If a person has a predisposition to not purchase a product they already have a distaste for, nothing will make them buy it. I will agree with that - even though it's not really relative to the point I was making. Im assuming the surfer is at a tranny site because he or she is interested in that content. Keep in mind that certain types of subliminal advertising are illegal for a very good reason. You cant make a person buy, but they can be heavily persuaded.
BTW, here are some things you can do now to increase signups.
#1. Cascading signup pages and processors. Waypay offers this for a very reasonable price and depending on your current processor it will increase your sales 10-20%. Basicly it runs your delined signups through multiple processors so you can regain those sales. Mansionproductions offers the same software for about $12000.00 but Waypay can set you up for a few hundred. Im sure others offer this too but I just dont know of any. In all fairness mansionproductions offers a paysite and reseller package and its much more inclusive.
#2. If you have 4 tour pages put a small gif on each one.
tour1.html = tour1.gif
tour2.html = tour2.gif
tour3.html = tour3.gif
tour4.html = tour4.gif
Stats can be hard to use and most offered by hosting companies are almost useless. So, with this we can go to our stats and see which gif is requested the most and know which tour pages are hit the most. You should be able to figure out something like this.
tour1.gif= 30,000 requests
tour2.gif= 20,000 requests
tour3.gif= 5,000 requests
tour4.gif= 1,000 requests
When you look at how this adds up you see there's a 75% loss of traffic from tour2 to tour3 so delete tour2 and run the numbers again. You can also assume that tour1 is kicking ass and people are clicking through so that page design and layout are good. You can even model additional tour pages after it.
I know Im gonna be accused of over simplifying and thats true..
These are just some basics and keep in mind that your competitors use all these tools to their advantage. If you use every trick in the book it still only makes you competitive.
