Paid traffic or organic?

What tragic source do you make the most money from? I went from $xx days with seo traffic to $xxx days with paid. Does seo eventually catch up?

#organic #paid #traffic

The big advantage of Organic traffic is that it can be done in a free way. It will take more work but once you got it, it's rather easy to maintain.

As for paid traffic, it's good if you can profit from it. The main issue is the cost and (sometimes) the conversion rate.

There are also other free sources that aren't organic that are great money makers.

  Advantages to both - if you have the money and not worried about the cost you can purchased paid traffic. If you don't want to spend the money you can just work harder to get organic traffic.

I find the conversion rate much higher with organic SEO, yes it takes longer and requires in depth research and work, but if you can do it yourself, its cheaper too!

If you know what you are doing you can go with paid traffic from the start then once your LP is converting put all profits into long term seo

I agree, paid traffic is fast but SEO (free organic traffic) is a great long-term model and much more targeted. It depends on your advertising budget. You will invest your time, your money or both.

Depends if you are making sales from the paid traffic. As always it's good if you can get sales from free traffic cause if you can make money with free traffic, then you'd be getting more with paid traffic.

Organic is FREE but takes time. Also can be shut off with the switch of an ALGO shift. (which usually happens even to good sites)

Paid traffic can actually be instant but you need to know exactly what is converting so you can know where to spend your money.

i prefer organic for long term business and profit instead of paid traffic is just for short term.

  Personally I do both.
  
  I use adwords to target a keyword I think is profitable, making sure to limit my spending.
  
  When a keyword starts to make me money in adwords, I throw more money at it and step up my organic seo and reap the rewards from both methods.
  
  If a keyword does not prove profitable in adwords I simply move onto the next until I find one that does then focus my attention to it.
  
  Good luck!
  
  Thanks

Definitely organic. Who doesn't love free traffic without any effort? The only effort is during the beginning and maybe small 1 hour per week maintenance or maybe even 1 hour every 2 weeks maintenance
