    Hi, I have been running cj for 10 days and received 1000 clicks in total, but I havent made any sales or lead.

    Is that normal case?

    I can understand your frustration. We all want to see a campaign do well. We all want to see those conversions! There could be many reasons why a campaign does not convert after 10, 50, 100, 1000 impressions. Is the offer incentivized? How is traffic being driven to the website where the creative is displayed? Could be improper keywords to reach the site that are not consistant with the offer itself. The list goes on. I would recommend that if you are not recording any conversions after 100 visits to the website where the offer is displayed that a affiliate remove the offer and try something different. test, test again, then test again. It always comes down to testing and tracking. Good luck, and be patient, you will eventually find the right campaign that fits the website. ;)

    The 3 most important strategies in affiliate marketing are targeting, targeting, and targeting. If after 1000 clicks your offer doesn't convert, the offer clearly isn't targeted towards your audience.
