Why won't my page convert

Your traffic source is a critical part of your funnel. If you're sending unfocused traffic to the page, it won't do well.

Now as to the conversion component, which is the page itself.

As a first time visitor, my eye did not know where to go. It moved back and forth between the two columns ("Is this for me? Or this?") and since there was nothing that grabbed my attention, I gave up.

I see a lot of "corporatespeak". What's In It For Me? Where's your strong benefit? Who is the page for? Right now it's about you, not your customer.

Jason hit the nail on the head. Your biggest mistake is the FORMAT of the page.
The page is much too busy and confusing to read. And that bright blue background
is hurting my eyes. If you wrote a simple black print on plain white paper type
of websites, then you can start considering how the words are doing. But I don't
think anyone is reading the words right now.

You have to improve you page, think about what the customers will be interested in, change the format.and make a big call to action button.
Make some kind of check list with the benefits of working with you, and why they should choose you instead of other companies.

And always make sure that your traffic is well-targeted.

Good Luck with your business,
Leonardo.

Thank you all very much for the feedback. I obviously have some work to do and it is great to have somewhere to go with it. Everyone's input is really appreciated.

Your not going to like what I am about to say but social media is a dead platform for direct or future sales despite what others may believe. Social media is best for brand awareness but nothing else. The best forum of marketing is content marketing IE providing content to influence and develop repeat behavior.

Over all the marketing platforms I know that work the two that are the most effective for the money is GOOD email marketing bad email marketing will hurt you and GOOD press releases along with regular blogs. If you build it they will come.

The best time to send out emails is once a week on the weekends at 8-12 pm.

Blogs should be produced both via video IE youtube and the printed word. These word blogs should be on your sight as well as your press releases. Goal for blogs are to raise SEO performance, traffic and back links among other things. When you write blogs use pictures and videos to attach to it if you can.

Also press releases are not cheep and the life of a press release is 3 weeks. You can do free press releases but they are not as effective as paid press release. Ideally if you can do 2 press release a month that will be the most optimum but think of press release as like paying for a tv commercial. TV commercials are way more expensive and harder to measure success.

Also when creating content the most effective content on the internet is information entertainment AKA Infotainment. Know this and you will be fine.

Said the Best Fairy Ever...

This is great!! How, exactly, did you arrive at this little gem of erroneous information?

This is not going to help with sign-ups:

The site seems generic and kind of thrown together. There is nothing that makes me interested to know more, and things that give me pause.

What kinds of ads are you running to entice people to join as an affiliate or as a vendor?

Wait so you want marketers to do work for a charity of your choice?

You need to figure out what your goals are.

As soon as I read that statement, I'm out already, this sounds like a scam.

Look, the only real way you're going to build a network is providing some kind of competitive advantage over another one. The only way I'm joining a network is if it makes me more money, that's going to be pretty hard for you to accomplish if you're giving it away.

Hello David

I don't like your business idea, but I will make some comments.

First, what has Fundraising to do with Affiliate Marketing? I don't understand that at all. We are involved in Affiliate Marketing, it is the smallest part of our Business but we still make around US$3 million a year in affiliate commissions. If I don't understand the Fundraising/Affiliate Platform connection, I'm certain most newbies in facebook or Twitter are not going to.

If you were wanting to fundraise for Movember then certainly Facebook an Twitter are excellent platforms for that, you would leaverage other large FB Groups/Pages to gain the required numbers an support. Groups/Pages that have large numbers of men who might give support to your cause.

So my answer as to why you are not getting any Affiliates is your typical male thinking, absolutely confusing an confusing everyone else at the same time! I'm half razzing you but it is true!

So how to test your Affiliate Platform. Simple as pie, you sign up 1 NEW Merchant to start with. You need to find a Company that does NOT have an Affiliate program, but has viable products or services that could be sold by Affiliates, then convince them that you have the expertise to setup an handle that for them.

Now with a new Merchant to promote you look for some place that Affiliate Markers might hang out in reasonable numbers. Umm, I wonder if there would be any in the WARRIOR FORUM ?

I don't think you will be able to build a very successful Business unless you concentrate on building your own exclusive Merchant base.

I don't like the name "AllegroAffiliates". I generally don't like most of your website copy, as others have said it is too much an too confusing, cut out the BS an make it simple an clear to read. You need to get your message read in seconds, not days!

We are different to most, we don't like plain websites, we like Headers an graphics on our pages, so I don't agree with one comment that said go for a plain black type/ white page look.

I also don't agree with another comment that said Social Media does not generate sales. You use Social Media, Facebook, Twitter, etc to generate interest, to drive people to your websites an to build list's, etc. Our Affiliate Marketing is based on marketing to our own lists, an those lists have mainly been generated from Facebook.

All extremely valid points irawr. Thank you

Steve has made some excellent points for you. Let me add that you have a lot of dull boring text, but no eye catching images. Notice that the human eye will focus on people's faces, so those should be near your CALL TO ACTION, and highlight or BOLD all the most important parts of your body copy. Please add an info graphic where you show how your service can improve conversion. Also, create a show case... for your main accounts and try to look at competitors pages. That will give you a lot of ideas on how to spruce up your main page.

Remember that we do not ever get a second chance to make a first impression. Often we have only a few seconds to convince our client to buy our superior services. Make every word of your body copy count and try to hook them with a special offer that is good - THIS WEEK ONLY!

When i land on your page, i have no idea what your website does. I have no idea what your site is all about. No headline or anything. It looks corporate "cookie-cutter". It confuses me, and the traffic from your social promotions might be a problem also. I would throw some paid advertising real quick to targeted prospects, and see how the page reacts to a different source of direct traffic.
