Blogging for Dummies: Are You Still Paying for Traffic?
Posted by Codrut Turcanu / Blog for ProfitSep 17
If you ask 100 marketers, 50 will tell they like AdWords, 50 prefer free advertising.
Which one are you?
If you use “paid traffic”, then that is a very big mistake. If I am wrong, at least answer this EASY question:
what is the biggest advantage “paid” advertising gives you over “free” traffic?…
and I tell you why I prefer “free traffic” over “AdWords”, or any other form of paid advertising.

Once again – here’s the question:
What is the biggest advantage “paid” advertising gives you over “free” traffic?…
P.S. I hate to emphasize again and again (why a blog is better than a site) and why blogging is NOT an option.
P.P.S. I am a ferm believer that when you use blogs with e-mail marketing (aka your list), sky’s the limit. I mean, up to 85% of my online income comes as a direct or indirect results of e-mail marketing. Blogging is just a platform, yet is crucial in the way you use it.
Most marketers are using blogs like an online diary – and publish in RSS, no real autoresponder on their blog. What a BIG, very BIG mistake! They’re losing 85% of their potential income…

Speed.
When I was testing a niche or want to get an idea about the quality of a traffic in relation to the product I promote, I use paid traffic, specifically AdWords.
At times when SEO is too much work, I can complement the traffic with pay per click, while monitoring the performance of my site in the organic search listings.

#Hendry Lee: you could be as “speedy” as with AdWords by doing 3-5 targeted comments on 10 niche-related blogs and test your conversion too

I prefer using free sources of traffic since it is, after all, free but I like using paid sources of traffic since you don’t have to do as much work to get the traffic as long as you use the right keywords and the write wording on the ads.
