Wondering what kind of traffic 10KHits brings to your website? This 10KHits review tells you exactly what to expect from this company.
An Overview of 10KHits
If you are here reading this review, you are already familiar with one of the harsh realities of marketing online or anywhere really.
Without traffic, you do not stand a chance of making money.
It does not matter how great the quality of the solution you have is, you will not make any money if you do not have traffic. Period.
How do you make money providing a solution when the people in need of that solution cannot find you?
Some people have ideas, solutions or products they would like to recommend but they do not have the audience to recommend these things to. 10KHits is one numerous programs online that offer to provide traffic to your website. Is this the ideal solution you are looking for? Let’s find out.
What is 10KHits?
It is a traffic exchange network site that has been around the block since 2011. The owners are not revealed anywhere on their website nor in their Whois registration. However, I can tell from their Whois details that the individual that registered the website was based in New Zealand.
How Does it Work?
Describing this is going to be short and easy: This is a network website where members click and view ads and receive other people’s clicks and view in return. Basically, you are not going to be getting any real traffic that could convert. All you are getting are members from the platform clicking on your site because they have to.
The first thing you will need to do after creating your account and filling out your profile is to download the 10KHits exchange application software that works with your operating system. You find all the ads listed on this exchange software and earn traffic points for every 10-second visit. These traffic points allow you to create your own ad campaigns which lead people back to your site. Simple as that really.
Let’s Talk About the Benefits they Claim
I want to show you how these benefits do not really help you or your website…
Real Human Visitors: Well yes, these are real human beings that will be visiting your website. But are you looking for human beings that click on your website because they have to or human beings that want to interact with your website and listen to what you have to say? How does someone who only clicks on your website to earn traffic points help you make money?
Boost Your Alexa Rank: I am yet to understand people’s obsession with Alexa rankings. Their claim that “Alexa rank is a site’s traffic rank compared to all other sites on the web” is flat out wrong! Alexa rankings are calculated based on the number of people that have the Alexa toolbar installed on their browser and yes, more visitors will improve your Alexa rank but how does an improved Alexa rank without sales help you or your business?
Increase Website Value: Take it from somebody that has sold a few websites, this kind of low-quality traffic will not increase your website value in any way especially when the site is not making money.
Lower Bounce Rate: I beg to differ here but I think this will largely increase your bounce rate. The people viewing your site do not really care about your site. They just want to be there for 10 seconds, get their points and get out.
Skyrocket Web Stats: If you set your ad campaigns for 20 – 60 seconds, people will only stay there that long because they have to. Them staying that long does not really increase your chances of making a sale.
No Footprints: This seems black hat to me but I will not talk too much about it. You can hide your traffic sources if you want but isn’t the whole point of wanting traffic to make money off what you are offering. How does hiding your traffic sources help you achieve that?
The truth is these members are marketers like you. You people all want the same thing. You want traffic points, they want traffic points. That is why all this clicking happens.
The Only Pro
Looking at it on the surface, having traffic should be a good thing. If what you want is for people to just visit your website and you do not care if they are non-targeted or low-quality traffic, then 10KHits is one place that will make you happy for sure.
The Cons
The “Traffic”
You might be considering this program thinking you are getting real traffic to your website, when in fact, all you are getting are some of 10KHits members clicking on the ads you posted on their network.
Apart from the poor quality of the traffic, there is still the additional challenge of getting people to even click your ad in the first place. There is nothing you can do to make your ad stand out from the rest of the pack, so what if people decide not to click on yours?
It Could Hurt Your Site
Yes, you read that right. You went to 10KHits to improve your business but it could actually hurt your website.
Search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo consider metrics like bounce rate when they are trying to determine rankings. If a whole bunch of people come to your site, spend a few seconds and then leave without interacting with any other pages, what does this tell these search engines about your site?
It tells them your site does not provide real value to your readers.
Memberships
10KHits has a few membership options available:
- Free Membership: 100 traffic points after signing up
- Pro Membership: Costs $10 per month and offers 50,000 monthly traffic points
- Business Membership: Costs $29 per month and offers 200,000 monthly traffic points
They also offer booster packs which are optional packages that supplement the package you already have…
Closing Thoughts
Even though 10KHits does bring people to your site, the traffic is poor quality and will not lead to any increase in earnings.
Instead of spending time and money trying to get non-targeted people to your site, why not join a great online business community where you could learn SEO techniques that will lure free targeted traffic to you? I have never had to seek for traffic but traffic usually finds its way to me.
Don’t believe me? Did I bring this post to you or did you find this post yourself? Food for thought 🙂

This post is very useful
I’m glad I could help sir.
Thanks man you really saved me some money ….Do you have any recommended sources for gaining traffic? My facebook ads account was disabled last year and i need an alternative
I think your next alternative would be paid advertising (e.g Bing Ads or Google AdWords). The issue is you need to know what you’re doing, else you would lose money. If you do a little bit of digging into setting up successful paid campaigns, you should be getting some great quality traffic to your site.
Paid Search advertising is actually a better system than FB ads when it comes to conversions.
You’ re giving terrible advice.
First of all, traffic exchanges are a mega million dollar industry that has been around since the very beginninv of the internet.
Its a massive interconnected network of tens of millions of marketers who hate paying for paid ads like Google and Bing in the first place.
How can you teach “nobody makes money off of this traffic?” When so many people have made it rich.
Everyone involved knows to market traffic, email, and marketing tools on traffic exchanges to get lots of clicks and conversions. Occasionally, someone might buy a health offer or another business opportunity.
I enjoy surfing traffic exchanges because I get to see most new opprtunities before everyone else on Facebook, Youtube, etc.
As far as getting your ads to stand out, that is based on design. Not traffic source.
How do you get your ads to stand out in Facebook groups, Instagram Stories, Facebook groups, or email inboxes?
Hi James,
I’m not giving terrible advice. Take it from somebody who currently has 5 websites with varying levels of traffic, does local SEO consulting for lots of small businesses, is a full-time Digital Marketing Specialist at a reputable company, getting your traffic numbers up is almost pointless. Getting quality traffic — the kind that is likely to take the action you want — is everything.
Your last question is completely uninformed. It’s not uncommon for me to get such questions but I’m surprised to hear that from someone who is speaking like an expert when it comes to web traffic. When it comes to Facebook, Google and Bing ads, the most successful strategies are based on user intent. On 10KHits, it’s simply: visit a few sites so a few people will visit your site. Do this enough and, in your own words, “someone might buy a health offer or another business opportunity”. Riding your luck is not a strategy.
I just join 10Khits this morning and planning for a pro account. But with your review, it open my mind and gave me time to think twice. Thank you
The pleasure is all mine 🙂
hey thanks for your post….quality reviews
My pleasure 🙂
You do realize I can see your IP right? Stop spamming posts on my website. Thank you
LOL
Getting a real organic traffic that will convert to slaew these days are very difficult, maybe if you can give us clues to it. but thanks for your review on the 10khits stuff. though i use it sometimes but i may reconsider again. weldone
1. My strongest recommendation is to optimize your site for a targeted audience. Write unique and quality content that provides a solution to the needs of your target audience. My best part of this is its longevity. You write the content once and you’ll get steady streams of traffic and sales for years to come pretty much passively.
2. Another way of getting free traffic is by using social media. You could do this by sharing your website to your friends on social media or you could start a page and grow a following. Your social media following is hardly ever dependent on the number of people you know but rather how often you post engaging content.
3. This one isn’t free traffic but it’s targeted traffic. Instead of paying 10KHits for fake traffic, you could just create a Facebook campaign and define your target audience. It’s better money spent that paying to have 10KHits members come to your site. The problem with this method is it could very well be hit or miss if you do not know what you’re doing.
There’s lots training on getting free traffic or paid targeted traffic here.
Great!
Very useful review,thank you so much
You’re welcome!
This is a total waste of money. Not reliable traffic source.
What a quality and real review.
Thanks for this.
Yes, I agree, it is good to know, good reading mate.
Hi thanks for sharing your views and information on to earn traffic exchange but if all is fake and wastage of time and money then why it is practising by many people.
Hi Jessica,
People use it because they want to get traffic to their website. They don’t stop and think about what kind of traffic they would be getting and what the traffic would do for them.
Depends on what you want. You could pay 10KHits and get thousands of visitors and get zero sales or you could use SEO, PPC, Social Media or niche-related forums to drive qualified traffic to your site.
Hi , Thanks for your great review
let me give my opinion based on personal real experience.
all those exchange traffic methods are not effective but we can use it to increase Alexa ranking which is required and important to approve your site at many advertising networks , in addition to that it is a real traffic,hence let us assume that you bought 100K traffic and if 1-5% look or click at your site and found it interesting then you gain new visitors and those visitors can turn to real customers in the future.
the most important to reduce the bounced rate by choosing visits more than 45 seconds and better to be direct traffic or social , i avoid referring from Google or other sources as it can be known as fake.
i gained lots of traffic from this way .
Quality advertising networks don’t care about your Alexa rank. I know this because what I do online is build niche websites and monetize them. I join affiliate programs and affiliate networks before I even start getting any reasonable amount of traffic.
So basically, you’re saying it’s okay to pay 10KHits to get 10KHits members to click through to your site and then hope that some of them might become customers in the future. You don’t control who comes to your site, so what if they never convert to customers?
I disagree that it reduces your bounce rate. In fact, I think the opposite.
They could stay on your site for 2 hours and it still wouldn’t improve your bounce rate. They land on your site, stay there for as long as they need to within the page they landed on and they leave as soon as the required time is up. Point of entrance is the same as point of exit, which is called a Bounce, which increases your bounce rate. In other words, the more traffic you pay for, the higher your bounce rate.
Dear Amedu
Thanks for your comment.
As i said previously, my comment is based on real practical experience, let me clear it:
1. If you would like to get real advertisers who will place their ADS banners on your site then they will check many things like ALEXA ranking , DA , PA , back links and others, hence if you dont have good ranking then no one will come to you.
2. It is really important to have real content updated daily and do the right SEO to get organic traffic , in addition to be active on social media , Reddit , Facebook , Snap-chat and others are important to gain traffic.
3. Comparing to cheap price you pay to exchange traffic sites , then if you gain 1% real traffic then it will be great , so from 100K traffic monthly if i get 1000 visitors monthly then cool even if they dont convert to real leads , but they are real visitors and if your site is valuable then maybe few of them will be real leads.
4. Dont think too much about bounced rate unless if you depend totally on Google to get the traffic but if you diversified your source of traffic then sure you will get more.
By the way : Google change algorithm frequently.
Hi,
I have a small doubt. I have a blog that contains health related stuff means articles. How can I earn money with 10khits and google will not catch us by doing this balck hat stuff. Can you please explain it will helpful to me.
Hi Karthik, sorry for the late reply.
I wouldn’t mess with black hat stuff now if you’re looking to make this work for you in the long run. It’s one of those things where it might seem like it’s working for you now, but when you get hit you get hit hard.
Focus on creating quality content, leverage social media and as you get consistent with publishing quality content Google will start to show you some love in the search results and as you gain rankings, you get more visitors and people linking to your site. It’s a snowball effect but you have to play a patient game.
Hope this helps.
Hello every one here,
I have just make a new website recently,this is a free website,
without my personal domain.
I want to link this to my adsense.
I dont have any exp about all that.
Here i feel many experts avaible.
I want to use 10khits and i will genrate organic trafic from using all social media platforms to.
And i will try to make good contant to upload on my website just for experiment..
My question to you all good experts
It is ok if i do all this?
you have any suggestion for me?
What is the right way,thanks.
This post is very useful
I really like 10k hits its an easy interface, hope it works. gonna pro
I wouldn’t suggest you do that but good luck to you.
I was thinking about signing up in 10k hits. For that reason I have came to your blog searching in google. But now i think i should not sign up in this traffic exchange network which is total wastage of time. Thanks a lot for this helpful post. Keep it up.
My pleasure Shafiul! You’re better off focusing on social media marketing or learning SEO or content marketing. There’s no benefit in paying for traffic that you know beforehand will not convert.
Thanks for this article, It helps me a lot but i have a small doubt that does it increase our keyword rank or not.
Cheers Mohan!
very useful
HI,
I was going to invest some money to get traffic before reading this article. I was aware of some problem might be associated with this technique. But you have raised a valid point which I was missing the “Bounce rate”. You are right Google is smarter than what we think.
Thanks once again
Regards…
Hello everyone
I was just wandering 10 k hits has other options for traffic its social media and custom which you can put another source of traffic which you have and geo and organic so either one of these you are saiding it will not bring really people to your website.Because I was trying to find someone that have actually made money with 10 k hits with different traffic methods they provide.
Thank you for great info.
i am using it for my amazon affiliate link will it be helpful for that
Running a news website generally, where no conversion required only information is passed for such websites 10k hits is good. Am i right or wrong?
I wouldn’t go as far as concluding 10KHits is good for news websites. However, if there any kind of site where 10KHits would work I would say news.
Reason I can’t conclude is simply because members visit your site because they have to, not because they want to. SO even if they’re on your site for a few seconds/minutes, they probably won’t read or engage and that doesn’t bring any value to you.
Hi some of your post is correct for sure but not all .I use the timer set to 60 seconds only
add more than one link from the main url so this will not effect your bounce rate or hinder
it.Now as for Alexa rating its a very good thing as you can sell your add space easier on ad networks etc and at a better price but i would not do this with google adds .
Also its good for flipping a domain with a better Alexa rating .
It ain’t all bad .
Hi,
What is the Alternative Way to 10khits?
Please suggest.
Thanks
If you have quality content that is optimized for conversions, Google Ads is a quick way to drive users with intent to your site. The catch is you gotta learn Google Ads first, else you’ll lose money.
The traffic is significantly lower than requested. I set up the each URL to get 200-400 click per hour, instead I got only 111 clicks for the day with a visit duration of 16 seconds, instead of the requested duration between 30-60 seconds. Plus, the Representative, Jerry was quite rude.
the point is that 10khits.com , does not deliver the amount of traffic what they show in them Statistics ,
if you sit as 100 traffic per day you will receive only about 20 or 30 max
it is just scam point website
gonna delete my account today
Thank You For Your Valuable information. It will really help the visitors out there who wants to get instant traffic but are not aware of the consequences or results.
Thanks theopportunityscout, I almost bought 1ohit traffic for website. Thank God I saw this post on google, I would wasted 29 dollars for craps.
powerful enlightening info literally was just about to sign up to 10k but the bounce rate info provided here makes perfect sense as to why i should not sign up Thanks a Million
Hey Amedu,
One of my friends used 10khits and told me that it increases his Adsense revenue so it is possible or not?
waiting for your reply
I can see how that would happen. AdSense pays for impressions, so it’s possible. With that said, don’t expect to make a substantial amount from AdSense unless you have massive traffic coming to your site.
