Does traffic from Pirate sites convert ?
 

hi all.,

my imaginary friend has around $ ??k and he would like to invest in buying traffic from sites like thepiratebay , kickass , isohunt and blah blah.

so he would like to know

Does traffic from Pirate sites convert ? at all ?

whats the ratio can he get if he place banner on pirate site's adult category stuff , redirecting to landing page and then cam site ?

Thanks for your time.,

you can also suggest some other methods , not involving pirate sites .

if you think traffic doesnt convert , then why are they still up ? who is financing them ? and why ?

Ironic if it did convert, eh?

Isohunt is gone, so is Pirate Bay. Forget those sites man, conversions suck and why support them?

i am curious , i want to try , why these sites are always top in serp. so how does their traffic convert with cams ?.

I've got the traffic you want. Let's talk!

If you're doing it for branding.. I wouldn't count on converting any of it, though.

any contact info ?

Both alive and fine.

btw. someone been buying up the adspots for years,so i guess they do convert

thats what i was thinking , i see they have most installs , so they are promoting some PPI program.

they need to pay for server and other costs , if there are any. so it gotta convert, i just dont know the ratio.

anyways, thanks for your input.

I suppose you meant that your imaginary friend wants to try. :)

I have no experience about pirate site traffic, but the users are for sure very diverse bunch of folks. So, you can probably sell them anything starting from Mercedes-Benz to How to pirate more effectively-eBook. Not to all of them, but since it is diverse group, to some of them.

For example my Somali friend who has been rumored to have been visiting such site, told me that there are for example wide variety of ebooks, those are clearly targeted for folks who make a decent living, more than a decent living. So it is not just hippies living in welfare visiting those sites.

Though, there might be some legal risk in doing business with pirate sites.

They are visiting to those sites because they don't wanna pay.
Free stuff is all they ask.

I don't think that is the whole truth. And anyways, they pay for something, unless they live under a boat.

Low conversion, but high volume its usually better then low volume.. Worked for me, two of my former pirates are now my best affiliates and are only posting approved clips.... Win win for both.

i guess ,these are the same people who pays for the cyber locker services., aka file sharing sites to get full length content. so its not like 100% of their traffic is broke and looser.

just gotta sell them right product.

as someone who has done VERY large amounts of media buying for over a decade on every possible type of site, my experience is the quality is very low. That is if you are selling adult, dating or cams. I can't speak to games or other products.

i didnt get any pm, just checked, here on gfy and even on icq.

The traffic quality tends to be lower primarily because it includes a huge number of underage people clicking on ads. Just because someone is "looking for free" doesn't mean they won't pay. Hat idea has always been the mantra of loses in this industry. From the salty days of wares sites to password sites to tubes;, they pay and have always paid. Torrent sites have high volume and price is ALWYS relative to quality so quality is not overly relevant in media buys as costs per clock is always determined by those who convert it and earn the highest earnings per click.

Can it work with cams? Obviously... quite a few cam sites buy torrent traffic. Can you make it work without losing $5,000 or $10,000 before actually figuring it out? Unlikely . Buying traffic is a skill. Like any skill, it takes time to learn. That costs money, time, patience and requires a huge amount of determination and drove to make it work. Qualities and traits 99.9% of jack offs in this industry will never have.

Holy shit... Sent from my phone.... So many typos and auto-correct crap.

Odd, I resent the PM just now though. Lets talk!

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

thanks for insights man, i really appreciate it.

exactly. the people in these torrent sites are looking for free stuff. I'm one of these guys by the way.
so expect nothing.

He said, based basing his statement on absolutely no research or experience at all....

If they've been selling ads for the last 15 years, it's not because the traffic has no value. It would seem that any reasonably intelligent person would immediately grasp that.

Yeah, but you probably won't find free chicken nuggets from there, so for example chicken nugget ad might be well in place.

As well, when I am browsing free news from local newspaper's website, I ain't buing news, but there happens to be a shitload of very expensive ad positions, those advertise all kinds of stuff, but not news (well, the newspaper advertises its own subscription).

A wee scurvy pirate once told me that yarr it can convert well but 'tis extra naughty

Commercials on TV are worthless because I'm just there to watch the free show along with every single viewer.

pirates will rob yo ass
