Earn Money Easy - Bad Internet Traffic - Does this Exist?
But how far does this theory go and when does good traffic go bad? My visitor count is now "respectable" and I now make a "respectable" amount of money. And I made a little bit of money, my visitor counts started off small. There are many fundamental rules about internet selling and one of those general rules of thumbs is that it is very likely that any respectable website can make 1-2 sales (at least) per 100 visitors. One of the most important lessons that I learned is that traffic equals sales! Too, i have learned a lot of about making money online and I have become moderately successful at it, during my last 8 months of being an affiliate marketer.
What I do care about is that I PAID for this click. Traffic is traffic (even if someone may be upset with this). I do not really care that it came from an adult website. I do to some degree, in this case. Do I care, secondly? So my first point here is that you do not have control at times where your ad may appear in the world wide web! This triggered an Adsense ad on an adult website. ). " I later learned that this rather tame word "fanny" has different meanings in other countries (we are talking about a global economy here! . . I did some research on why my link was found on a certain website and I found that one of my content ads from Google had the line "Get Off Your Fanny. ). I got an email from a very angery person stating that my website was nothing but a fraud due to the fact that they got my link from an adult website (why they were on this site in the first place is left to be seen, annecdote #1: About 3 months ago!
). This is not a good investment and I made sure that this site would no longer post my ad (and I did change the wording to remove "fanny" from the equation! 29 of those people "bounced" (meaning they stayed on my website for less than 5 seconds), i received zero sales and additionally, out of that $3. I received about 30 clicks at $0.10 a piece (a total of $3), sure enough. I did some careful research on the statistics of those who visited my website from this adult website. This is when good traffic goes bad!
Does this make classified ads "bad traffic". About 145 of those visitors bounced, i went and researched my classified ad statistics and sure enough. I then went and checked my sales: Zero additional sales. ) WOW! My visitors to my website jumped to an additional 150 unique visitors per day (after the initial postings. I was kind of shocked what I saw, the first time I did this. Annecote #2: One common and highly publicized way of attracting traffic to one's website is through free classified ads.
Not money, the investment in this case is time. It is ROI (return on investment) that truly matters. But who cares, this additional traffic hurts my visitors per sales statistics, further! Time is money, to post classified ads requires time and (if you are strapped in time like I am). How much is your time worth? The biggest question here is time. That is definitely worth something. That means I paid zero dollars for each lead, ultimately. I got two of them to sign-up for my opt-in letter, and out of the 5 visitors that did stay on my website. Remember this: these ads are free. But not really, it can!
Must make yourself, the online marketer, that is a decision that you! Is an hour of posting classified ads worth more than a new blog entry or a review of another product? Free traffic sometimes come at the cost of time, but beware. All free traffic is good (no matter where it comes from). Traffic only goes bad when you pay for it and it does not produce sales, though, in my opinion. Traffic is currently king on the internet when it come to making sales.
