I am interested in getting some traffic from this site: http://traffictaxi.net Anyone here used their service before? How is the quality of traffic? Thx
I ordered less traffic from them than I did from you and yet I have already received more traffic from them than you.
Hi all, I can't post a new thread it seems, probably because I haven't posted enough here yet or because I'm new, so I'll post it here, since this thread interested me in the first place... I'm looking for traffic coming from real US visitors who clicked on a banner and weren't forced or paid to visit my website; I can give 1 cent/click otherwise the ROI is not good. A free trial would be appreciated. If this works I will surely continue with you and may spend quite a lot everyday eventually. I understand 1 cent/click is not a lot, however for some who get tons and tons of traffic everyday getting 1 cent when a visitor leaves can be better than nothing I would say... apunjak2, I may be interested in your offer, can you PM me the details please? Where is the traffic coming from and how much you charge? I used GoClick and was really disappointed... I read that the traffic is coming from ptr sites, which probably means "paid to read" if I'm not mistakened. However some wrote that GoClick used to be good. I only hope that they will get back to what they used to offer. And it's over for me with them, for now at least, until they change their ways. So hope to hear from someone who can offer me traffic like I need. Forget Adwords for what I want to do right now, the US is way too saturated and to get traffic to my page I need to spend way too much, and pay much over the ROI I would get. So if it's possible to get what I asked for in this message please let me know or direct me to a website that can offer this. Thanks.
For everyones information, traffictaxi is adversals official sales arm. They sell full screen popunder ads. I have tried them, I can't say if they are good or not but I think it might have had some positive effects, the traffic is dirt cheap. Oh.. And I forgot to say this, all other sites that have that exactly same looking form, are traffictaxi resellers.
I have just tried taxitraffic - only part way through my first test - results =0 - Every year I have a go at buying some traffic like this - Each year its the same result but i think its only $35 why not give it a go... - Even through the traffic is so cheap - its not even worth the bandwidth that it consumes. From all my experiences - even though I seem to never learn - Stay away from these cheapo traffic services and cheapo PPC - you always get what you pay for - some nicer stats in your log files and nothing else - If anyone thinks I am being to harsh and think Taxi Traffic is worth anything - post here and let us know. MY RECOMMENDATION - STAY AWAY FROM TAXITRAFFIC.NET and ALL ITS RESELLERS.
Yeah, you are definitely being too harsh. Whether or not the traffic 'works' for you or not totally depends on what you are trying to gain from it... better looking stats, ad clicks, leads, conversions, consumer awareness, etc.. So for you to say, 'well it didn't work for me so nobody should use it' is unfair.
The best thing I can say is read up before you use a service like this... A little help to make sure the traffic you buy it put to good use: 4 Keys To A Successful Campaign (excerpted from the article found on www.HitMyth.com) 1. QUANTITY. Because you will be hitting a lot of different people, it comes down to a numbers game. How many people will you hit that are interested in your offer at the time your ad “pops†under or redirects from the site they are browsing? If they are interested at a later date and your campaign is no longer running, then you will have in a sense helped your competition who is there later, at the right moment. So if you are buying guaranteed traffic, be sure to buy as many as you can afford to 2. LANDING PAGE. The landing page is whatever web page people see first in the actual pop-under. This can be any page, whether it’s the home page or a custom sales page. Most often advertisers use their home page as their landing page. BIG MISTAKE! I recommend that you have a page created just for your offer. Make sure you have a great headline that stands out and can be read and understood in about 2 seconds. It amazes me how many people use their homepage as their URL. When my company offers to create a landing page for our customers, they are always pleased with both the ad and the results. Some seeing increases up to a 67.5% response over previously run campaigns. Remember, your home page is used to navigate people to all the many different parts of your site. There is not usually any one specific theme or offer but, rather multiple offers, animations, buttons, and a lot of different paths to take. This is way too much for a person to comprehend in just 2 seconds. So since most people didn’t ask to see your ad in the first place, the subconscious response is: “Since I didn’t ask to see this site and there is no distinct offer, there might as well be no offer at all.†Click close [x]. [==SUCCESS TIP==] Make a great landing page that directs people where you want them to go. I assure you it will increase your response. K.I.S.S. - Keep it short and sweet. Don’t try to close the sale, get the sign-up, etc in the first 2 seconds. Be compelling, get the viewers attention, and draw them into your offer. Take them through a sales “processâ€, not a sales “slam†- you will have much better results. 3. APPLES-TO-APPLES. One frustration common among advertisers is the difference between the response to a pop campaign and a pay per click campaign. There are many, many reasons for this difference, but a main reason is they are not the same type of advertising. One is active, the other is passive. Remember we talked about that earlier in this article? In general pay-per-click (Overture Precision Match www.overture.com, GOOGLE ADWORDS www.Google.com, Find What www.Findwhat.com, etc) will always yield a higher conversion rate than a pop campaign. It is also much more expensive and difficult to track to use this form of advertising. One key reason there is better response rate in PPC (a passive form of advertising) is these are people who took the time to type in a phrase into a search engine and click a link. They are actively looking for your service. Pop type ads are active forms of advertising and show up on a related site, but the viewer, who is passive about your service at the moment, was in the midst of doing something else. This is the same reason Yellow Page inquiries are more expensive, and generally will yield higher response than say Radio Advertising. This is due to the different focus of the viewers at the time of seeing the ad. =================================== KEY POINT: DO NOT compare your pop ad results to your PPC results, they will NEVER match, nor should they. That would be an apples-to-oranges comparison. Both methods should be implemented as a part of a well-rounded marketing plan. =================================== 4. FOLLOW-UP. This is where over 97% of web sites miss it. They make an ad, they buy the traffic, but don’t tell people what to do when they arrive. Here are some important questions to ask about any web site being advertised: 1. What happens after they click your ad and arrive? 2. Can they navigate the site easily to find what they are looking for? 3. Is your site compelling? 4. Does it draw them in deeper? 5. Does the site itself SELL? 6. Are People encouraged to contact you? 7. Is it easy to contact you? 8. Is it easy to buy?
