Why conversions mean jack shit...
 

So I'll be honest, I don't usually check my stats. I find a new nice looking site/program, build some traffic sources for them, open the gates, and move on...

I just finished up some work and decided to take a peek at what I have going. I log-in to 1 sponsor and see I sent around 15,000 clicks with about 35 sales. The end conversion came up to 1:400. I check out another sponsor, same amount of clicks sent, but more sales! Meaning a better conversion, I clocked in at around 1:300.

Now based on those conversion rates (both taken from first page hits), I should continue pushing the second site even harder, right? WRONG!

The first program, with the lower conversion, earned me TRIPLE the amount of money the second program made me. Sweet tits.

Fuck conversions. Look at the pay stubs baby!

gotta compare the dollar to the click.. not the sale to the click :thumbsup

i only look at sextracker stats. the rest is irrelevant.

:thumbsup

Its all about return on investment, baby!

Hehehe even your grandma in her weelchair who never touched a computer couldve figured that...in like 10 seconds.

But :thumbsup

conversions are right you're just being shaved

Deduct bandwidth costs.
Then count them pennies!

Like said before it's all about return of investment.
Traffic for porn is cheap while mainstream traffic can be quite expensive.
With porn I have a ROI of about 200% most of the time.
With mainstream I do around 400%.

Excellent post. :thumbsup

poor guy, someone throw him a bone...he seems nice...

I wish all the webmasters looked at it that way. Very Good Point.

So true
