There are some sites around to test your internet access. The one I found lately I consider to be one of the best.

Speedtest.net is a broadband speed analysis tool that allows anyone to test their Internet connection.

Want to know if you get what you pay for, compare your speed to any others anywhere on our planet and gather information on your ISP are just some of the offers on this site. And important last but not least: it's a free service.

Ookla provides this service for free to anyone curious about the performance of their connection to and from hundreds of locations around the world. Whether you test just for fun or you really need to certify and validate the true speed of your Internet connectivity, Speedtest.net is the place to be. You can view all of your historical results, share them easily, and even compare them to others in your immediate area or around the globe.

A very interesting new kind of Traffic Exchange I joined recently.
List Surfing is what you get when you combine a traffic exchange with a list builder!
With List Surfing you can get UNLIMITED traffic to your site(s) and at the same time earn mailing credits by surfing in order to mail our responsive membership. This means you get way more traffic, and way more results, for way less work! With our high activity rate and rapid growth you will constantly have a never-ending stream of responsive visitors seeing what you have to offer.

- No surf ratio
- Unlimited Rotation of your site!
- Responsive e-mail advertising!
- Less work.. More Traffic and Results!

All you have to do, to receive all this, is remaining active each month!

How do I stay active?

To be active the first month, all you need to do is surf 50 sites.
To remain active your 2nd month and onward you must have surfed 50 sites within the last 30 days and also clicked on a minimum of 10 earn credit links within e-mails you receive from our member mailing system within 30 days.

This means if you ever go 31 days without meeting those two requirements then your account will go inactive and your site(s) will automatically be pulled out of rotation. At any point you meet those requirements again your account will become active again and your sites will enter unlimited rotation once again. This is great for everyone because it ensures you will get a great amount of traffic to your site each month if you remain active! At the very least you can spend 20 minutes per month to remain active.. Do it because the benefits are huge!

Here is a little trick to write a nicely HTML formatted text, for example for a Squidoo lens post or anywhere HTML text is required and no WYSIWYG editor provided.
This info I found in a newsletter by Travis Sago the Bum Marketer.

Open the CKEditor in a new tab of your browser. Type your text into the text field , format it with the toolbar buttons.
You may enter links, format your text bold or with different colors.
When you're through, click on the source toolbar item and copy the code to the clipboard.
Now open the tab where you need your code and paste it in. Very easy - no?

You may watch Travis' YouTube video to see the above instructions step-by-step
