What\u2019s the difference between paid and organic, and how can you implement them in your affiliate strategy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, whether you are advertising your own product or another business, you need to understand how traffic sources work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will be answering all of these questions and more in this article. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a traffic source?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The traffic source is a platform that generates traffic (paid or organic); it is where you monetize traffic that comes to your page or how people get to your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are an affiliate, the traffic source is the place bringing people to your offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The traffic source is the origin where people first see your product, offer, or ad, and click on a display banner, search result, email, and so on. Every time users find your website, they are coming from somewhere – they saw an ad, or a referral and that is basically the traffic source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paid (PPC & PPV Advertising)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Paid traffic is the one that comes from paid ads. Ads usually bring traffic fast but at a higher cost. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The benefit of paid traffic is that you have a lot of flexibility in targeting your ads to the audience that has the best chances of interacting with your ad and converting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PPC and PPV are charging methods for paid ads that define when you pay for traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
