You will need some programming knowledge and cleverness though.
I bet I could have that shit sending at least 20 sales a day if not 50 or more.

Trading traffic will piss off an interested buyer more than anything. He wants to see what he clicked on. The surfer just looking for more free content does not give a shit. You have to find something very special to flip him. Same goes for people traded to you. If I walked into a shop and found myself in a different shop to the one I wanted I would be out of there immediately and never go back
Also look at the galleries you have. How many are getting people to go to the site, how many of those sites are really performing for you. No traffic numbers don't guaranty sales. It's just the first step.
