OneVerify Sales Have Stopped - GoFuckYourself.com

Maca · 01-28-2003, 03:07 PM

Q and anyone else -

What is happening with OneVerify sales?

I and others have had nothing zero nada at all for a few days now. Clicks are being counted but sales are not.

My ratios are very predictable but this otherwise good ratio has completely blown out after last two days - whats up now?

They have the shave script set on high.. Just like Top Bucks, it starts off great then goes to hell..

Bobo · 01-28-2003, 03:20 PM

I keep getting spam from them, but I do use one of there programs and I recieved a check yesterday

I just have a few links on a small site and was surprised it made enough to even get a check. It was for $65 hehe

Maca · 01-28-2003, 03:30 PM

I'm really concerned at this since my premium sites are so predictable on the traffic they get.

I just cannot understand why they have these 24-48 hour periods of zero sales from time to time when they convert so predictably otherwise.

As for shaving - iIf there is a shave it must be of the variety that is 100% shave for a day or two and switched on every week or so lol

It's your marketing.

Maca · 01-28-2003, 04:17 PM

How do you reckon on that?

The sites are doing fine other than these 1-2 day stopages

Quentin · 01-28-2003, 04:41 PM

Edited per JFPDude's point made below, which is well taken.

Maca - sorry for posting that publicly. As you know from past dealings with me, I normally address specifics in private, but since the issue was raised in a public forum, I addressed it in that same forum.

You're right, though, JFPDude - that was more detail than I should have supplied on a board....

Maca · 01-28-2003, 04:56 PM

Thanks Quentin,

I guess I'm looking at specifics of conversion rates daily since this period started and given the traffic sources during that period can see that the conversion rate is predictable until the 26th.

Since then, you can see the number for yourself - there has been sufficient numbers of surfers sent to see that there is a sudden problem.

In other words, from my point of view the ratios before this period have little to do with it (due to some changes I've made since mid month).

Maca · 01-28-2003, 04:57 PM

Ahem and as you see from the sig I'm not pulling out - just want to get to the bottom of this and other problems I seem to be having!

JFPdude · 01-28-2003, 04:58 PM

Edited out ...

Thanks Quentin for being professional about it .

That is one of the easiest to come up with replies and you see it all the time. Just because there are 5 gaps of 2 days with no signups you can call it "the usual". Not saying you shave, it's just going to be hard to pass that off on anyone. I have never pushed your program so I have no idea.

However, I have had steady traffic to my sponsor for 2 years. My ratios are in the bag. I can tell from hits within a couple hundred bucks what I will make that week, day, month, etc. Traffic is very predictable. If he has slumps of 2 days with no signups in a row no less, and the figures don't look right overall I would worry.

Why does everyone think traffic from the same source is not predictable. I would bet he knows his traffic better than anyone. Like I said, you could tell me how many hits I would have this week and I could guess almost to the exact amount of my check. The only time this drops is when my sponsors site gets fried, etc. Even if the ratio drops over time it is a steady slow drop. Not gone in 60 seconds.

PEACE

/me scratches oneverify and topbucks off the list of people to deal with.

I think that was very unprofessional.

Since we agree that it was probably not a great idea for me to post those specifics, maybe you could edit my original post from your reply?

Not trying to be an ass, but if your concern is for Maca's privacy, that might be the kind thing to do...

No probs Q,

It wasn't really all THAT specific and mostly related to my 'experimental' period anyway

I brought it up here so as to get different viewpoints from anyone with a view - and this is not meant to sound sarky but - I've noticed that the surest way to get a quick response from several sponsors is to pose the question to the good folks at GFY!

Cool. And your point about getting quick responses from GFY posts is spot-on. As I said, we will definitely look at your account/stats closely, and make sure that everything is OK on our end.

Thanks again to JFP for calling me on that slip... it's been a long day, and the fingers got ahead of the brain for a moment there.

I don't send OV enough traffic at the moment to judge by them but certainly this month TB sales/ratios have taken a huge plunge, so much so that for several of the niches I use I now have to send the traffic elewhere. I'm presuming both TB and OV use the same payment processing so maybe it's a problem that end? If so I'm sure they'd be more than aware of it and are hopefully looking into it. If not maybe just time for me to push something else for a little bit for those niches. Odd thing though is that this was not gradual and can be traced back to Jan 1st (and were it a xmas maxed card thing then other sponsors would be showing the same which they are not). You expect little flucuations but a 50%+ drop is too much

On balance I like TB and love some of their sites/niches so will continue to use them I think. Just maybe time for a little break.
