Google & Yahoo Web Page Optimization Vs. Buying Targeted Traffic

With Billions of web pages on the Internet competing for a wide range of subjects and their topics, just how practical is it to optimize websites when Google and Yahoo search engine's marketing trends and indexing methods are continually changing? Is it worth investing time to copyright websites around Google and Yahoo search terms? Or is it better to buying targeted traffic directly to websites?

It is very common for web masters to create feeder pages by having just enough text on their website(s) as to get indexed by Google and Yahoo.

It is a common belief that by submitting websites to the main search engines like Google and Yahoo, that they will deliver all the required web traffic automatically with little or no continual effort on the part of the submitter.

If you can go out and buy targeted traffic in great quantity, at a tiny fraction of the expense of a professional SEO guru, then why continue with something that does not work?
