    yea, I have tried the PPC's. Don't really like them for this application.

    I want to buy casino banners or casino traffic.

    I tried google for Casino Traffic, but I get sites like these above.

    What are some places I can buy it?

    You could probably find more sites by posting on webmaster forums asking to buy links.

    It seems like everyone has a casino site tucked away somewhere.

    lmao @ casualnerd.

    So true.

    But a good backlinking structure will provide you with some pretty kickass traffic if done correctly.

    As for purchasing traffic, I presume you have looked at some of the smaller ppc engines?

    Do you have a link or resource you recommend for the way to do backlinking correctly?

    Try emailing those online poker bloggers to put your link there.

    Be careful when purchasing casino traffic... because some of the traffic that you purchase could be about as worthwhile as you visiting your own page thousands of times. I have found that most traffic purchased from those sources to be staged rather than real traffic. Watch yourself and try to purchase from a reliable source.

    Do a search for casino review sites and casino resource guides. Those would probably be good places to advertise once you do a search re how many sites link to them.

    Thanks for the all tips guys. I really appreciate it.

    Regarding this:

    "Be careful when purchasing casino traffic... because some of the traffic that you purchase could be about as worthwhile as you visiting your own page thousands of times. I have found that most traffic purchased from those sources to be staged rather than real traffic. Watch yourself and try to purchase from a reliable source."

    I hear ya... this traffic I bought sucked. I bought 5000 clicks and I put a tracker on the delivery page. 200 clicks !! LOL what a scam that was

    adbuytraffic.com... These guys seem a little strange. I purchased some traffic by CC, no traffic as of now. I sent over 2 e-mails. If somebody has a contact over there, I'd appreciate some help.

    Makin_Coin,

    Finding a good traffic source takes time and research. Don't make the same mistakes I did in the beginning, which was to trust sites that looked legit. a High % of sites selling traffic are dodgy. They'll scam you it's that simple.

    I can tell you however to stay awat from these URL's.
    (please remove xxx from URL)
    xxxhttp://www.buyhits.net
    Myself & my business partner purchased a combined total of 50K supposed to be targeted premium casino traffic. Every 1000 hits we were getting scammed 400 false hits. Adding that the traffic was coming from Ringtone, MP3, India Movies and other non related casino catchments.

    In affect we got scammed, the traffic cost us $800US.

    Do your home work on these places before you outlay cash & if you do outlaw cash make sure you do it with PayPal, least that way you can lodge a dispute if they scam you.

    I've just purchased 30K over the weekend of re-directed traffic from expired casino/gambling domains. This seems a more practical way to go as surfers are push straight to your URL, not feed popups or pop unders.

    I'll see how this goes for now, least this guy replies to my emails and setup the account in a matter of hours.

    My other option which I'm thinking about is to just throw $3K at purchasing expired domains that hold SE listings and redirect their hits to my sites.
    If each domain was getting 20 uniques a day, that's about 300 domains @ 20 a day = 6K of uniques a day.

    Probably a better option in the long run.

    Hey Wager2winUK,

    Can you tell me what were your results from re-directed traffic and who did you use? I am interested in traffic but I try to avoid pop-up or pop-under traffic...

    I do not agree with your review at all.

    I buy 50K Uniques a month from www.buyhits.net and have for 8 months.... my ROI from hit to registered visitor to member is higher with their traffic then any other I have purchased.

    I have had real bad expierances with other static banner programs. They produce nothing.

    If you are having conversion problems, you may want to examine what your site and tour look like.

    The great thing about Buyhits.net and other companies that garantee uniques.. is that you get what you pay for.

    As for the notion that they employ cheap labor to click links.. is crazy.. ... technology is already in place to combat that at Adsense and Overture...

    It can be argued that any site offering banners or traffic can do this.. I did not experiance any hint of this activity ever.

    I also like that they show me each and every page and the time it was accessed and by what IP.. so I KNOW you are not correct.

    Whether you go with Buyhits.net or any other... make sure they provide you with that report.

    Buyhits.net is in real time during your campaign.. that is one of the main items that made them crediable to me.

    I can't believe that I was getting away with buying casino traffic on Google
    PPC until just about 2 weeks ago.

    Then I got the letter from hell.

    Arggg.

    However, I love buying PPC traffic for one simple reason...

    1. It makes you accountable and you HAVE TO SELL.

    You can't be a piss poor salesman and use PPC most of the
    times. It really keeps you sharp when you got money on
    the line.

    Now that I'm 86'd from Google PPC for Poker related ads, I'm
    in the market to buy some gambling related traffic as well.

    I got a page that converts around 2% and just need to slam
    as much traffic as I can.
