I Still Haven't Made A Sale Yet....

[tomstark]

Well, after a long drought, I finally got my first sale. It wasn't from the affiliate that I expected, but I made about $9. Woohoo!! I've been doing a lot of changes to my current money articles and adding links to them. I'm slowly getting more traffic and affiliate link clicks, but not many conversions still.

Tom, The site does look great and is really easy to navigate. As I haven't even gotten started on the niche affiliate marketing I wouldn't presume to give you any advice. I am glad that you asked. I am learning a ton by reading the responses from those who have.

Thanks, Bob

$9 is huge. Congrats! Rinse and repeat as they say.

Yeah, thanks for the help and comments guys/gals. I appreciate it, and I can only see a bright light in the future...

your site looks good and 800 ip weekly is not bad.
there is only 30-40 unique ip dailly to my site. I have about fifteen orders one month

Thanks, and yeah I don't know what's going on. People just aren't clicking and buying stuff through my site.

Way cool -- congrats on the sale! Remember if you can sell one for $9, you can sell 10 for $90, 100 for $900, etc... Go for it. Testing and tweaking will help make you successful.

Thanks, I just need to work on getting A LOT more traffic.

Ok, I need some help again. I'm mainly using Amazon for an affiliate. I'm getting about 900 visitors a week and can't get any conversions, let alone many clicks. What's wrong? I have almost 10 articles with "money" keywords that are top 10 on google.

Hi Tom,
I went to your site just now and one thing that jumped out at me was a large Hostgator adsense ad. If you find that people are clicking through on that one, you would be better off to advertise it as a Hostgator affiliate. The ad will look almost the same, but you'll get a whole lot more money for it.

Very nice looking site, by the way.
