I didn't say 50K to get ONE sale; I said send 50K to see how it does.

If you read the buildinganempire article, you'll see what I mean. (50K of popunder traffic has a 'value' of about $100; that's why I picked that amount of traffic).

You *cannot* base your conversion assumptions about traffic or about a program's capabilities on *ONE* sale.

I'm just trying to bust some commom myths about conversions ratios and how to test them. I get too many clients buying $25 worth of traffic, not getting one sale from it, and then concluding that either the traffic is crap, or the site is crap. It's just doesn't work that way; you need to send a *lot* more traffic than a few thousand hits to make any kind of judgement.
