So this week, sales have been really slow. I'm guessing it was because of fourth of july weekend, and weekend are where my highest sales are. I'm above $50 for the week so far (still got the rest of the the day and tomorow to make a sale), only because of a rebill that came through on Sunday. Anyways, so I've been thinking a lot about my inability to create good landing pages. I've also been reading a lot on this forum about review sites. With my new site design, I think I can effectively combine some things that were working for me before and a "review site" strategy Here's a few steps I've taken recently: - Changed ALL my ezine articles to point to my opt in list. The goal is to grab 100 emails per day. - Got rid of all landing pages. I had a seperate page titled "store." I usually wait until I get some sales after sending hits directly to the product landing page. But then, after I created my own landing pages, the sales on prodcuts taht hadn MY landing pages dropped. So I think I was DETERRING people from purchasing a product becuse my landing pages were so bad. - The side bars and underneath each post on my blog feature products. I've reduced my products from 11 to 5. I had 8 products that had at least one sale. I dropped it down to 5 and even dropped a high-paying product, because I didn't really like it. I bought it two weeks ago, and it was pure crap. Customer service is nonexistent. Unlike most people, I actually care about the people that purchase stuff off my site. I don't want people to go through poor customer service. (Althouth there was a guy who bought something, then returned it after a few days. I'm sure he was one of those serial refunders. Guess he got stuck with the bill this time, hhaha.) Ok, so what I'm doing with the side bar is placing a very short review of each product on the side bar. This isn't a traditional review site, but I'm think it will help sell more products. Anyways, last thing I noticed is that I'm getting decent traffic from search. 100+ HITS just from search on an average day. The question is, how to turn SEO traffic into buyers?
