Newbie: When you buy clicks where do you send them?

by Aaron Autrey
13 replies
Obviously most people selling clicks want you sending their traffic to your free audio, video, or ebook.

Let's say it's an ebook. Should the traffic funnel go something like this:

1) Buy clicks
2) Send them to squeeze page
3) Squeeze page opt in form sends them an email with the ebook attached.

Can the email with the 2 books also send your affilite link you're trying to promote?

?? Then what do you do after that?

    I send them to a squeeze which is the entrance of my funnel. They will choose to take action or not. I then have a follow up series in place that gives value and has promotion blended in. I use a promotional cycle. I follow up with the person frequently and make it a point to give them MASSIVE VALUE through my emails. Keep helping a person and it will build trust and rapport. Once a person learns to trust you they will be more open to listen to you when you suggest they take an action. Build a list whether its emails or syndication sources and communicate to that list with a ton of value regularly. I do not sell I just make recommendations of what will help my target audience the most.

    I send my traffic to my lead capture obviously and this common..

    after than I send 4 - 5 days email of free information, like new training or so than I send them some good product which will benefit them..

    So the process is full of quality not non-quality emails and product..

    Whatever you do.. always keep in mind that you are giving valuable information to the visitor, to your lead and to your customer..

    Treat your leads as we you customer not as subscriber..

    When you all the time keep in your mind as customer than your minds always tells to help your customer and not divert customer to some bad things..

    So start it and see what result you get..

    I hope this helps you..

    Thanks

    Well if you're new... how do you write continuous emails about "value". I honestly could write about how much the WF has helped me out, but I don't know anything much passed that. The "program" that I'm in has a campaign code I can put in aweber and have continuous emails. Maybe I should just do that.

      Why do you think this will be a way of getting targeted traffic you can opt in, convert, and from which you can earn profits?

      You have to test it for yourself, to know the answer confidently. It's a big and complicated subject, and it depends on a lot of different factors. Two pretty important ones are the subscribers' expectations (which of course depend on what you've told them, and why, and how) and the traffic demographics.

      With apologies for sounding negative about it, my strong hunch is that if you're "buying clicks" (unless you were referring to PPC advertising, there - but I don't think you were?), it may not be too relevant to you.

      See if the stuff in this thread helps you: it's quite a good discussion. and all on one page: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post6123982

    I'm honestly just trying to build a list of around 500 subs. Alexa, do you have any other suggestions besides buying clicks or using solo ads?

      I hear you, but it's all in the targeting. Better to opt in 100 people who found your site because they were already looking for information about your niche than 1,000 people who are "paid clicks" (if you can ever get 1,000 people to opt in at all, from paid clicks, that is).

      Well, I'm not really the right person to ask for "traffic suggestions". I get 80% of my traffic from article syndication (I'm an article marketer, really), and the rest is a mixture of Google/SEO traffic (not nearly as good) and bits and pieces from other sources (forum posting, guest blogging, Yahoo answers - I don't do that one so much now, too busy - but those are all good when you can do them in the right places) and so on.

      I know solo ads can be good, if you can find the right ezines/newsletter services for them, because this at least is targeted traffic.

      I wasn't quite clear what you meant by "When you buy clicks ..." in the title. Exactly what sort of traffic were you referring to, here? How well targeted is it?

    Traffic, just internet marketers, people who may not be a part of the same affiliate program I'm in. Just a small list to start and we'll go from there. I know ads and swapping lists isn't too targeted but at least it's something to start to get my name out there.

    Yup you got it right! Send them to a squeeze page. After you should email them. Offer them a good balance of value vs. relevant product promotions.

    Good luck!

    Buying clicks is not a very good Newbie idea.

    You should send all of your traffic to your squeeze page.

      What traffic? If I'm not buying clicks... what about a solo ad?

    The other people who've answered either said they weren't the right person to ask for traffic suggestions, or gave me no suggestions at all... Clicks it is :-)
