    Hello,

    I started buying artificial traffic. Does it help to come up higher on google? Can it harm to my sites? Can google and others know that i am getting artficial traffic?

    It is really artificial. There is a site which changes urls every 30 seconds. Members of the site which I bought links from are leaving this site open and they are automatically visiting my url among others. There are members all around the world.

    I tested it with a traffic counter. I am getting visitors and Alexa of my sites also decreased.

    I want to hear your opions.

    Thanks in advance

    Sounds like an autosurf program, which can actually get you banned from Google AdSense and many other advertisers. Google can, usually does, strip your page rank, remove your page from its index, or put your page in its sandbox (often referred to as Google Hell).

    It is a very bad idea and can have very permanent consequences.

    Thank you. You rescued me :) I took all my adsenses out.

    But I could not find any information about being sunboxed because of auto surf?

    I want to hear some more opinions about autosurf. Can It cause being put in google sandbox?

    i think that autosurf alone, cant cause your site fall into sandbox. cause it cant interfere web site's content.
    and web site's content is that .. what can bring into sandbox, if u use i.e. black hat, grey hat, or some forbidden technics.

    @Matthias pointed out a huge wake up call.

    I suggest to build your traffic naturally, because those efforts will come repeatedly then a one time artificial traffic. Anything that seems too easy, is always bad. If you need help in learning how to anchor text or anything feel free to add me or pm.
