I was scammed by one of the "selling targeted traffic" companies and i would like to warn you all about it.
Since i dont want to post their name, i can just say they are top 5 in Google for the buying traffic KW's and that the name startes with rev.....

They are scam
Traffic is not real
Using some pings system and pop unders maybe

Dont buy traffic there ! Dont buy traffic anyhow

Well this is what gives the traffic brokers and vendors bad name. What was the landing site you sent the traffic to?

If they scammed you, why not say their name?

Better to pay for leads...

Please give us a better hint to know better and keep away. What was the service you specially paid for? PPC, bulk traffic, traffic exchange hits, email solo ads? Please specify!

Re- Buying Leads
I never got good experience with leads! Not many reliable sources!!!

Why can't you just say their name so that we would be aware of them. I searched using the kw by I can't find a name starting with rev.

I have never tried buying traffic, anyway.

Yes, some sites that offer "10,000 Unique Visitors for $5" do not provide actual real unique traffic. Some of them are just ping hits to make you think that you are getting real traffic. So you gotta be careful when doing this. Personally, I wouldn't use any of them even if they aren't just ping hits, it does nothing for you.

I agree with activegamez here.

I don't trust these websites that claim to send (from some unknown or made-up place) 50,000 visitors to your site for almost nothing.

In my view, stick to established and trusted PPC providers (like google), so then at least you know you are getting what you paid for (with full stats!).

Don't you think they would benefit themself with that ammount of traffic? But you go and check their SE or Alexa stats and it just stinks! Just think that if they can deliver 50,000 for $5... And sell several packages a day... That's a lot of traffic. Then why are they not getting a share of that too?

Just get traffic naturally. Paid traffic does nothing, apart from raise your Alexa rank. But that's pointless anyway.
