Kinda confused here bearing in mind my some are good productivity over 200% yet you have trades that are high up in your list...sent you more then you sent them but productivity is low....if i do a cull this would be nearly half of my trades and worried about the affects it would have...bearing in mind my ratio is 130% so there are trades that almost match what I'm sending but some that are nowhere near it...so what do you do? keep the good productivity I guess?

think the worse trades are ones that signed up rather then the ones I added myself...

I am just playing about with this side of things myself and have been trying to focus on the productive ones, at the same time trying to maintain a balance with large traffic trades. I would look to see if there isn't a way to throttle the hits you send out to trades you are concerned about in your script somewhere, rather than delete them outright.

Thinking maybe the ones I send a lot more to reduce my ratio to 100% instead of 130% that may balance things up a bit for who's sent what...but could still be a shit productivty rate their end...think even enstein would have difficulty working out the maths! lol

I would bin this type of shit traffic generation and go for something better -

There are some real stinker trades out there.. I have some that are 30-50% prod and then others that are 100-200%.. takes few brains to ditch those trades that send the crap traffic.

But then there's volume to consider too.. ah the variables of traffic trading..

traffic is useless without sales. With TGPs it's easy to get obsessed with numbers.

Maybe the sites YOU trade with.

Otherwise, that statement isn't true at all.

I can't trade with thumb TGPs, shit quality traffic for the most part. It depends what your site is though, whether you can convert thumb traffic -- and I can't.

Yes, that must be it.
