Sales Drop Today?

Discussion in 'ClickBank' started by popedope, Mar 27, 2008.

    I'm not trying to point any fingers at CB or anything like that but my sales today are 0. I'm driving more traffic to my pages and have had several hundred hops aldready but with no sales.

    Anyone else seeing this drop in conversions today?

    Today has been very weird. Usually sales start at 1PM and stop at 9PM. I'm a publisher so I know it's not clickbank losing my aff id. I've had 0 sales today and am kind of wondering what's going on.

    Anybody else noticing the same thing?

    I've gotten 280 hops today and that usually equates to 5-6 sales, but so far nothing.

    Well for me as a publisher I am in the Golf market. With this I am a little disappointed because we are converting on our own private pages but not with clickbank pages, I am sure this is just my own fault that it has not started to convert yet.

    And as a affiliate this is my first week trying so I am really not surprised, but I have managed to get lots of hops all organic traffic from some of my sites

    I know you are involved in PPC. Are you using direct linking or LPs?

    a little of both.

    Landing pages are converting heaps better for me and I am getting better ad position on google. (1:35 conversion)
    however im no direct linking to vendors page, I am using my own domain and cloaking. My ad gets displayed a lot more this way.. this way is about 1:85 conversion

    I am direct linking for my own products though and this is going well

    You are not converting in CB yet because you have a competitor that is killing you .So you might want to look for him and see what he has that you don't have . Your landing page is better than his , but I think he offers more << strong things >> than you .

    or send me a PM I will show you his landing page . BTW I am promoting you too and hope that I can give you the first sale .

    About the sales , today was ok for me

    Slower then usually but only because my adwords is down. I'm getting less and less clicks a day, I gotta work on that. but still made good profit today considering all was SEO.

    Today is definitely my lowest Thursday for about 3 months. Not a huge deal, but I just couldn't figure out why it was quite a bit lower than usual.

    My sales suck, one day I earn $260, next $50 with the same traffic of course, and this was like this for the past week or so, I do not know what's up.

    Thanks for info. I need to work on landing pages, otherwise direct linking is not that profitable.

    I hope they are, but it's still kind of strange, just because on a good day I get most of my sales within an hour and then sudden death.

    It would appear my sales were down yesterday because google was so kind to put us on the 6th page. April Fools! This is really gonna hurt unless it goes back to normal soon.

    My usual conversion rate is 1 in 74, but the last three days it has been up at 1 in 125, which basically blows away my profits. I haven't been through enough sales cycles to know what "normal" fluctuations are, but I hope that this isn't the normal normal, and my past performance was the fluke.:eek:
