Exposing a inconvenient issue online is way stronger than contacting any company (again and again) by email. Their reputation can be crashed in some months if they don't take actions (witch i bet they are taking right now).
You seem to think they have only been having problems recently....that's not the case at all. As I said before, every time they have an update of sorts there is a slew of complaints on the forums.....this goes back YEARS not months and they still haven't done anything about it, so why do you think all of a sudden they are changing things now?
Today looks like sales are back to normal or at least they are not as crappy as the previous days so far...
I had a good day yesterday with 3 sales. Today I maintained my campaign and even tweaked it a bit, nothing on the day yet. Though 3 sales per day for 1 day isn't enough data.
Because they have a lot more affiliates today and many of them (the small ones) might drive their focus to another company? The big fishes seem to be all right, i suppose. But small affiliates represent what? 30-50% of CB income? Can they afford to lose that?
In recent weeks I noticed a pronunced downturn in my affiliate sales from ClickBank products...I wonder if coming december will be better...last year it was a very good month but these days...who knows....
Who else in the market is like clickbank....and don't even think of saying PDC, there is no one else like clickbank and that's why they can afford to be lax in there approach to any problems. If they haven't been in a hurry to fix problems before, why would they now? If anything Clickbank is getting stronger.
This is a forum. No one is forced to read. And remember this thread's called: Weird Sales Fluctuations. If you don't have them, move on and don't read/post. It's quite simple.
Or just don't make them at all!! You are not doing yourself any favours by crying here dude! Ask yourself mate, Has your affiliate sales got any better since posting to this thread?? I tell you what dude, why don't you join Suppers blog where hes been creating a whole 'hate blog' about clickbank. If you read his blog you totally get the impression this guys allowed this paranoia to get to him. Dude dont go down his lane!!
We have been discussing this for some time now, in a polite way. No one is moaning or crying and i am tired of your ridiculous posts, frankly. If you don't know/want to discuss a situation in here, don't post. But don't accuse me/us of moaning/crying/being plain stupid. If you insist in doing it, I'll report each and every one of your spam posts. Do your maths. bl4ckmaN started this thread to discuss "Weird Sales Fluctuations" - not if you agree or not with them...
Patchkaa I don't know what you are trying to prove here, but I can definitely say that you are wasting your time. If your sales are fluctuating unusually, then you can post about it here, if they are not, and you are making millions, then there are many other threads to read...
Just learn to ignore Patch, most people do. He only seems to post to wind people up, nothing of use to add to any thread I have ever seen. At the end of the day writing about issues on here is not going to change Clickbank, but what it might do is save us that are doing PPC a bit of money by scaling back our campaigns when there are problems, because CB certainly won't tell us.
Just made 1 sale yesterday. No sales till now for today. My amazon, cj and other sales are doing well. is this trend similar for everyone?
Can you believe this? Since 1st of November I've sent over 700 super targeted hops to one of the products, I'm promoting, and I got only 4 sales, while in October the product was converting 1:40-50 for me...Nice, isn't it?
Guess what, payment processor screwed again,,, just recieved 6 emails the likes of: "i have been trying to buy your product for over six hours now but it kept saying unable to process your order at this time i dont know why please reply ASAP thanks"
today sales are crap, and the previous 2 days there were weird periods of no sales - 5/6 hours gaps of no sales in the middle of avg 5 sales/hour Stop PPC Mates...
