Sales Per Visit Ratio When Buying Traffic
Tuesday, December 19th, 2006When you finally get too impatient for building natural links for organic traffic, you might think of buying some qualified traffic. Doing this is more risky but could pay off easily. Many people get fed up with buying traffic because they pay and never see results.
I found this simple guideline for buying traffic that can help you. Then I will talk about comparing cost to actual revenue and how to simplify everything.
Here are 5 tips for buying traffic first:
1. Always spend a minimum of $30-50 for 100,000 visitors.
2. Make sure all the visitors voluntarily came to your website and where not forced to do so.
3. When advertising in ezines, never use free ads because those ads are among other “free for all” ads.
4. Visitors should have to type in a code to make sure they are not robots.
5. Make sure the visitors that come to your site stay for more then 30 seconds or else they could be robots.

Okay, now onto cost and revenue. If you spend $100 on advertising and you sell a $20 item, you will only need to sell 5 of them to make any income. Of course websites can monetize in other ways with adsense and a newsletter subscription that can pay off later but let’s make it simple.
As long as you make 6 sales, you make a $20 profit on your investment. $100 can buy you anywhere from 100,000 to 1,000,000 visitors using ezines, PPC, and other paid traffic. If your website can convert 1% of the traffic from the $100 into sales, you could make thousands of dollars. The $100 you spent wouldn’t matter at all.
