I have freebies site(not listing, acctuall freebies) and i want to purchase some traffic cheap. I just found mailing list ad on free stuff site with 200 000 subscribers for 20$ but I am not sure how much traffic will it send to me. Purchased it and will see. Do you know any other sources as this? Interseted in text links, newsletters, or anything but atleast semi targeted, not junk traffic.
You can find a bunch of .02 - .05 per targetted visitor from sources like adbrite, etc.... .01 would be very, very tough for anything targetted.
Or, rather than buying traffic with purchased lists (not a great idea in a marketing sense ever anyway), try using a variety of PR tactics (press releases, media advisories, etc.). Just do something newsworthy with the site, write a press release, and send it to a few decent wires and distribution services. Even if you spent $400 to get top placement on your release date, if you really made sure it was a newsworthy release and get picked up by even just one major online media outlet relevant to your site, you can see more than enough visitors coming in to make it much less than $.01 per visitor. The key is just doing something that really makes your site different than others like it. Jenn
One of my business partners has a traffic reseller account. This utilizes popunders as the traffic source. He mainly uses the cheap, untargeted hits to lower his Alexa ranking or "gives away" the free visitors as promotions to get people to do what he wants. (Join my newsletter and get X amount of visitors free, etc.) He does offer targeted though. I think worldwide plus category, US and US plus category. His current rates are under $5 per thousand for US plus category. If interested, send me a PM and I can put you in touch with him. Dawn
It is not aboit budget it is about higher profits. Thanks for suggestions. I might try press release.
To people who sent me offers to sell services or traffic: please don't! I wanted advice not to buy something from you.
plugs at popular site are quite effective sometimes.. but as always advertise in popular site is quite expensive.
Well it would be very expensive to experiment with ads on popular sites. Anyway my site will be in one mailing list with 200 000 subscribers in Wednesday. That cost 20$ and I will see how it turns out.
In one of my Adwords campaign I have set the Content bid to $0.01 and I'm getting about 50-100 visitors per $0.01 ... So, I say it is possible to get one cent visitors
Adwords and a mailing list is two totally different things. Adwords is where fresh fishes are caught.
Im buying 0.01$ per click traffic on adbrite...and Im buying 2k unique a day... Cheap traffic is very possible...
Adbrite is a great source to buy cheap quality traffic. Adwords can also provide cheap traffic if you choose your keywords effectively.
Well I have one key word on adwords with 0.01$ and that brings 150+ visitors per day. Adbrite haven't got any good sites on my topic. Mailing list is going today so I will see how it goes. 20$ for 200 000 subscribers, I can't wait to see results. Will let you know if it's good.
how did your newsletter advertising go? i am very interested in seeing how many visits you got on the first day
