They don't seem to be placed any differently, have about the same quality and hold up good on the site (as far as appearance/price/user options) but something's a no go.

Has anyone ever experienced this? If so, any solutions/suggestions?

It would be an awesome help! I'd hate to can the sponsor, but I feel that may the only solution if all else fails...

Are you tracking banner clicks on your own, or depending on the sponsor's stats?

Sometimes a sponsor's sites just aren't a good fit for your traffic. There's one sponsor everybody loves that I just can't seem to send traffic to. It's so bad it's just silly.

(Of course, the other day, out of nowhere, I made a sale - 1:14 ratio on that one site. Somehow I snagged a stray.)

Maybe your traffic is overexposed to that particular sponsor (I suspect that's the issue I have) or maybe their selling style is somehow incompatible with yours. It could be something very simple or it could be a number of combined factors.

If you come up with a clear answer, let me know!
