CJ Starts Strong Then Peters Out

    Does this happen to anyone else...

    It seems that as soon as you start promoting a new offer you get a couple of sales through it... then all of a sudden your conversion rate goes to sh*t and no matter how many clicks you send, it just won't seem to convert.

    Is it just me, or does anyone else see this?

    Actually, I just started seriously promoting one of the advertisers - I did GREAT my first month, then, like you, am not converting anymore.

    My CPM was over $100 last month, and sits at just under $50 this month... EPC went from $33 to $18.

    Anyone have insight about this???

    Same here. After a little bit research, I found the main reason was lack of new visitors and ads. To fix the problem, I did two things:
    1. Update the site contents frequently
    2. Introduce new ads frequently.

    Now I have certain amount sales everyday. It's just my experience. Keep your site fresh to your users.

    In my case, Im using adwords to draw users to the page, so the visitors are generally new
