    Hi

    I know the issue might get unanswered but I need to try and clarify what happened to my site in the last weeks.

    I address this question to all affiliates that are making money by selling SOCCER tickets (thats european football) and also, if they are around here, to the soccer tickets sites owner.

    Are sales as low for you as they are for me? :) My traffic is growing, my google serps are better, but no sales at all. For weeks... I asked my main affiliate program but I havent heard from them since.

    I know the soccer tickets prices are not cheap so the only way to explain this is that people are not buying because of financial troubles.

    If there's any guy here who is promoting soccer tickets please give me a reply.

    Thanks

    I feel your pain. I'm also promoting tickets but all the soccer affiliates charge inflated prices for tickets. I would never spend £300 for one ticket so I can't really expect someone else to fork out that kind of money.

    I make more money from using affiliates such as kitbag. Commission is quite good and so are sales.

    Which affiliate are you using?

    worldticketshop and euroteam (the last one is pretty scary, they never respond to emails and such, but I still send them some traffic).
    Worldticketshop, on the other hand, is (was?) a nice converting site, but not anymore. And I send them the best traffic (SE traffic).

    Well, about kitbag and such tshirts sponsors, I think it's a shame that you only get paid 3-4 pounds for a 60 pounds sale. I only sold 4 shirts in an year or so... On which sites are you using these sponsors?

    If you won't make more than 10 sales a month, that is the commission most people will give you I'm afraid.

    The issue with selling T-shirts is that regular traffic to your site ( people who come searching for news) don't really want to buy. That makes you have to target specific niches for affiliate marketing ( unless you want to do PPC)

    I have one site dedicated to soccer tshirts, unfortunately I don't have much time to update it. And yes, all my sales came from that site :)

    Another question: I see many people using affiliatefuture with kitbag. I am using affiliatewindow. What exactly is the difference?
