This is exactly what i am talking about. More traffic does not equate to more money. The "highest bidder" is pointless if you don't have any real understanding of the user, what they are looking for and how to get them to where they need to be as part of the process.
Both concepts go hand in hand.
The "highest bidder" does not mean "the highest return per click" or "most revenue". It simply means .0X/click. If you can't convert because you have a terrible understanding of your own visitors and terrible understanding of how to get them where they need to be, its irrelevant what anyone is paying per click.
An awesome big tits paysite that converts really well is irrelevant if you are sending the wrong traffic to it with an ad that says "click here to see a midget getting kicked by a donkey". All I am saying is that "traffic" is only 1/2 of the marketing equation.
