    buying traffic = quick fix

    lots of people don't want to get seo work done and then wait to see results, they want traffic NOW!!!

    trouble is that buying traffic usually always delivers low quality, uninterested and worthless visits :(

    I agree with the above comments, buying traffic is a waste of time. I've bought traffic from numerous sources and don't get me wrong, I've always got the traffic but they never convert, what does that say?

    It says you either didn't find the right service and or it was the look of your site.

    Sorry to be so blunt, but....

    Its like the movie where these guys were trapping killer lions in India.

    Val Kilmer builds a big trap that is made for the lion to come in, and then the doors are supposed to slam shut, trapping the lion, while he is protected by some steel bars.

    It doesn't work. But as the other hunter says, it was a good idea :)

    I have tried a couple places without good results.

    But i still think its a good idea.

    no no no no no,,, and once again NO !!

    WHY OH WHY do people think buying traffic works, I fell into this trap many years ago, in fact I bought tens of millions of hits from dozens of companies and didnt get a single sale on a ringtone website

    Its all computer generated traffic - if someone wants to buy like a ringtone on the internet they dont go to a traffic website, they use a search engine - you may as well go to your counter page and type in youve had 1000 hits for that day !

    I learnt the hard way = why pay for traffic when you can get it for free from search engines !
