Hits and Sales

I’m still getting hits on the site. Some of them are bouncing straight back (100% bounce rate) but it’s still traffic far faster than I’ve ever got before on one of my websites. The only thing is, not one sale as yet.

The page setup is the default one. I’ve changed the logo a bit, re-written the post away from the standard spiel but kept it ‘tight’ and still no sales.

The support at AffiliateX is saying I have to work through the pdf’s and I’m sure there’s a wealth of information in there to evaluate, absorb and regurgitate to make this site work. I’m getting hits on the site but still no-one’s clicking through to purchase.

Where am I ranking in Google? My backlinks have been setup (the other day), where am I?

I perform a quick search and at the moment I’m around page 20.

So, in front of me, at 10 sites per page, are around 200 other sites with a large proportion of these with some variation on the fatloss4idiots.com domain name.

Ahhhh, I get it…!

So, at the time of writing this post, Googling ‘Fat loss 4 idiots’ comes up with around 26 pages worth…one review site (suggesting that all the others are scams and you must read this site first) has the line, “If you did not read through this fat loss 4 idiots review first, you could be kicking yourself in the head later on.” as an attempt to get someone to believe them..Mmmmm, maybe I’m missing something. The amazing thing is they’re on page 1 of Google so they must be doing something right.

As for me. At the moment I don’t have the time of the energy to push this. I have to admit the AffiliateX site has a wealth of stuff on their website. Almost to the point of overwhelming the reader, the user, the Affiliate.

What to do? What are my thoughts at this stage?

Time to ponder and take stock.
