Buying Traffic
 

To those who have had success buying traffic, what services do you recommend and which ones would you avoid?

I'm not looking for spam here, but honest replies from webmasters who have actually done this.

Choker Traffic is pretty good. You can buy traffic in 1,000 hit allotments.
http://www.chokertraffic.com/

It depends on the use for the traffic - Ive used a few different services that specialize in certain types of traffic - the two I can still recommend are Choker and FPC at http://buy.fpctraffic.com/
for feeder and general traffic.

For more specialized niche stuff I kinda like Google AdWords :)

In terms of high prod and clicked traffic, I think it's a unanimous decision that Traffic-Out.com is your best bet.

I agree, Adwords is gold. The only downside is that it takes trial-and-error. So if you don't mind losing money in the beginning, go with Adwords. |thumb

Where are you planning on sending the traffic to? A lot depends on the type of site you are sending the traffic to and what you are trying to achieve - gain bookmarkers, make sales, improve trades etc. I use different traffic sources for different things, and some traffic sources I wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy. But the ones mentioned so far in this thread I would recommend, plus one or two others.

I'm primarily looking to make sales.

I think they mean are you going to buy the traffic FOR a linklist, tgp, galleries or free sites... where are you going to have it sent?
I want to buy some good traffic for my linklists so which would you guys recommend from that list so far?

Essentially it would be for a small site that promotes a particular webcam sponsor. I used to promote it using Google Adwords, but that's been less successful lately.

Ahh well I noticed that Chokers Free/Paysite Traffic has a niche for webcam, and http://www.fpcclicks.com/ has a link where you can ask for niches that arent on their list.

I've used Choker and had a bit of success. Nothing huge, but I made a small profit. I think a lot of that is trial and error, seeing what pages sell, etc.

Hi
Is it possible to buy traffic directly for the main site not for tgp,mgp, free sites ....

thx in advance for replay

Let me just say THANK YOU to those that have posted so far & not made this into a |spam|fest |shake|

Pay me in advance and I will promote your program and send real traffic to you that is known to be very productive, ie link list traffic. I'm the best traffic broker I have ever used, and I've used a few.

Fisty - actually for that type of site, using some sort of feeder free sites submitted to Link Lists would be a much cheaper and more efficient way of promoting it - use your existing site as sort of a hub and link free sites to it.

What I would like to do Is buy some small amount of traffic around 10k-15k just to test design/ convert ratio of the site. If you have any suggestions msg me.

What I did for my gallery pages...I ran them all for a week before on TGP's. I tested see which ones got hits, clicks, and signups. The best performing I submitted to choker...bought 50k of traffic and spread it over 10 gallery pages. It worked out nicely...but you seriously have to test the pages before you pay for hits.

That's very interesting - I've also been using adwords to promote a webcam sponsor and for 18 months or so it was very succesful, but the last two or three months have been pure crap. In fact not even that good.

Hmm...... I got an open spot on my movie page, I would consider selling it to an honest LL or TGP for a month

Hey Tommy,

How about a paysite?

Neil

noooooo paysites :-)

OOOOOOOK!
:D

I am trying some traffic from http://buy.fpctraffic.com/ at my newest linklist, because its so new I should be able to tell what kind of return I get from it. Will tell you all how it went :D

Thanks, Linkster. I will definitely give your advice a try. PPC just hasn't been paying off lately.

Best,
Fisty

I can comiserate with you. Something definitely caused a change in the overall conversions. Rumors abound as to why, but the fact remains that certain things don't work as well as they once did.

look forward to reading this natalie :)
