As I understand it there may not be direct monetary gains (ie getting back what I invest) but this can improve my standing with Google page ranking, is this correct? I should point out my budget is fairly low...
Thanks for the help folks,

first of all...u should not be using the word invest. as u already know ur getting back NOTHING from this, so it should be rightly called EXPENSE...get that right
buying small amounts traffic will do Zero for your page rank or seo rankings.
ive checked out ur site and its totally same niche as my ex-sites. in fact i find ur posts to be quite hot.
your
Blog will not do well at all with any kind of skimmed or pop traffic. reasons being
1) there will be a too-high bounce rate.
2) u have zero traffic trading
3) probably near zero book markers
4) probably zero sales
when buying traffic...u want either to TRADE IT or GET BOOKMARKERS.
for a blog...the best bet will be organic seo traffic or plug rush.
however ur blog is not suitable at all for plug rush...so talking specifically about your blog, i think its still far from being ready for any kind of purchased traffic
if you wish to buy skimmed traffic, i suggest making your landing page to have 80% to 90% less text and more then double the images, either by making more posts or more images per post
