Clickbank sales problems. Anyone else have this happen

by moodyresources
9 replies
One of our Clickbank accounts has averaged a sale every 20 hops or less for months now, but we have gone 150 hops recently with no sales. We have gone maybe 50 to 60 hops before without a sale during the time we have been averaging a sale every 20 hops, but never this long.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this just normal behavior for CB products or is something going on from CB or in anyones opionion?

    Seriously, this may be the 150th post to bring this up! No offence, but try searching first.

    If you're still having no joy, I can say this:

    Many people are experiencing probs. None of us know the reason why, which is worrying.

    Either way, you're not alone. We're all losing sales (or is it just the economy?). I/m not sure if it's a CB prob, but it's definitely not the economy as my sales have just got back on track.

    Sorry I can't suggest anything other than to plod on and look to becoming your own merchant asap, it's the only way to survive such invulnerabilities as an affiliate.

    P.S

    The bigger picture of affiliate sales may reveal to you that getting a few hundred clicks and no sales is normal one week, whereas another week you could be getting a sale every 50 clicks...
    ...that's just the nature of sales and conversions full stop (online or offline).

    So I'd say stick with it but also diversify asap.

    Yes, and I think what is going on in the economy is a big factor to changes in sales.

    I was having the same problem. I went for 10 solid days without 1 sale from CB, which is highly unusual. All of a sudden yesterday I made 3 sales!

    I think it is probably a combination of some CB problems and the economy. Just keep working - things will get better If CB is having problems, I doubt that it will last too long. They don't want to lose all of their affiliates!

    BIGGEST PROBLEM WITH CLICKBANK



    I have been working as an affiliate of CLICKBANK since 2007. Never I have missed a check from their end neither any kind of problematic session with them. Their system works very well in terms of distributing commissions into two parties (Vendor/ Affiliate).



    BUTTT!!! now I have seen many affiliates talking about a major fact which is they are not getting/generating enough sales as compare to what they used to.



    THE REASON IS BECAUSE OF "INTERNET EXPLORER 8.0 AND ABOVE VERSIONS" & WEB BROWSERS WHICH HAS UPGRADED FROM ITS EARLIER VERSIONS.



    These browsers clear COOKIES when they are closed. (If the Clear cookie option field is checked in the browser)



    This Particular killing feature of INTERNET EXPLORER 8.0 and above is alone responsible for affiliates inability of earning good commission.

    Instead of writing in a caps lock, why don't you go to Digital Products Retailer: Affiliate Program & Sell Online - ClickBank and find it by yourself :rolleyes:
