Hello, I believe I have a good and highly converting site, so I'm considering buying targeted and good quality (meaning real visitors, not by popups/unders, etc.) traffic from a company. I'm not interested in those companies charging $2/1000 visitors, as they are mostly automatically generated, or those using traffic exchanges (I use AdSense). Am I just wasting my time, or are there actual good companies that I could be buying targeted web traffic from? If you tried one of those, what was your experience? Thanks
But that's a little too expensive... when I say I think my website converts well, I mean from actual visitor to AdSense clicker or someone ending up on an affiliate link... so buying traffic would be the logical way to go. I don't think I can profit from paying about $.50/visitor with a PPC, but if I pay even $.01 / visitor (which is an exaggeration in this market anyways) I think I could profit from that. By the way, in my earlier post I meant $2/10,000 visitors, not $2/1000 visitors
I tried Facebook and man their clicks are super expensive and do NOT convert at all. I would suggest getting a voucher and trying Adwords.
on AdWords, how much can I expect to pay per click, if my site is about a niche (forex trading)? is $.50/click reasonable? It'd still be waaay to much for me, though. I want a way to get a targeted, effective human visitor for no more than $.05 each. I'm checking out engineseeker.com, they seem to be reputable but say they use popunders... doesn't everybody just block them?
Not many of those buy 1000 hits for $x are very reliable - believe me I've tried a few on my IM journey. If you're paying for traffic, Adwords is still probably your best bet. Now, Adwords offers a facility where you can pick and cgoose the websites where your ads are seen. It's a very good way of getting targeted traffic pretty quickly. Yes, Adwords is expensive, but you get keyword targeted traffic at the end of the day. You mentioned forex - I have a forex site, and I do not actually use adwords for it because it's far too expensive. You need to really generate some of the better free traffic solutions out there. You probably already know forex is a high paying niches - there are PPL programs paying $50+ per lead so as you can imagine the competition on Adwords is pretty fierce. RE free traffic generation methods - things like Youtube, articles, social marketing will generate a good amount of traffic for you.
Some popunders cannot be blocked. Ask them if they are the type they use. Plus, on programs like that, you pay only if the popunder actually loads.
Have you tried Adwords, but at a rate of, say, 10 cents? Granted, it will take much longer to see a sale, because your ads won't be shown as much, but if you add it up at the end of the month.... Have you tried contacting webmasters who have low rates to put your ad in their sites? Here are the top pay-per-click services: TextLinkAds, TrafficSwarm, CasaleMedia.com, FastClick, BurstMedia, FC, TribalFusion, Azoogle, CPA Empire, GlobalInteractive, AdBrite, Adengage, RealMedia, Kontera, Avnads, ValueClick, Vibrant, RealTechNetwork, Dotomi…. Below are other search engines to consider. Most may not work, but try them anyway. Think volume! No matter what site you advertise in, search engines or not, making, say, $25 a month from one site may not be much, but if you do it with 50 sites....

The best traffic is free traffic from the search engines. Converts better and is easily achieved Bought traffic is just never targeted enough. What's the point of having 10,000 people visit your site if none of them is interested in your content?
I bought some traffic bulks. From ebay with different users. 2 results. I bought 250,000 uniques for £7 and only got 19,000 but was still happy. I also bought 1,800 and got 1,800 and then rebought a few times.
Yes, in fact I'm writing quite a lot of articles now, and optimizing everything for social bookmarking
But on an adsense site you have to be careful as the hits can't be generated by traffic exchange programs, right? Do you recall if the one you rebought from generated traffic that way? Did anyone here get banned from adsense for that? thanks this is helpful
I know I know... I'm getting $110 per signup+deposit. None so far because I've just started, but I'm getting a great clickthrough rate So in the end, once I have enough data and see if it looks profitable, I might end up using adwords anyways, even if I'm not selling anything on my site.
