Do buying links on unvisited blogs help at all?

[TaylorCPT]

The blog has plenty of content but no traffic, and has no ranking numbers whatsoever according to my webrank toolbar

i went on fivver and picked up 55 links for $5, would it be wise to continue doing this or is it no good? I'm using matt laclear's service but also making attempts to make improvements on my own as well.

They help if you are trying to move up the search engine rankings. If you are trying to get traffic from them, then it is not worth buying links on them. Any backlink is beneficial. Even low quality backlinks give off value.

^This. 55 links for 5 bucks is a good deal as long as the pages have good ORIGINAL content and have some backlinks as well. When buying links, I think the SEO value of them far outweighs the traffic value, but everybody has a different opinion. If you want traffic and links, try buying some digg gigs or something that can boost your backlinks up in bookmarking sites.

I agree that they have value. Links from high PR, high traffic, high authority sites are great, but you'd better have a lot of junk in your link profile as well in order to make it natural.
