Hi, I cannot make sales with my website. I had 1000 unique visitors last month and I will have around 3000 this month. I mainly think it is conversion problems. Please give your oppinion on what I could do to make my website convert better. Also, please look at any of the blog posts and tell me what I could do to them to make them convert better. Thanks for your time! gemgadget(dot)com

        Have a bit of patience, this is a forum not live chat.

        Spamming the forum with threads like you are is one very quick way to seeing yourself kicked out.

          You have a nice looking site in a high paying niche that should be earning good money with the traffic levels you have.

          Your problem is in the lead capture and you need to change it asap.

          You have a nice photo of the camera and then below that an amazon advert. That sucks! No one is going to click it. At best, they'll make a mental note to check out amazon later.

          You need phpzon which is a wordpress plugin for displaying amazon listings. You will be able to display the photo, description, ratings and price and your affiliate ID will b embedded automatically. The photo will be a live link etc etc

          It will transform your earnings.

        May be this is why, you don't make any conversions with your site, as you spam your visitors as well!!

          For people who enter your site, end up buying propductos entries have to focus your website on words by which a buyer escriviria.

          For example.

          I want to buy a car, people come to your site by those words end up buying and if by the mitadad big cars not to buy.

          That is, you have your website posicioanr the words of prospective buyers.

            Where is your opt-in form? All I see is a helpful review site, I can't even see what you're selling. If it isn't obvious to the reader in the first 10 seconds then you've lost them.

    It is a nice review site. I don't quite understand why there is no conversion.

    You have to build a list.

    When the visitors land on your page, they are "strangers" and they are skeptical because they don't know you. When you give them a free report in exchange for their name and email, they will trust you more because they perceive you as a giver and not a taker.

    After that, you can send them useful information, build relationship with them and turn them into "prospects". Once they trust you, it is much easier to sell to them and you can turn them into "customers". Eventually some will become "long term customers" and you can sell to them over and over again.

    Think big, think long term and build a list!


    I sincerely wish you all the very best!


    To your success,

    Ensure that your website reaches the targeted audience. It is where the problem starts. Sites like traffic exchanges do deliver traffic to your site in large numbers, but it is off target in nature. Make sure that your traffic is really potential in nature. You should start niche forum marketing too.

    It may have something to do with the type of traffic you are using. For example, if you are using random facebook traffic and the people who are clicking have no desire to buy anything related to your site, then your conversions are going to suck. Also make sure your affiliate links are working correctly.

    Two things others have said that might be your biggest problems.

    1. what type of people are you getting? I suspect you might be getting tyre kickers and not people intersted in buying. You can be getting 1 million people a month, but if they are all just interested in reading information and don't have any money, or don't want to spend their money, then you are not going to see great results. If you are ranking for the right keywords then unless you really mess up, you won't be able to stop yourself from making a few sales. I suspect you aren't ranking for any buying type keywords and that this is a major problem.

    2. Stop getting some leads. Start offering something others don't, like a guide to how to choose the best Camera, gadget or whatever.

    You get the idea (I hope).

      • Digital Camera

      • Laptops
      • Phones
      • Gaming Consoles


      Below are keywords that you should focus on.


      • Sony XBR55HX929
      • Sharp Elite PRO-70X5FD
      • Canon ELPH 100 HS
      This, and your site looks awfully generic. Why don't you have some people on Fiverr do video reviews or show some interesting products for you?

      You could also add more interesting blog posts, tips, advice, QnA, stuff like that. Don't be generic.

    Forget about making sales mate - if your getting 3k uniques I'd be asking myself how can I get them to sign up to a mailing list!! If you offer them a great free product and steadily build your list you'll be able to market to these and sell to them repeatedly over time.

    First sale is the hardest to achieve - after that you'll get on a roll

    ...where do you start here...

    site needs a lot of work to be a decent one that someone will click any buy button on it! website needs to be looking super legit to convert in these situations... just my 2 cents here but this site needs more than 2 cents...

      it is an affilliate site so....

      on the right where you have a top rated list the top rated gadgets... also give something away for free within your niche, and capture the email address.

      your visitors how much of them are actually looking to buy camera's, tv computers etc..... your keywords are to broad, you need to get really into the deeper sub markets and find those keywords such as as mentioned above.

      being to broad people might not want to buy, you need to hit customers that are actually looking to pull their credit cards out and make payment, just a simple review is all it takes to convince them to buy from you. that's down to specifi keywords that you target.

      slow down ...... out of desperation you can make mistakes... making money online takes a bit of time but once you do you just rinse and repeat.

      the site is good, just do some more research on keywords.
