Hi warriors,Im really facing a dilemma I have a site that has been doing 1-3 orders each day for the last 2 months,I wanted to try to build the site up by adding autoresponder and such,I have to say I really hate bothering a site once it starts making money.,but I wanted to give better service also.now my new email address for checkout is now a aweber email at checkout,its also a little different than the sites name.my address is verified so I would not think it would be a problem.anyways sales have dropped and im trying to figure why,ive not changed much,ads are still running the same,I was averaging many sales with just 30-40 visits a day... any ideas on this,I can send you the domain If you wanna take a look.

P.S I hate autoresponders.

    It definitely helps establish trust by having your paypal address match your website url. I'd be surprised if it not matching would scare all sales away. I assume you have already tested the order process to ensure that it still works. It should be easy enough to switch back to the old e-mail to test if it has any effect.

    Interesting, I always match my paypal address to my site, for example: paypal@mywebsite.com - I've never thought of what it would be like with a different address.

    Are all of your sales on PayPal? Another thing to consider, about 60-70% of my sales are from standard credit cards, 30-40% from PayPal, so you could probably increase your sales by also considering adding a processor that can handle normal credit cards such as 2Checkout, or QuickPayPro, or something similar.

    I don't think they are connected but if you can have the same website url and paypal account, then why not?
