The curious thing I am seeing in my affiliate stats (sites that I am an affiliate of) is that this is the first month ever where the initial sales are higher than rebills.
Anyone else seeing something off with their rebill ratio? |

I lost a lot of rebills on a very good retention NATS site.

Are you just looking at a customer that has a recurring subscription and cancels or are you looking also at the customer that has a recurring subscription and cancels, then manual renews by signing up again the same month or within 30 days? On a side note, I'm often surprised at how many people pay my non recurring subscription fee and manually renew EVERY month. |

So true... adding a non recurring option was the best thing we ever did...it's probably because people don't trust the automatic rebilling option

Really? I do not have any idea. I use this sponsor for about 3-4 years and I always have a whole lot of rebillers. Now it seems I lost a whole ot of them.
A normal average month is 22 rebills. This month: 6 (I had 3 rebills today). A normal month is 12-15 joins. This month: 2 Today it is the 24th: that means 1:8000 (uniques).

CCBill: Since thurday late afternoon till now it is indeed slightly better... I am now at 75-80% of normal. It is really better but we can''t say it's rocking!
NATS: slightly better, but it will not save my month.

But in this matter...could you explain my why it's a bad idea to have one non recurring option among all the recurring ones? Numbers (small, yeah) tells us that we have lots of people using the non recurring and then join again...please, switch on a bit of light inside my brain ![]()

Regarding non-recurring, the money is in recurring subscriptions. So maybe use some intuition and offer a non-recurring option as a secondary option. User clicks to ccbill join page and sees only recurring options, he/she says fuck that and X's out, that's when you offer the non-recurring option. Hope that helps. |

Ratios have been good here the past 2 weeks. But I don't push much these days.
I agree with the sales "switch" I've often seen periods of nothing then all of a sudden BOOM! bunch of sales come in one go. I don't care too much these days, ccbill is just beer money ![]() |

It was slightly better during my last update till last weekend (weekend of October 8 and 9). Monday October 11 was OK but then since Tuesday October 11 my sales went down again. The NATS site with rebills has the same issues.

Your ass must really hurt, having pulled a massive number like that out of it and all...
My ony problem with CCBill is that my ratios are pretty much the same now as they were back in 1999/2000. Maybe CCBill gives preferential treatment to clients who have been promoting their products for over a decade? I dunno... Why don't you wrap some tinfoil around your head and examine the situation in a gamma-ray-free environment? Couldn't hurt. |

September 1 to October 15, this year:
1:363.8 1:120.6 Raw clicks, Unique clicks. This also includes "Affiliates without Sales" checked - and I have a bunch of affiliates without sales. This sample includes well over 100 sales and rebills (rebills are not included in the sales ratio, btw... it only includes initial sales...) Maybe 100+ sales per week. I'm not saying... If I exclude the affiliates that don't sell for me, this my CCBill ratio - Sept. 1 to Oct. 15: 1:289.3 1:109.7 - Raw - Unique. I can't complain. All I CAN do is continue to find CCBill sites that suit my traffic. Everyone abandon ship - I'll pick up the slack. (I tried to check stats for 2001 as a comparison, but I only get a list of total sales - no ratios.) |

I'm doing ok with CCbill, I found no negative changes within the past few months and I like their professional support (I speak for myself).

My CCBILL sales seems to come in waves.. and I'm not talking about the every 15 minute emails.. I track my sales realtime, and still they very very often come in waves..
I can have 3 hours without a single sale and then 4 sales within 5 minutes.. happens all the time. |

something is not far from ridiculous if you compare my stats with my stats of the previous months, seriously... (and even without this double chargeback+ refund that i have to pay because there is a hole in their process)
and other people claim that their stats are ok in the same time... |

I prefer ccbill size I'm a small fish. We all know they pay u no matter what and on time. I am always looking for new ccbill sponsors and te first thing I do is a search. 9 times out of 10 the top results are from torrents - not tubes. My advice is for people to stop crying about sales and start filing copyright claims. I bet u get a shit ton more sales once your full site rips aren't appearing in the top 10 google searches. But that wouldtake actual work instead of complaining so I don't see that happening any time soon.

I have seen a the increase in ratios the last couple of months myself. my ratios are bad.. but no were near that level.
we designed 10 new tours.. and a/b tested everyone.. and then created 3 new tours based off the winner.. however.. I will tell you this.. What had made a HUGE fucking difference more than anything is NATS tracking.. we use nats to do the tracking.. and ccbill to do the payout and this mix seem to help keep our affiliate rates much more normal ( under 1:2000 for solo girls) and around 1:3000 for multi girl sites.. i have just had all types of problems with ccbill tracking.. so I designed my own tracking.. and just redirecting the traffic... i lost traffic like 20% to 80% of the time.. without knowing why.. You can ask a lot of webmaster who switch from ccbill to nats.. they end up paying out a lot more because nats tracking in so much better.. my personal nats / ccbill account for this month 1:2550 to american kittens ( with over 10 sales) and 100% of that traffic is from the hun.. ( it is only place i submit to.. because it is easy and my galleries are clean) 1:2500 of hun traffic is really good I think.. ( it didn't cost me a dime and I made around 1,700 over the last 30 days.) It is something to think about.. finding programs that use Nats and CCbill, I know there isn't a lot of them.. but we are one of the few.. Im will to help most affiliate webmaster with reasonable requests.. so please check out - http://richcash.com/track/Mi4zLjIuMy4wLjAuMC4wLjA thank you |
