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
Gareth

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.

Individual statistics (not aggregated) for 'local pack' and 'organic search results' when both on the same page
Hi, For a particular keyword combination we show up on the local pack but also on the organic search results on the 1st page. I have never been able to find out what the CTR, #clicks, conversions for this two different kinds of positions are individually. The aggregate figures I can find out in Google Search Console / Analytics, but I would like to know on an individual level as I am testing out different things. With the statistics on Google My Business I can't get along actually...no CTR as far as i know. Any hint? Cheers, Cesare

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.

Creating leads with minimal traffic
I'm working for a client who is in a very tight niche. They offer a service which can come as part of a new build or installation to an existing building. The problem is the the traffic volumes are very targeted and very low, but a single sale can be very lucrative. Another problem is that it is very difficult to determine who the converting visitor will be as depending on the potential project it could be an owner, PM, architect, designer and on... There are no clear cut decision makers, it's always on a case by case basis. Because of this the client is baulking at any attempts to gather contact details because they are arguing it may not be the decision maker and in their industry they know it will cheese people off parting with contact details and it "may not be the right person anyway". I am looking at encouraging exploring ideas based around a traditional newsletter, whitepaper, survey etc. Has anyone else had experience in this kind of scenario where search volumes (organic, PPC) are low enough that the timeframes for testing any value become uncomfortably stretched and even then difficult to determine any general trends?

Any PPC Companies out there who can work with small accounts
I have a story , 18 months ago we had our own PPC adwords account, we had been running at £3.20 CPA for quite some time and we were very happy. Sometimes CPA would go up , sometimes down, but not my very much. One unfortunate day google rang, and told us , that our CPA should ne £2.50 and that we needed expert advice that they couldn't actually give us, we needed an expert. To cut a long story short and after 5 very expert companies have messed with our account, we had varying results. One company left us with 2 leads per day at £10 a lead !!!! , one did better than that and setup a £3k adwords account using their expert advice, blew it all and said "times are tough" sorry !!! The last company was actually the best, great guy , but I think we are two small for him, we have varying results, one day we get 30 leads, the next we get 10 , one day its £3.50 CPA , next its £7.00 . But on the whole very happy with his initial work We just want a company that doesn't Lie to us , tells us straight , and can use their expertise to get us a CPA of £3.50 and help us get upto 50 leads a day, if not more. Thanks Hope that makes sense Nick

Can trackingcodes in your url be seen as duplicate content or break other rules?
I recently gave ReachLocal control to manage my Adwords campagne. I didnt want "Reverse Proxy" on so I decided to go with the Remote Conversion Tracking. So they track my website in every stap of the way. Therefor I had to place a Javascript on each page. But what worries me are these kind of URL's I see appearing in my Analytics account: /webpaginaname.html?scid+29903&cid=12343&tc+13012316371028544&rl_key=32850e0a2d4499e02a711d0b969044d2&kw+8307565&pub_cr_id=16701148613&dynamic_proxy=1&primary_serv=www.website.com&rl_track_landing_pages=1 Could this be seen as duplicate content by Google? Or could it break any other rule you know of? Should I be worried? Thanks a lot!

Recommendations for Books on Analytics, Ecommerce and Data Manipulation?
Having just moved into a position where an Ecommerce site is now a big part of my responsibilities I'm looking to get up to speed on the topic (been a while since I worked on a shop). Site is Magento based. I'd also like any recommended books on broader analytics and using/reporting data. Obviously finding books on these subjects isn't difficult, I'd just like mozers thoughts on any that are particularly good and more important still relevant ie fairly recently published. Quite broad topics these I know but open to any or all suggestions - however not too worried about covering wider SEO, more 'technical' guide style is what I'm interested in. Couldn't really find any threads on books in general so should be an interesting topic (I hope!) Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.
