Happy New Year indeed!

With the New Year comes even more ideas and initiatives to make sure we are doing everything we can to improve you and your traffic asset’s experience with the ThinkAction Network.  Here are just a few items which might make your New Year merrier:

Relaunch: It’s that time again – time to relaunch the Toluna recruitment campaigns!  As of January 1st, you will be able to find most of our temporarily paused campaigns back in your accounts, ready for action.  These campaigns cover a global scale; from our traditional double opt-in campaigns, to the double opt-in plus survey completion. These relaunched offers include:

Toluna – USA (DOI plus Survey)
Toluna – Canada (DOI plus Survey)
Toluna – Brazil (DOI plus Survey)
Toluna – Netherlands (DOI and DOI plus Survey)
Toluna – Belgium (DOI and DOI plus Survey)

Redesign: We would like to inform you that we are in the process of redesigning our Toluna panel community website, along with, the Opinion Surveys look and functionality.  In our testing, both designs and technological updates have shown increased conversion rates and higher ROIs. We will share the exact launch dates of both redesigns later in the month. 

New countries: As you have seen over the years, we are always looking for new countries to expand our offerings. For example, Opinion Surveys is due to launch in Austria within the next few weeks. With this in mind, we are interested in hearing what your geographic needs are when it comes to your traffic. If we do not currently host a campaign in a country you have traffic in, please let us know. If we have survey volume in the specified country, we will be happy to develop a campaign for you and your traffic. 

As you can see, we are interested in building not only a better partnership with you, our valued partners, but with your traffic as well. We are highly focused on the user experience and we hope you have seen our efforts paying off through improved conversions and increased monthly earnings.

ThinkAction Tip: Search Engine Marketing and Optimization

The ThinkAction Network is making it a priority to ensure flawless user experience.  With this in mind, we want to encourage our partners to use the techniques available in the Internet marketing industry to drive more traffic to their websites. Throughout 2012, we will be using our Facebook and Twitter accounts to provide articles with tips on Search Engine Marketing and Search Engine Optimization. In simple terms, search engine marketing (SEM) is a form of Internet marketing that seeks to promote websites by increasing their visibility in search engine result pages through the use of paid placement, contextual advertising and paid inclusion.  Search engine optimization (SEO) "optimizes" website content to achieve a higher ranking in search results with the use of specific keywords or links related to the website. By driving more traffic to your website, you will be able to increase your monthly earnings by monetizing that traffic with our exclusive campaigns.  Stay tuned for our social media updates!

Thank you for your support!

As you may remember, we, on the ThinkAction team, wanted to do something positive for the community during the holidays with your help.  In exchange for each of your “likes” on Facebook, we donated a dollar to the global efforts of a great cause called Unicef.  Although we did not quite reach our goal, we have decided to make the full $1,000 donation to this cause regardless. Thank you to all who participated. You have our sincere gratitude for your efforts pertaining to this charitable event.

As always, thank you for your partnership and for reviewing our monthly newsletter. If you have any questions on the content of the ThinkAction Newsletter, or any suggestions/comments, please write to use at publishers@thinkaction.com.

Happy New Year and warm wishes from,

The ThinkAction Network Team
