No way this is normal!

    I've been an affiliate with

    flash-template-design.com for a while now, and from 600 clicks no conversions have occured. It's like, from those 600 clicks, I haven't sold anything.

    0% sales...

    I was wondering if this is normal (it sounds anything but normal to me), or within the norms, and how much you guys, usually have to get clicks, in order to make one sale?

    me 600/0, clicks/sells.

    my site is about design, templates, websites.

    and they're selling web-templates, so it's pretty targeted I think.

    Then their site isn't converting or they are ripping you off.

    You have to look into what type of traffic you are sending to it. If you are sending people looking for free templates a site selling templates will probably not convert well or maybe people are looking for cheap ones and yours are very expensive.... My 2 cents.

    Today, surfers buy products because of what they mean, rather than what they do. Try another advertiser and/or another method (CPM,CPC instead of CPA).

    i am using cpc already, but I thought this would be a nice complementary thing, to increase revenue, and provide users with something cool to look around on my site.
