310 Clicks and 41 Leads- What should I do?

Discussion in 'Affiliate Programs' started by Dmak02, Jul 19, 2008.

    Hey everyone, before I start asking- I just want to thank all of you for taking the time to read my post.

    I am currently using the YouTube and affiliate marketing method. Does anyone know how can I raise conversion rate?

    Is my current Leads/Clicks normal? What's the average ratio?

    You have a 7.6% conversion rate which isnt bad. Yes, what kind of offer are you promoting, or how much does your offer pay?

    Does the offer affect it?

    Yes, because a 7% conversion rate on an offer that requires the person to make a purchase is a lot different than a 7% conversion rate on an offer that requires the person to submit their zip code.

    regardless of the offer you are running the only way to tell if you can increase conversion is to split test...

    I think you are doing pretty well. 7% converstion rate is not low.

    I'm still wondering where everyone gets 7% when his Leads/Clicks is obviously 13%.

    I'm guessing some of you are not mathematicians like I am (true story) and you're dividing the wrong way and noticing that 410/30 = 7.5 which means 7.5 clicks per lead. OR 1 out of 7.5 = 13%.

    Just been reading a thread on WickedFire about this. It seems as if they are shaving leads etc.

    Consider Market Leverage or Max Bounty. Check my blog for links and why I recommend these companies.

    Also, if you need a hand add me on AIM/Skype.

    I just assumed that whoever did the calculation first did it correctly...I was too lazy to do it myself :p

    Either way, 13% can be high or it can be low depending on the offer

    YouTube traffic makes me believe that 13% is pretty high

    Very well said. Without going into math at all one could kind of eyeball it and know that taking off the third digit in the number of clicks gives you the 10% figure, and you already can see that it is way higher than average. Plus, often, marketers look at anything higher than 1% to be good. So thinking of 7.5% is just not thinking that a conversion would be this high. Congratulations are in order. What should you do? Get paid.

    Slow down there, tiger...1%, 7%, and 10% are not necessarily high for a lot of offers

    I promote an email submit right now that converts at about 28% and my ROI is still pretty low

    Conversion rate depends on a whole lot of things

    But...like I mentioned earlier, given that he's using YouTube traffic, his conversion rate is probably pretty good, yes

    I don't know where you got your mathematics degree, but I would demand a refund.

    Edit: OK, nevermind. Looking at the title (310 clicks and 41 leads) shows me your math was correct. The mistake was saying 410/30 = 7.5. Typo?

    What type of videos are you using? are they directly related to the offer? Are you suing search engine traffic?

    As everyone else said, the conversion rates seem good but what really matters is your ROI.

    Keep testing, testing, testing.

    What kind of offer is it? I have very profitable campaigns at 1-2% CR, and campaigns that have a ~30% CR that aren't profitable at all.
