I'm just starting with clickbank, so I thought I'd start off promoting 1 product using PPC. So far I have received 77 clicks and not one sale. What's a good ratio? 1:100? I want to know when a good time to drop a product is before I waste too much money on it. My costs are close to half of what I'd make off the sale. What's a good ratio there too?
Finding out if a product converts well isn't as simple as a ratio of x:100. Different sources of traffic have different conversions. For example, if you advertise dog food on a cat food website, you'll get some clicks but not as good of a conversion ratio as if your dog food ad were on dog food website. I recommend you try at least 3 different highly targeted sources for one product (use a tracking code to monitor) and then see how many sales you get out of 500 hops for each source of traffic. It might cost more money than you like, but it's the only way to get good information and make the right decisions!
Right now i average about 1:10 ratio the only problem is i only get like 50 clicks a day to keep that average, i could spend more to get more clicks but my profit would go down. i usally spend about 10$ a day and get about 60-90$ back.
I'm using Adwords too, but my daily budget is really low because I'm trying to get a feel for things. Does my avg. position also make a difference in the quality of my clicks?
1:300 in banner advertising, thats about 1 or 2 sales a day. 0:1 in PPC because i havn't got any sale after 50$ invested.
where do you do your banner advertising on your site or what? because I am looking at trying that myself
Are the quality of your clicks related to the placement of the ad? For example, are clicks from an ad in 3rd position better than the clicks received from an ad in 12th position?
