Is 1100+ affiliates a good result after 10 months?
 

program owners, do tell me

If all send traffic then yes, if none send traffic then no.

Active affliates or total number of affliates?

30-40% are active

How many send more than 10 hits a day?

yes .

Yes thats good. Im sure you have a few major sites in that 1,100

60% of all active ones

that looks good to me. if you have that 30-40% sending in alteast 3 signups a day you should be a happy man.

Well, thats not bad then :thumbsup

thats not realistic, even though I wish it would be :)

cool :glugglug

:glugglug

Depends on what your goal was when you started it. I assume you had a goal :P

cut the shit.. how many signups per day..?

If you compare it to other CCBill only sponsors definately. I think only cascade billing and NATS could make you more successful.

my goal is to make more each month, nothing more :)

cascading doesnt always mean more sales, it should be 10% more, but thats only a theory(as I do have 10% declines), I tried different things and more join options doesnt always mean more sales

private info :)

With cascading sponsors where I can see which processor gets the sale, I usually have ~10-20% more sales that'd be otherwise declined depending on the month.

Also targeting russian webmasters can help you to get more sales. FlashCash, Cyberage and a few other US based sponsors already realized that russian webmasters aren't mostly scammers but hard working webmasters.

I don't know but I think it's far from bad :thumbsup

I would judge more by the productivity of the traffic they send, rather then the total numbe of people who may or may not send traffic

I cant get more than 10% more sales, as those are the denials. :)


I have none banned countries, Im open for all honest webmasters.

Andrej that's a good amount for the first 10 months, but it's all about the affiliates who are active. 60-70% dont send anything, focus on them sending traffic :thumbsup

i say those numbers arent bad

I mean advertising / announcement posting on russian boards.

thanks. any tips? :) I heard some programs have even more inactive affiliates, thats probably common, that they sign-up for different programs even if they dont have enough traffic for all of them.

my news are announced on penisbot, those guys are russian(connection with master-x board), if Im not mistaken

My understanding is most programs work the top 10% guys versus try and get the bottom 40% to do anything. Who knows what is best?

Can't find anything on master-x beside a pasted 2257 announcement.

Those are the most popular russian boards these days, maybe that helps you to get more good webmasters. :thumbsup

thanks for the help, but those boards are in russian language, I dont speak russian :)

I was hoping you would ask that.

T3Report can help you there.

It gives you the ability to see every link to you. You know who your active affiliates are, use the T3Report to discover how the inactive affiliates are promoting you. Then you can approach them with suggestions on how they can better promote your program.

It could be as simple as moving a banner, changing a banner, or using a better text link.

You can easily make your money back with a minimal investment and a little time. Besides, I am sure any affiliate would be happy to get some tips on how to best promote your program and make more money.

Nextdoorcash rocks. Keep up the good work guys! :thumbsup

checking the site as we speak(write)...:)

I would say you are just inviting trouble then. While not all Russians are scammers is not to say that a high percentage of them don't come from there.

There is a reason why certain countries get banned.

This is no Danza or MetaformX crap we are talking about so try to avoid beeing an ass :winkwink:

you've some great sites andrej :) and yes 1100 is great

congrats

Have you ever worked with russian webmasters? I don't think so...

You have 10% declines on new sales with ccbill? From my experience, it's closer to 30% with ccbill (no cascading).

Don't ask questions you do not know the answer to. Yes, I have several Russian affiliates, and one of my Sys Admins is Russian. What is your point?

I have also had many Russian affiliates that did nothing but try to scam the system. My program does not ban countries, but I do ban webmasters, and sorry to say, a majority of them have been from the former Soviet bloc.

They say one bad apple spoils the barrel, and unfortunately for the honest Russian webmasters, there have been many barrels spoiled.

Why do you think so many programs will not deal with Russia except on an individual basis? You think Reagan brainwashed all of them to not like Russians or something?

ccbill US or ccbill EU? and you have to look closer at those denials, many of those who got declined come through few seconds after with a different card, etc

I can send you 100's more aff.

I am JUicy. PR Extradoodinaire.

I know you can. :winkwink:

That you're saying "you're asking for trouble". Russian boards just allow legit business talk and some of the best business partners I have are russians.

If you check each new affiliate and those who generate signups it's not that hard to weed out those who try to fuck you over.

General prejudice build up by bigger companies who couldn't screen affiliates in the earlier days of affiliate programs or didn't think it's worthwhile.

Maybe if you have 100 affiliates, but you can not spend all day trying to track down every site that every affilaite has up, especially when they start "laundering" their traffic (another good use of the T3Report).

Looks like u need an affiliate manager to go and work the other 50-60% into an excitable fever to promote your sites

Keep up the good work man! :thumbsup
:1orglaugh

I dont think there is a program out there with 100% active affiliates, thats most probably impossible. :)

CCbill US. And let me analyze those decline stats, see what percentage to get through with a different card. I can't imagine 2/3rds but interesting to see.
