PTC traffic is trash. Install a statcounter code on one of the pages and you can see the url they came from and know where and why the traffic is coming.
PTC traffic has it's uses. It can be highly targetted. You can guarantee it is at least real people with an online payment method. That's more than most bot traffic can provide.
Well, Maybe so. All my traffic is direct from the top search engines so I guess it just seems like trash to me. I have had large campaigns with this type of traffic and it got me no sales.
I get it from about 10 ptc sites i've never heard of, have done for about the past 3 months. All linking to a 3 month old blog post. Ah well
