This seemed like the best place for this post...Please move if it doesn't go here

Anyways, I was thinking about using this service but was hoping to see if any of you guys used them before and if so what exp. have you had with them.

the script will not go off if there is a pop-up blocker.

This was a quote from Traffic Batch in 2009. I know I have pop ups blocked, but I don't know if that's the norm across the board currently.

This seems sneaky, so I don't like it.

I thought so too webfreak, and I saw that as well Steve. I tried to google their site but found no reviews, just ad posts on forums and blogs.

I'm giving them a try to see. I'll posts the results here.

Awesome...Let me know how it goes. What software/service you use to track your web stats?

HostMantis · Post #7 (**permalink**) 06-09-2010, 07:11 PM

Statcounter and AWStats

Do let us know how it works for you. I'm always very skeptical of these methods, but would be willing to give it a shot if you found it to be worthwhile.

Good luck!

I don't get into these kinds of paid traffic. How does it work actually? Is it a PTC program or PPC advertising? I read somewhere on the website about pop under ads. Is that how our ads will be displayed?

Ok folks. We've only used them for a little while now and have to honestly say, they are just like the rest.

TRAFFICBATCH.COM = A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY

If you are looking for "visitors" to make a hit counter increase, then it works. If you are looking for real visitors that actually browse your site and possibly convert to sales, then you're wasting your money.

All the "visitors" are unique, but time spent on site is "0 Seconds" and the bounce rate for all the "visitors" sent is 100%.

Seriously, don't waste your money on this garbage!

No problem! I'd hate to see a bunch of folks waste their money on garbage like this.
