Traffic is one variable

A provider controls the send and agreed traffic delivery. Your page, offer, follow-up, price point and sales process determine much of what happens after the click.

Fit changes everything

A small, well-matched audience can outperform a larger generic one. Ask whether the list’s interests map to your offer and desired geography.

The funnel must be ready

Slow pages, vague headlines, too many choices and broken forms waste paid traffic regardless of source.

Judge with a scorecard

Track unique visitors, leads, lead cost, downstream actions and revenue attributable to the campaign. Evaluate multiple stages instead of a single vanity metric.
