Default Clickbank?

I'm using Clickbank affiliate links in my sidebars on my sites, about 4 or 5 links per site. I'm getting hardly any sales. In the last 30 days I had almost 3700 clicks with not a sale.

Anyone have any similar experiences? I'm seriously considering getting rid of them because doing a conservative estimate of only half those clicks going to Adsense at $0.10 cents per click that would be $185.

Thanks,
Mike

Alot of those reported clicks will be bots and spiders crawling the site I think. Have you even had that much traffic to the site this month?

Maybe try some other products. The ones you have choose might just have a crappy sales page.

Hi Robert,

The Clickbank ads (along with Adsense) are on a total of 27 sites so I think I have enough traffic to get the 3700 clicks but you may be right in that it could be bots but I have never heard of that before effecting the Clickbank analytics.

I chose most of the ads using clickbank gravity so I thought the ads should have been good but I will take another look.

Mike,

Where do those Clickbank ads take your visitors?

Boris,

Uh? ... to the clickbank products. They are in all different niches, from health to technology.

Mike,

If you could point visitors from your banner ad on same domain to presell page (90 DC product review page) on same domain, then conversions could be somewhat higher.

I am not sure however - just an assumption, but you could try.
