I feel certain it's the same boat for most of us with respect to affiliate marketing, it's not the King's ransom that's for sure. I have a couple of sponsors who just aren't converting at all, and I'm talking like in excess of six month's or more with no sales. Here's what I find curious, I am getting consistent sales with a few other programs, and that's off of virtually the same traffic sources, and these are new sales and re-bills.

The long and short of it is I'm seeing significant 'join hits', but no sales. Now I know that during the recession there were several programs that were shaving, and I wouldn't want to point the finger, but it just doesn't seem possible to me that I would be seeing zero sales from certain programs. The other coincidence towards these programs is they've dramatically cut back on their production costs, buying content on the cheap and it looks perhaps as if they've gotten in a little in over their head from the standpoint of maintenance and operating costs.

Just curious, is anyone is noticing any similar situation to where you feel your traffic or promotions should be converting but they're not.
