Sales are Slow But My Website is Converting. Any Insights?
Greetings WA friends,
I was going to post my question in chat but decided to create a post because this requires a little background information.
This past June, I started earning money as an affiliate marketer for the first time ever. I had tried on and off for 18 months, and things finally came together. I had six sales.
The following month in July, I had two sales in the beginning of the month.
I have now gone for 30 days with no sales but there were 61 affiliate links clicked from my website. So, I am doing my job: I am getting people to the vendor's website. For whatever reason, no one is buying this month. These are not particularly high-ticket items. They are courses (digital products) that cose $10 - $15.
I just started making money, so I have no idea if this is normal or not. I remember Jay said in our training on Friday that once you get people to the vendors' websites, it's pretty much out of your hands. Should I just keep at it because I know my website is converting? Or do I need to investigate?
My conversion rate is around 4%, so maybe I'm close to another sale(?). I would appreciate any insights from those who have a website that is converting as I'm not sure what my new normal is.
Many thanks!

to be honest I would just wait. You still have only a very small amount of organic traffic to your website. You can increase this by more content. Depending on the niche it may well be slower during the summer months even if it is an evergreen niche
Sounds good. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Just logged in and guess what? A sale! With all those clicks I was sending the vendor, it was bound to happen. It just took some time. Thanks again for your insights.
