 Is there any good place, where we can buy some targeted traffic? After hearing horror stories about how people lose money on ppc, this seems to be the safer option.

 You can try using USfreeads.com, but as far as "buying" targeted traffic, I wouldn't count on it...

 I wouldn't outright buy targeted traffic. They tend to send bots. If your pages are relevant, you'll get targeted traffic from search engines.
 
 Most if not all targeted traffic sellers are scammers. Just continue spreading your links through out the internet and folks will show up on your site.

 This may be a stupid question.. but how does anyone MAKE traffic go to a certain site? Either people are looking for a specific item or peice of information or they aren't? How do 'they' strong arm them into clicking on a certain site???

 Find out where your visitors are to be found and advertise / promote your website there.

 I wouldn't buy targeted traffic, you can generate it yourself.  I do alot of free and very low cost advertising and get great results, I just don't want to pay for something that I can do on my own right now.  Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

 Why don't you start off with free traffic?  That's what I'm doing now and I see the potential already.  The link is in my sig.  Goo luck to you!

 Quoting: southbank63 how does anyone MAKE traffic go to a certain site?
 They send bots and/or paid-to-surf folks. I doubt that the paid-to-surf folks pay much attention to many of the sites they visit. They may not even be targeted traffic.

 The idea is to get targeted traffic to your site. If you create your site with relevant content and keywords, then they will WANT to click through to your site.
 
 To your success,
 
 Michael

 if you are just staring out, l would not recommed you spending you hard cash on buying traffic. write , write and write content s, write using keywords people are searching. use woodtracker, yahoo, google tools . if you are like me then you donot need to go thru all this .

 Hi, my question is what do you do that is low cost and effective?
 
 I understand free like my signature link and craigslist but I am willing to spend a little money if it works.
 
 Thanks.

 Google Adword is a excellent way to buy targeted traffic based on the specific keywords from search engine and relevent webpages, eg..if you want targetted traffic towards your website for keyword " rental car in New York". then your ad will be displayed on the google search pages as sponsored links along with organic search results, when a person search for that key word in google search/on the webpages having content relevent to New York rental cars.
 
 Google Adwords is a keyword dependent bidding system. Learn and understand it very nicely, otherwise you will end up spending more money. Alternatively you can hire a Adword Representative who will oversee your entire adword campaign. Nothing on the web can bring in targetted traffic on your website other then google adwords. yahoo has similar system in place, but if you ask me I will go for Google adwords
 
 Thanx

 Generate your own traffic... there are many people that will want to make it hard for you to generate your own qualified leads, but it is actually relatively simple once you learn a couple of simple tools. The best leads that you will ever speak with are the ones that find you and give you a call.
 
 I hope this helps
 Nik

 Joshua Stein......I do quite a bit of article marketing and press releases.  They are free and I'm in google's top ten for the specific keywords within 24 hrs.  Hope that helps!

 Google AdWord is a good way to but traffic. But it's very costy if you are a newbie. Unless you have sufficient knowledge about how to select the right keywords and how to bid for them comparatively, you would end up with throwing in a lot of money with no good results. The learning curve is too long and complex.

 I am involved in a business where I am
 paid to advertise my website.  This is
 the best thing I could have done.
 
 It only takes 6-10 minutes a day
 and I am getting paid every day
 plus getting a lot of traffic to my
 websites.

 Hi Manowr,
 
 I gave up on buying targeted cos its not working for me.
 
 I use articles to drive traffic to my websites and I have seen wonderful results. This is what i do or rather what is working for me.
 
 1. I use a keyword tool to find exaclty what keywords people use to search for the product I want to promote
 
 2. I then analyze the competition by looking at the number of websites that are already promoting that keyword. There are couple of tricks and tips that i use to see if I will be able to penetrate the market and get position one in google..and other search engines
 
 2a. The number of websites promoting the keyword must be under 5million
 
 2b. The top 2 websites on organic rankings must not have the keyword as part of thier URL.
 
 3. If the above conditions are met, i them write an article using the keywords. make sure you use long and catchy phrase keywords, for example, if your keyword is "dog food", your title should be something like "10 Tips About Healthy Dog Food Sectrets" or "10 FAQs About Dog Food". People like reading tips and FAQs.
 
 3a. I use a tool to write my articles cos english is not my first language.
 
 3b. I use another tool to change the contents of the first article so that i have a number of different articles about the same keyword. This is a gold mine...
 
 4. I then submit those articles to different article directories, not forgetting to include your landing page in your articles.
 
 5. Sit back, relax and smile all the way to the bank.
 
 6. Repeat the process with a different product.
 
 7. To make sure that stay on position one on google for a longer period..I use another tool that automatically creates 300 backlinks to my articles.
 
 Hope this helps. I have tried my best to make this as short as possible.
 
 Shakes

 pcwork:  Find out where your visitors are to be found and advertise / promote your website there. What in your opinion is the BEST way to find out where your target market is likely to visit? I have some ideas, but would love to hear from someone with more experience than me. Another thing, what, in your opinion is the best way to determine WHO your target market is. That may sound like a stupid question, but let me explain. I am in MLM, have a very good opportunity, products, etc. Conventional teaching says to use the "if it has a pulse, market to it" method. However, i find that produces lots of what i call "tire kickers" and not  "car buyers." Purchased leads can be ok, but most perform very poorly. I have begun studying this Magnetic Spnsoring by Mike Dillard, and it looks promising. But, i would entertain other ideas as well. Thanks.

 Google now has an option where you can pick the sites that your ad goes on. Its a pretty good way to get a targeted audience

 Buying traffic is like buying leads, its a suckers game.
 Create your own leads is the ONLY way to go.
 
 Dont be afraid to do it , to make big money you have no other choice!

 As far as 'buying' traffic is concerned, Google Adwords and Yahoo are the best  - they work well and I get plenty of leads from them.
