    You can only make it out that out of 5000 visitors how many will be relevant traffic and would actually will be interested in your products or service. A relevant traffic of 50 people is much better to have an irrelevant traffic from 5000 visitors.

    I don't think it's bad, but that kind of traffic is pretty useless

    it depends on what you want exactly: traffic (no matter its quality) or high conversion rate. I suggest you not to pay attention to such "services".

    You haven't posted which of the service you are referring to, but usually those types of traffic are worthless. If you are looking for more traffic, it's better to invest in PPC campaigns with Google Adwords or some other well-known PPC Engines.

    I can tell you from experience, DON'T DID IT. First the traffic is crap. Not allows from the same IP but a lot of times your site is displayed on a page in a iframe and the user doesn't even see it! Conversions, i.e.; visits to sale ratio, is non-existent. And even worst, if you are using something like AdSense you will get nasty emails telling you they have detected you are using an automated traffic generating service and that they are going to ban you if you do not stop.

    Bottom line, it is a waste of money and time.

    For me, natural traffic is like the regular customer to a specific kind of shop. They will come and come again because they really like to the shop. This is what we call, unique reader. They can read your articles or post from start till the end. They love to come to your blog or site. This unique reader will give you $$$. I believe that paying for traffic is nonsense and not a long term minded to gain the profit

    most of the traffics that generates by a software by these companies are fake, its better to hire or work hard for your own at least you are not paying as much that cost and through a natural traffic will last longer.

    Why would you pay for some company to send you traffic? The chances that any of that traffic is qualified is probably really slim.

    I think it's not good traffic. You can use auto surfing site for same traffic.
