Affiliate link question

by organicgirl6
4 replies
I have been running my blog since April, added affiliate links in June/July. Since then, I continually check the exit links on statcounter and noone has clicked any of my links! Is there anything I can do to speed this process along...or is that simply just what this is...a process? I've even wrote blog posts with links inserted and it doesn't seem as though anyone has clicked them. Any feedback on my site is also much appreciated. Thanks, Warriors!

    Hey Organicgirl:

    Do you know how many visitors a day your blog is receiving? I assume so, since you are using a statcounter. Have you considered using google Analytics? I find their stats to be far superior to anything else I have tried.

    Also, most affiliate networks will show you how many clicks your links are receiving.

    I also just took a quick look at your blog. Its actually pretty nice! However, your links are red! This is a very uncommon color for hyperlinks. I think you will get more clicks if the links are blue and Underlined. Also, you will see a noticeable increase in your click through rate if you make your offer more obvious. Tell your reader to visit the link! Add a large button that says "Click Here" to try it out.

    Anyway, hopefully some of those pointers will be useful.

    I agree with the comments made by The Redfox.

    Your blog looks great; graphics and layout are very nice.

    Hyperlinks should be left in the default blue color as this is the way most surfers expect to see them.
