    are there any site that actually sell traffic, good traffic, that is not ppc. Maybe redirected visitors, popups, etc.. Any good companies out there? I know everone is going to say they are all scams, but there has to be some that actually work. Price no object.

    I doubt if you will get that many, if any at all replies. They go for free stuff, and this overrated seo. They don't want to spend any money.

    I advertise a lot, but I haven't used any such services. All I can suggest is to try them to find out on your own.

    Hell, you should, anyway, because what may not work for one may work for you, and, vice versa.

    By the way, the majority of their advertising will be pay per click.

    Good luck.

    I've never heard of anyone have any really good success with buying bulk traffic. Best bet is to use PPC.

    I did not make any sales from the thousands of hits that I got from two different services I found on eBay. I tried two services and 3 different products.

    If anybody had any luck I would be glad to hear about it also.

    None of the bulk traffic you can buy on ebay is going to convert for you... you know why? The people aren't looking for your website. They are either being paid (In pennies, or credits to use on views of their sites) or your site is pop'd, or a redirect to your site is in place.

    These are all useless and a waste of time and money.

    Either learn your target audience or quit

    Theres a reason the marketing word gets slung around in this industry, and its not because we blindly throw random traffic at the wall to see if they might be interested. We look for that person, looking for {KEYWORD}.

    I have to agree to everyone on this one. Bulk traffic doesn't really convert. You can research and follow some time tested methods that are being posted here in the forums so you can get more visitors to your site. Good luck!

    I have never bought traffic. I have never heard of it working effectively. Use articles and signature links.

    Bulk has never worked. TARGETED traffic is what will convert. Your best bet is buying advertising on pages that will get you targeted traffic. I'd look to buy content on sites that have supplementary subject matter. I'd stress supplementary and not same niche as what you are trying to drive traffic to.

    I have seen sales increase after buying traffic. It is not nearly as good as PPC or search traffic but I guess it depends on where you buy it. I use revisitors.com for adult traffic but they sell regular traffic as well. You should not use them, however, unless you make a sizable commission from a single sale.

    Thanks for the heads up I will have to check out revisitors for some targeted traffic.

    However the only thing that I believe that bulk traffic to be good for is lead generation. Like mentioned these people are getting paid pennies to view your site for 20 seconds or something like that. Hell they may not even be at the computer at the time.

    So if they are there you only have 20 seconds to talk them into stopping the rotator and to sell to them. So do you think that even an interested visitor will have time to pull out the credit card in 20 seconds? Probably not.

    Do you think that they can fill in their name and email address to get a free ebook or other incentive in under 20 seconds. Most likely
