If you pay for 100,000 traffic hits to your site that are pretty much forced to land on your page, more than likely you aren’t going to land a sale for it. There are plenty of advertisers that will do this. Such as making you sign up on a traffic building list where people are forced to click on your link, just so they can earn a credit for it to get traffic back to their own site. Or joining and paying for an MLM type traffic builder where member simply passes their site around to other members who desire more to sell than to buy. These sites can have as many as 25,000 members (so claimed), but all they are really doing is advertising their sites to other members while trying to make money from one another. As far as I have seen, normal outside web traffic or non-members rarely see these advertisements, if ever. Personally, I think best advertising for any web site is word of mouth. Start locally by spreading word and grow from there. Use flyers, penny saver papers and of course business cards and spread them all over your town, and county if necessary. Put a magnetic sign on side of your car and give relatives and friends some business cards to pass around. All it really takes to get started, is a few people who know a few people and so on. But above all, don’t get discouraged, because it can take up to a year or two for a website to really take off. The most important thing is traffic, traffic, traffic. Because more you get, bigger chances are of getting bigger and better sales. Good luck!
