Sometimes it can also be good to submit a support ticket about something at random, just to check the activity of the support team - how helpful and responsive - AND active they are!

I agree That The #1 component of a great exchange is a great exchange owner. As a member of over One Hundred exchanges(active in about 65),My list of "Pet Peeves" is to long to list, but My number One is,exchange owners that won't take out the trash. What I mean by this is: Popups that have to be clicked out of before you can surf the next site. I call these software programs "Browser Spam". (Bubonic,Liveagent,Smartagent,etc) These programs have become so rampant, that its made me have to start to cull some of the exchanges that I surf.

Why be in business if your not there to help your customers? One in particular we have emailed a dozen times and never received a response. He was of course deleted. We surf in a given week approx. 45 different exchanges and have added or deleted a dozen more. We are upgraded at many but there are others that are not worth your money. Surf free for awhile before upgrading to see if the administrator really is running the TE or is it running itself? As Tony said, less than 100 hits a week? Can it.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('70','Peter Ackerson'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('70','Peter Ackerson','The absolute worst TE sites for us is ones that never respond to emails, questions or the like.

I allow every member to make 1 downline contribution to the downline builder at HelpHits, but I have final say in what gets put there.
