All of last year (2007): 412 signups at a ratio of 1:687
January 1st - 31st, 2008: 32 signups at a ratio of 1:1228
February 1st - 29th, 2008: 32 signups at a ratio of 1:943
March 1st - 31st, 2008: 41 signups at a ratio of 1:879
April 1st - April 19th, 2008: 4 signups at a ratio of 1:5211

And yes, I am using the same traffic sources as I always have. You can't really explain a ratio pretty much dropping from one day to the next from 1:1k or better to 1:5k unless there is a sudden change of some type.

My other sponsors are converting the same as they always have off of the same type of traffic I am sending to NastyDollars.
It's relieving that I'm not the only one and I am sure there are many more out there with the same problem but this is not a good news, obvious. I start to think the problem is spreaded, a bit from our traffic but ND has to change something, too. I've blamed the porn tube sites for offering tooooo fucking much free porn, so? how on earth a surfer would sign-up?
Although my long lasting traffic partners are, overall the same, I've added some other ones down the road, at their turn they might have some cheaters in their trades which are spreading bots and shit. It's so hard to catch those mo-fo's these days but how can we track them down? This could be another reason why the sign-ups dropped so fast.
