Advice Need for New Warrior Member
I've been meaning to do this for a long time. I thought that I could just figure this out on my own, but I'm about to throw in the towel. Everyone says get involved in the forums and I've been stubborn to this point. Any, advice can help and I'm not looking for a "step-by-step system" or "magic formula", just some advice.
OK, so I've been trying affiliate marketing for about two years now. My first site was a bust and more of a learning experience (bad target market). Moving from that I launched a fitness site (Daily Workout Reviews - Workout Reviews and Advice for Practical Results) about a year ago and things haven't gotten much better.
The current site stats for the last month are:
- 4185 targeted visitors a month from SEO & social media
- Avg. Visit Duration of 1:20
- Bounce Rate of 82.78%
I know that the bounce rate sucks and so does the visitor duration. I installed a new plugin for related posts and the bounce rate fell to 78% and visitor duration increased to 1:54 in the last week.
I have outsourced link building and it seems to be steady at 8-30 links per day. All links are diverse in anchor text and placement (social bookmarking, directory listings, blog comments, etc.). I have also used some fiverr gigs and onlywire for more traffic.
I have been slacking on article creation because of college, but have decided to add one article everyday from now on. I outsource these articles through iWriter and have related them to some YouTube videos.
Alright enough with the rambling. I would just like some advice on my site (Daily Workout Reviews - Workout Reviews and Advice for Practical Results) and what it would take to convert more visitors.
Sorry if this post seem like another plea for help. Just looking for a few ideas. If you would like me to look at your site and give my impressions, I'd be glad to help in return.
Thanks,
Rob
