Interesting stuff. I knew this post would kinda look spammy so I didn't care that POVPorn tried to hijack it. I'm easy to get along with. Whatever.
We are making some tweaks to our tour. We've had the same tour since we first started the site 4 months ago and we have had some people tell us it appears like the site never gets updated so we're adjusting it accordingly to show recent girls added to the site. That will be done within the next 5 days. Hopefully that'll help your ratios, fuzebox. We do update every Saturday...brand new scene....for the record.
Myself, I started a series of 10 blogs in October. Real blogs, hand-written posts. It's sort of tough lining up girls, shooting, editing AND doing some blogs but we've got enough material to last us thru the end of January so I figured I'd give this blogging a go.
I started the blogs with the intent to promote my own site but I signed up for 10 other sponsors as well figuring the traffic that comes in to my blogs that I can't sell on my own site, I'll at least have alternatives for them and can maybe make a couple extra bucks anyway. Now, my blogs are literally 45 days old so these ratios are 100% meaningless but I'm converting at 1:264 uniques for November, thus far, which adds up to a whopping $83 in my pocket. :-) But, that's not bad for 45 day old blogs, I don't think. So, even if I don't do another sale this month, I'll end up around 1:530 which isn't bad for brand new blogs. Based on what I'm reading from others above, I should be pretty happy if I'm able to keep that ratio going.
And then, another question, do you analyze the number of people who enter your site compared to the number of people who click on a sponsor link? If you get 10,000,000 hits a day but only 5 people click a link, your sales ratios will look great but your overall cost/benefit ratio will suck donkey ass. It appears I'm getting about 7% of my incoming traffic to click on a link to an affiliate. Is that about average for you guys? Since my blogs are so new, the majority of my traffic is from blog listing services and some purchased backlinks. My thoughts are that once my blogs age a bit and get some SE traffic, that ratio will improve.
Anyway, just wondering. Saturdays are my days for inflection and brain-storming. :-)
