Low Conversion

Discussion in 'Affiliate Programs' started by jiffy_man, Sep 10, 2008.

    I am currently getting over 300 clicks to the advertiser's page and only getting 1 conversion... does this make sense at all? I spoke with the AM and she explained the conversion is good for this offer... so i thought it was weird... the 1 conversion came from a source with no subid appended to the URL.. could it be the tracking tool that i used screwed it up?

    I"m currently using tracking202... if anyone could give me any advice on this... please help me out...

    need to have much more details about the offer and your traffic to help. 1:300 can be awesome or not so awesome- it really varies by offer and traffic.

    I'm using t202, as well.

    I think what happened in your case is that someone clicked your offer and then left and later came back -- but you got credit because of cookies stored in their browser.

    My offer is in the casting call niche... it offers a low rate to someone who wants to join the program...

    It varies. I have some low ticket items that convert 1 in 22 and I have some high ticket items that convert 1 in 200.

    That seems like a really low conversion rate but I'm not a big IMer . I'm only familiar with my own site.

    It could be your adcopy, maybe not narrowed down enough - you may be getting bad clicks.
