    I have AdSense shop (http://shop.ad-sensing.com) where I offer people veeery cheap e-Books, starting from as low as 4$ and 5$. The thing is I have no single order yet, and I have about 300 unique daily. Why people won't buy products? :confused:

    Thanks

    Well thats a good point also you dont really have enough traffic, or maybe not a good sales pitch, It looks like you just expect them to go to the page and know what ebooks are about and buy, Try looking for someone doing it successfully then copy what they are doing..
    Also people like free stuff, maybe create a sales page for each product and sell the product

    Depends on which kind of traffic you are getting? If its mostly US traffic, then you should be earning good!

    Traffic doesn't matter where it comes from as long as it converts.

    Use a traditional sales page for these ebooks...for example very long,convincing,has testimonials,etc. I would suggest you hire a good copywriter to do this for you

    It's mostly US traffic, and I have 2 books that can be downloaded for free, which had been downloaded twice.

    Consider reducing the prices until people start buying. People might be willing to pay a small amount of money even for info they can find for free elsewhere if it means that they have to make extra effort to get the free info together; they will pay for the convenience of having all that info collected and organized for them. You need to figure out what this price people are willing to pay is.

    It also depends on where the traffic is coming from and what it is they are looking for when they come to the site. For example, someone who comes to your site from google after searching for "make money online ebook" is more likely to buy something compared to someone who just arrived to your site while looking for free info on making money with AdSense.

    Cheers!

    I agree with above opinions, and I can add that there is problem with the mark. Your company has not much authority, and there is not enough marketing techniques on your site. Besides that, 300 visitors daily is not so much as for this kind of business, you need at least 10x more.

    Here's your opening paragraph: "Through the years, I have been buying many AdSense e-Books with reseller rights. They taught me a lot. Now I want to share those books with you - and guess what? They are lower priced! Because they almost paid off because of the AdSense success I achieved!


    I am sure you are going to find all the books an interesting read.

    Cheers."

    Please bear with me, I'm just trying to help so note these things. The grammar needs major work! The sentence: "They are lower priced" should be "We (I) have lowered the price."

    The other sentence: "Because they almost paid off because of the Adsense success I achieved!" needs rewording or completely eliminated. In this sentence it seems you are not too successful in using adsense because you almost paid off the e-books you purchased. You also used because twice in one sentence which is not recommended grammar. Either way, this is not going to convince me to buy these books.

    Please get someone who is great with marketing and English to help you with your opening paragraph.

    Also, if I were advocating using adsense, I'd put some adsense on my site, at least some referrals in case you fear that the adsense ads maybe too competitive and steal your customers away. That way at least your customers know you are really using it and have some belief in your success with these e-books.

    Don't mean to sound harsh, just trying to help. On the positive side, your layout and graphics look pretty good! ;)

    I can't answer that but if people are not buying then it is probably not low enough. Would you prefer 0 sales at $4 dollars each or 10 sales at $1 dollar each? You need to lower the prices slowly until people start buying.

    And you need to work on the text on your site as other people have suggested.

    Warning: The following option is extremely opinionated.

    The descriptions on the site suck.

    Your store is setup like a back alley crackhouse, there's no scenery, & all people have to go on before buying is what they've heard about your products on the street, minus a one-liner from the salesperson.

    Take the time to learn about your products, be able to write product descriptions that tell a potential buyer everything they're going to learn from your product, without going into what they'll have to do to learn it.

    Think infomercial, think about how they take 30 minutes to describe somthing being sold for $20 that costs about 10 cents to make.
