Over 500 clicks without a single sale?

    Is that possible? I have my site for about 2 months and for the last 30 days I have over 500 clicks without any sale by now! Just one lead for $18. My traffic is high quality because I target only on "buy" and "product" words and it comes mainly from yahoo PPC. All my advertisers have EPC from $10-$100 and I cannot figure it out why so many clicks without a single sale! Terrible!!!!! These advertisers are not converting ANYTHING AT ALL!!! Do they lie or cheat about their statistics or sales? For an example I have over 150 clicks to stubhub and their epc is pretty good - $100 or something. They should have made a couple of sales from me by now but there's not even a single sale. As I said my traffic is highly targeted for buyng words and I'm spending a lot of money on ppc. I suppose I'll stop doing ppc cause it's just not worth it. I'm so mad! :mad: :mad: :mad:

    sure it's possible. it really depends on your target audience. do they have money to spend online? that's really the only problem I can see occurring.

    1. The advertiser you choose doesn't convert that well
    2. Sports ticket has lots of completion so...
    3. It's also depend on your "presale" page quality.

    Not much to complain about if you got an $18 lead.
    I got over 500 clicks to a site with a 50% click ratio yesterday resulting in$0. An $18 lead every day wouldnt be so bad. Now do that 100x.

    How much of your traffic that you buy through PPC are you actually tranferring to the advertisers websites?

    It may be that your presell page (website) is ineffective and is only sending a proportion of your visitors over or is sending them over not in the right frame of mind to act.

    Also, how many different products are your 500 clicks spread across?
