    Stay away from buying traffic. The quality of the traffic most of these services provide isn't very good and could consist of only bots visiting your site. You would be much better off buying advertising on a related established site or spending it on another advertising method.

    I agree with Crusader.

    I personally tested a couple of services badk in few years, and they are only CRAP. Usually they will be bots, but if the seller is tricky, you will get different IPs, but their stay time will be less than 1 sec - WHY ? becuase your wite will most probably open in a popup, and everyone closes the popups soion as it appears..

    so my suggestoin will be to stay away, and if you are interested in paying, then get a link from a site which has similar traffic to your site.

    be careful when buying links as well, becuase sometimes all of their sites have 1 IP :) which is useless.. I cannot comment on the site you posted, may be someone else has tested their service.

    if your thinking of buying targetted traffic the only place worth considering are PPC programs such as Google adwords, Yahoo search marketing and Miva

    You can get some better advices if you tell us what is this site about.

    For example a ecommerce site should buy CPC advertising, while a directory should buy text links, etc.

    In any way stay away from 'targeted visitors' programs. They do not worth it, plus the most of them are scams (they use bots to produce traffic)

    Even the traffic sites that do not use bots basically buy pop up advertising in bulk adn then just pop your site up. So, basically you are buying pop ups for $8 cpm coming from sites you haven't approved and most likely have nothing to do with your product. So, i'd agree with the ppc stuff, at least there you have some control of what people see before they come to your site.
