Why many Clicks but no sale ?

    Hi
    OK, this may be common question asked.
    Had about 300 clicks via Adwords to CJ for webhosting advertisers. But no far no sale... nada, zilch.
    If there are problems with clicks CJ would show as invalid clicks but there are no invalid click so far.
    Adwords using both "Google search and Google network content " visitors. Maybe better to use only "Google search" visitors?
    What is average conversion ratio i.e. how many CJ clicks to generate 1 sale? 1000 clicks, 10000 clicks?

    What am I not doing right?
    Please advise.
    Thanks :)

    ...and the worst part is that people carrying an invalid credit card normally search Google to use them.

    60% of sales made throw AdWords in Web hosting are reversed in the next 30 days - be alert before investing your money in AdWords.

    Is this really true? Is this limited to hosting only or is it a cross-industry figure? That's a little scarey. I'm currently only using adwords to generate interest in my site but it's worth knowing.

    Thanks, p.

    many affiliates trying to make high $ with web hosting programs, and then crying like "lots of traffic and no sales". web hosting programs is not for beginners. market too saturated allready.
