Buying traffic sucks - GoFuckYourself.com

sjoerdv · 04-24-2004, 08:02 AM

Bought traffic from several sources mentioned on GFY. To be honest they all suck. Conversion is zero even on sites with 1:200 conversion normally. Are they all cheaters?? Or selling useless TGP traffic?? Traffic doesn't even convert on extreme fetish sites (really extreme).

stop buying traffic then and stop bitching

traffic is meant to be built and traded to ppl who have better traffic than u

brizzad · 04-24-2004, 08:07 AM

yeah.. buy traffic to boost your tgp trades and stuff... dont buy it hoping to get sales

Frank The Tank · 04-24-2004, 08:10 AM

Agreed - buy traffic when you want to boost your own traffic otherwise trade links , buy links on other sites

Yep, been doing that also, but still it seems the traffic isn't worth much. There should be a way to get better traffic somehow..

if it was just that easy to buy traffic and have it be of excellent quality, then the traffic brokers would keep it for themselves

the only way ive found to pay for traffic and have it actually bring in lots of sales, would be to use google adwords

Targeted traffic is always the best not generalised

seo is also important and will get you the proper traffic that you want

It's not their fault you can't sell duh!

sjoerdv · 04-24-2004, 08:17 AM

I think building traffic is useless. So for example I start trades and buy traffic. The other trader does the same probably and you end up trading useless traffic.
SE traffic seems better but google adwords didn't work for me really well yet.

*smackshead* trade with established sites with the same type of content as yours and get targetted traffic that way and u must not be using google correctly if its not working .. its bringing you the people who are looking for what youve got unless you picked fucking stupid words with nothing in common with ur content

Try Overture.

Giorgio_Xo · 04-24-2004, 08:45 AM

How you filter and organize the traffic you buy is what matters. A simple FPA to a sponsor won't work. You would be better served by offering a true user experience that gives a reason to come back every day.

My sales come from my bookmarks. Bookmarks are people who trust me enough to come back every day because of a rewarding experience. A user needs to have repeated visits to the same site.

Real marketing equals real money.

I bought traffic from most

fpcclicks
Choker
Sex.com
and more

And I never spent a dollar on traffic that didn't at least double my money.

Learn the game then use the tools.

Here, let me explain it to you. IF you trade with a Quality site it doesn't matter if they do the same thing. A Quality site will have bookmarkers/search engine traffic/other sources of traffic. By trading you get all of it good/"bad". If you're trading at a high prod, the worst the "bad" traffic will do is get you another visitor by going to another trade. So this model does work

The only traffic I bought and sent to my paysite was from spotbrokers when they first started and it converted great, but I am now only feeding that traffic to my tgps etc...

Sony · 04-24-2004, 09:56 AM

Stop using traffic brokers and start buying spots on large TGP's. At least you will know were your traffic is coming from.

riosluts · 04-24-2004, 09:58 AM

yeah there was a fellow here a few weeks ago saying how he bough like 10K of clicked traffic to send to his mainstream and he didnt make much
