I have been looking for a best advice weather I should this particular product or not? Product -Satellite TV for PC by satellitesoft Vendor ID –ipodpsp Please take a look of stats Stats: Future $: - | Total $/sale: $33.77 | Avg %/sale: 75.0% | %/refd: 89.0% | Grav: 110.17 | Cat: Software & Services: Video Now if I calculate refund rate it seems to be low as .39 or something. But when started to lookup more about such products I found many sites and peoples telling that these softwares and services are scam including DP as well and does have a sky rocketing refund rates or clickbank may ban such kind of products in future Here are some threads I found http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=404784 http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=743980 Well, except all these I found one same niche product satellitedirect at top of the clickbank market place with 500+ gravity .It does make a sense that such products hold clickbank market pretty well. And if I am not calculating the refund rate wrong then it has not a high refund either. So please DP member share your views and advices and experiences .Much Appreciated Thanks in advance
I once tried to promote this kind of product using PPC and I got slapped by Google for potentially selling illegal items. It wasn't that it was illegal, just that it appeared to them to be that way. To be honest, I didn't try that hard so I'm probably not the best source of info on that, but if you want to use PPC, then be careful how you word your ads.
The thing with these products is that they don't deliver what they seem to, no channels that anyone actually watch. I tried selling it once, sold six and refunded four. Customers said the quality and channels were crap. I apologized and have stayed away from this niche since.
Ya the product isn't very good. The best thing it's for is non usa individuals that are trying to get foreign language channels. What the services offer are streaming video from free sources like local news station websites that stream their broadcast. Also, alot gets funneled to hulu. SO if your customer doesn't know what hulu is. THey think they're getting a great service. My product is http://www.satellitedirect.tv/affiliates.php It has the highest gravity on clickbank.
Not using PPC yet .Only free Traffic Yeah, but if I am not wrong while calculate refund rate then why it is low for satellitesoft? Sorry I might be wrong thats why I posted here to confirm it Well, only one way so far I know to calculate refund rate for product bases of clickbank stats .I mainly use following site http://cbhelper.com/refund-calculator.html
The refund rate for Satellite Direct (I'm an affiliate) is way LOWER than any other tv pc product out there.
Obviously it sells well, what I posted was just my experience. Maybe I promoted to the wrong audience, worded ads incorrectly etc. etc. etc. I guess I would talk to one of the people in the thread and see if they are willing to tell you what they are doing. I chose to move on...but remember that you are your own person and you should do whats best for you.
have you tried other products as well ? and what is your current refund rate so far for satellite direct ..you can share if you don't mind ?
On your website you claim: - over 3,500 HD tv channels (that's not true, there is maybe one or two HD online tv channel available) - TV channels numbers next to countries are fake and way over inflated I don't see how you get away with a low refund. But great marketing, congrats. Edited: I see you now removed HD from you title.
I would say as long as people make money from it - it's worth of promoting. But it's question what piece of a cake can you get from it.
I think it is worth promoting if you can target it to a niche like sports - "watch the world cup 2010 South Africa on your laptop!"
this tv product is converting well in its niche market but its refund rate is also high.I was doing some direct sales and made about 43 sales but got 29 refunds in its line
