Hey MATT. Thanks for sharing your insights. Indeed, I do agree with you that paid traffic can cause more damage than good. Just see what William’s experience was from the comment above. It is really bad that the internet is full of people like Devon Brown. They don’t care about their students and what damage they will cause. The only thing they care about is their own profit. However, there are different, honest paths. The best one so far is Wealthy Affiliate. This platform offers step-by-step training on ORGANIC TRAFFIC( that will create a business on a sustainable basis and for years to come). Moreover, there is this amazing 24/7 community of 2.5 million worldwide ready to help newbies with whatever question or trouble they might have. If someone wants to learn affiliate marketing, I think it is no-brainer.

Thank you for stopping by and leaving your comment William. So, sorry to hear that you had this kind of negative experience with paid traffic. Unfortunately, BOT traffic is what would most likely happen if you just pay random solo ads. Even though it is a known fact, crappy product owners, in this case, Devon Brown (he is not the only one) will not tell this to their students. This immoral behavior is just another fact why I don’t recommend joining. But please don’t feel bad because you fell for their promises. You are not the only one. You learned your lesson and now you know what is not working. What is well working, is to create a business on a sustainable basis, with ORGANIC TRAFFIC. The most common way to achieve that is to write for SEO. Best news? There are training programs that will teach you that!! My recommendations are Affiliate Lab, Location Rebel, and Wealthy Affiliate. Contrary to The Easiest System Ever and similar get-rich-quick schemes, you won’t hear how super easy it is to create an online business. Because it is not easy. But with training, community, and your dedication, it might be super simple. If you want my further guidance, you can reach to out to me. To your success William.

About paid traffic, I am sorry to admit that I did try it. Yes, I certainly did get the traffic, but it must have been BOT traffic, which I was not aware of until you mentioned it here. So thank you, I have learned a lot. What happened is that Google Adsense, on my website stopped showing ads because they said my traffic was suspicious. So, there you go, another reason not to pay for traffic.

Matt
