How's your signup ratios for april so far ?

[Papa]

MINE SUCKS ASS
Very bad (mainly tgp traffic)
Hell even some SE won't f&cking convert

You ?

[KG Gary]

Awful, but I've only just started in the biz. (Freesites).
Late March was surprisingly good because I didn't expect much, but then things have really slumped in April.

There are so many factors that could be affecting my ratios at this early stage, and I see no patterns at all to point me in a better direction. Maybe it's just an April thing.
|huh

Still, chin up and all that.
:)

Same here...the anime that used to get me between 1:300-500 constantly (averaged over a 2 year period) has now hit 0:1000 :(

[Surfn]

With FC changing over to NATS I've lost all my prior recurring from them. Not a good move, if you know what I mean? |banghead|

[Useless]

Super - thanks for asking. |thumb

[mist]

I have build more stuff in April so the traffic are going up but the sales are going down, so it's not a good month.

[Toby]

My ratios are all over the map month to date depending on the program, but I don't pay much attention to short term trends. Total dollars is up, and that's all that really matters.

[MrYum]

April started off okay, but the past 10 days have sucked wind |banghead|

So, I'm going to get outside and spend the day working on my lawn...just ignore this machine for a day |thumb

Who is FC and why on earth did they disable your recurring?

[hotpussycat]

down

[plateman]

been ages and ages since I seen only 2 email sales for 2.20 in going on 5 fuckin days|angry|

[ponygirl]

the end of March & very beginning of April made me think I'd regressed a year or so lol but things have started to come back to normal in the last couple of weeks. just a blip, hopefully :)

FlashCash...dunno I sent them an email waiting for their reply. I've been getting my PPS from them at my normal rate...

Gald I'm not the only one! The first week of April was a good one but this week has sucked big time! |angry|

That's ridiculous, and should not be tolerated. A company that size has more than enough resources to bridge their scripts. Alternatively, leave the original billing accounts open in addition to the new nats install.

If they are not cancelling those rebilling members, this is outright fraud and should not be tolerated.

[babymaker]

looking good last few days :D webcam sales were shit for a bit but then started jumping all of a sudden, and creampie is always steady :)

[dif0r]

i love April :D my ratio was 1:800 now in April it's 1:500

[bunky2u]

Seen better.

Nice to know that I am not the only one who is having crappy sales.

[Mateusz]

I can't complain.. so far better than march,
and finally I see my SE traffic growing every day :) |thumb

[Lemmy]

All over the place, but consistently and predictably so: My best sponsor I can pretty much tell on the spot how many signups I'm going to get from a certain amount of freesites/traffic and my worst sponsors are like playing the lottery. Those in between fluctuate quite a bit but at the end of the day the money is worth the effort.

Overall so far in April traffic seems to be a bit down, but the money is the same or slightly better than March.

[Xeno]

Must be an issue with everyone because I know a couple others who asked me in emails and messenger how mine have been...everyone seems to be down by a little to a lot, including mine. I'm wondering how much of it is lost but given to this joker who has spammed yahoo (and some in google) with so much of his sites (and funky URLs) on a ton of keyword varieties and taking over the top few to several page results....I bet that is where everyones sales are going.

Overall though, yes, it appears everyone is dropping big time...including traffic actually too. Somethings wacked for sure...part of the business I guess you can say. Just have to keep at it because at times there are moments of huge positive changes -- just wish there were more :) lol...

[virgohippy]

I just figured the porno-gods were still punishing me for being a newbie.

But I'm actually getting sales now, so I don't care. =)

[pvtspanky]

The second week of every month, sales slow down for me. I start getting worried, then things pick back up towards the end. It's a crazy pattern that I just do not understand.

[MrYum]

Statsremote is your friend :D

Or, possibly...during times like this...your worst fuckin enemy |angry|

Great time saver...but can get a bit frustrating when you KNOW no sales are coming in. I usually shut the fucker down during slow times...then get a pleasant surprise when I fire it up again in a few days |thumb

I LOVE stats remote. When I lost my C drive and had to reformat a few weeks ago, I lost ALL my stats remote data and had to re-set it up. I did that before I installed most of the programs I need.

I really do need a 12-step program for stats checking, lol. But it really helps to turn off sponsors that stop working and turn up sponsors that are hot.

My sales have been up and down too...but I've been doing a LOT of redesigns, just doing a 3rd one, so I think it is that more than any trend.
