Welcome to the "Web Projects" forums. Before you post, make sure you've selected the correct category based on the size of your project (in US dollars), or whether it is a partnership or "looking for work" request instead. Observe the guidelines for this section:
To all thread starters, check your "pm" box for responses, as that's how bidders will be communicating with you mainly using. You can turn on new pm notification by going to "User CP"-> "Edit Options"-> "Receive Email Notification of New Private Messages".
To respondents, avoid replying to a thread with a short generic response like "pm sent" as much as possible. It is pointless and clutters up the screen.
To respondents, don't reply to a work request with a summary of your resume. If you're not willing to spend the time to at least read the request and respond specifically to the request, then don't reply. The Web Projects forum isn't a place to get your resume/ portfolio posted on as many threads as possible, it's for the direct, human interaction between coder and client. Members who blanket the forums with their resume replies will be treated as spammers and banned.
To all thread starters, please update your thread's prefix to "resolved", when you've found a coder for your project or partnership (or wish to terminate the request). This is so coders don't waste time bidding on an invalid project. To do this, click on the "Edit" button under the first post of the thread, then the "Go Advanced" button. You have 14 days to update your thread's title.

I was just curious because I'm not interested in any black hat type of scheme. And the reason I ask is because in the pure sense of the definition, anything that artificially generates traffic that wouldn't be generated otherwise hold some form of negative connotation-- at least in my mind.
Please understand I'm not trying to dog your scheme, it's just that a website's traffic in the purest form would be generated solely by the site's appeal.
No problem, I understand completely where your coming from.
This is not a black hat type of scheme, and the traffic would be 'user formed' not artificially generated by automatic bots on the website etc.
Although I do not wish to explain everything publicly.
