Can Adsense help me increase my site's traffic?

[WritingFreak]

I am a total newbie as you can read in the title of my post.:o Can anyone confirm this to me? I am planning to get Adsense with the belief that it can increase traffic to my site. Is this really the case? :confused: Thanks in advance!

I dont think so.

Try these to get traffic
1. article submission
2. directory submission
3. press release
...

I have read that it can help with spidering your site because the AdSense spiders your site each time a visitor lands on the page so it knows what ads to display and I read somewhere that Google uses this spider information as it gives a number of details about the content of your page etc...

Not sure from my own experience though as I have not tested this my self.

Actually you probably do better with Adwords to increase your site traffic. Adsense makes use of your traffic in order to gain you income.

Uhh, it might raise wasted bandwidth, but unless you consider GoogleBot as traffic. No.

No, Adwords (http://adwords.google.com) can.

I think you meant Adwords not Adsense. Adsense does not bring any increase in traffic
