new to cpa, simple question!

I just started cpa about 3 days ago, i put some ads on my site i had 85 clicks and 0 leads,0 conversions, should i change or wait longer? the ads are related to the site .. gaming .. what should i do?

 

1) Tell us what you actually want to ask. Can you actually answer a question that is so generic like yours?
2) Wait.
3) Consider trying a new ad position, or maybe put the ads on a page with a different context.

Good luck

 

It usually takes several visits to a site before someone buys. Those clicks should be retained as cookies and you may get conversions for them at a later date.

 

It is difficult to say if 85 clicks and no leads is bad or not. The affiliate program profitability is counted by earnings per click.

E. g. 100 clicks -> 2 leads -> $5 commission per lead = $0.10 per click
1,000 click -> 1 sale -> $100 commission per sale = $0.10 per click

As you can see on the example above it is not important how many conversions you get from particular number of clicks. The amount you earn from every click in average is the most important.

 

you should try some other methods of promotion.
the whoe story is about how to get the targeted audience.

 

Gaming and entertainment sites are notorious for being hard to monetize. People are there to have fun not to buy, so your conversion rates could be lower. It also could be that particular offer does not have very good conversion rates. Hard to say on so few clicks.

At any rate 85 clicks is not enough to judge. You could pull the ad now, but could have gotten 2 sales in the 90th and 95th clicks. Hang in there.

 

Yeah you need to wait out longer to see how the cookies hold up

 

3 days is not a long time to anylize your progress, so be patience and wait..
While waiting, keep promote your site.

Keep trying and good luck

 

Be patient my friend, cpa is testing testing and testing....

 

You should really try more. Clueless in three days will take you nowhere.

IMO with gaming you should try email/cell submits like a free wii etc.

 

85 clicks is just not enough to be able to draw any conclusions.

Be patient.

You probably do need to wait a little. I didn't quite get what your site is about, but different niches do have different conversion rates on CPA. It boils down to (a) just how targeted the visitors you're drawing in are and (b) the type of CPA offer you have.

 

You need more data. And ifyour getting 85 clicks in 3 days... you need more traffic or you gonna be waiting forever. I usually use 500 targeted visitors as a basis...but if doing PPC stuff you can base it on 2 to 3 times your payout as the cutoff point.
