Clickbank - 67 clicks, 3000 impressions, no conversions?

6 replies
So, I've been using Bing Ads to promote a Clickbank product, and the advertising has been going very well, as I've got 67 clicks, 3000 impressions, and a CTR of 1.86%. But one problem, is that I have not made any sales at all, and I've spent $11 already. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I've followed many tips from the pros such as using negative keywords, not bidding too low or too high, and creating a landing page, plus the product I'm promoting has over 200 gravity. Is it normally this hard to get the first sale for every new affiliate, or is my luck just bad?

Thanks

    Looks fairly typical with direct linking to affiliate offers. People usually won't buy the first time...which is why so many people will say "build your list"! Well, the good news is that the cookie lasts 60 days, so you might make some sales from the clicks you got...if the users don't clear their browser over the next 60 days haha.

    I'd rather tell you an ugly truth than a pretty lie.

      Haha, that is true. I've heard so many times that people usually won't buy unless you build their trust a little further, guess that's the one thing I have to do!

      I have yet to actually build a mailing list, maybe I should do that

      Hi Kenny ,
      You are not alone who is facing this problem ,conversions are really getting harder these days .

      You must work on a list instead of direct ads .List always help in long term and real conversions.

      ADs can be used to create traffic to your landing pages but real conversion will be done by proper email campaigns

      Thanks

    This is number game. Traffic from search engine have better quality. What you need to do is just wait.

    Facing the same problem as well. Search traffic should really be quite targeted. But you only have 67 clicks so far, you may wish to test with at least 100 clicks. Also how fast does the clicks in?
