Trying to set the interest in this. Here is a good writeup on one way that this software is being used.

Lets take a look at the new things we can do with WP Traffic Tools.


ADVERTISEMENT PROFILES


  • We now have a sub-section called 'Category Placements', which allow targeting ads/content to specific categories.
  • We now have a new placement option, 'widget', in which WPTT will place the ad to a special widget belonging to WPTT. If no ad/content is detected then the widget does not display. You will have to manually add the widget to your sidebar for it to take affect.





TOP SEARCHES


  • I've improved the way we add top searches to the bottom of the post, and also added the ability to either display the top searches for the local page or the top global searches, as well as added sorting and limiting and linking options.
  • All this capability is now available in a custom WPTT widget that allows you to define the settings... As you can tell I've finally learned the art of widget development... Muahaha.







It was brought to my attention that there is a free plugin called SEO Searchterm2 that handles the displaying of topsearches, but I was unaware of this plugin when I first started developing the feature in, and now that they are in as another customer pointed out, it makes since to keep as much functionality under one plugin to reduce the overhead of having multiple plugins... so this in mind I decided to go ahead and improve the topsearches functionality to match the SEOSearchterm2... the only thing different is the lack of statistics... but for this I still prefer Rank Tracker to handle my search engine gathering statistics.
 
Some of the Recent Improvements

Hey Guys, here are some of the most recent updates:

Improved Global Link Cloaking
The global auto link cloaking has been improved to do the following:
Instead of generating a a random string of 7 characters to behave as the permalink; eg: http://www.myblog.com/go/a7gmone , we now check the anchor of the link we are cloaking and use that to generate a permalink.

It’s said that this consideration will most likely increase clickthrough rates, probably yielding the the fact that the appropriate keywords are contained within the link structure.

Lets look at some examples of how this will play out on a live blog.

​

Improved Cloaked Link Tracking (For individually created cloaked link profiles)
In this latest addition to WP Traffic Tools we begin to collect more information related to our cloaked link profiles, such as how many times that link is accessed (we’ve actually had this already) and also now we log where the traffic is coming from (aka track the referrers) and show their distinct counts.

Stuff 1 cookie along with a redirect to a remote location
By popular request this extremely grey hat feature has been included into WP Traffic Tools. Why is it Grey Hat? Because it’s potential to slip into Black Hat use. But still we gotta ask, why is it Grey Hat? Well, for it’s potential to to be used in some super crafty ways that are hardly black hat at all.


Lets look at what we got. We now have the ability to load an additional cookie from a remote page separate from the page we are linking someone to through our masked links. We might ask. How in the world could this be used for anything but piggy backing unwarranted cookies onto our traffic? We the answer can be described in a case, like so:


Say that we want to promote a product by linking a visitor to a specific page somewhere, anywhere that provides great information and might convert. Well we can create a masked link that sets the cookie, and send them on to the content. This gives us freedom to break out of the traditional landing pages provided by affiliate provides and opens us up to nearly unlimited options of potential landing page.


On the counter side you could use this feature to piggy-back other people’s custom sales pages and blog postings, there-by competing with them. This easily could break the law of do unto others. But in perspective it could be argued that the traffic you instigate is traffic that may never have made it to the non-owned location anyway… so no harm is done besides inciting a little misconceived jealously… but there are counter arguments to that as well… and how can you stop your hair from turning grey? Love, surf, and make money in the meantime right.


Still, that is just one case example of how propperness can slip away or remain in tact. At the end of the day there is no telling what kind of useful tactics might come out of a simple feature like this.
It should be noted that currently we are unable to use this feature without cloaking the target URL as well. That means that the URL in the address bar will remain as the masked link and not convert over to the URL we are redirecting visitors to.

Place Advertisements Targeting Categories

​
ADVERTISEMENT PROFILES


  • We now have a sub-section called ‘Category Placements’, which allow targeting ads/content to specific categories.
  • We now have a new placement option, ‘widget’, in which WPTT will place the ad to a special widget belonging to WPTT. If no ad/content is detected then the widget does not display. You will have to manually add the widget to your sidebar for it to take affect.

3.9.1.2 Update Information

Here are the recent additions to WP Traffic Tools.


IMPROVEMENTS ON LINK PROFILES.


  • Improved the code to be able to ignore text strings within title=” and alt=” html.
  • We can now optionally mask the URLs within our keyword auto-linking affects. This will allow us to auto-link keywords to an actual remote URL rather than masking that URL before hot-linking.
  • We now can add developer notes to each profile, which will allow us to tag information to profiles for whatever reason we might need.


IMPROVEMENTS TO THE ADVERTISEMENT MODULE


  • We now have two widget locations to assign ad content to. For those of you currently using the WPTT Widget to place ads, you might be required to resave your profile and check your widgets area to make sure it is ready to accept ads using the new system.

3.9.1.2 - Added Second Widget Option, Masking Now Optional with Keyword Alterations, Notes for Link Profiles WP Traffic Tools
 
Rotating URLs

We now have the ability to add multiple target URLs to our URL masking & Keyword Linking profiles. We also can keep track of traffic to each link instance as well as keep track of the referrals of the traffic.

Check out the Youtube video below to see a demonstration of these features!

Latest Updates - Popunder Profiles

Latest Updates:

Popunder Profiles

We now have a popup profiles section that allows us to quickly add iframe based unblockable popups and unblockable popunders. The idea of having unblockable popups is exciting to me because it is an affected way to promote an offer un-intrusively. As soon as a user clicks anywhere on the screen a popup will occur in a new browser and then arrange itself behind the current active browser so the user does not have to pause in their reading experience.

I personally enjoy receiving popunder advertisements because It’s always interesting to see where this extra browser came from, and wonder how long it’s been chilling there behind the scenes.

We also offer traditional blockable popups and popunders as well as one jquery popup. We’ll considering improving (adding more options to) the jQuery popups as time passes.

Completely Restructured Interface

WP Traffic Tools spans a couple of different areas and applications now. I thought it best to re-organize each module and provide better internal documentation. Everything looks a whole lot better now.

2011-09-12_1711.png


Added a couple of user requested features

Ability to add site based exceptions to global link masking
Ability to disable redirection profile if no referring URL is detected.
Added ‘exclude these ids’ section to Top Searches, as well as fixed some bugs.
Added redirect delay option to redirection profiles.


New Training Videos

Due to all the new improvements since I first started selling WP Traffic Tools, I’ve had to redo all my videos. What a pain! Anyway this time I used a recorded that lets me go over 5 minute intervals so we have about an hours worth of training and explanation. Here’s a link to the 7 Part Video Playlist: WP Traffic Tools - Training - September 2011 - YouTube

Warning: the audio is annoyingly unsmooth but if you turn your volume down it becomes less annoying. Hope this helps!
More Information

For those of you who downloaded the latest version early, I’m sad to report that the auto-update feature is broken. In order to update you will have to run /wp-content/plugins/wp-traffic-tools/update.php manually in your browser.
 
Prepared for you, the latest update to WP Traffic Tools:

Backup & Import Link Profiles

Now we can export our created link profiles in XML format. This allows for backups of work as well as porting all of our masked & unmasked link profiles into a new blog. This was a top requested feature. Hope you enjoy.





Control Cookie Lifespan for Popup-Popunder Profiles


This new addition will let you custom define the lifespan of the cookie that tells WPTT that we have already promoted a popup to a visitor. We can make this lifespan shorter to throw popups at our repeat traffic more frequently, or we can make much larger to ensure we only present a popup to a visitor rarely.


Mask Links Globally only for Spiders


This was a unique request by a customer. If we want to, we can now leave all links uncloaked for human visitors and have them cloaked for spiders. We use special browser feature detections to determine what should constitute a true human as well as useragent filtering.



New Options to Help Throttle Cookie Dropping/Stuffing

WPTT now keeps track of who sets it’s cookies with. If we like, we can set cookies to drop only one time every x days for each visitor. This will allow us to keep our affiliate click-thru statistics more realistic. We have also added in measures to prevent cookie stuffing for spiders/non-human visitors.




Other Miscellaneous Updates


Ad placements for sub-categories


Now when designing Cateogry Ad Targeting profiles, a sub-category will automatically take on any profiles created on it’s parent category. So if you have many sub-categories for one parent category and would like to target all those subs without having to create a profile on each one… well we can just create one on the parent. If there is one detected for that sub-category specifically then it will overwrite the parent category’s profile.

Ability to deliver cookies if the referrer contains…

We now have the ability to drop/stuff cookies based on keywords discovered either in the content (title or body) or the referring URL. Just like keyword-based-ad-placements, you can choose how you want WPTT to search.


For the search engines: Stuff cookie by referrer. Drop cookie keywords detected in referrer.
Global Link Masking now preserves the following elements:


style,class,title,onclick,rel
