Free traffic! - but is it worth it?

There are so many free ways to get free traffic on the internet, not necessarily organic traffic but at least its free right? LOL

My son had recently been using a traffic exchange called Traffic Ad Bar. He had to visit other members sites first before getting visits to his siteand these are the things he has concluded:

  • You do get some decent traffic as a free member but after a lot of work.

This was the amount of traffic he received to his site after looking at 50 other websites! Imagine that, you view 50 websites and you only get 4 people coming to yours, yeah no thanks.

  • The traffic is low quality and that means you will barely get any sort of conversions (if ever) because the aim of everyone else on that traffic exchange is to get as much traffic as they can. No one on there is looking to buy anything or sign up for any sort of platform.
  • Like I said above, the traffic is not organic. It is called referral traffic.
  • As soon as you stop surfing (looking at other websites on the network) you will no longer be receiving any traffic to your website as well. You will see a steep nose dive in your google analytics.
Final Words

Please take note that he was a free member on the platform so maybe the paid membership can do better.

If you are looking for referrals to your WA and conversions you are better off going through the training here at WA.

I am not a fan of traffic exchange websites to begin with so I wouldn't even think of joining one. I would rather stick to the training we get here at WEALTHY AFFILIATE, work hard and be patient. One day I will celebrate with you guys!

But hey, if you are really desperate then maybe you should look for one to try out for yourself, I am merely just another opinion. Cheers.
