Best Paid Traffic Sources?

I had better luck with AdWords than I did with Facebook paid ads. Social media is a great way to get traffic to blogs/sites, but you have to get out there and network. In my opinion, people tend to ignore paid ads on social media because they are generally there to chat with friends, family, and look at other things they are already interested in.

Your success may depend on your niche though.

I've snagged some really great advertising packages at buysellads.com. There is lots to choose from in different price ranges. It's worth looking into.

Kind of hard to answer this question. The best paid traffic source would be the one that works amazingly well for you.

I had good results with Bing Ads and some of the Solo Ads vendors... When it comes to Bing Ads - they are Much cheaper than the Big G and results are pretty much the same unless you're investing a Ton of money!
When it comes to Solo Ads, I'd recommend vendors that are including their buyers leads in the list they are using for the solo, if not a solo ad to their buyers list...
Hope that helps

Credits to Gaugher Chaudhry. I got this list when I opt-ined on his blog. It's a great list so it might be a good share for those who are starting.

Google adwords works. Facebook ads are okay depending on your niche. Just remember for google adwords to geo target. It is easy to get cheap ads if you do worldwide targeting, but it isn't the best conversion then.

Bing ads are pretty decent.

Stay away from twitter ads. Too expensive and not worth it.

Craiglist ad is also a great source for getting buyer traffic.

Google Adwords and facebook ads in very Good option for paid traffic. I have use them both and it gives me good result.

I do actually get a really good ROI when I invest in facebook ads, but it really depends on your niche and what you are offering. Facebook advertising is great but you need to know what you are doing or else you can burn through a good chunk of money.

SOLO Traffic is the best for newbie's and it high quality too.

Does Google Adwords work well with a detailed page with an opt-in? Or do they zero tolerance against any sort of a squeeze page?

SEO is the best traffic you can get.

You can define any traffic source as "Best" only based on your target audience. If you are targeting professional network, go for linkedin advertising.

If you want to target facebook users or the users who liked specific facebook pages, you can go for facebook advertising.

Twitter advertising also works.

The most important option is that you can try contacting third party websites (where you can find your target audience) and get their paid ads. Check out moat.com to see where your competitors are advertising and to find what ads are they using to promote themself.

It's too hard to answer as the answer is going to be different for different people.

Just experiment with a couple of different sources and test out different ads on them and measure the results.

If i have a site can i ad ads to it on the sides so i can earn everytime someone clicks on it? if so how is it done? im with 123reg any help would be great

A lot of people are going to say Facebook to death...

Which Facebook is great, for certain things.

When you're looking for a sale on something, think real, low cost products.

T-shirts, baby items, phone accessories, gadgets, software, things that have a low cost, and people don't mind making a spontaneous purchase to get.

Branding, just getting your brand seen, which is really easy with Social Media.

Make Money Online? Work on getting people opted-in and send them through a funnel, with a descent email or video series. Because you are going to have to do a lot of educating, before you convert people
in that niche.

Most Facebook stuff, just really requires you to sit back, and start thinking like a normal human, and not a marketer.

Could really write an entire book, about getting into a different mindset when picking your traffic sources. You really need to know the audience for many of the traffic sources, to really do well with them.

Normally, I say just take action, do something...

But you really have to do some thinking about your niche, your offer, and the audience of certain traffic sources. There is no reason to just jump in and waste money like crazy. The way most of us, that have been around forever, learned itl. Hard lessons, I don't wish for anyone to go through.

The first time I ever ran an adwords ad, I blew through $215 in 15 minutes lol.

Obviously I learned a lot since those days...

I would suggest you to try this Facebook App to get traffic before you go over to Facebook/Adwords advertising.

One thing, that it will cost you much less as compared to paid advertising.
Another thing that it will probably bring more traffic in a viral way.
You just pay for the app and share the app on Facebook and there it gets VIRAL.

But its up to you which way you want to go. I am just giving my suggestion.

i think it's Facebook/Adwords advertising
and bing ad ,maybe ...

I think most of all, it depends on the niche and offer you're promoting....
any traffic source would work (and to verify this - there are 7-Figures earner in any traffic source...)
but at the end of the day it comes down to 2 main things -

1. You SELLING skills... e.g. copy / creatives / whatever it is you're using to sell either your own product OR an affiliate offer...

2. just BE WHERE YOUR POTENTIAL COSTUMERS ARE..... I'd say Facebook ads works great! but if you run adults offers - would they? same goes for running ads even here on the WF.. that would work for the IM niche, right? Will it work for the dating niche ? not sure...
just study who is your PERFECT costumer, then study WHERE do they hang out... then BE THERE ! :-)

I know it's a little bit of more work... but it can save you a lot of money... and make you a fortune !

Hi,

I'm having some good results with IBOTOOLBOX at the moment.

Hardly anyone is using it at the moment.

That's probably why I'm having some results with it right now.

Like anything though these traffic sources soon get over saturated.

All the best,
Gavin

"The last dejected effort often becomes the winning stroke."

For me Face book traffic was best but they have restricted ads now in my niche. Since then I am with Adwords and it works great as well.

If one is able to identify best converting campaigns, that is the best paid traffic, no matter which advertising platform it is.

Hey there! From what I keep hearing Facebook is really good for getting the traffic you want, but ad words works well too. I personally have had success with Facebook system so I can't really complain much!

I have been using paid email lists and mailing from my own self hosted server via amazon sms.

I build my list at $10 per 10,000 subscribers (not a typo) and I pay $0.10 per 1000 emails sent.

NO facebook ads, SOLO ads, SEO, google adwords... or anything else for that matter will ever be able to beat that

I have a couple of different reliable sources.

Some of the more common (and expensive) are lists.nextmark.com or getsubscribers.com for example.

Even though these may seem more than my $10 source... when you look at it from the grand view ... like most try to compare it to a solo ad...

But there is no comparison.

Solo ads you may be paying $0.30 a CLICK... from a decent average list... but your conversion may only be 30%... if you are lucky!

So essentially you are still paying $1 per subscriber. Most pay triple that in the long run messing around with facebook ads before they finally figure it out.

Where with this method.. you are actually paying for the guaranteed subscriber.

I think the quality of questions we ask will determine the quality of answers we get...

Best traffic source? What are you promoting? Who is your ideal customer?

I LOVE paid traffic. It's fast, reliable. FB allows you to pinpoint specifically who you want, if you know how to use it. I promote a lot of offers in IM, Health, Dating, Etc... So I love doing e-mail media buys and newsletter marketing for that stuff because it's all "general interest".

Adwords, Bing, Facebook are some of the top traffic sources I've used. All depends on your niche tho. So basically, just experiment with different traffic sources and see what works for you.

Loaded question that begs to ask ... what is it that you want to promote?

I have used both FB and adwords. Both have their merits. At the end of the day conversion rates depend on your niche. For example in my case FB ads didn't work well for selling internet marketing services, whereas FB worked great for selling a couple of my amazon products. So, it depends on the niche.

This depends on products which you promote. You need to test.. test.. test.. each paid traffic source.

google Adwords, facebook ads,linkedin ads...

that comment by salegurus is like a treasure. glad i've opened this post to see that xD

My best paid traffic sources are:

- Bing Ads
- Google Adwords
- Media Buys
- Advertising sites in my niche
- Facebook

That's it really. But you should try them yourself to see how they do for you. I'm sure it won't be hard for you. Keep the dream alive and go hard.

When you know what you're doing, i think FB ads are the best...I've had great results with it

There are tons of places to advertise, some better than others depending on the niche. Common sources are Adwords/BingAds/Facebook/Twitter Ads. But there's TONS of other platforms you an try. The question is not so much "where can I advertise", but rather simply think about where your target audience is online (or off) and then this will lead the trail to the appropriate platforms and outlets that you need to go through to connect with them. Who knows? Popular advertising platforms like Adwords or FB may not be it for you. Depending on your niche, perhaps it's some unknown beaten path that many people don't even know exists!

This is a question nobody can truly answer. What's best for me will not necessarily be best for you. It depends on your niche and your monetization strategy. The only way to find out is to test.

Hi,

you can try Google Adwords and Bing Ads for better traffic which can give you more conversion rate and better ROI for your website.

As I came down in this Thread, It became more and more Complex. According to me the answer of "Best Paid Traffic Sources?" depends on the purpose of your Advertising.
If you want to get instant result and don't have any budget problem then go for Google Adwords.

But If you want to play long term game then I would like to suggest you to generate your Facebook page like by paying them. Once you are done with it and share any piece of Information on your page, then flood gates of Traffic will open for your Site ......Trust me.

Personally, I've had good results with Bing Ads. You can still ger good traffic fairly cheaply by running a campaign there.

This depends on your niche and targeted consumers. You could try any from the suggested sources and from it you could try them one by one and see who from it works for you.

Google Adwords, Facebook Ads campaigns, LinkedIn Ads, Twitter Ads, PPC Campaigns, BuySellAds.com, StumbleUpon and Email Marketing are excellent sources for Paid traffic. I have used them all and its gives me excellent results.

There is no exact answer of this questions. Because which traffic source will be the best depends on the niche and product. People are making quite good amount of money from Bing, Fb ads, Ppv, media buy etc. Mastering any traffic source would be good enough.

Thanks

Hi everyone am mlm marketer am doing mlm marketing,So I have my banners and referral links and i want to do advertising of my banner and links..
So which i am thinking to buy paid traffic and doing advertising..So anyone can suggest me good traffic sources..
from my search i got two reputed traffic sources which is better for advertising as follows :

1.Google adwords
2.Facebook Ads

So any can tell me the conversion rates of these two advertising in terms of percentage....

And also tell me any other good paid traffic sources..

Thank You if you suggest and guide me...

SEO doesn't work for instant , like teespring, you need fb ads,twitter ads

I haven't tried any other networks but I have only started with Facebook and results are absolutely amazing, they may not have amazing support but they have next to none targeting available on their platform, don't think I can give exact conversion numbers as they will be different for you. But TRY THEM OUT!

The best paid traffic source by far is Google Adwords however, it is very pricey! From my experience, to drive a decent amount of traffic to your page/site, you will need a relatively large budget

Depends on a lot of things. What you want to promote, what countries you want to target, niche, etc. In general stick to the high quality traffic sources. Google, Bing, FaceBook. It's a bit harder then people make it seem but with enough persistence I'm sure you can make it work

Good luck!

In addition, you can use 50onred or BuySellAds. Traffic sources from both networks as well.

Hey dude

My 3 all-time traffic sources for both ROI and high conversion rates are as follows:

1) Adwords - excellent traffic quality and excellent volumes. Still solid ROI if you concentrate on outside the box keywords

2) Facebook - huge volumes, bit less targeted and solid ROI. Although hammering down your demographic is still key and you do need to watch your campaigns everyday and adjust manually while running it. Those days of leaving it switched on 24/7 no longer work due to increased competition

3) BING - very good ROI due to lower competition, but also lower volumes. I use it as a small traffic booster once my Adwords campaign is established. I then simply copy my whole Adwords campaign (all high CTR ads and all the good keywords) over to BING for a nice traffic and profit boost.

Hope that helps
Nick

To get quick conversation with targeted traffic, i would suggest you to use Facebook.

Bing and Facebook both rock the house.

I would recommend Bing more for someone with less paid traffic experience...

As it's easier to get targeted clicks at a much cheaper price.
