Does web traffic effect rankings?

[hoalan]

I actually agree if the traffic you gathered are natural or not illegal because google have an analyzer all the traffic gathered. Content also is a big factor to increase the rank in any search engine. It should be unique and have the quality.

Simply said:

Yes, traffic most certainly does effect your page rank. 

It is important to have traffic in order to increase your rankings

Once visitors are on your site, it is also important for them to engage with it, this too helps with site rankings.  its much better for a visitor to land on your site and use it than to "bounce" right off.

Best of luck!

It's a form of click fraud, which is against Google's terms of service. It's like trying to cheat on an exam by looking at your neighbor's paper. Sure, you might get a better grade, but it's not a genuine reflection of your knowledge, and you could get caught and punished.
