Answer 1

Hi!

I'm assuming you mean worthwhile as in making you money!  :)

The PPC advertising model is an effective way to drive people to your website.  With this model you can get as many people as you want (and can afford).

But it is what they will do on your website that will determine if it will be worthwhile to you.

Do you have a compelling reason for them to stay and review your website?

Do you have a lead capture process?

Do you have a follow-up process?

Do you have products or services to sell?

Do you have back-end products and services to sell?

There are a ton of ways to get traffic, but you will only want to ramp up to them once you have effective web business.

HTH and have a great day!

yes, it is definitely worth the money to pay for advertising. there are lots of people who uses search engines to find what they are looking for and your if your site shows up in the first few pages then you get a higher chance of getting more visitors.

Answer 3

Unless you are fairly experienced I wouldn't pay for traffic.  I would put the time in utilizing keyword optimization and learning all you can about it.  Start with the free version of Wordtracker(7 days) and then go from there.  If you place the proper keywords in your tags, traffic will find you.
