Paid traffic is it worth it ? You may see the ads around the net 10′000 visitors to your site for only $2.99, Well alot of people I see starting out on the net with a website go great this will help my website so guy and buy it with out knowing that most of that traffic comes from porn sites or pop under sites. So what real quality does this traffic ad to your site non because most of these people are paid to visit your website and worst of all that traffic is againist google adsense’s TOS so you will be banned from the program. So if thinking about using paid traffic forget it !
The only paid for traffic worth any money is that that's targeted. AdWords and on a lesser level MSN and Yahoo. It's knowing what to do with the traffic when you get it that makes it worth paying for. Any other offers like the one you point out are worthless, and if you have AdSense and stuff, can get you banned.
indeed, paid traffic is a total waste of time because it comes from unreliable sources. 99% of the traffic wouldnt even consider your websites second page let alone your products.
Its not worth is because if your site is monetized by pay per click or pay per impression programs its against their rules. If you're trying to sell something on your site... its not worth the shot either since they're either bots (like someone said) or very low quality visitors.
Unfortunately, speaking from my experience, I can only add the same - paid traffic is not worth it. Definitely.
Why would you want to pay people to visit your site? Surely you want people to visit because they like it. If it was a forum and you were paying people to stat threads and discuss then it might be different, but just visits intuitively seems like a waste of time.
so this is a thread where 10 people are singing the same old song we do know paid traffic of that sort is shit, there is no need to say it 10x times. and at the end of the day this thread is worth 0cents
