Over 900 Hops And Not 1 Sale!!!!

    OK, something fishy here. I have sent over 900 hops to clickbank ALL from pay per click(google and yahoo) and i haven't gotten 1 sale! I give up with clickbank. It's impossible to not get 1 sale in 900 hops. Imagine how much money I am down:mad: I guess I will stick to dating affiliate programs.

    (as a warning to other affiliates not to promote that product)

    How many tests did you do with the traffic you bought?

    900 hops from 1 single source that doen't convert doesn't mean a product is rubbish.

    It's the holiday season. Sales are real down for me too. I had more than 2000 clicks yet no sales.

    whenever I think Clickbank is letting sale credits slip by, I'll get a random friend to buy a product from me, and I always get the credit. I've never seen a sale lost when I actually test it. With that said, the past two days have been my WORST in the past two months.

    I made 1 sale today but i don't do PPC :(

    However, 900 clicks and no sales - there is something WIERD!
    Are you sure the link is correct?
    Are you sure you are not promoting apples but actually selling oranges?

    Switch products. Some products will sell, some will flop.

    Also, consider a landing/pitch page for the products your promoting.

    I know of an excellent tool you can use for ClickBank research, it shows what products are selling, and which ones aren't. It's a GREAT logistics tool if you wanting to sell more... PM me for details.

    Regards and goodluck,

    Since when is the holiday season a bad thing? Isn't it the opposite?

    You need targeted quality traffic to make sales. If your visitors are not targeted, you can even get 2000 hops, and make no sales.

    It's not just about clicks, you need clicks that convert, it means higher quality traffic.

    an interested visitor click is worth 100 non-interested.

    Dude, you should have known something was going wrong after ~70 clicks and no sales. How could you leave it for 900 clicks without revising your campaign? :confused:

    Anyway . . . Don't worry about it. It sounds like you're still going through that nasty learning phase, during which everybody loses money. I lost a lot when I started, too. Keep at it, learn everything you can, persevere and you should soon start making some money. Leave questions in the forums for people to help you.

    Also, note that it's the holiday season, during which many niches dry up. As such, it might not be entirely your fault.

    Generally it's the sales page you send traffic to. You must make sure that sales page will convert, otherwise send it to your own sales page and put the buy it now button at the bottom of your page. Get permission first, however some people's sales pages on CB just plain stink.

    I think most of the shoppers are busy in other activities rather than spending time on online shopping.
