I'm just curious as there are lots of people "selling" traffic like $10 for 10,000 visitors and all that. How does it work? Are they paying people all around the world to actually go to your URL once a day or something? I know most of you will say it's not worth it, but if they are real visitors, why not? I mean 10-20% of them might actually like your blog, or like your Facebook fan page? I'm pretty much stuck at 4,000 ish visitors a day and trying to explore other options (though this may sound like a bad idea) Any opinion on this?
Most of them are bot, proxy or those PTC traffic, they are actually considered as low quality traffic, or saying most of them just spend 15 seconds on your website without read your site
I've used them a couple of times early on when I was first getting into internet marketing. It's fun to see your numbers go up, but it really is a terrible practice in general. I would much rather have 10 targeted visitors than 100 visitors purchased from traffic sellers. I've found that most are not real people, so if you think that there is any chance of getting someone to like your website, it is going to be a slim to none chance. It might look good for your analytics to have the additional visitors, but it only bloats your stats with false information. No longer will you know your true bounce rate, you don't know if your funnel is working properly, you will have a spike in direct traffic more than likely, so it really just throws your stats off for no great reason.
I sell targeted visitors and if you have a nice looking landing page especially a nice looking e-store it can work out really well, the traffic comes mostly from pop unders and parked domains so the visits are real and targeted For example - you run a golf e-store that sells clubs etc you buy 10,000 targeted visits and select "golf" as the category, all the traffic is going to come from golf related domains so the chance of someone thinking "oh this is a nice looking site, i wonder how much there clubs are" is pretty high so getting a few sales becomes a lot easier. The problem is a lot of people think they can buy 10,000 visits and have them sent to a bog standard looking CPA offer, its not 2005 and people are tech savvy and are not going to fall for it Regards
Honestly, if you want high-quality traffic to your site(s) without breaking the bank try Facebook ads. It's pretty easy, you can select your target audience, and it doesn't have the learning curve of Google AdWords. Good luck! Stephanie
Yep! - just remember dont pay what facebook recommends, drop it by half - if you dont get any impressions slowly put the price up
Don't do it. The only "good form of traffic", as in will convert and be worth your time, is organic. SEO, both on-page and off-page, is how to get it.
You just dnt need to visitors just click at your link.You need them to stay at your site as more as possible because the time the visitors spend at your site matters.
stay away from traffic sellers, trust me it is a load of bs. the only way buying traffic has been effective for me is if you are buying facebook fans or twitter followers simply because it makes you a more credible business if you have 100000 followers verses 100 if you have more questions feel free to e-mail me good luck
Right, the only "good form of traffic", as in will convert and be worth your time, is organic. SEO, both on-page and off-page, is how to get it.

There's quite a few reputable traffic networks out there, that do sell real traffic and not just bot traffic.
