Is promotion effective?

Question

Search Engine Optimization

Hello! There is a culinary site. A year has passed since the registration of the domain, in the index since January. All material, except for pictures, is unique, more than 2k recipes, hundreds of articles of 3-5k characters each.
I ordered a promotion 4 months ago, but from 20 uniques per day during this time the site has grown to 80 uniques.
I give $350 every month
Tell me, is this promotion not effective or is it too early to judge because of the short promotion period?

Answer 1

What is there to increase the TIC and the number of articles with access to the top? How much has the site traffic increased, the income from it? If you answer these questions, you will understand everything yourself. Although usually from 6 months effective promotion.
