Paid CPA vs SEO

by papeter

You have a hypothetical $1000 to invest. You have a choice
of only two types of marketing strategies, which one would you vote for and why?


A) Paid traffic to CPA offers using your landing pages.

B) Free traffic SEO 5/15 page niche sites/blogs monetized with affiliate links.

    It's not either-or. It's both.
    It's like saying should I promote my business by word of mouth only? Or ONLY with ads?
    Doing only one is half-baked.

    Paid traffic for speed - and quality (once you learn how)
    SEO for long-term effects and better quality

    Totally agree.
    Can't split them up because they do different things for different sites. Depends on niche, how much patience you have, how much work you are willing to put in to the SEO and if you want to turn your website into a long term online business.

    Anyway, what happens when the $1000 worth of ads runs out? You still have the same decision. Commonly people will get at least a half decent site up before they advertise because they don't have the funds early on.

    The other alternative of course is SEO and the use of social media sites etc.
