Comments on: Revisitors.com Case Study, Part 1 http://www.onlineopportunity.org/revisitorscom-case-study-part-1/ A Review of Ways to Make Money Online Tue, 08 Feb 2011 15:47:59 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9 hourly 1 By: Jay http://www.onlineopportunity.org/revisitorscom-case-study-part-1/comment-page-1/#comment-64617 Jay Thu, 21 Aug 2008 18:51:59 +0000 http://www.onlineopportunity.org/revisitorscom-case-study-part-1/#comment-64617 Michelle, I had the thought that your "free gift" might be a discount coupon, if your store supports those. Maybe a page that says something like, "Where is this? The site you tried to go to doesn't exist any more! Sorry about that, but here's a 20% coupon you can use here to get some truly awesome jewelry." Keep it light, acknowledging that they ended up somewhere different than they expected. Then direct some Revisitors.com traffic to it and see if you get any sales using that discount coupon. I still think it'd work better offering a totally free gift for an email submit, but maybe if they're already clicking a jewelry related link they'll bite on a discount. If you give it a try, let us know how it works out. Michelle, I had the thought that your “free gift” might be a discount coupon, if your store supports those.

I'm still leaning toward the service being legit, but that the right way to use it isn't sending traffic to the home page of a web site. This has to be considered totally untargeted (and, in one sense, hijacked) traffic, so offering a free gift with an email signup should be a good bet (and the page should acknowledge in some way that the visitor ended up somewhere other than where they expected). I keep meaning to do a test along those lines, but just haven't gotten around to it yet. I've done enough tests at sending traffic to various home and affiliate pages to know that that approach isn't working. Hi Michelle, thanks for letting us know your experience so far!

I am getting alot of traffic to my jewelry website www.buyrightjewelry.com/sassycreations however, I am thinking these are autosent. I check my sitemeter consistently (anyone can check it, it is at the bottom of that page-just click on it) Alot of the traffic appears duplicate and they are not even on the page for more than seconds. I am hoping that I am wrong because I really trusted this site. I guess only time will tell. If things don’t get better, I will cancel my account with them after this month Check out the site meter on the home page of www.buyrightjewelry.com/sassycreations and let me know what you think Tks in advance [I signed up with Revisitors about 2 weeks ago; however, I am starting to feel a tad skeptical.

I was playing around with some Javascript link cloaking in this post, but finally decided it wasn't worth the trouble. I saw your purchase come through, thanks! I hope the traffic does well for you, and will be looking forward to your analysis of the results. Jay wrote:

I purchased 5k visitors to a homemade for adsense site I put up about 7 months ago. I am curious how google sees the referred traffic coming from 1 spot. I will update everyone with a post on my blog halfway through the campaign.

I had stayed up until 3:00 A.M. and had to leave the hotel at 6:00 A.M to catch my flight to Japan. So I was not thinking clearly. My apologies.
