Would it be worth while to purchase adsense safe traffic just for newsletter signup?

I would like to purchase cheap adsense safe, real people, unique traffic land them on my Newsletter Signup Form and see what happens. I'm thinking just with the sheer volume of visitors you can purchase (If real people) might be worth it.

Has anyone else done this? If so, where to purchase traffic from?

Thanks

    The problem with this type of traffic, even if it's real, it will totally untargeted.

    Your conversion rates will be very low. Sure you'll see a lot of traffic, but nobody will be interested in what you have to offer.

    Just think about it, if it would really work, nobody would be paying $40 for 100 solo ad clicks to build their list.

    So i suggest you don't waste any money on this type of traffic as you're bound to lose it.

      You have have 500 million users hit your website, but none of them are interested in what you have to offer then it's pointless.

      It's better to have a small amount of highly targeted traffic than it is to have large amounts of untargeted and random views. Real or not.

    I say test the source if it's super cheap and you don't mind the experience..

    but buying traffic like that usually doesn't work.. your signups might be miniature at best. Also consider your bounce rate will also spike, so that hurts your website too

    PPV for building leads can work but you have to really test it. The good thing is you can at least target who you want by keyword.

    PPC might be your best option next to SEO. Quick results, and targeted.

    This can work if you target where those most likely to be interested in your newsletter are. If it's a newsletter about sports, target sports sites. Also no reason not to have a search campaign as well. A remarketing campaign could be good too.

    Targeting is more important than volume, with good targeting you can strike a personal chord and really start making the sales.
