    how targeted are your clicks, if your getting that kind of rate and your site is non turnkey aka, non niche affiliate. think about putting PPC ads on?

    They are pretty much targeted, I had around 14,000 impressions with 186 clicks, i don't advertise via content network. The average CTR for some of my keywords is around 4.00%

    I bet you'll get like $13.64 in just one click all of a sudden. Good luck!

    it might start to pay off, but if it doesnt in a little while you'll need to re-evaluate, good luck!

    I have only targeted 9 country's and thus far it has cost me around $100 which is to much. My daily budget was $25 and i set it to $35. My average Position is 4.4 and most of my keywords are poor or not triggering ads, but i still get clicks from them. I think i found out the solution.

    If you're getting clicks but not conversions there's a couple of possiblities -

    It could be that your keywords don't target the right group and/or your ad text doesn't accurately reflect what you're offering so people clicking are expecting something else.
    Or - it's a landing page problem - people either don't like the offer, or it's not totally clear to them what they're expected to do next.

    100% CTR? how many clicks are you talking about?

    still 186 clicks are not alot to evaluate your campaign yet. You might get 2 sales on the 187th and 188th clicks and still get around a 1% conversion rate.

    i still don't think that may be a fix all solution, what if that is a one time sale. Track your campaigns for a bit longer then make a re-evaluation again.

    You should have had a conversion already.

    If you are an affiliate and using the vendor's landing page, then probably the problem is in your keywords and ads.

    Use the Keyword Tool to find keywords on the landing page, and make sure to include the keywords in your ad.
    Would be perfect, to put the keyword in the title.
