Udimi Vs. TrafficForMe
We know you’re always looking for new ways to drive traffic and that’s a good thing. While we want to be your top choice, we know diversification with traffic strategies is your best plan.
Let’s dig into how most people use solo ads: T4Me and Udimi.
What is Udimi? Udimi is a solo ad marketplace that profits from sales of traffic inside of its infrastructure. By providing a review system, they give the appearance of a curated setup.
What is TrafficForMe? We are more like a concierge providing you with protection and service you can’t get elsewhere. We charge a touch more, vett every traffic-sender, and thus guarantee that any clicks you order from us are actual people who want what you have to offer.
Can Udimi work for you? Of course, any real email traffic can work. Most people find that out of 10 providers on Udimi, they will find 2 or 3 good ones, 2 or 3 bad ones, and some just so-so results.
So, here’s the formula most likely to work on Udimi:
Can TrafficForMe work for you? Of course, we can.
There are some obvious differences in the checklists above. You may feel like our TrafficForMe list is biased, but that’s not true. We designed our way to be better in as many ways as we could.
Most importantly, we’re able to stand behind our traffic because we work closely with each traffic provider, many of them have been with us for 5 or 6 years, and we are constantly monitoring to make sure the traffic quality for any of our publishers remains as high as possible.
We do charge a bit more, but if you average out the good and the bad providers on Udimi, it actually comes out far less expensive in the end. As with anything on the internet, be careful, even the sellers with with seemingly great reviews might not be selling real traffic.
The Downfall of Solo Ad Sellers?
Greed can take over anyone who sells anything, but skeptical markets are more likely than others. This is because murky markets are easier to rip off. As our founder has often been quoted, “this industry is where the uneducated meet the unethical, and sometimes it’s the same person.” So, you really do have to be careful or you’ll get ripped off without realizing it.
Something else we’ve witnessed is that solo ad sellers go bad often. Even the good ones. This is why you have to stay on top of your tracking. At T4Me, we do sometimes see this happen even with our most trusted publishers. When this happens, we immediately do what’s needed to make it right with the customer AND we have a 3-strike system with our publishers where they are warned, suspended, and eventually kicked off our service if violations continue.
This can happen by sheer neglect or it can happen because of greed. The temptation to send bot clicks (fake traffic) is always there. It may start as a tiny percentage, but every fake lead you get is more profitable for the seller.
What begins as temptation becomes the sending of 50% or more fake leads so the seller can offer a “guaranteed” optin rate. (Yes, beware opt-in rates that are TOO HIGH, this is actually a red flag towards bots.)
Due to the nature of any email list/offer/market, it’s nearly impossible to make a promise of any kind of result. Even if your freebie is perfect for a list, nobody can realistically predict the behavior of people.
People surprise us more often than not…
We’ve seen some awful stuff from solo ad sellers. Circles of reviewers that give each other the ability to keep on selling bot traffic to unsuspecting customers like you. Scammers sell clicks, never deliver, disappear, then return as someone else and do it again. Hundreds of clicks delivered with zero optins (probably bots that didn’t follow directions) and so much more.
The risk is really high if you buy solo ads from a normal solo ad seller.
At TrafficForMe, we cost a little extra because we take that risk and make it minimal. If there ever is an issue, we make it right.
This is important: Your followup matters almost as much as your traffic source. It’s where you make your money!
Depending on how much you’re buying, you’re going to pay between $ 0.40 and $ 1.00 per click. You’re generally not going to make that kind of EPC (earnings per click) on your list-building funnel.
Yet, your followup is probably some copy and paste set of emails you got from someone that was lazy. All it takes to stand out from the crowd is a few smart changes to generic email sequences.
When building your follow-up, do these things:
The simple truth is that solo ads are a smart way to build your list and make some sales along the way. Especially if you want to do it fast. TrafficForMe is a better place for you to do it because we’re the only way to legitimately cut your risk to a level that’s fair to you as a consumer. We stand behind each and every click that is sent because we only work with publishers we trust.
If your landing page sucks, we’ll tell you. You won’t find this anywhere else. When you submit your landing page, our sales support team will look at it and make sure they feel it is a proper fit for the traffic you purchased. If you attempt to drive our clicks to a place where it’s unlikely to work out in your favor, we’ll tell you. No solo provider will do that for you.
We actually match up your landing page to lists that have responded well to similar ones before. No Udimi seller will do that.
Obviously, we think we have a better solution for you. We’ve been doing this since 2013 – you don’t stay in business unless you’re truly a trusted resource. If you haven’t tried our way, that’s something we invite you to do right now.
