Turning $60 in traffic into 6 figures by doing the opposite.

69 replies
I spent a couple grand in AdWords in the past on a few sites and pretty much lost it all. I've found that buying packages from smaller companies pays off much more in the long run.

I was paying about $0.50-$1.20 PER CLICK with AdWords and I swear most of them had to be fakes. Now I pay about $0.005 per visitor and found a very easy way to make it profitable.

It's all about your expenses. The top selling company may not always be the best choice for you. Don't get caught up in using the expensive guys. Sometimes doing the opposite of what everyone else is doing is the best method. I lost a lot of money before I figure out I was going about it the wrong way. Just some friendly advice.

    Thanks for sharing buddy, when you say you spent a couple of grand, do you mean on your own sites using other sites to put your advert on? I have never used adsense but nhave thought about it a few times.

    Thanks again

    Sorry I'm a bit confused.

    Are you paying to have your ad on the top selling sites?

    I'm not an AdSense expert at all, I'm just trying to figure out how you lost so much using it, when most are using it to make money.

    Who are these "expensive guys" you were using? I can only assume, if you were paying $0.50 - 1.00 a click you were deciding where to put Adsense ads that linked to your site and you found the big companies didn't give you the returns the smaller guys did?

      Yes, I meant AdWords. I still use AdSense for revenue but I don't advertise using AdWords anymore.

    So you basically moved away from Adwords and went with second tier search engine PPC? Welcome to the club.

    Paid traffic is awesome if you can generate profitable campaigns. When you have your first successful campaign, Its only a matter of scaling it to increase your profits.

    Just remember to track your ads and tweak them for maximum EPC's. Just one simple tweak could turn a lousy, failed campaign into a profit pulling winner.

    Good luck

        Actually you can easily loose money with AdSense. Try randomly using the display network in AdWords.

            Warriors,

            Just to let you know I decided to follow through on this and contacted theomegaformula with a PM. He provided me with the e-Mail address to contact his supplier.

            So I contacted the traffic supplier and received confirmation e-Mail of my order and an update e-mail that they had started my order. This is a test for me so if I can remember, I'll come back and let you know how things went for me.

            I'm not an affiliate nor associated with the traffic supplier or theomegaformula.

            Ken

    Yeah I've heard of a few horror stories about adwords it's pretty dire actually. Google is only 30% of the traffic out there. I'm sure he is using PPV which is cheaper to test at least initially.

    I've been getting a lot of PMs about this but I didn't mean to confuse anyone.

    I'm not using any public PPC companies. I found a private traffic supplier that I pay $60/month for run of network worldwide traffic that works out to about 1k-2k visitors/day. The key is how you monetize it though. There's no PPC companies I've tried that match the amount of traffic for that price.

    For the sake of competition I'm not going to post the information publicly but if anyone wants to know feel free to PM me.

      The key with any type of traffic is how you monetize it. Generally if you're purchasing INT. traffic at those kinds of prices you're pretty darn limited to what you can monetize it with as well.

      Here's an awesome example of what type of offers immediately come to my mind when I hear about dirt cheap international traffic.

      EPC: 0.0016

    People search trust. And adword is the thing that is trusted. that's why people go for them and spend a lot of money. but most of them don't get success. so its better to find an alternative and start again.

      His comments are just close enough to relevant that he doesn't get bounced for spamming, but there's rarely any meat in them.

        Wow, that is quite an unbelievable conversion rate from such a cheap traffic source! From my experience, if you want to get a 90% conversion rate, you must target those longtail buyer keywords from PPC or SEO.

        Can you reveal a bit more information about your traffic source?

Is your traffic from PPC, PPV, Solo Ads, social media or any other type? Would be grateful if you can reveal a bit more information about your traffic source.
          I use several different methods, most of which you won't read about. I've developed the marketing and monetization methods myself based on the traffic. None of the traffic is PPC. I pay one flat price per month which turns out to be a couple thousand visitors per day then I just focus on monetizing those visitors the best I can. There's no real secret to it.

          If I bought the same amount of visitors from AdWords it would cost me around $15,000 per month.

          If you smell BS stop trying to sell people crap.

          The end game for me is giving people what they want, not trying to make a single sale. My 90% conversion rate comes from selling unique products to people that are already looking for them. If you're not doing it that way, you're probably doing it the hard way.

      The problem with most long tailed keywords is that they can't generate hundreds or thousands of visitors/day consistently. Consistency is the difference between making a profit and making a living.

I come back after a year just to find my ADwords account banned. So I asked them why did I got banned and they couldn't even give me an answer to that.
    So no more Google for me ever again!!!!

    It's all about your expenses. The top selling company may not always be the best choice for you. Don't get caught up in using the expensive guys. Sometimes doing the opposite of what everyone else is doing is the best method. I lost a lot of money before I figure out I was going about it the wrong way. Just some friendly advice.

    Ken,
    We are waiting for your review. Meantime, I had a look at his (theomegaformula's) posts in WF and found he has bought traffic from a service here for a similar price. And one of the reviews on that thread reads

    Ok, here is my review of this traffic after the first 24 hours or so:

    In my opinion this traffic is good for one thing only: To artifically inflate your Alexa rating. If you are in the dubious business of reselling websites with "traffic" as your only selling point - then yes by all means, this may be a good idea.

    But if you actually want the visitors to interact with your website and generate some profit for your business, well then it is pretty useless. Frankly, I believe this is bots, not humans.

    Yes, I received a steady flow of "visitors". So far so good. However, the supposed US/CA/UK/EU traffic has turned out so far to be almost exclusively from Indonesia, Syria, Ukraine and Russia, repeat visits from a limited set of IP's. Some of these IP's are listed as known proxies. I attach a statistics screen shot I made this morning, showing the last set of visitors.

    bayimg - image: junktraffic.png - free uncensored image hosting

    Every single visitor shows the same referral which is an unknown interstitial ad server with a domain name registered using Godaddy's "Domainsbyproxy" anonymizer service (and coincidentally using the same name servers as both the seller's traffic stat website and the sample client from the first post here).

    Not a single one of these visitors has taken any form of action at all on my site. None. I tested this with a very simple landing page with a broad appeal.

    As a comparison I simultaneously ran the exact same landing page (on another url) with another known "semi-junky" interstitials source: adf.ly, just to verify that my landing page would actually invite some sort of response from human interstitial visitors.

    Results: The adfly traffic was much more responsive to my landing page. I received a decent amount of actions from there, as opposed to zero action from the traffic sold in this thread.

    Anyway, if you want to inflate your traffic numbers in order to make sites appear more popular than they really are this may be one way to do it. But if you want to do real business with real visitors, don't bother."


    This is not the type of traffic that I am really after, and artificially inflating traffic for a website and selling it basically appear a perfect example of a scam to me. I don't know whether his source is something different from that but still I am skeptical about that. If something is too good to be true, generally it is.

    An important update to Warriors who are interested in the traffic. I have contacted the supplier and the price is $60 for 1 url per month. He offers you another url free as a bonus. I find $60 a bit pricey and decided to check out for more information about the traffic first before subscribing. I checked through theomegaformula's older posts and found the same supplier selling his traffic in this WSO thread:

    http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...r-quality.html

    I read through some of the reviews from the 7 page long thread and there are much more negative reviews than positive reviews. Guess I would stay away from the traffic.

    If I am not wrong, theomegaformula is a JV partners of supplier selling the traffic and using this thread to promote the service, which is illegal in the Warrior Forum. That is why theomegaformula has been banned.

      Sorry for the delayed responses guys. WF mods didn't like me posting information about my earnings and I got blocked for 3 days.

      BTW, don't make assumptions and post them publicly. Makes you look like an idiot.

      I use 6 traffic suppliers for my sites, and the only ones I mention to others are the ones that work for me.

      I'm only here to help and teach people how to monetize cheap traffic because there's a lot of people out there that don't know how.. and they also seem to be the ones complaining about worthless traffic. I've found that 99% of the time if real visitors are going to your site and you're not making money... it's your site or you.

      Yes, you are wrong. I've had DOZENS of traffic suppliers over the past couple years including several from this forum, other forums, and every single one of the top 30 advertising companies. I spend 5 figures every quarter on promotion, I don't spend it all in the same place.. and I obviously generate my own traffic from all of that. My primary advertiser I've been using since the beginning of this year doesn't promote their service and definitely doesn't promote it on wf as a jv, lol.

      Clearly you don't know what you're talking about and as for me being banned.. well.. once again, clearly you don't know what you're talking about. :rolleyes:

    I warned you, see my post above which contains a review of this WSO service.

    This is easily the best advice I have seen on this forum so far.

      Monetising that kind of 'traffic' is extremely hard. You must have spent years on learning how to identify who they are and what they want, and you must have sophisticated filtering systems and funnels in place.
      For the average marketer who doesn't specialise in that specific field, the return on investment will be ZERO.
      One 'good' thing is that it costs only $60 to learn that lesson.

        You're right. I did spend years figuring out how to monetize a system like this. That's the reason I figured I would help people learn to monetize this cheaper traffic instead of getting caught in the ppc gamble.

        There's no point in spending up to $1/click with places like AdWords when all those same visitors can be sourced by other advertisers for a fraction of the price.

        If you can't monetize a site to profitability with thousands of visitors a day then usually it just takes some changes to your site or business plan. I'll help anyone willing to help themselves.
