15 replies
Did anybody ever purchased this services! They claim to send you 1000/2000/5000 unique visitors for 5 bucks! It's pretty obvious the quality of the traffic is c..p, but i would like to know if anybody here ever purchased this services and if they got sales from this gigs. I am pretty sure no, but just want a confirmation.

      Your suspicions are correct. Such gigs are notorious for their ineffectiveness unfortunately.

      There are even apps available nowadays that send torrents of fake visitors, so you can't really bank your beans in confidence since so many options are available to those who want to game a traffic business.

    Mostly like bots or useless traffic from foreign countries. Some, if not many, of the SEO gigs out there are likely from automated tools.

    Buying traffic is a pure scam. Don't fool yourself into buying stuff like that. The only (mostly) honest traffic you'll get is from Google or Facebook.

        At least with those big two you can actually get your ad in front of real eyeballs. With these cheap traffic gigs you just end up with people getting crappy pop-unders that nobody pays attention to.

        People are always going to game the system. The trick is to play with the companies that give you the statistically higher chance of not being a complete ripoff.

      Not true.

      There are several places to buy decent traffic besides Google or Facebook.

      I have gained sign ups and sales from...
      1. Solo ads
      2. Banner Adverising
      3. Other pay per click networks
      4. etc...
      Oddly enough...Most of the money that I have wasted on advertising that brought no sales was Facebook.


      Not to say Facebook advertising does not work..It's just that I suck at making adds for Facebook that convert and pass their advertising guidelines.

        When I look at my traffic analytics and my click stats in Facbook, about 20% are actual visits....so 80% are fraudulent clicks. FB ads is more scam than authentic even with micro targeting.

    It is probably either really low quality traffic or even bot traffic. Even though $5 is tempting it isn't worth it.

    Real visitors can be tough to find.

    My lowest current CPC on Bing is $0.09 for a low comp. niche. 10/10 quality scores.

    1000 x $0.09 = $90

    1000/2000/5000 unique visitors for 5 bucks!
    I don't think so...
