In most of the cases, paid traffic works better, if you are well skilled in it. This question depends of the niche, the competition actions, the right keywords, used in the paid traffic and so and so. Always do A/B test to make sure what works best for you.
I would go with Organic traffic. DIFFERENCE: 1) Paid traffic is FAST, but won't last longer (unless you could invest thousands!). 2) Organic traffic is SLOW, but could drive AMAZING results in the near future! 3) Paid traffic could lead to visitors that are not even interested in your offer (they could only visit the ad). 4) Organic traffic means that people are really interested in your offer/service/content, etc. Of course organic traffic means that you need to work much, much harder, but I think that the final results are worth the time and efforts!
If you have money to spend, nothing like it. Organic traffic is long term job, you need to keep adding and updating fresh content.
Both have their Pros & Cons.... Paid Traffic: Pros: it's quick easy to set up and forget (i.e. you don't continually have to work to build up back links to your site) Cons: Costly - you have to continually pump money into your ad to keep it running Organic Traffic: Pros: Can be cheaper Longer lasting results - even after you 'slow down' your marketing efforts.. You can build up a brand reputation Cons: Takes ages to get to desired level of visitors Requires work & continued promotion
Organic Traffic is best.Though you will get quick visitor from Paid Traffic , But they won't last longer.
I would always say that organic traffic works best, although it's somewhat paid traffic as well because you will be shelling out cash to do some work on your site but it's much more consistent and long term. Paid traffic doesn't always work out, you will have to really know your stuff to get into that mess.
Both are good. Organic traffic is always best for long term business. Once your sell will increase automatically. If you do shot time or seasonal business, you may choose paid traffic.
In my opinion both of them are good for business, while the Organic ones tend to retain longer than that come from the free traffic.
