50k and only 86 signups today? wtf?
 

hmm

This is defying all laws of physics here!

I sent 50k to a gallery promoting ebony, the traffic was from 3 paid spots, as well as 3 VIP submit accounts i have, and a bunch of smaller TGP's.

50k to the gallery

709 to the sponsor

and only 68 signups?

wtf?


heres the gallery:
http://www.asiasbabes.com/gal/ebony/index.html



did i majorly fuck this up somehow?

Where did you buy the traffic from?

well first off...you can tell a total whitey wrote the text....ebony surfers like a little flair in text..like you really do love what your doing..

Wait a minute... you got 68 signups out of 709 hits to a sponsor and you're complaining?

Maybe I'm not reading the post right. Because that's like 1:10 ratio.

What am I reading wrong?

:ugone2far

Rather not say, i dont want them thinking that im implying they have shit traffic, this could be 100% my fault, thats why im asking

Someone get me a new pair of boots, Its getting difficult walking around in all this HORSESHIT

sssshhh

i think he's complaining about the click-thru rate on the gallery. 50k hits, and only 709 clicked thru to the sponsor.

You read right, you probably didn't visit the sponsor and notice it's a 4Free sponsor though...

WG

I think he's FULL OF SHIT..

exactly

the ratio is 1:9 but thats not what im complaining about ...

Doing my math i see it this way ...

50k to the gallery ...
5% CTR = 2,500
1:9 = 277 signups


I SHOULD have gotten 277 signups (based on my math) which is why i didnt mind dishing out the bucks for the spots.

I need to correct this FAST before anymore traffic comes and i waste it.

title reads: 86 signups
message reads: 68 signups


...which is it? Get your story straight O.J.!!!

is it 86? or 68? either way, playboy...that's a great ratio from a so-so ebony gallery hosted on an "asiababes" domain.

lol@dunn....

you got 68 (or 86) signups on that gallery?

free signups

yeah its only 1 dollar per sign so nothing special still 1:10 aint to shabby ctr blows however.

the first mistake is pushing a email sponsor from a tgp gallery

email should be your last ditch effort to get a sale

btw 5% clickthru is pretty good

why would i lie about an email sponsor? lol

Erm, going from 1 free site to another...

Whats the interest in that gallery? They've already hit your site from a free site, I imagine they'll just close the gallery and scroll down for more.

Promote something unique, or atleast put some unique text there.

i just figured if i can pull 1:8-1:15 (which i can), this would work out pretty well.

Aparently i was wrong? lol


What can i do to quickly increase my CTR?

try to be more creative with your galleries,

a good gallery layout could take over 3 hours to make

So your saying this layout is bad? I actually liked it ... figured it was the text thats throwing off my CTR, not my layout.

what is the sponsor that you are using ?

the problem is that you need to Maximize your CTR,

your not gonna get alot of clicks so its better to send it
to a say $35 sponsor,

say on the average if you convert 1:250 it'll come out better than email sponsor

send the traffic to a FPA from the gallery then add exit to email sponsor if they don't click on the FPA

thats how you maximize your traffic

compare it with others,, i am surprised you even got a 5%
which is pretty high

Promote something unique...? another adult niche? or adult product? Care to illuminate?

Who only pays .80 per email? BTW he has an in between page so you can expect higher conversion rates. But it you lose some surfers so your CTR is lower.

Hey playa ...

I understand what you mean about the $35 sponsor and the exit solution ...

I was actually just looking to modify this gallery without changing layout or banners .... just changing text.

Hoping that will increase CTR a bit more and possibly pay me back for the gallery spots, lol

My :2 cents: Nice FPA...I can see why you are getting fairly good ratios. Most people these days are lucky to get 1 in 25 or less with FEB.

i have this domain hosted on revsharehosting (for free) and they take $0.20 per signup on this sponsor. ($5 on other sponsors) per signup.


Good point with the inbetween page though, i bet if i remove it i will see a better CTR, yet a lower ratio ... but might work out better for me.

Nothing wrong with the layout, after all it is just tables. My I suggest this, remove that banner and in its place explain what the site is about. This way the text will load first and they get a chance to read it before the Pics load. Also, surfers dont like the word FREE, when they see free they think POP UPS. Why, because when this email thingy came out every one and his mother was pushing it with TGP. CLICK HERE FOR FREE...pop up hell.

Gees , I keep coming back to edit my FREE explination, lol. You could mention FREE when , say the site has a free video sample but dont tell them the membership is free, from my expirence they dont trust that

Or you could just buy a gallery template :winkwink:

Good luck

ok i dropped the FPA, but cant add mouseovers because one of the TGP's doesnt allow me

hope this helps!

Any tips on the text?

I have bad luck with bought templates ...

#1 i think they are very graphics heavy pages

#2 i find simple templates work better (IMO)

#3 i dont like to wait 4 weeks for the template after i order it (not giving names, heh)

#4 your right about the "FREE" ... good idea

wow!


I got 4 signups since i dropped the FPA in the middle!


good idea! (whoever that was)

I do 1:25 with PornKings Exit traffic.

"#1 i think they are very graphics heavy pages" mine are far from heavy :winkwink:

"#2 i find simple templates work better (IMO)" very true

"#3 i dont like to wait 4 weeks for the template after i order it (not giving names, heh)" 2 days here :winkwink:

Oh and I edited my "FREE" statment on my other reply, check it out

Ray

thats great for exit traffic!

You may now shoot me 68 signups?

Damn, ok, so I am a broke sucker over here, that does sound good to me. I trade you anytime with my shitty signups I had today pfff

:helpme

#1, it was 86 not 68 (sorry for typo above)


#2, it isnt that great, it only comes to $72 so far

costed me more than that for the gallery spots, thank goodness the bandwidth is free, lol
