Hello Team! I got a great item in my TOOLs BOX to assist you with your start pages in MPAM! Best of all it is FREE!! (I love the sound of those four letters :^) )
Today I am going to show you how to use this tool (BROADPAGE) with your start pages and also kill those annoying pop ups. Yes. I know we use pop ups in our own MPAM site, but they get in the way when I am trying to surf 7 or 8 start pages at once. I am sure you feel the same. ;^)
Lets get started.
1. Go to http://www.BroadPage.com and download their browser.
It is free (if you don't mind one discrete ad banner and I don't). This web
browser allows you to display many web pages in the same
window, arranged in whatever manner you want. If you later want to get
rid of the banner ad, you can purchase it for $25.00.
2. Have your list of start page urls handy. I know that MPAM has a java.script for rotating start pages but I was not impress with the results. This process works a LOT better.
3. BroadPage has a feature that allows you to save any combination of
URLs as individual layouts. First create a layout with 8 panels (two
columns with four rows in each column). To do this, go to the top
toolbar and click on the "close all panels" logo, the fourth logo from the
left that looks like a wrapped gift. This will bring up a blank full
screen panel. Then go to the "open new panel logo" third from the left
that looks like an envelope with the top right corner bent over. Click
on this seven times, which will give you eight panels, counting the
original panel. Then click "Arrange" open and click on "Tiled
Horizontally" This will give you your 8 panels. Next, insert the URLs from the
start page programs in the address space of the panels, a different
URL in each panel. Then click on "Layouts" in the menu bar at the top
of the page and then "Save Current Layout" in the drop-down menu to name
and save this layout. Name it something simple, like "Startpage" Now
you should see the name of the layout you just saved on the drop-down
menu under "Layouts" in the top menu bar and on the menu bar on the left,
which you can open, resize and close by clicking on the dot and arrows
in the bottom left on the taskbar.
HINT: You can resize each panel by dragging and dropping the top,
bottom, left or right frame bars of each. You can also maximize and restore
each individual panel.
4. After having done this, every time you start BroadPage you can
simply click on the saved layout in the menu bar on the left or from
the drop-down menu under "Layouts". Be sure to close the left menu bar
before surfing to make the panels as large as possible. When the pages
finish loading, you can just follow down the left and right columns to
bring up new pages in the manner required by each different program.
5. If you have a slow connection and/or not very powerful computer,
opening eight pages at the same time may be too much. In such a
case try less pages until your computer is running fast enough that you
are happy with it.
6. BroadPage allows you to disable popups by clicking on "Options" in
the top menu bar, then on "Popups" in the drop-down menu.
Using this method I can generate a ton of hit
credits in a little over 2 hours. You can set your own target according to
your connection speed and time limits. I find Click Silo's hit counter a
convenient tool to use for this purpose. Even without any referrals,
working 8 start page exchanges at once using this method allows you to
generate a large amount of traffic. Add the traffic you can generate by
sharing this method with referrals and you are talking major streams of
free traffic.
There are many different programs on the web geared to using start page
exchanges to generate traffic, but they all have one thing in common -
their foundation is hit page traffic generation. In that regard, what
I am teaching you is a method 8 times more powerful than any of the
others, in that it provides a way for you and all of your referrals you
instruct in replicating it to generate 8 times the traffic.
