Please can anyone recommend any GOOD 'TRAFFIC BUYING COMPANIES ?
-
Hi Guys
I really need some help here
I am looking for some good traffic buying companies where we can buy traffic from that can will help us to generate leads from our own website.
We want to 'buy traffic' that is targeted and generate leads from our website.
We are running Google ad words but it is now becoming more and more expensive to run!
Please can anyone recommend any good companies ?
Thanks

I have a client challenging me with this issue right now. Despite me working with the client doing things in an ethical way, they are keen to engage a business who offers this service of being able to offer 'PAID TRAFFIC.
For around $70 dollars they will send according to them TARGETED | QUALITY TRAFFIC. The client decided to go ahead and sign up and within 24 hours the site went from having had around 200 sessions a day to over 2000 in just 24 hours. Analytics saw the REFERRAL channel become the leader in bringing traffic and started listing lots of IP ADDRESSES.
The company also say there is no spam in the traffic they send to your site. They also say these 'site visitors' are 100% genuine and not bots etc.
I am personally a bit sceptical about how this will affect the site building its relationship with Google over time. So, is there evidence that some companies are getting better at delivering this type of service and the technology makes it much more ethical and worth buying into?
Of course - what happens when you switch the service off?

Hi there
I want to change your question a bit, so I will answer this question:
Can anyone recommend any good traffic opportunities?
The reason being - as everyone stated, don't utilize "traffic buying" companies - there are no "good" ones, usually resulting in spam traffic and links that will get you penalized by Google. Simply put, if it sounds too good to be true, it is.
That said, there opportunities to get your content and your website in front of the right people and audience members. A couple of things I would suggest would be to check your local SEO presence and audit it. You can utilize services like Moz Local and Whitespark to help with your citations building and categorization - making sure you are appearing for the right searches in your area.
I would also look at content discovery platforms like Outbrain, Taboola, or others. These platforms, while not super beneficial from a SEO standpoint, can get your content in front of the right audiences based on their interests and viewing history, and can potentially help with brand building and awareness.
Make sure you are utilizing your social presence as well - engaging your audience as much as you can and creating a human element to your website and brand. Learn as much as you can about your audience; be where they are and create the content that they want to engage with, the way they engage with it.
Lastly, I would check out the Whiteboard Friday called Wait, Paid Media Investments Can Yield SEO Value?! - there are some great tips and ideas in that as well.
If you are going to spend money for "traffic buying" services - make sure that you take that budget and invest in honest brand building. All of the sources above can help your website and brand grow in an organic and natural way that won't trip spam signals. Stay relevant, stay fresh, and stay honest. That's the best investment you can make.
Hope this all helps! Good luck!

Yes I have now contacted a few affiliate companies so that should help...

I cannot really see a place in the market for a real one unless it is tied to an affiliate program on your end. Have you thought about setting up an affiliate program?

Hi lesley
yes I do know a lot of it fake but would like to think there some genuine companies out there ?

You do realize that bought traffic 99% of the time is bot traffic by farms in SE Asia that never actually look at your site, correct?

Hi ikkie
thanks for the response
i am not sure if cash back sites would really work for us as we are not a product ecommerce site, we operate in the financial services markets
thanks

hey
i don't think thats a good idea to buy traffic from any one for any sort of e-commerce business or site. However, i would strongly recommend you to use cash back or rewards companies to get leads as these companies works very well in this manner. Moreover it will be good for your SEO point view.
You can also buy leads from companies those sell leads buying a traffic may not a good idea.

Is anyone aware of stats stating how many people abandon pages the deeper they get in a site?
For example, let's say someone enters via a landing page, and instead of having a form there is a button to a form. What percentage of people will click the button and fill out the form vs if the form was right there on the page? Basically, I am trying to figure out what percentage of users do websites lose for every click a user makes on the site.

Buy Facebook Likes for visitor trust?
I was curious if anyone ever considered buying Facebook likes to increase visitor trust. Our homepage has only 75 likes even though we are a leader within our industry. A smaller competitor has over 1,000. If all else is equal, I question whether this helps to influence trust amongst visitors and whether there is any value in doing some Fiverr deals to buy FB likes. My concern would be to be in Google's bad graces by them thinking we are doing this strictly for ranking. However, now that Google has declared that social signals are not a ranking factor, I feel this is less black hat and maybe something that Google won't care about. Thoughts?

How ppc affects organic and direct convesions and traffic.
Hi, I was wondering what percentage of organic conversions is related to ppc previous traffic. I mean, when we evaluate the results of a campaign, we take a look at the cost per conversion in analytics for one specific word. Lets say that we know that for PPC campaigns we have the following data Adwords / PPC Visits: 4500 %conversions rate = 1,15% Cost per conversion = $10 ORGANIC Visits: 1300 % conversions rate = 2,10% DIRECT Visitis: 1000 %conversions rate= 2,54% It is obvious that if I cancel the adwords campaign part of the organic and direct traffic will drop too. So, I was wondering if have you ever done this calculation and if you know what percentage of the organic a direct traffic is related with de ppc campaigns. I mean... Let's say... "20% of the ppc traffic will come back to the website as organic traffic or direct traffic", or something like that... Anyone??? Thanks 😄

Please Settle a Bounce Rate Debate
Here's the Question: If a person clicks a PPC ad and hits the landing page, and the landing page has a form to fill out embedded in it without having to click, does that count as a bounce if the person leaves the page immediately after filling out and submitting the form or does the submission negate the bounce tally? Hope this makes sense and thanks in advance.

Can Adwords campaigns affect other campaigns performance?
I understand that keywords and adgroups within a campaign can affect the performance of other keywords within that parent campaign. I was interested to understand whether campaigns in my account can affect one another. I have an adwords account with around 30 campaigns. Some are heavy hitters and others get minimal to 0 traffic. Will these low quality campaigns drive up the costs of my high end campaigns?
