11 Comments on Traffic Bug Case Study & Results

I got the Traffic Bug, too! on Thu, 17th Sep 2009 5:47 am


Yes, from my experience, those numbers are low. Also, what aggression level have you set up for those projects? As for the RSS Submissions, I’ve emailed support asking about that before and they said they’d be putting up a column in the UI or releasing a list after they’d settled on a list of the better RSS directories that worked(?). But, it would be nice to see which ones and how many RSS directories are being submitted to…

Traffic-Bug has just opened it’s doors less than 45 days ago! So we are a very new service and I agree there are a lot of things to add to the software!

Right now we process all the customers requests and filter out which ones are top priority and work in on those first!

I am sure you will be impressed by the results as the software has already helped hundreds of beta testers and does right what it says on the box!
And with it’s crazy low price of $25 it’s a pretty simple choice.

I look forward to releasing more and more features as the weeks go on and would like to thank you for taking the time to evaluate my software!

Very nice blog you have here!

Also, you can sign up for a free account and get a free affiliate account as well!

Thanks for stopping by Michael.

It’d be nice to see the number of RSS aggregators increased to a higher number and to actually see them in the SERPs, like the feedaggs and what-not.

Not sure if you’re going to receive this, but it would be great to see Mister Soft, Mixx, Technorati, Redvine and Blog Catalog included in the social bookmarks somehow.

I’m reviewing this service per a reader’s request but also because I want to do some RSS marketing on a few sites, so I chose Traffic Bug over BadAssRSS. If you could include whatever aggregators BadAssRSS sends to in your service, that’d be great. BadAssRSS by itself is like 15-17/month, whereas Traffic Bug is only slightly more…

Thanks,

Dan

Aggression level is high, since I think this service is somewhat anemic and lacking power, but may have some nice ,,,slow….. long-term effects.

I don’t expect much from 300 social bookmarking links, never mind 20, and I’ve never done much with directory or search engine submissions since I’ve ranked well for a lot of competitive terms without having to do that.

Considering getting SocialBot now, which scans your whole site and scrapes up your site urls and does Captcha solving to auto-login and/or create accounts.

I was wondering if you could tell me whether social bot or bookmarking demon is the better bookmarking software?

Actually, something like Traffic bug or The Link Juicer would be better than those two because you get certain number of sb links/day, for an extended time period as opposed to one time “blasts” that SBD and social bot do…

Is there a limit to the number of sites that you can promote with Traffic Bug each month?

How many pages can we promote for each blog on one account before it is considered spamming?

Great site – full of interesting information!
I have recently started using Traffic Bug too. I use Social Bot, but I stopped because all the links happen at once – not over time. I was having to remember to go back every few days to enter a new URL. I don’t want to SPAM my links and get them banned.
So – that is the main thing that drew me to Traffic Bug. Well, that, and the combined RSS and directory submissions.
I started using it about ten days ago and I am pleased with the results so far.

Hi Jennifer, thanks for stopping by.

What kind of results did you see within 10 days?

Or by results, do you mean, you like seeing the number of things TB did for you, like submissions and what-not?

Just trying to figure out how to test this out in 10 days as opposed to my usual 90!

Thanks,

Dan

Hi Dan,

its me again.

I have been with trafficbug for the last 45 days. Maybe I just share some basic figures with you:

Aggression Level: High
Number of URL submitted: 25
Number of Bookmarked: 100
Total Bookmarked: 2137
Number of URL Directory Submission: 1556
Number of Search Engine Submission: 139

To-date: only 2 backlinks have shown up.

I am currently a paid member.

How did Traffic Bug in my opinion?
1.) For the number of work done, I would say its pretty decent.
2.) For the backlinking, so far not impressive.
3.) Has it been able to make some impact in my ranking, no.

But I am willing to give them abit more time to be fair, Trafficbug is a relatively new software and they will be increasing quite some new features in the coming weeks.

BTW, Dan I really appreciate for your advices. Its very honest and I have learned quite a lot from you. Many of the top marketers out there all so eager to make money from us but what so call their top customer service support are only for product related issue not discussion.

Hi Pat, thanks for the update. Unfortunately I really don’t have the time to test TB for 50 different urls, as it seems like the only redeeming quality this service might have is for using their Related URLS feature. I’ve seen better results with TheLinkJuicer, and that was a battle to get to 50 urls being auto-promoted which is their max.

I don’t ever use backlinks checkers since the data being reported is inconsistent, unreliable, and really doesn’t matter to me since SERPs are all that matter. If you can tie increased SERPs to a particular method/program/product/service that’s the real test proof imho.

TB does site and rss submissions with some SB-ing thrown in as we all know, and if they increase the number of those submissions and backlinks, great.

But of what value are those things, really? They could increase it 1000% and it might not matter
