Default Getting Traffic but Can't Convert.. read my dilema

1. I've made 3 similar keyword micro niche websites
2. I receive around 300+ Visitors a day from them
3. I get around 100 Hops to a Clickbank product a day

The only reason I can see that it's not converting is because the long tail keywords are: "-------- ---------- examples"

You would think if they've come to your website looking for examples and you explain that buying these examples would fix their problems they would purchase, but I guess not.

In 8 days I have..

820+ Hops to Clickbank Product,
1 Hop to sales page
1 sale.

Total Earnings - $18.00

My question to you is.. what am I doing wrong? The sites are only 2-3 weeks old so I'm glad they've been so easy to rank but I was hoping to have a little more success with them.

Your stats are indeed very normal, this is a typical example of a smaller niche where the search volume/traffic simply cannot yield more sales.

While 1:100 conversion rate is not excellent, so it is still pretty much normal.

I have a similar site getting about 200-300 visitors/day..and seeing that clickbank conversions are often in the 1:80...it simply cannot yield more than 1 or maybe 2 sales a day.

The solution is to make more sites in other niches which have higher search volume.

You STILL can try to tweak your site, maybe try to increase conversions....to 1:70...if you are exceptionally good with an exceptional sales letter/site maybe 1:50...and maybe try to drive more traffic using long tails keywords etc..etc..

But be aware its a micro niche and daily traffic is just limited and cant be scaled up...if only 300 people are looking for "acne scars treatment" (EXAMPLE) per day..you cannot magically create more traffic

Just rinse + repeat and make more sites.

For most niches, examples are available online for free - no need to purchase anything. It might be better if you create a site which contains free examples, then monetize it with AdSense or something.

CPC is so low I'm not sure if it's worth it.

I'm just wondering if it's possible to get the traffic to convert even when they're just looking for examples?

I've always found 99% of clickbank wasn't worth promoting. They all have so many hyperlinks (besides the sale button) to exit the sales page without making a sale.

I bet you would have a way higher conversion rate with your own product, & forget clickbank.

Really, well making my own product is out of the question... it's an odd niche to get into if your not the right person.

Where have you found products that convert a little better?

Thanks,
