Create an account, register your first site, and understand how the exchange works.
Traffman is a content traffic exchange network: instead of buying ads, members place blocks of each other's content. Your site promotes its own material and sends visitors to others at the same time.
These guides take you from an empty account to a live content block. If the idea of the block is new to you, start with what the content block does.
