For better or worse let’s launch this venture (review my site)

For better or worse let’s launch this venture

One of the projects I have been working on is a site called Bux Sense this site generates what I like to call generic traffic to websites. While the idea of getting paid a fraction of a penny to surf websites may not appeal to many in industrialized nations it does appeal to people in some places. Because of this you can bring huge amounts of traffic to your site in an extremely cost efficient manner.

Ask yourself would 100,000 visitors to your site increase your Alexa Ranking? Would it increase your search engine placement?

What I think is unique about my site is that it develops REAL traffic. There are hundreds of sites out there like my site. Mine differs in that after the viewer has looked at your site for 30 seconds they are given a link that they must click in order to get paid. When they click this link they are driven directly to your site. This to my knowledge is a first in this industry.

I’m in no way saying that this site Bux Sense will help you to increase your sales. Nor am I saying that you should use this site to drive people to a parked page to generate advertising income. If you do this you will get banned from companies like Godaddy and Sedo.

What this site does and the only thing it does is drive generic traffic. I’ve played with it for a month in an attempt to learn the ins and outs before I was willing to promote the site. I feel that generic traffic has real value so I’m now putting my name on this company for better or worse.

Give me feedback! What do you think of the site? I’m going to make a separate post this weekend giving away free traffic to YE members. I look forward to hearing from you all!

Q’s from a YE User

We do not lend our user database to anyone to prevent SPAM. We do not use any type of pop-ups. We do not use any type of malicious tracking software. If one of our advertisers is caught using any programs that we consider to be harmful we immediately remove their ads. We also remove any and all sites that are just parking sites with listed advertisements. We do that so we can try to keep our name clean when it comes to working with traffic generation.

We do not track any bookmarks made by users. I’ll have to ask my developer if he can script that though. The only true value that I found from my one month trial was that it did increase my rankings.

My blog Everything you need to know about auto auctions, vehicle donations, non-profits, and the life of an entrepreneur Alexa Ranking: Within 10 days of publishing my blog I went from not being ranked to 3,267,255 and a week later was at 2,406,274

This was all done with only 10,000 site visits. Not to bad of a ranking for a brand new blog.

The key is that you can not ONLY depend on a site like this. If you have the right site you can use a site like Bux Sense to create a buzz for your company. You should still have a goal to use traditional methods to promote your site.

Bux Sense also now has an Alexa Ranking of 321,011 with 318,203 page views in less then 60 days. So the site can deliver on its promise to deliver traffic to your site.

Most GPT Users will NOT use AlertPay. You may want to look into paying by check or using Paypal as another payment method.

My only reply is that there are quicker ways to get higher rankings than this way. May be this will appeal to Third World countries.

Ok im going to have to disagree with the last two comments about this site.

MsDani: If you know anything about GPT sites which I don't think you do you would know that paypal no longer allow these sites to use their service. AlertPay is the new way to pay members and if you check any of the biggest GPT sites like Bux.to their all using alertpay. And alertpay have said that ever since paypal said no to all GPT sites, their membership has gone up by thousands. This is because most members prefere to be paid via alertpay now as there are lower fees.

secondly: hugh009: Name me a site that can give you over 4000 unique hits in one day for less than 20$ you tell me that. You may wish to do it the normal way spending thousands on advertising, and thousands on Search Engine Optimization, but for most webmasters they like using this and it is prooving to have effect. Don't ditch it till you have tried it.

Please give me an example of a quicker way to get higher rankings. Please also note cost considerations if you would please.

Hey Roger,

I was curious as to how effective your site would be at generating traffic for me, so I went ahead and ordered 500 hits yesterday. I haven't yet seen any of them come through and I noticed that my link isn't on your site (I don't know if it ever was or was already removed). Any idea when the traffic is going to come?
