Wheres the best place to get dirt cheap traffic?

12 years ago

The problem with "dirt cheap" is thats it's usually "****e and worthless"

You can always buy 10's of thousands of visitors from people on fiverr and similar sites but you will likely get 99% bounce rates and visit times of less than 5 seconds.

What is the aim of your traffic? Do you actually want it to convert or you just want to bump up some figures?

Thanks

I found the cheapest, best, "usable" traffic at 7search.com
be sure to set the country that you are interested in. Or if you are just looking for traffic count, chose a lot of countries.

Where does the end user interact with 7search?

I get where google content and search traffic come from. I get where PPV traffic comes from but not from 7search. Is there some search engine out there behind ask.com that people are using that is powered by 7search?

Thanks

7search is a search engine with hundreds of smaller search engine affiliates similar to google. They use similar adsence adds on the searches.

The thing is, the cost per click can be from 1 to 3 cents (of course more) For me 7search works best for:
* building list
* cpa offers- the best offer I had was for scholarships
* for creditable traffic to build ranking (semrush and alexa)

damn...I wish I had an affiliate link to send you through (just kidding)

another good thing is you can direct link to an offer.

What I do is, Lets say I wanted to promote an auto insurance offer. If you used google adwords you could spend a fortune. Even in 7search it could cost you more than you might make....so I would use key words like autos or cars for sale. I figure if they are looking for a car they are going to be looking for insurance. any way they key word car or auto for sale is like 3 cents to be in the number one position.

anyway you get the idea.
7search is just another search engine like bing or google with their own advertisement network.

Thanks Mike!

I already have an account but with answer this helpful I would have gladly used your affiliate link ;-)

Does anyone know some of the smaller search engines that are using 7Search? Would be interesting to see what the demographics are of those users. I can't imagine anyone using anything else other than bing or google.

One of these days I'm going to spend some time on ask.com and also kick the tires on 7Search.

Thanks

Hey Vikram,

If you would like I can share a partial list of our partners who display our 7Search.com advertisers. We work with a network of over 600 partners. Very few people search from 7Search as opposed to those partners of ours. I think you mentioned that you already have a campaign with us. Email me your username so that I can take a look and we can potentially set up a call. bstanley at 7search dot com.

Brad

Thanks

For getting cheap traffic, one do not need to find the place. As make a list of the site that has low quality and easy to put your link. So as on such low quality sites, it will be easy for you to get the results from and you can get the cheap traffic also.

Thanks

BTW - my cheapest sources of reliable traffic are:

- Buy Sell Ads
- Banner/Sponsored Ads on niche sites

Buy Sell Ads is pretty self explanatory.

The other tactic is to really research and understand your niche. Find the forums and blogs that are highly trafficked in your niche. If you've done a good job of niche selection then you'll find a lot of these things are just not being monetized at all.

Research their demographics and traffic (alexa and quantcast) and approach them for advertising opportunities.

Be persistent and flexible in your approach. If it's your product, sometimes they'll just say "Hey - 50% commission for each sales? I'll promote it!". If your just the affiliate then you'll want to pay them monthly.

I've gotten banner ads placed on some highly trafficked forums in my niches that have worked out well for me. $200 for the year ;-)
