Actually, this is not quite true - Anyone who knows how to send spam or a half-decent website can also set up a computer to keep on hitting a site to drive up its traffic and make it look like a large number of people are viewing the online ads.

More traffic, real or fake = more money from the advertisers, simple as that.

For those in the habit of doing this, I would advise them to stop using old machines. Its embarrassing when the browser / os stats are listed and Windows 95 accounts for 90% of the inquiries.

I wonder if there is a place I could go to find good internet traffic. I joined some traffic exchange programs and find that they are ineffective. All you do is click for credits but you don't get results from advertising with these traffic exchanges.

Bing enters the search arena to grab some declining advertising dollar and in turn will decline in traffic. Not looking good for Redmond.

Its no wonder that markerters are moving online and video is certainly where its @! Video is far more valuable than other adverting mediums because it so targeted...you are able to communicate your offering by speaking directly to your potential customers on demand, and track/measure perfomance!

Its no longer about a holiwood production or needing to spend enormous money to stand out!
Look out for a site called
