When doing arbitrage what best sites to go to get traffic to your arbitrage sites?

I know you have: 7search.com, searchfeed,adwords, what would some other ones that a pretty good?
 


Clicksor sends me a lot of traffic, but doesn't convert well for me.

Miva is the same way, but it has converted on a couple of my niches.

Adbrite. Never tried it, but someone said the other day that it is working well for them.

Adwords would be hard to get cheap traffic for arbitrage. You will have to use longtail keywords.
 
just 7search for me right now.

heard lots of bad things about miva and a few not-so-great things about searchfeed.

what other 3rd tier search enginges are there besides 7search?
 
Miva advertises on searchfeed, so I think they are very similar. It sucked ass on 3 sites, but converted decent on one of my other sites.
 
From my experience with it and from everything I have read is that 7search is the best and then play around with the other ones to see if it helps. 7search doesn't manually approve keywords, so that helps, but their reporting sucks.

so adbrite would be 1st option after you have done your homework? So after you have done your searching and experimenting....do you get good quality traffic and good conversions..

Come on dude! I hate to put it so bluntly, but the answer is staring you in the face! Shoe says Adbrite has worked the best for him. You just have to TEST TEST TEST with different niches, templates ad placement, and ad copy. And make sure you record your data (impressions, CTR, eCPM, the works) for each site you make. Then sit down and figure out what worked best. After you have analyzed your data. BUILD upon what works.

DO IT! :zzwhip:

seriously testing is the key... i went through literally 500 different adbrite sites before stopping and settling on the 5 i run with now.

make sure you have done your homework on geotargeting and dont waste foriegn traffic.

Be prepared to lose money. Consider it your tuition fee.

Thanxs again sound like i have some work to do and some money to LOSE!!:cool-smiley-008:
 
With Adbrite, It takes a while to find out what sites are worth advertising on. The stats help but can be misleading. I always look at all the other Adbrite ads running on a site when deciding (whorish stuff mostly). Will your ad copy stand out or become wallpaper when its in the mix?

I don't suggest doing too much run of network...some horrible worseless forgeign language sites might eat up half your budget even if you geotarget. ie. A chinese site that runs on a server in the netherlands is accessed by a korean dude that uses a US proxy server. Stuff like that happens often and screws their fragile system.
 
I've used 7search, and SearchFeed. 7Search converts better than SF, but SF sends a lot more traffic. SF sends a decent amount of traffic, but there's a lot of fradulent traffic, but still enough real traffic to keep it profitable.
