Conversions Sucking?

spacemanspiff · 2005-08-25, 08:25 AM

Has anyone else noticed a sharp decline in conversions over the last few days.

Our incoming traffic has been normal. Outgoing to sponsors has actually been up slightly. Sales are down by about 30 % or so.

I'm wondering if it could be processor issues, or maybe back to school time?

Ramster · 2005-08-25, 09:14 AM

Well 2 days ago I had one of my days ever! But yesterday was lower than normal and today is slow so far too.

Cleo · 2005-08-25, 09:17 AM

CCBill had issues for over a week and as a result I got the worst check so far this year this week but yesterday was a best day that I've had so far this year.

Sales with my non CCBill sponsors have been a bit slow so far this month but still decent.

MadMax · 2005-08-25, 10:05 AM

I'd say a bit below average but not too bad overall. Last month was my best month ever, and this month is definitely not too shabby.

King Porn · 2005-08-25, 10:23 AM

Not to shabby lately for me.

2msacras · 2005-08-25, 10:25 AM

it's been odd last week was my best week ever for ratios...but this week is below average with more traffic

docholly · 2005-08-25, 10:31 AM

I normally only check like 1 time per week cuz i find that like a watched pot, if i don't peek i don't Boil. Well looks like this week i'm not only not selling sucking but not selling camhoes or big boobs or bbw as well.. |pissed| and with the new college kids starting back with their newly minted Visa and MC's i'd think this week would have been better.

oh well next will be better!! Hope, like hard cocks, springs eternal.

I'm hopeful I will get to the point soon when I can see daily fluctuations in my sales. Right now any day with a sale is a good day.

LOL yep, that's about right

my conversions are actually pretty good, it's getting the traffic there that counts for me.

now that I've got a handle on the sponsors that work for me I'm hoping that the "summer slowdown" is over & I'll see some more action.

ynuahayt · 2005-08-25, 11:36 AM

The last couple of days have been some of the best ever for me and overall August has been the month where I have made the most in this biz yet

pornrex · 2005-08-25, 11:43 AM

I had complained to UW last week about this and he told me to check out this thread: http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/...ad.php?t=23147.

There was a five day period there last week that REALLY sucked for me.

spacemanspiff · 2005-08-25, 12:01 PM

Usually our sales are pretty consistent, within a certain range. Last few days have been below the bottom end. Most of the time that happens it's a processor issue and it reverses the next day or the day after.

Someone else pointed out that it could be that big, whoopty-doo virus that's going around.

It could also be "just one of those things".

And docholly, I like the way you think. |rock|

Rocco · 2005-08-25, 12:12 PM

sales down here as well

Surfn · 2005-08-25, 12:49 PM

This continues to be my best summer of the millennium.

Stouch · 2005-08-25, 03:49 PM

Great summer overall but this past 5 or 6 days hasnt been good.

2msacras · 2005-08-25, 04:36 PM

hopefully today will be a sign of a turn around....things are picking up so maybe the week wont be a lost for me

spacemanspiff · 2005-08-25, 08:48 PM

Early indicators look promising. Sites that were sucking are picking back up. Feels like web issues rather than broke ass or distracted surfers.

ronnie · 2005-08-25, 09:05 PM

Month over all has been quite good, but yes, last day or two has been some slow sales.

Jeka · 2005-08-25, 09:52 PM

Very bad the last few days and last week there were a few days aswell.
Yesterday was really horrible, 0:30k today 1:5k, the days before were also twice as bad as normal with 1:2k, I think there must be processor troubles.

Halfdeck · 2005-08-26, 01:43 AM

Just when a sponsor goes 50 / sale my ratio hits the floor.

Hmm then again I just checked my stats and i got another sale from them, so i guess i spoke too soon.

SirMoby · 2005-08-26, 12:16 PM

It seems that every time one of these threads is started any where (a couple of month) there as just as many people unhappy with sales that are happy with sales.

Yeah, that's really true. There are so many different factors that effect sales that it's like comparing apples to aircraft carriers.

I was just wondering if anyone else had noticed a dip in sales with incoming and outgoing traffic remaining consistent, which would indicate an outside factor or a problem with sponsors. Just curious.

I'll be honest with you SS, I asked the same question to UW last week. I honestly believe that something is definitely up because my traffic last week was consistent with the pace of my traffic from the week before, yet, I had a horrible week last week. This week is only slightly better.

I don't know enough to question whether its a 'shave' issue or whether the processing guys are having serious security breaches or what not. I do want to say that I sure hope that this type of phenomenon is not normal.

King Porn · 2005-08-26, 04:44 PM

I can't say that I am happy, but this week started out with a bang. Things seem to have fizzled out as the week progressed.
