Building a List and Traffic Scams

There are a lot of promotions that make promises of “guaranteed traffic”.   You don’t want to become one of the legions of business organisation owners or cyberspace marketers who get tempted by offers of “guaranteed” traffic for one very low price. A traffic scam is more probably the truth.

Thousands of visitors or more are sent from these companies every week to your website, without you getting at least one reader or even fashioning a single sale for your internet marketing online efforts

Exactly what is going on is what you are probably wondering. A lot of the traffic is generated by pop up windows appearing on other sites . A pop up window is provided for your website to be loaded into. So, somebody may be surfing the net and your website pops up below the site he or she is searching for. Basically this results in having your website sent out to thousands of untargeted customers and more then likely not going to be your customers. The key to success in list building is creating a list of TARGETED customers.

Targeted customers are customers that are interested in your topic and will most likely be interested in purchasing your product or products.

Targeted customers have, in some way, offered their selective information (email address) and by doing so have shown that they are interested in one of your products. Let’s say you sell woman’s exercise clothing.  You definitely want to produce a targeted list of consumers, generally women, interested in buying woman’s exercise clothing through internet marketing online.

Building a list of customers not targeted towards your specific niche, your business unfortunately will be going nowhere. Customers who are not interested in your niche, will not be buying anything because they are not targeted, and Traffic generating popups will just be a hassle to most people.

You also don’t need to be paying your email autoresponder software company your hard earned money for a useless list.

In concluding be thrifty where you spend your money and who you are going to trust.
