Why Must I Install the Privacy
Guardian Browser Extension?
Many web browsers--including
Chrome, Firefox and Opera--require the use of extensions (aka "add-ons") for
certain types of software to be compatible. Browser extensions add features
to your web browser, in this case, the online privacy tool Privacy
Guardian™.
Because Privacy Guardian is a browser-based anti- tracking application that
protects your online activities from spying eyes while you are using the
internet, adding the extension to your browser is the only way Privacy
Guardian will be able to protect your browsing from tracking attempts.
(Microsoft’s Internet Explorer and Edge browsers do not require you to
enable extensions.)
Installing the Privacy Guardian extension
Even if you typically use just one web browser, it is recommended that you
enable online privacy protection for each of your browsers. If you have not
already done so, to enable privacy protection for your browsers:
-
Return to the Browsers tab in
the Privacy Guardian application, from which you clicked to land on this
web page. (Or, from the Privacy Guardian Dashboard, click Browsers.)
-
Here you will see a list of
browsers available for privacy protection.
-
Choose a browser from the
list, and click Enable.
-
Follow the onscreen steps as
Privacy Guardian walks you through adding the browser extension for the
browser.
-
Moving down the list of
available browsers, click Enable and follow the onscreen instructions
for each subsequent browser.
The difference between
extensions and plug-ins
Note that extensions (or add-ons) are not the same as browser plug-ins.
Plug-ins allow websites to embed and render content such as Flash movies or
Java applets. Generally speaking, plug-ins are far less secure than
extensions because websites can load them and exploit any security holes or
bugs within them. Websites are prevented from commandeering your extensions
to perform actions. Simply stated, whereas extensions add browser features
you can use, plug-ins add browser features websites you visit can use.

traffic sources? Start exploring it right now!
Introduction
I know you’ve probably been wondering whether or not you should start your
affiliate marketing traffic journey.
I also know you’ve asked yourself this question:
“What are the best traffic sources for affiliate marketing?”
No biggie!
I’ll give you a complete list.
Prepare to be amazed by info because I’m here to tell you which are the best
traffic sources you’ll need to explore to maximize profits in this game.
Ready?
Let’s go!
What is a Traffic Source?
It depends on whether you’re a Webmaster or a Media Buyer.
In case you’re a webmaster, a traffic source is defined as the platform
through which users have found your website.
Each visit or session to your website has a certain origin which can be
traced.
What if you happen to be a Media Buyer?
A traffic source is the place or platform where you can purchase traffic.
By understanding what website traffic sources are and which traffic sources
are yielding the most profits, you’ll be able to shape and change your
SEO, SMO, SEM and overall monetization strategy.
What Aspects Should I Worry About Before Picking a Traffic Source?
There are numerous aspects to consider when you’re on the verge of picking a
traffic source to start playing the
affiliate marketing game:
-
The Cost of the Traffic
Source
-
The Amount of Traffic
Available
-
Restrictions, Regulations and
Rules
-
The Overall Quality of the
Traffic Source
-
The Targeting Options
Available
-
The Niche or Audience
Let’s check each aspect one by
one, shall we?
1. The Cost of the Traffic
Source
Each traffic source has a certain cost, depending on the type of traffic it
has, the number of GEOs you can monetize in, the quality of traffic
provided, etc.
Some web traffic sources can brag about having traffic that converts well
while others don’t showcase the same powerful traffic.
Due to incredibly tough competition, some sites may be overpriced at a
certain moment, whereas others are cheap and can actually help you make a
cash cow.

2. The Amount of Traffic Available
The ability of marketing sources to provide campaigns that can allow you to
generate a whole lotta sweet cash isn’t all the same.
On some ad networks, you’ll be lucky to play with Tier 3 GEOs with huge
volumes and fewer costs.
On other networks, you’ll only be able to make some cash with the most
expensive GEOs, since the traffic quality is also related to the price
you pay for your visits.
The amount of traffic is different from ad network to ad network and also
from vertical to vertical.
Beware!
There are a whole lotta networks that may have a lot of traffic available.
Even so, the quality of said traffic is really low!
Based on the offer you’re promoting, you must decide where to buy traffic
and which volumes you’re interested in.
3. Restrictions, Regulations and Rules
In some traffic sources for websites, there are tough restrictions you
should watch out for.
These generally have to do with
misleading banners, used to attract customers but which don’t respect
the guidelines and regulations you can find on every single traffic source.
You should always read the restrictions of each traffic source carefully.
Why?
Because you may get banned for playing with fire.
Moreover, mind the content you’re actually able to promote.

You may not have the campaigns approved!"
