Why is my website not generating sales?

    Hello,

    I have a website selling my own product, but what is happening, that I spent hundreds of dollars in Google Adwords with exactly 0 conversions.

    So, I came to the point, that my website has some issues making potential customers go away.

    I would be very thankful if anyone would take a look, and tell me what I am doing wrong. My website is TubePromoter.net

    I think it would be very helpful on sales, if you could provide trials to your customers. We all like to try and see how the product works, before we purchase. Personally, every purchase I made was after I used the trial version of the software.

    Simple question: What does it do? All I see if gimmick copy saying "how wonderful it is" OK, what is it though?

    And then I see a big huge image with lots of "do not" do this and "do not" do that and licensing.

    I vote for a clearing and more understandable website.

    May also want to fix the domain and not do a redirect. That's kind of spammy.

    Give price 14.99 because 29.99 is too high

    you're an idiot

    First off, the name of your website (jan1024188's Software) doesn't exactly inspire confidence. What the hell is jan1024188 anyway?

    Next, I have no idea what your product does. The sales page is poorly written and you can barely even find the purchase button even if you wanted to buy it.

    In addition, what type of keywords did you use to advertise? They probably were not targeted enough.


    Just another example of why people shouldn't use Adwords when they don't know what they're doing.

    you should have a way to get the visitors email address.

    that would be very important because you are going to

    waste alot of money, if you don't build a list of subscribers

    Absolutely. Capture the lead. Give the free trial, but require them to subscribe to a mailing list to get it. That way, you get a way to contact them if they don't purchase right away. Not to mention, you get a list of people to market other products to.

    Change the title of site
    Describe each product in 1 or 2 line after its heading.
    Or Simply show your site to SEO expert.
    Spend some money on SEO work rather than Google adword.
    They will suggest proper SEO content of your pages.
    Also work out on price and provide offers eventually if possible.
    Share this offers to social networks.

    Yes, you should name your software a desired name, so people will note it, and then explain how it does, and what benefit it brings, and rewrite your sales page let more people know what's you sale and easy to buy is finaly!

    try making your content rich, unique and SEO friendly. Remember, Google usually looks at the first two paragraphs so make sure the most important keywords are placed there to help improve your ranking.

    I do also agree that a trial version added to the site will help attract more traffic.

    I too would look at changing the name of your site. Select a name that describes what you are actually selling and is catchy and easy to remember that way people can find there way back to your site in the future!

    Best of Luck!

    I think you should concentrate more on organic traffic and do online promotion using different social media modules.
