I've been using clickbank for a little while now(haven't made much) but have noticed something in the reports. On some of the products I'm promoting, I've noticed that the order form may have been submitted a number of times, but there are no actual sales for that product. Is someone stealing my commissions? Are their cards or payment method being declined? Also, on the vendor site, I have a product for sale, is there anyway to get more people promoting it? Sometimes I see spikes of traffic and want to know where it came from so I can focus my efforts in that direction Thanks!
Many people who come to the order form probably have no intention of ordering. SO they may just click on the order form button for the heck of it, resulting in a "submit" but no actual sale. Normally, this ratio between "submits" and "initial sales" are like 40 submits, 25-27 sales. However, in the past couple months, this gap has widened. Back in November, only 1/3 of my submits were resulting in actual sales. Something similar seems to be happening now as well (about 1/2 resulting in sales).
Yup still having the same problem here, 4/9 order form submits converted to sales, but i believe its to do with their anit fraud system!! Not much you can do about it unfortunately!!
after reading this thread. i checked my stats and realized the same thing! Last month, my stats showed that sales were half of total form submits.... Before November, my stats are normal.... weird...
