IwantU stats the WORST i have ever seen on a dating site - GoFuckYourself.com

layinglow · 06-09-2007, 02:59 PM

i know how to work my traffic, and i know how to sell. i put iwantu into the rotation on a couple of my seo campaigns, fake dating testimonial sites, etc..

out of 1013 free profiles, only 13 of them converted to paid joins.

now, this is all search engine traffic, i have my own geo dating banners created inhouse that sends to multiple dating sites, this is how it has been broken down as of the 25th of may:

1/4 hits to iwantu, 1/4 to fling, 1/4 to aff and 1/4 to dating gold.
ALL THREE of the other datings sites outperformed iwantu by more than a 25% margin. and i am not talking about the # of signups, i am talking about cash in my pocket, which is the bottom line. 100$ signup doesnt mean shit when sites that pay 75$ per signup are destroying them in conversions.

either i am getting shaved like a porno whores twat, or there is something seriously wrong on how they are sending out their mailers etc to upgrade members to paid joins.

ahh that felt better
carry on

Thats pretty appauling, but why don't you use rev share with that kind of leverage?

Strange, they do well for me.

there is no point in using revshare on dating sites these days. back when the standard pay was 25-30$ per join, then sure, revshare was great.

but with all these companies offering 75-80 per signup, it will take you 4-5 months at 60% to earn the 75-80$ on revshare. Easier to look at it as a "present value on an annuity" and take the lump sum and use it to reinvest into more marketing angles.

Hey LL,

Please send me your account and we can investigate your account, as I have a hard time believing SE traffic can do so bad. You would pretty much be our worst-converting affiliate of all-time with those numbers
