talking about earning so much. I sufed 1000 sites and it took me almost two weeks and all that for 30 cents. Unless you are sitting there all day surfing HOW is this possible to earn lots of money? Ok if you are making money surfing, how many hours do you surf per day? Any takers?

I surf on easyhits4u and I usually try to surf at least 250 sites daily. Sometimes I surf less and sometimes more than that and sometimes not at all. I have also surfed more than 1000 sites in a day few times. My record so far is 1300 sites in a day. Yes it is not possible to earn lots of money as they give only 30 cents for 1000 pages surfed but I also surf for getting credits so that I can use it to get visitors to my blog which I have created couple of weeks ago. I have received one payment from easyhits4u so far and have already reached my second payout but not requested yet. Surfing does take a lot of time but I do it while doing my other work. I do not give all my time to surfing alone. I keep one tab open for surfing while carrying out other work.

Doing other things while surfing is the only way I can do it. After a few rounds, you start seeing the same sites over and over again. Thanks for sharing your surfing habits.

The people who surf thousands of sites a day are doing it as a full-time job. I don't know how they can afford to do that, but sometimes TEs list their top surfers of the day and there are always people who have surfed huge numbers of sites in a day. It's possible they're cheating either by using bots or maybe groups of people are surfing with the same account, but all I know is that it's not a good income source for me. I do use traffic exchanges a little bit because they have their uses (and I don't really mind slowly building up small amounts of money...I've cashed out on EasyHits4U before), but I don't think of them as huge money makers. I know some people do affiliate promotions with TEs, but it seems like most people who are successful at that buy credits rather than surf for hours and hours on end.

There is no way I could surf full time. I guess I am not the only one that believes surfing cannot be a big money maker. Cant wait to see the other replies.

You'll tiring yourself if you join TE sites and your mainly purpose is only to earn money. Thats why its called traffice exchange, you joined because you need traffic on your site not earning money. If you think of earnig money of TE site you'll just wasting your time.

As I stated in my post above, I DO NOT see how this is possible. I only surf for the traffic and not the cash. I also dont have that kind of time to surf thats why it took me two weeks for those 1000 sites. I see others saying they can surf 1000 sites in days????

I will surf on TE's to promote my blog sometimes. I don't try to earn cash because like you said it takes A LOT of time to do it. I think the only way to earn from surfing sites is to get tons of referrals. And of course, getting referrals is hard too.

Getting referrals is got to be THE hardest job on the internet. I only surf for credits and not the cash but was just wondering if anyone is making cash.

I guess anything is easy with lots of referrals. But hey, we all know you can have tons of referrals but if not ACTIVE, then its useless.
