270 raw hits, no money yet!

[Danny]

Hey Guys,

I got 270 Raw Hits and 2 sales this month but I haven't got any money yet! This data is based on StatsRemote.

What's your conversion ratio guys?

It really depends upon the site and the casino I am promoting on that site. I have got some like this:

208 Unique Hits - 0 Sales
1024 Unique Hits - 1 Sale

And then...

82 Hits - 5 Sales

So, it's really across the board. And many will sign up and not play (or play for free). So - give it time, it will work. It took me about 6 months when I started to get a depositing player. I know others that it took a year to do so.

does 2 sales mean that 2 users deposited real money?

If its took you 6 months, I don't think I'll get anything in the near future.

But thanks for the complement Guard Dog.

2 Sales - That can mean something different in each program. Typically, though, a sale just means that a person signed up at the casino. It does not mean they deposited (in most cases).

So - there are times when I have 20-50 signups in a month and only 1 or 2 real depositers.

I've got a couple of programs that do really well on conversions and some I have tried have done absolutely nothing.

If I find a casino that I like (good casino, good customer service etc) I test out the affiliate program for a few of months and see how it does

Here is an example of one of program that I am testing right now (one weeks stats) - It's not one that I send much traffic to as I'm restricting the banner to a peripheral page for now, but the proportions look typical. Not great, not bad, just typical.

New Real Players 9
New Wagering Players 6

However, one big factor is how the casino manages to retain players, so I will be testing it for a few more months and deciding whether to promote it more after that

Hope this helps...
