Best place to buy targeted traffic?

    Where is the best place to buy and sell targeted website traffic in the weight loss niche?

    As an experiment, just wanted to create a one page review site of a popular weight loss product.

    Then market it by targeting high ranking sites(direct advertising) within that specific weight loss niche to bring in highly targeted traffic, to see if it will convert well.

    Thinking of starting with a small budget of $200-$400 a month.

    Sweet.

    Why would you want to throw your money away? Most of those targeted traffic gigs are pretty much fake. They will deliver you a bunch of bot traffic, nothing more.

    With that budget you will be better off (far better off) with AdWords or AdCenter.

    Seriously, I'd highly advise you against buying any targeted traffic.

    I totally agree with qwikad.com and I will suggest you to try FB ads. Some of the online marketers doing just great on FB with the weight loss products.

    Yes, I would recommend Facebook or Bing. I really like how flexible they are and they are less competitive in general than Adwords. Weight loss is general enough that you could do very well. Good advice above.

    You can buy Solo ads related to weight loss niche. You can ask in any forum I guess. A place where you can buy is Warrior Forum. Most of them are IM niche but you can ask who is selling weight loss niche Ads and some people do. Good luck!!!

    Well-designed website, perfectly written sales page or other superior features your business might have; they all just account for nothing if you don’t have the real visitors. It is very well known that the very first step to making a sale is to let your customers know that you do exist. It is not rocket science to know that for you to sell anything on your site requires visitors otherwise you will be minting your own visits. Therefore for you to drive these potential buyers to your site , you need to advertise and advertise and advertise…but with the current global economic meltdown most small websites are finding it very hard to be competitive, as advertising is getting more and more expensive.

    If it has an affiliate program with income opportunity you could try out some traffic exchanges. People there are typically interested in income opportunity, traffic tools, and marketing type stuff.

    I have never done anything except spend money or waste time when I have gotten involved with either buying traffic or with affiliate programs. Of course, everything is highly dependent on what you are selling, but I would look at other options first. I am not thrilled with AdWords and am interested in one of the comments above about Bing being less competitive. May have to get a campaign back up there; it has been years since I tried them.

    With the rise usage of social media, I would recommend creating a facebook page and twitter account for your website. Customers love the fact that they can access and get updates from you frequently and directly, however, do not spam in any way. It will stop people from being attracted to your website. With the money of $200-400, you could invest in Adwords, Bingads or Facebook ads. They have the best source of targeted traffic as you can choose your own keywords. Facebook ads is one of the best place to advertise for your weight loss niche.

    We have to look at different points when buying traffic. you should know how to choose the right one, so that your campaign will be most effective and you will be able to generate real traffic which will sum up in sales which is actually what you needed in the first place.

    Facebook & Bing.

    I don't recommend 7Search.

    I think it's wise for any business to build a Facebook Page via ads. It helps you to connect & retain your traffic, allowing you to market to them over & over.

    Email VS Facebook - the open rate for emails can be quite pathetic.

    Just my 2 cents worth.

    Quite a few good ideas here, but I would recommend if you're on YouTube that you can create videos or have them created and Target the traffic that you're after you can get thousands of video views as well for the budget that you have. You could then repurpose your videos and turn them into blog posts and get even more targeted traffic.

    I would start with Facebook Ads. I've had some good success promoting things there. Just use the post engagement and fine-tune your target audience. Good luck with your advertising.
