Welcome to the first Income Report of 2025. Before I get into it, I want to take a moment to share how I plan to scale my LeadsLeap earnings. I started implementing my plan about a week ago and have already learned some valuable lessons!
The Plan is actually pretty simple, arbitrage. Find a paid traffic source that costs less money than the money earned by the LeadsLeap Coop Program. The tricky part of course is finding the traffic source where you can maximize your earnings and that is where I made my first mistake!
The traffic source that I chose was a PTC site, AdBuxPro. I picked this one because when I originally did my research, it had a fairly low invalid ratio. What I have learned the hard way, is that it actually has a 20% invalid ratio, (20% of the traffic you pay for will not make you money), and the cost per credit is fairly expensive compared to other PTC options. Here is a screenshot of data collected from Rotate4All, which by the way is a good starting point to research cheap traffic sources. You will have to have an account to access the data, but from your login page click on "Traffic Sources" on the left-hand sidebar.
There are several filtering options to choose from and I found the data to be very useful while I was doing more research today. So I bought 5000 credits, 1 credit = 1 view, on AdBuxPro and I have been sending 150 - 200 clicks a day to my LeadsLeap Coop link. AdBuxPro is relatively new and their membership is small so 200/day is about the most views I can get there.
So how much have I made?
Breakdown of everything I've earned:
I will be cashing out in the next week or 2 and will be doing more research to find the best PTC site to send traffic to my LeadsLeap Coop Link. I do have my eye on a couple and will reveal which one I choose in the next income report.
Traffic
Tracking traffic is still a bit of a struggle because whatever tracker I use does not tell me how many views actually register on the coop link. The best way that I've found to track what is actually registering on the coop link, is to just search the traffic source in the coop link panel.
And even tracking the source this way, I can only see traffic for the past 3 days. I think this is about as good as I can do.
TrafficAdBar
EasyHits4U
TrafficG
One thing that I've started doing is targeting traffic from the USA on TrafficG to try and increase my CPM.
Conclusion
I am getting dangerously close to my cash-out goal of $22, $20 plus a $2 transfer fee. At that point, I will start sending traffic from another PTC site and use the rest of my credits at AdBuxPro. My plan moving forward is to be able to send 1000 clicks a day to the LeadsLeap Coop Link using a combination of paid and free traffic. Of course, if I can send that much paid traffic, then I won't need to surf much and will save myself a lot of time. I am estimating that if I can send that much traffic, I should be making $8/week and at that point I could upgrade at some traffic exchanges to get more value out of them, or buy startpages or login ads and add more PTC traffic.
The last thing that I want to say is that this is not something that I think is going to make me or you rich. The overarching goal here is to build up some "seed" money that I can then use to buy advertising for CPA and other offers. The LeadsLeap Coop Program and other PTP programs are just the first step, starting from $0.
As always, thank you for taking the time to read this report, and I appreciate your attention. If you have any suggestions or would like to see different stats/information in my income reports, please leave a comment and I will get back to you as soon as I can, (24 - 48 hrs). If you'd like to learn more about traffic exchanges, read this blog post. You can read about me here.
