How SEO and Adwords will help in gaining Popularity(Not Traffic) to my website?

[Jake]

I am not clear how you would measure 'popularity' there are automated ranking systems that rank the "Authority" of a site.

Traffic is generally a good gauge of the popularity of a site, providing it is real organic traffic and not fake paid robot traffic. The main SEO proactive, getting backlinks from other sites is useful for increasing the popularity of a site.

Adwords does nothing for improving popularity, until you have a know conversion rate, there is a high likelyhood of losing money using expensive adwords. Cheaper advertising might reach the correct demographic for your service, you can find 2 cent clicks on PTC sites, the paid clickers who end up seeing those ads are probably the same people who also offer tasks on Fiverr.

7 search is an alternative PPC site, with lots of junk and fake traffic, bit some real as well, you can get clicks for a couple of cents, the trick is to lower the default 5 cent bid once a keyword is approved.

Funny, here's a job offering a list of 100 Fiverr clones.
