How NOT to Get Targeted Traffic...
You've seen the headlines all over the internet...
10,000 Visitors for Only $9.99!
Get 10,000 Unique Visitors for Just $12.99!
For someone like yourself who is struggling to get traffic to your site, it sounds almost too good to be true. Well, that's because it is.
Will you get a ton of traffic from these services...sure you will. But what kind of traffic?
What you will likely get is 10,000 hits from people who are not at all interested in your site. They are probably either surfing for cash via a reward site of some kind or they are participating in a traffic exchange in which they get hits based on how many other sites they hit themselves.
You will get a huge spike in traffic, but each visit will only last a second or two and you're unlikely to see a single sale from it.
No matter what kind of product or service you offer, you want targeted traffic. You want unique visitors who are looking for what you are offering and are already in the frame of mind to buy.
I say save yourself the trouble and put the ten bucks toward something more useful. Just keep adding content and features that your users will find useful and the traffic will come.

So true. I wasted almost $100 before I realized I never made a single sale from all the "visitors" they sent me.
