About this plugin
Traffman connects your WordPress site(s) to a content traffic exchange network. Your site displays a block containing content and links published by other member sites, and in return your own content is shown on theirs. There are no campaigns, no bids and no payments for placements – participation is accounted for in points. The plugin adds a configurable block to your site. You choose where it appears – sidebar, inside post content, or footer – and adjust its appearance to match your theme. The block is rendered client-side via JavaScript, so no markup is added to the server-rendered HTML of your pages. You can place up to four blocks on a page. Only the posts you explicitly select are shared with the network. Nothing is sent until you choose it. Topic filtering lets you specify the content niches and languages you want to receive content from, and a blacklist excludes words and site domains you never want to see. A demo mode fills the blocks with sample content, so you can see how they look on the page before your site joins the exchange. Using the plugin requires a free Traffman account and API credentials, which you connect in the plugin settings. Features Block placement via the block editor, the site editor, visual builders, widgets, or shortcodes Appearance settings to match your theme Targeting by language and content niche, plus stop-word and site-domain blacklists Per-post control over what you share with the network Demo mode for previewing the block before the site joins the exchange Content, points and traffic statistics inside wp-admin Works with both standard WordPress installations and Multisite networks External service This plugin connects to the Traffman content exchange network, a third-party service operated by Traffman. The plugin will not function without this connection. The plugin sends the following data to the service: Your site URL and registered site identifier Your API credentials, for authentication The URL of the page currently being viewed, used to select relevant content The posts you have selected for the exchange Targeting settings you configure in the plugin The service returns a set of content and links, which the plugin renders in the block. The block itself is filled by a script loaded from the service. When a block is displayed or a recommendation is clicked, the service records the event together with the visitor’s IP address, which it uses to count each visitor once and to detect artificial impressions and clicks. Because that happens on your website, the service asks you to describe the block in your own privacy notice and to obtain any consent your local law requires.
