Getting unique visitors by paying money.

    I was reading various gigs in Fiverr where people offer to get unique visitors for 30 days. I wonder whether it is wise to buy such services? Any idea how they can guarantee such unique visits?
    Thanks.

    They will send you unique bot hits alright. But those hits isn't traffic, they are just that: bot hits. They are useless.

    I would avoid buying all / any traffic gigs on fiverr if I were you, especially the ones that claim that they will send you unique visitors for 30 days. It's hogwash.

    @qwikad.com is exactly right. However, let's assume that they would, in fact, send you real people for a fee. How are they getting those people to visit your site? Are they paying them? Are they tricking them? Are they forcing them? Whatever the method that they would use to get a lot of people to visit your site, how could such traffic be useful for you?

    Stop thinking about sending "traffic" to your site and think about how you can drive "buyers" to your site. Anything else is a complete waste of time and effort.

    Buying traffic from Fiverr is like telling
    Google that you're running a spamming
    website. Traffic from Fiverr are bot traffic
    and can get you into Google net. Better way to
    buy traffic is either you buy a FB or Bing ADs
    since they cheap and will get targeted traffics
    to your website.

    Avoid it. If you are looking for paid traffic look at bing Ads, google adwords or media buys.

    Unique visitors are worthless.

    Targeted visitors are priceless.

    Would you rather get 10,000 unique visitors that care nothing about your site and market, or 100 who are passionate about it?

    Those 100 will turn into far more $$$ than the 10,000.

    Get targeted traffic my friend. Go that extra mile and build a list because that is what will be your net worth in the end.

    Nothing less.

    Build a list and you are all green.

    The right words has been spoken, so i only wanted to ask why would you ever need those ? If your page doesnt have any worthwhile content, those hits would be worthless.

    Hit the nail on the head, the old saying if it is too good to be true it probably is. I have read numerous threads on various forums stating that Fiverr gigs for web traffic, social traffic or SEO are a total waste and you are better off burning a $5 bill.

    I heard that Fiverr offered services that are in cheap cost that's why it is popular. The traffic you buy will not convert at all. :D

    I agree with what you have said. If you want high quality visitors to your website that have potential to convert, the amount of money to be spent will definitely not be cheap.

    It's not a bad idea though to use Fiverr got get say maybe a 100 new likes to a new fanpage? Of course it will completely random untargeted unengaged traffic but it will make the page look a bit better to new visitors but at the same time not seem like an unusually high number of likes.

    The best way to get traffic to your website is to do quality posts on your own website, do guest posts on other blogs and make sure you stay connected with your audience on social media. Asking for traffic from third party visitors is very bad, specially in long term. Always keep in mind, Google is one step ahead in this game, so the best way to succeed is to play by its rules. Focus on generating quality content and Google will reward you.
