What do you consider quality traffic?
Is it hard links? Search engine traffic? Purchased pay per click? ...?
Every time someone is complaining about bad ratios there are 10 people telling them their "traffic is shit" or not quality. Which is usually not the case.
I believe all US traffic (or tier 1 countries) is quality. The most important factor is the delivery method. If you have annoyed the surfer or tricked them into your sales pitch or tour then you have "created" shit traffic, even if they're from the US.
It is better to have banners/links that get a low amount of clicks and aren't misleading. For example a banner or text link that gets 30 clicks a day and converts at 1:100 is much better than one in the same spot that gets 200 clicks a day and converts 1:1000. Most importantly you will make more $$$, and you're also not wasting traffic and saturating paysites.
I know everyone likes to keep their secrets, but I think helping everyone convert their traffic can only help the industry as a whole. There are far too many people with a lot of traffic who just throw it at something semi-related and take whatever conversions they get. If 10 sites trick a person into viewing a paysite then that surfer will always have a negative thought about the site and will never join, however 1 good sales pitch could have had that same person dying to join the site.
Death to shitty sales pitches!
