I was making research over the Internet trying to find out a reference of what is the conversion rate of an ad in different places of the web, and could not find much, only some threads with some conversion rates but not really clear. The idea is to include in this thread conversion rates you had with ads in in Facebook, other social networks, websites, blogs and forums. It would be good for us to have a complete thread, full of information that will let us see the experience of most of us in conversion rates. Obviously we should make some assumptions, as for example that the ad we are marketing is targeted to the audience it is being displayed. Please include real numbers you have or you have read in another article and make a citation if necessary. Also it would be good to put at the left corner, which type of website we are talking about. ----------- Ex. FACEBOOK "Conversion rates of ads in applications are quite good..." "Conversion rates depend on the type of applications..." ------------ Ex2. BLOGS "Conversion rates in blogs are..." ------------ Im not trying to be offensive explaining here or consider you idiots with the examples, I just wanted to make sure I was clear with what I suggested. Come on! Lets start including our experience with conversion rates!
WEBSITE - Category: Entertainment / language: spanish In my experience I used to have an entertainment website in spanish, it had a conversion rate of 3,20%. It made USD950 a month with Google Adsense. WEBSITE - Category: reverse auctions / language: english I am planning to make a reverse auction website, and would be planning to promote it through forums, blogs and websites related to gambling. I would be offering people to play for a free real prize of USD500. I would only ask for the name and email of the person to participate and would give a real prize to the winner. I would like to know what conversion rate you think I may be having if I make an ad, post, etc in all the places I mention above in this paragraph?? Thanks for your help, Hope the info of my entertainment website helps you! John (Juan)
WEBSITE This is a really interesting thread! Conversion rates either online or offline are a key to success or failure to marketing campaigns. I have a website related to a specific niche which has a conversion rate of 14% with G.. Ads, and makes U$S4.500 a month.
Its not at good as it used to be.. they are cracking down on the types of ads u can use esp in the date nich..
14%, huh? Okay. robertmias, the only way to know for sure is to put the ads in yourself, and go from there. It all depends on the ads, where it is placed, how many more ads are on that same page....but on average it is no more than 1%. Webmasters of such sites like Facebook, Askmen, Yahoo, and, popular blogs will tell you this when you ask about their rate card.
