Worst sales ever the last 3 days, anyone?
 

Our sales are 40% of normal the last 3 days... all ratios are going crazy..

No server problems etc etc.

Are we the only ones seeing this?

Seems so.. everything normal over here :upsidedow

I'm afraid that I was looking for affiliate answers here ;)

who do u push mostly, what biller is being used, are their forms loading fine,

having some problems, but only instead of usual 1:1000, its now around 1:1500-1:2000.
So its 40-50% decline in sales too.
Main sources of traffic are TGPs and SEs

yep, the last two days were shit.

dittooooooo

this month has been slow for me, but that's mostly my fault I guess

Yep crap here for a couple of days...:Oh crap

i been busting my ass. last week rocked, this week rocked till two days ago. then, NOTHING. I got a few sales on my blogs but nothing worth talking about. this suxors, hope it picks up soon.

We push a wide range of sponsors using a wide range of billers..

But seeing that 90% in this thread agreeing on this low sales comforts me and then again it scares me...

Yup things are terrible of late.

I actually started crying today... so yes, the last two days are fucked.

Sales terrible.. worst ever (3+ years) on ANY CCBill sponsors. Working 18 hours a day trying to figure out WTF.

sales are WAY up on goodoldxxx.com and my regular gallery type sales have been consitent for over 3 years now..

yeah it's kinda shitty week over here as well.... I hope it'll catch up in February...

seems tgps are becoming more worthless every day. i still don't understand how things can get bad so fast. around this time of year is usually the best for sales.

mine have been fine the last few days

Well maybe beacuse is end of month so people dont have money anymore.

Let's be real... it has to do with the abundance of free porn. Unless you have a unique site that's updated weekly (at least) it will continue to be hard. The easy days are gone :2 cents:

Traffic is down. Very sad.

yes... bad period!

bump you up

The sky is not falling. Christmas bills are DUE. We've seen this SAME PATTERN every year around Jan 20!

same here, i been up for two days straight trying to get things right. pumping in extra traffic, working traffic trades, fucking everything!!!!!!! Fuck it, i just might just load up the sandrail and go hit Glamis for the weekend. :thumbsup

exactly

We knew this was coming - checked stats for 05 and 06 and it was the same thing. Traffic is the same, sales are less, we added the ccbill currency show deal and that helped a lot though. Seems ppl wanna know what theyre getting billed in their own currency.

Yeah, sales have been slower last 3 days, less attempts, and also more denials..

Some here, sales are just missing. There is not much increase in declines though.

Ok. I have to check my statsremote to compare. Don't have it available right here..

just paid $1500 in household bills.. I'm guessing that the rest of the planet is feeling the "heat" aswell... sales are decent at UnrealBank.com, but not exactly a record month...

CCBILL :

2004-01-22 to 2004-01-25 =The clicks are gone in the stats, but tons of sales...
2005-01-22 to 2005-01-25 = 1:750
2006-01-22 to 2006-01-25 = 1:972
2007-01-22 to 2007-01-25 = 1:3171

Let me add that it's not only CCBILL which is dead right now, it's every single sponsor with a few exceptions

From reports I'm getting from my affiliates, it seems to me that most of the bigger affiliates in each traffic market are seeing a decline across all sponsors, different billing companies and various backends starting the 8-10 of January. It had picked up this past weekend and shot back down on Monday.

I know that my personal stuff is running at about 60% normal sales for the entire month and since it's all basically SE stuff, various niches and traffic is still the same, there's definitely something funky going on across the board. November was good, December was great and I was hoping a pattern was beginning. Not one biller in particular, not one sponsor in particular, not one traffic source in particular either - the things that make you go ummm.

A man with some kind of sense. Exactly right. Sales will pick up again in February, March and April.

anyone else notice an increase in trial signups across everything?

Here's some of my stats. I did good 2 days ago, but yesterday did suck pretty much. Just like today. :(

Most get their xmas bills in feb

yes very true - just stay cool!

Yesterday was somewhat slow for my personal sales. Today has started much stronger :)

Same here. Not due to less traffic but n unusually high percentage of bank declined transactions, up to 70% (!). At first I had a theory that perhaps there is some peripheral pressure by the gov't to the certain banking institutions to decline adult (high risk) transactions. It doesn't make sense that decline percentage would be around 35% to over 60%.

However, the theory mentioned several posts above that people's cc's are maxed due to christmas bills makes clear sense. We shall see if the situation improves.

Id love to her your take on the JFK assassination and on who killed Hoffa

The surfers cards are all maxed out right now. They all just got back from the show in vegas

best answer yet lol

No so bad here, but it´s true this is the worst week on this month.

has to be a surfer money issue because trials have gone up alot

i agree with senior lightspeed. xmas bills are due!

The last two days were shit.

Sure; let me just get done reading about these other silly conspiracies on how the gov't has essentially choked out the online gaming industry by blocking all those transactions, while arresting principals of 3rd party processing operations. You know how unrealistic these things are.

last 2 days were same as normal for me, however today is sucking balls :(

this month if great for me, lots of sales

Monday was great, since then just normal...
