Would anyone be willing to give me some feedback on my site?

I'm very new to internet marketing and have been trying to learn what I am doing. I have a wp blog promoting a clickbank product. It's a very simple site - review style with just 2 posts. Currently, according to scroogle, it's ranking on the first page of Google for both of my long tail keywords -- but it's not getting any traffic and certainly not making any sales. I'm only getting about 5-10 unique visitors a day and not any sales at all. I'm wondering if I've done something wrong. If anyone is willing to take a look I would really appreciate any advice!

I don't have enough posts to submit a link so if you give me an email address I can send the url.

    How are you checking your rank?

    What's your position and how many searches do these keywords get?

    if the clickbank is an internet marketing course, then I would forget about trying to rank it in the SERP, it is just WAY to competitive.

      No, it's not an IM course. It's health related. But in some ways what I'm really wondering about is if it's ranking on the first page of Google why isn't it getting any traffic?

    How much traffic does Google's keyword tool say (on 'exact') it should be getting for local searches?

    And 1st page isn't good enough... you need to be position #1 for the greatest benefits... I wish I could instantly put my hands on it, but there's been charts showing the percentage of traffic that each position on the first page of Google gets... and if you're just somewhere on the page, it's not nearly as good as #1.

    As for sales, you probably shouldn't expect anything until you have 300-500 visitors or more... I once saw a sale sending just 15 people to a Clickbank product (on a site I own sitting at #1), then waited close to 1,000 people before I saw the next sale. My site is just articles, with a product in the sidebar, so I don't have a strong call to action...

    I suspect that experienced Clickbank people will tell you that you should develop your list, then market the Clickbank product.

    But what do I know? I'm a fan of Amazon Affiliate marketing...

      Market Samurai is what you're looking for this page shows the amount of traffic for position one is 43% of traffic, position two shoots down to 12%! How To Find Great Keyword Traffic (not an affiliate link) obviously
