    Hey!

    I have a question. I would like to buy targeted traffic for my website.
    Do you know where to buy it? I mean I have found many places in Google, but I'm just not sure about those sites. Most sites offer million targeted views, but have Alexa over 2 mil and PR 0.. It just doesn't sound right.

    If you have suggestions or your own experience, please write them here.
    I would really appreciate it!

    Regards,
    Jaan

    It sounds like buying traffic gets you to your success fast - but then, is it trustworthy? ... Why not go the slower, surer road? I think it pays off.
    I also think on the way opportunities come up that fasten the process.

    Almost everyone who dreams to be a successful internet marketer resort to buying traffic and though it’s best to take things on a slower pace I also don’t think there’s any harm purchasing them. And so, even if you buy or not, it’s still the quality of the content that matters to the readers. Readers will pay a frequent visit if they think that your site is good for them.

    I've never had any luck with buying bulk traffic. Even when the seller promised "targeted" traffic, I still made no sales. I guess conversions might be possible, depending on what type of site you're running and from whom you buy the traffic, but I personally have never had any luck.

    Use PPC if you really want fast Targeted Traffic.

    It's one of the most effective paid sources.

    As said above though you are better off learning to MASTER
    traffic without paying for it. You can learn to drive FREE traffic.

    Your question is a smart one in that you ask the "right" question. Buying traffic is a complete waste of money if it is not targeted.

    But even if someone tells you then can sell you targeted traffic, how well will it be targeted? Is it targeted to your niche? your sub niche? your extremely specific niche? your target keywords? Is it targeted to your specific demographics?

    The point is, it is asking a lot to have a third party with no knowledge of your product/service to get the targeting exactly right. Anyone who says they can get you targeted traffic should, at a minimum, be asking you to tell them the answers to these questions.

    And you can get your own perfectly targeted traffic, by using PPC to buy your traffic, as recommended above by cyberlight.

    most of these buying traffic sites is a waste of time and full of scams, if your are going to buy traffic i would think about banner ads, ppc, or pay per view

    Paid traffic is typically used just to boost numbers. Unfortunately people in the business of selling websites might use a service like that to inflate their numbers. Unfortunately for those of us building legitimate websites who want real visitors that are interested in what we have to offer on our websites can't simply go buy traffic and expect it to convert.

    My recommendation is to look into PPC (do a lot of research before jumping in) and then maybe look at how you can get your name more well-known in whatever community you are trying to be a part of.

    Exactly...You may have great numbers, but is your paid traffic actually buying anything? No.

    PPC can definitely be tough, but it can give you some immediate traffic, while you build your SEO campaign. The real key is to be high enough in the SERP's so that you don't need PPC.

    PPC is usually the only road that you have available to you. Buying targeted traffic from sellers is usually untrustworthy and not going to make sales like what you're looking for.

    I prefer to stay away from buying traffic because it can be punished by Google and I hardly believe that paid traffic will pay off.

    PPV traffic can be effective but it just depends where you buy it from.
