Question of the day - do you go for quantity of leads, or quality of leads? Which do you prefer, and why?

    Quality.......always.

    Quantity does you no good if they either can't afford to buy your products or would never have an interest in buying them anyways.

    If you sold winter coats, would you rather have 200 people from a cold climate visit your website or 2,000 people from a warm climate visit your site?

      I hear you there. So, let's say you're a freelancer. Do you post your hourly rate on your web site if you charge let's say "$XX" and you want to filter out people that think what you do only costs 10% of "$XX?" But what if you post your rate as "$XX" and your competition charges "$XXX" - doesn't that make you look like you're the bottom of the barrel in your industry?

    I go for quality links. Getting quality back links to your website is very important in increasing the traffic to the website and also to get potential visitors for your products and services. You can get quality back links from through link exchange process.

    To start with the process you need to find out the websites that can bring visitors to your website. Make a good relationship with such web sites and offer a link exchange with them.

    Quality definitely. Turning leads into buyers, then repeat buyers, then raving fans. Having a list of BUYERS always trumps having a list of SUBSCRIBERS.
