How are your ratios lately?

Blnt · 2005-04-21, 06:22 PM

Yeah,
I dont know whats happening... I always got some sales, but like two weeks ago the shit started... traffic is the same, amount of traffic is even increasing but there is almost no sales. Have you noticed this 'no sales thing' too?

Head Boy · 2005-04-21, 06:26 PM

I'm well down with a couple of sites. I'm also getting some chargebacks on rebills. I've just re-done the front end of one site to see if that helps.

I blame it on Bill Gates for making affiliate link theft so easy.

Greenguy · 2005-04-21, 06:43 PM

Better this month that the previous 3, but 21 days is too short a time frame for me to say anything with confidence.

Bill · 2005-04-21, 06:57 PM

Brutal in some niches.

Ramster · 2005-04-21, 07:02 PM

Seem ok overall. There's 1 or 2 that are lower than normal that is only a blip for the past week.

GeorgeTH · 2005-04-21, 07:19 PM

I remember I have been a little 'worried'*) arount the 15th 'cause things were much slower than normal (maybe the Pope's death and funeral reminded everybody that "porn is bad" - LOL - who knows?) - but then that's the way it goes all the time:

have you ever posted a similar question when your ratios were a lot better than average for a week or two?
No: you've probably sat there and quietly enjoyed it... |clown|

*) worried mostly because I had just moved to 2 new servers = more than doubling my hosting expenses - and I hate to be locked into high fixed expenses...

Blnt · 2005-04-21, 07:41 PM

GeorgeTH,
No i have never had so huge amount of sales to post it here...

but yes, since Pope died everything fallen... no rebills, almost no sales man, that sucks ass

Anyway, there is no other way than do my job and sit quiet hehe
thanks for all the answers

chilihost · 2005-04-21, 10:25 PM

I think the pope & tax time in the USA slowed things down but they are picking up again this week.

cheers,
Luke

natalie · 2005-04-21, 10:28 PM

yup not a great month for me either

juggernaut · 2005-04-21, 11:35 PM

Me I don't have sales yet so maybe I should not comment. But my thought is that its been nice weather on the east coast latly and people are just getting outside. I live by NYC and I think I heard some place that 1200 miles outside of nyc is 70% of the us population.

plateman · 2005-04-21, 11:56 PM

the start of the month was good and died and the start of the 2nd period was great and went to shit had 6 sales sat with NO big listings and it died and last 4 days suck had a couple sales from my LL.. had a good couple of months before this month and if if dont change I'll be on welfare in may - all I can say is keep hammering and find new traffic sources...

MrYum · 2005-04-22, 01:11 AM

The numbers here have been pretty bleak the past few weeks

Part of that is due to a drop in traffic though...was busy renovating my internal link site to take it public.

Not submitting free sites for a few weeks definitely put a dent in the ol bottom line.

Add to the drop in traffic the fact that ratios are higher across the board...and yep...pretty bleak

But, as it always seems to...it WILL get better!

Rocco · 2005-04-22, 02:57 AM

hmm, don't know: all I can say that ratios overall got worse over the last 4 years

Head Boy · 2005-04-22, 05:27 AM

So it's not just that my tired old sites suck then.

stuveltje · 2005-04-22, 11:40 AM

mmmm when my favorite sponsors dropped i noticed the others which i dont like very much went up in sales, realy i never wll understand this bizz

Robbo · 2005-04-22, 11:43 AM

Put me down for a less than stellar month.

Vink · 2005-04-22, 12:32 PM

The worst month in a long time for me.
When am I going to be able to coast and relax a lttle bit?

nekrom · 2005-04-22, 12:55 PM

This Month is fantastic, Just like the one before, and before. Slight dip in traffic I will admit though.

LOL! Nice to be missed...thanks Ramster

I really wasn't sluffing off though...I swear! Had to get my link list ready so I could get back to the joys of site reviews

I know...I know...BACK TO WORK! hehehe

stuveltje · 2005-04-22, 02:09 PM

Ramster is right Mr Yum, all the linksites i review the owners told me to link you no matter how many sites, and its bin a long time i saw your sites

looking forward to see them again

Useless · 2005-04-22, 03:03 PM

I'm always much more surprised when I gets sales than when I don't. I can't really look at it as ratios, but more of warped arrows occasionally hitting a target that was blown over in a crosswind.
