Newbie Traffic Trade & Toplist Qs

[jerkit]

These are going to be dumb questions.. but hey I'm semi-new at this..

How does one trade traffic? What're toplists etc? Is there a resource on the web where I can read about this so as not to bother too many people?

I run a link list / tgp combo which in the next few weeks I will be splitting into a standalone link list and a standalone tgp, just trying to get the right backbone in place to trade traffic.

I basically want to know the ins and outs before I get too far along and have a major headache/revamping on me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
