My guess is that nobody actually has any numbers to back up their assumptions.

i watch my daily bookmark count as it's told to me by my stats. I know - not day to day - but month to month that the cleaner my site is the more traffic via typeins and bookmarks I seem to get. it doesn't seem to affect trades one way or the other though, and my sales don't seem to be effected by large increses in traded traffic.
in the TGP game you need to get infront of the surfer FIRST - that day. How do I know this - by my own sales and the fact that people pay HUGE dollars for the TOP/FIRST listings on TGPs and don't care about the rest. why? casue it's the first link a NEW surfer - a bookmarked or type in one - sees. - a traded surfer has sceen a ton of porn that day already and is really only good if they bookmark the site and come back another day FRESH- least that's my experience has told me and how the ENTIRE industry BUYS traffic on the most part.
but you may be right - we might all be stupid and don't have a clue what we are doing.
course if your business is about making money today at the expense of any future traffic tomorrow I'd TOTALLY agree with the idea of pounding the hell outa the traffic.
