1500+ Views on ADBlade and still no bite - is this normal ?

2 replies
I have setup an AD on ADBlade and I have 1500+ page views and 9 clicks so far but yet to see a single sale ...

is this normal ???

Is ADBlade the way to go or should I try other traffic network ?

Thanks

David Bowman.

    Since you're not getting clicks from search traffic 9 clicks isn't really that many. I can get sales with as little as 3 visitors but they are "order" keywords which can convert at 30% or more. Banner ad traffic is a different thing so you could go for 500 clicks with no sale. It's a form of interruption marketing so conversion rates will be maybe 1% at best. With this sort of traffic it's probably best to build an email list.

      Ad Blade doesn't work that way. You aren't bidding on keywords like you would in Google/Bing/Yahoo

      You're placing hopefully relevant ads on sites in their network.

      Most advertisers don't build a list from this traffic. However they do have solid funnels and spend gobs of cash.

      The OPs problem is his CTR from his actual ad.

      His copy is probably weak, and I'm venturing to say his image is as well.

      But 1500 impressions is way too small of a sample size in a network like that.

      Impressions don't matter anyway, unless you're paying on a CPM basis.

      @david - come back in here and ask the same question (or ask in the ad network section) when you have at least 10K impressions.
