    Hey every one,

    If an individual is simply trying to get a lot of unique visitors to his site and is not concerned with them converting or clicking on anything, does it matter if the source is from bots, ptc, or real humans?


    Thanks,
    Theo

    It depends, if you put adsense on your site, some of the fake traffic / bots might be harmful for your adsense account :)

    If you just looking for lowering alexa-rank, getting traffic, etc.. bots / fake traffic doesn't harm you at all.


    It does matter to your site if you using REAL traffic, the visitors might be interested with your website :)

    I PM you details but never get the reply :)

    Hmm bot is just good to increase your Alexa, but I will still say not to go for it, it won't help much and also once the traffic stops, your Alexa will drop so its really of no use.. Also bot traffic = no conversion, not even a single person seeing your site, so what is good in getting that??

    For PTC, its also from Real human (so chances to get conversions/members etc), but still its a "forced traffic" and thats not very good results..

    But still I do thing except traffic from search engines (or ads like adwords) every other Traffic provides almost same results lke PTCs (or even less but haven't seen more than it lol) like expired domains, pop-ups, pop-unders etc... And this thing I have seen by myself as I both sell and also buy a lot of traffic (all kinds as like you I also look for hits only but still I never went for bot traffic)..

    So don't go for bots, rest pop-up traffic is mostly cheap, and at least better that bot traffic :)
