Would you pay for a rotating text link?

People pay loads to Proxy.org They have 6000 links in rotation.

 

for backlinks no.
for traffic yes.

 

wouldn't that make it not worthwhile then?...

and it does give visits ...just not a super big amount (yet)

/me runs off to look at timeline for site...

hmm...traffic...traffic...hopefully increasing May 1st...but we'll see

 

Ok, say you got 250 uniques per day... and 100 links rotating on a page: that averages out to be 2.5 unique page views per day, 75 per month.

Obviously it won't work out quite like that, but just go with me for a sec...

If you get that 5k uniques per day, with 100 links, that's 50 uniques per day - 1500 per month.

I can see people paying for 1.5k uniques per month, but not for 75. If you got the 5k daily visitors I would probably pay about $15-40 dollars per month.... depending on how targeted the traffic was.

If the traffic is very highly targeted and pre-qualified.... and it converts at 20% (lol) then I would pay you about $2k per month

so you'd pay 15-40 per month for 5,000 but not .75(1)-$2 for 250?...works out to be the same thing...

though i could also set it up to have like 10 links, that pull from a pool of a couple hundred...

I figured this wouldn't sound very good with such low traffic...but when traffic increases...at least to 5K a day...most people would find it a more attractive offer you think?

 

Sure - more traffic = more attention.

Yep, I would pay $40 per month... if you get 5k uniques.... AND they are laser targeted AND convert on my sales page at 20%

Only for traffic ... Matt Cutts style links ... the site selling the link would need thousands of hits per day and be sending meaningful traffic my way for me to keep paying for the link!

 

How much would you pay? (On average per 1000 hits)

 

For short term traffic, its cool. But then, 50 is too much unless each takes turn about every other 10 minutes. I especially like rotating ads that will display your link with every other search.

 

I would, however only if the site had a lot of traffic (enough to ensure the link was actually shown )

 

would that be a couple thousand a day to you? (that's what a few other people have said)...

 

Rotating? No.. very unstable and it isn't good for SEO. Rotating would only work great to image ads -> exposure and branding of logo.

 

I would if I benefited from it.

 

Not worth paying...

 

could you possibly explain your reasoning? Same as everyone else?

now...what if there was 5000 hits per day?...worth it then?
