Mark Hodgetts's review...
My experience with the program so far

Traffic Hoopla has been around for as long as I can remember. It has evolved a lot over the years and has responded to the changing dynamics of the advertising industry as the traffic generation industry has evolved.

Starting out as a ranking service for traffic exchanges solely, Traffic Hoopla has never really pretended to be anything else other than a downline builder and a ranking service.

Over the years there has been much conjecture about the veracity of the rankings, but every week without fail, Hoopla's owner, Bill Carr has published his rankings. He doesn't shy away from the fact that he ranks each advertising service according to several key factors. These are and always have been:

  1. The authenticity of traffic.
  2. The volume of traffic.
  3. The responsiveness of traffic.
  4. The profitability of the affiliate program.

He has copped criticism from time to time about seeming to favor certain exchanges and not rating some very popular ones. However. He has been consistent in ranking traffic services according to his criteria.

From its humble beginnings of ranking the top 10 exchanges, Hoopla has now become a viral traffic generator of its own accord with specific sites dedicated to slightly different sections of the market. Besides the flagship program, Hoople also has sites dedicated to:

  • List Mailers
  • Traffic Exchanges
  • Viral advertising
  • Bitcoin earning sites
  • Rewards earning sites
  • Most profitable traffic earning sites

Each program draws you further into the traffic web, with several traffic sources (including Leads Leap) being consistently recommended across all sites.

As a traffic builder, Hoopla has proven to be more durable than anything else on the market, it also has the added bonus of generating some affiliate commissions over time.

What I Like

Hoopla first and foremost has a trust element built into its brand. It keeps on keeping on. By and large, its rankings (with the occasional surprise) are pretty close to my own perceptions. It is consistent, clear, and never wavers from its core purpose of building traffic. If you use this and recommend it to others, it will help you to build traffic over time.

What I Dislike

Some of Bill's emails are a little folksy for me, but that's really nitpicking. I'd like to see a little more how-to guides for beginners in the member's area as it can be a little confusing. Sometimes. , I fear that Bill's desire to keep things simple may be a little overzealous. But it seems to work for him - so who am I to judge?

Final Verdict

The Hoopla family should be part of your marketing arsenal. Preferably recommended on the back end of your marketing efforts. It is proven to work, helps build traffic, and has been around for almost as long as Traffic Exchanges. If you haven't joined, I think that you should.

Joy Healey's review...
Update March 2024

Just been reviewing my reviews at LeadsLeap :-)

Some I have deleted as they didn't stand the test of time, but The Downliner is still firmly on my favourites list. Sending me traffic (especially from the Social Posts). Just this morning I had a renewal commission from a long term customer, so he is presumably as impressed as I am.

My experience with the program so far


I first joined this program three years ago, then left it while I had a break from online business, but I always remembered it fondly.

So when I came back online and was reminded of it, I was pleased to restart my paid membership, and, within my first month, someone who found a site I'm advertising on The Downliner joined my business. That's more than covered the cost of my first month's membership.

Within my own contacts I have recruited two TDL team members who have been equally impressed with the site, Both have upgraded too, and stayed long term members. My commission was registered promptly (can be withdrawn when it reaches $20), although I tend to use it to buy further advertising. I found several 'free' members too, but it's not uncommon that T/E members stay free.

What I Like

  • There are 3 levels of membership, one is free and the other two are extremely good value.
  • Free members can earn from their referrals
  • There's a low ($20) threshold to withdraw your commissions by PayPal or Payza
  • You're only 'charged for' unique views, other views are classed as Free Views.
  • There's a lot to get my head round, but within the site dashboard another member has provided an extremely helpful explanatory video
  • Support is excellent, I even had prompt answers over the weekend
  • Paid members TDL can join the 'TDL Machine' which gives access to All In One Profits, a complete suite of business tools with plans starting at just $10 a month and paying an amazing $10 a month commission (even more for the higher plan levels). The TDL Machine will find you 6 paying members to get your AIOP business off to a flying start. I didn't join this as I already have an auto-responder, but for anyone with no a/r this would be a great benefit.
  • The TDL detailed stats show where my link is being seen and how long visitors stay on my site
  • You can earn 'shop points' to use in your own promotions, by promoting a co-op link
  • Otherwise you can buy 'shop points' at an extremely low cost, or by upgrading
  • You can 'win' points with a daily wheel spin, and I win regularly - maybe 75% of the time.
  • You can also earn points by clicking on solo-ads that come to my in-box, clearly labelled.
  • Traffic is coming from a vast array of sources including PTCs, Safelists, Traffic Exchanges, Classified Ads, CPC traffic and well as social media I received thousands of clicks in just a few days for 5 minutes 'work' placing my social media post link on the TDL ads section.
  • Most important of all, my links are being rotated on more traffic exchanges than I've even heard of. There's no way I could cover afford the time or money to promote on all those sites personally.

What I Dislike

I wish there was a way that I could target specific countries, but nothing else.

Final Verdict

Advertising on the Downliner is saving me a ton of time and money while building my list, and - most important of all - I know it's genuine traffic because I have already had an email exchange with a lead who took a paid upgrade.

Highly recommended.

Linda Bomba's review...
My experience with the program so far

Paid Per Letter was launched on January 15, 2024, is owned by Lisa Kryml. She made over $78K last year doing this program part-time and is now teaching others to do the same.

There is a one-time set up fee of $199.99 and there is an affiliate program as well which is a one-time $20 to set up and then $25 per month. The compensation plan is a 3 x 10 matrix. For every person in your matrix, you earn $5 which you might get some spillover.

If you refer anyone to the program, you earn a $100 commission. They pay you $5 for every letter you write, and they provide training.

This program is simple and if you're at least 18 years old and you can read and write you can do this program.

Earn money through hand-written letters. They teach you how to start earning up to $50-$75 per hour by writing letters to select large businesses all from the comfort of your home even with no experience.

After going through the course, which took me about 32 minutes and I wrote my post card and envelope and submitted for approval which they will review it to ensure you did it correctly.

What I Like

I like the fact you don't need to refer or sell anything with this program. It's so simple and you decide how much you want to do. For example, if you did 200 letters in a month you would earn $1K which is cool.

What I Dislike

So far nothing.

Final Verdict

This is the simplest program I have seen in my 12+ years in this industry literally anyone who can read and write can do this and earn.

This is perfect for stay at home mom's, retirees, students anyone who is looking to make additional money working full or part time from the comfort of your home.

My experience with Leadsleap so far

This system is real, I have all the tools to make money online. This system is great and less than a month after I joined as a Pro member I recruited 3 Affiliates and my business continues to grow. I have joined many online businesses trying them for months and can never get the results I'm looking for. With Leadsleap I started to see the result at the beginning. No matter your level of experience Leadsleap can help you grow your business faster. If you get stuck with your online business with all the tools you will get from this system you can unstuck and keep on going.

What I Like

Leadsleap makes my life easy with their platform with no more worries, eliminating frustration and confusion. On everything, there is a tutorial to help you out.

The support team is great, and quickly they answered when I asked a question.

What I Dislike

Up to now, I don't have anything yet I don't like about leadsleap, and as I'm continuing learning.

Final Verdict

At first, I didn't believe I could get a system like leadsleap where I got all on the spot to get my business growing. I decided to give it a try, now all I can say about leadsleap this is the exact system I was looking long time ago. I did spend a ton of money and had no good results.

Donald Lowery's review...
My experience with the program so far

This is a new program, and so far has been pretty good. They publish training videos, and host live zoom calls. There is an official Facebook group page as well as an internal social media account where you can mingle with other members. I really like that they take the time to check all reviews to ensure they are not put up in order to try and "game" the system.

What I Like

I like the fact that Local City Places is free to join for anyone. I also like the fact that you can earn income from those reviews, but you don't get paid for the reviews themselves, you get paid if the business decides to come on board as a featured business. You need to post honest reviews (good or bad), and they are all checked by a real person to ensure quality vs quantity. Think of it like Yelp or Google Reviews, but you can earn an income.

What I Dislike

The only thing I can say I dislike would be that it can take some time for a review to post, because they are all manually checked (not that this is a bad thing), so it can take a little bit of time for reviews to get posted.

Final Verdict

I would say that Local City Places is a great place to join and post honest reviews for businesses. If you post the first review, and a business decides to join as a featured business you will be paid for each and every month that business stays on board. Can you imagine having a few businesses deciding to come on board as a featured business and getting paid monthly based on that?

There is no sales, you don't have to convince anyone, or any business to come on board, all you have to do is post an honest review, good or bad, and they will take care of the rest. It's just like posting (or reading) reviews on Yelp or Google. I say why not. It really costs nothing but a few minutes, and it's free to join. It's a total win.
