Traffic Era & Other Logiscape Exchanges

Let's discuss Logiscape. They have just announced yet another traffic exchange that they won't be able to handle, Traffic Era. As with TS25 and Traffic Pods, they are experiencing framebreakers, site freezes, not founds (already? it just launched a month ago), viruses, password protected pages, enable your cookies, dumbass! warnings and more. And yet, they plod along, taking your hard earned $19.99, $29.99, or worse yet, their by invitation only god only knows how much money it's going to cost you, club level.

Their prices are uniform between the three sites. I fully admit, I surf Traffic Era as a free member. Why? Because everyone and their brother is there right now, and I hope, just as much as you, that one or two of my programs will get a ton of referrals as a result. But lord almighty, I am tired of reporting the same site over and over and over again, just to see it 2 days later again, still breaking frames or causing issues in general. How many of you are paying $19.99 a month per site, equalling about $60 a month for crap from 3 sites that will never be fixed?

Here's the question. Why do you pay $19.99 a month for more frustration than results? There are great sites out there, for much less than 20 bucks a month that will read your reports, test those urls, get rid of the issues and keep your surfing clean. And did I mention they actually answer you when you ask a question with a real response instead of a canned response that got sent to every single person who asked the same question?

One great example of this is Start Xchange - not only can you report a site and the issues with it, but you can block that site from ever showing in your rotation again. And you can do this for free or for as little as $6 per month with some great benefits. And the Administration manages to do this all for you, despite the fact that they have 33000 plus members, with anywhere between 60-160 people surfing at one time. Free or pay for it, it's up to you. But give them a shot...what else have you got to do except keep $13.99 in your own pocket every month?
