Conversions Lower During Holiday Season?

[Mike90]

the conversions are not too bad actually , I guess it depends on your niche . Conversions don't drop for every niche .

I'm banking more than ever; but its the niche. Before xmas is big for lots of things.

 

[EricVonDoobie]

EricVonDoobie - what niche are you talking about bro?

Just about anything not "seasonal" really: ClickBank products, CPA offers for edu/dating, etc. Everything seems to slow down and take a hit for me--I need to set up some more Amazon niche sites to even out the gap I guess.

Everything not seasonal has gone down 4-5% for me. The best thing to do is to make up for it with a seasonal offer. Ran one of those santa letter offers and had a $4.33 EPC.

 

[Fresh2Death]

Up and down. Def dependent on your niche.

 

[cheshire]

Diversify. I love the holidays.

I think a thread like this comes up every year around this time lol. Last year's big thread I think was a diet related one....

 

[GreenMachine54]

I think it depends on your niche and marketing strategies.. I've found that I do better during the holiday season... There are more people on the web and more people focused on buying products...

Industry Statistics - Online holiday sales are up 12% - Internet Retailer

Roll on Jan - not many people looking to make moniez online in the days before xmas.

 

[vinnythejinny]

anyone noticed a dip in traffic as well? not many people around or away?

 

[frank90]

things are going real slow and dead for me this month as well..

 

[MegaBunch]

Not here.

Son... business is a boomin'

 

[frank20]

Depends on the niche, but typically, yes.

What you said is true but I believe it depends on the niche in question 'coz some niches experience a sudden up sourge in sales eg:gift, travel and holidays

 

[Scito]

Nov/Dec are the best months of the year in terms of revenue for me, focus on retail and gifts. Dating will be BOOMING in january, so get ready for that.

I'm really surprised that some CPL offers crashed last 2 days though, browser games. You'd think kids will signup because they're bored, looking forward to see what it will look like in a few days .

 

[erifdekciw]

Bumping thread, Has anyones numbers increased yet?

 

[MistorToker]

if you're that worried just pause everythign till the third. i for one saw an increase until christmas eve. no seasonal shit either

 

[MrBradshaw]

One thing you will learn over the years is everything has specific good times and bad times. No offer is great 24/7 365. Some are good in winter and fall. Some are good from 8am to 5pm... some 6pm to 12am. You have to get to know the flow of what you promote so that there's no surprises.

But, never forget that when one offer craps out, another one is booming.

In the past 20 days I've made enough to buy a Maybach. Everything's not down.

Do more research and find what's working.
