Hi there and welcome back.

As ever, I have been busy checking out new, and not so new, services and websites that come across my desk.

When they are good, they find their way into the Phoenix directory.
When they are relevant and good, they find their way into the packages we offer the Phoenix Services team in our network marketing business.
And when they don't meet our strict criteria for quality and relevance, they get dropped!!...

Well. Today, I have one of each to share with you.

Firstly, I am very happy to add LinkCrews to our Phoenix Directory and to start using it in our own promotions.
I like that they have taken time to develop their own Traffic Exchange script rather than just glam up an off-the-shelf script. Hat's off guys!

Here is a little about how their service stands our from their own site -

Why is LinkCrews so different?

LinkCrews is a step above all of the other Traffic Generation sites because we allow you to prequalify every visitor to your site, before they even get there. How this works, is by using specific campaigns for each of site entered into the network. Now for each campaign we will allow you to specify a title and short description of what the site is about. For someone viewing sites in the network, they will see the title and ad copy, and decide if they'd like to find out more, or just move on. Thus all of the traffic to your site will be much higher quality.

Well worth checking out if Traffic Exchanges are your bag.

Now, on the converse side, I have had to take ClickEvolution off the directory as it turns out that it is actually an Autosurf. There other aspects to this service and I am not making any judgements.
However. Since there are so many ewntries in the Directory, each site can only go in under it's main function. That is. What is the main thing visitors will find?

Here at Phoenix Services, we do not rate AutoSurf (all they are good for, in our view, is to bump up your Alexa rating!) so, since the operators of ClickEvolution see fit to have this as a leading part of their offering, we have had to pull them from the Directory.

That's the updates for today (well, yesterday actually! I'm about to open the inbox now!!!).

For those of you with the Desktop version of the Directory, updates announced here will be added to the software on a weekly basis, so if a lot happens here that makes you want to download an updated version, then do wait until announced here, then you will know you are downloading all the juicy stuff.

Another reason to subscribe to the RSS.

All for now. Have fun and make some money! :-}
