The 7 or 8 sites that make sales every day range from 1 sale up to 15 sales per day. So an 'average' day means, network-wide, 40+ sales. A "good" day and it's closer to 100 sales per day.

Since Sunday (the 1st day of the billing week for CCBill) until this very second:
11 sales in 3 days, network-wide.

Traffic is the same (even UP in some cases).

Finally, knowing that I would have a TON of traffic hitting today (20,000+ uniques) hitting my best-converting website (Fellucia Blow) I switched my Cascade from CCBill to Epoch at midnight (Tuesday). Wake up, 8,000+ uniques.....2 sales.

With that kind of traffic we would expect 15+ sales.

So i switched back to CCBill 2 hours ago. 35 form hits = 0 sales.

Denials HAVE been off the charts lately but this is fucking insanity. I did this test today/last night, with this website with these traffic sources because, if this were a month ago, even two weeks ago, we would've seen mass sales. NOTHING has changed in the above equation - NOTHING - and when you have months and months of data, over 2 million visitors, etc that proves incredible machine-like consistency then THIS happens you know something is very, very fucked up (with both CCBill and Epoch).


Today? Bullshit.

So i dunno guys....time to ask Tony Parra for some Subway applications.
