effective way.  This benefits the webmasters in a couple ways:

• More traffic means potentially higher ratings on statistical sites, such as Alexa and SiteRanking
  • Higher statistical ratings mean potentially higher relevance on search engines
• More traffic means more exposures and impressions are made of your site and it's advertisements
• More traffic means better positioning at 'topsite' websites
  • TopSites are just more categorical-specific versions of a statistical ratings site
• More traffic means more potential customers coming through your website

One mistake that many Traffic Exchanges make is telling a webmaster that they will be "flooded with targeted customers, ready to buy".  That is not the primary purpose of a Traffic Exchange.

The primary purpose of a Traffic Exchange is to generate traffic to the website, period.

That being said, if your target audience is "webmasters working on promoting their websites", then you will probably reach some potential customers.  But even then, do not expect high conversion rates.  Webmaster surfers are all in the same boat: they want more traffic, for higher ratings, for better rankings, to get customers from the larger search engines.

General Concept

In a nutshell: You visit other websites through one of our viewer systems and earn 'carrots'.  Each carrot entitles one of your pages to be shown to someone else.  For those interested in tech-speak, we offer both Auto Surf and Manual Surfing options.

You are a webmaster, and you want web-surfers to see your website, for all the reasons listed above. Bucky Bunnys Breed Traffic will show your website to other users, at a cost of 1 'carrot each time your website is shown.  So, as long as you have 'carrots' available, your site will be shown to our other Bucky Bunnys Breed Traffic users.

[In train-speak: We'll let you put your station on our tracks.  Trains carrying passengers will stop at your station, as long as your station has 'tokens' to stop the train.  Passengers earn carrots by riding the train to other Bunny Run.]

carrots are gained in a couple different ways:

1. When you first join Bucky Bunnys Breed Traffic, you are given some carrots
2. You can choose to 'be a passenger', and surf other sites through one of our display systems.  For every site you visit, you will earn carrots
3. We also sell carrots, with bulk-discounting available. i.e.: When you buy more carrots, you pay less per carrot.
4. You can display our referral page.  Each display to a unique user on a given day will earn some carrots. 
5. You can also refer other members.  If someone signs up through your referral page, you get carrots when they sign up, and a percentage of their carrot earnings when they are a passenger.
6. If someone you referred purchases something or upgrades their membership, you get some carrots from that, as well.
7. We also now offer a Banner Exchange: Place a line of javascript on one or more of your website's pages, and every time that page is viewed, you earn between 0.1 and 0.15 carrots, depending on the size of banner you select.

Different earning and referral ratios are available to different 'levels' of membership.  For specifics on how many carrots are earned in different ways at each level of membership, see our Membership Levels page in the Pricing section.

Terminology used on Bucky Bunnys Breed Traffic:

Yard - A website (or part of a site) that dedicated to Traffic Exchanging.  A yard contains tracks and boxcars, to carry passengers between stops, Bunny Runs, and other yards.

Carrots - A unit of value.  1 carrot allows a member to show one page they wish promoted 1 time.  carrots may be earned through viewing, referrals, or they may be purchased.

Stops or Stations - A page on a web site.  This is what the passenger views  to earn carrots.

Bunny Run - A block of related stops that can be presented in a particular order to passengers.  This allows webmasters to create longer, more attractive, or more meaningful messages to passengers.  [Does anyone remember the old 'Burma Shave' signs?]  This also has a nice side-effect, since it will look to site-statistics systems as though each user is 'clicking through' multiple pages, creating longer visit times.

Tracks - A connection between way-stations, and between separate yards.  This software provides the tracks to move passengers around the internet.

The Train - The Breed Traffic website is the train... it takes passengers on "treks" through various websites in exchange for carrots.

Site Hopper - A web surfer, using our viewer to view sites like yours in exchange for carrots (or cash).  This is also the generic term used for any membership level.

Riders - A high-volume passenger.  They get extra benefit by being a more-frequent passenger.  This bonus can add on to any membership level.

Silver - A monthly membership fee allows the Silver  member to manage lots of Stops (many pages to display), create Way-Stations, and travel faster and more profitably than a Site Hopper.

Gold - A monthly membership fee entitles the Gold members to travel on faster trains, and earn more carrots per stop.  As 'drivers of trains', Gold members have an advantage over Silver members.  Again, more Stations, and faster travel.

Platinum - A monthly membership fee entitles the Platinum member to manage more stops than a Gold member. 

Diamond  - An option for those in extreme need of very heavy traffic.  A monthly fee provides a Diamond member with extreme speed, and options for 'private boxcars' (priority in main rotation within a yard).  Diamond members have the most control within a given yard of any user outside of the Administrator, and may create up to 10  Bunny Runs.

We envision Breed Traffic as the 'Central Yard Controller', shuttling 'boxcars of passengers' across 'tracks' to 'way-stations' and other 'yards'  where all members can all benefit.
