OR
Is it better to send 20,000 clicks to 5 sites?
The sites are identical. What makes more sales?
The stats majors says no diff. The wm picks the latter (5 sites)
And most of you would agree the wm would be right. Yet none of us knows why. Or maybe you do know why.  Or maybe there is in fact no difference.
Just know its usually best. I think. The old vets always had maybe 3 sponsors top.
Anyhow, still sucking. |
The simple answer to this question is the problem of minimum payouts. You can send 100 sales, 1 to 100 different sites, and never get paid out on any sales because you haven't reached the minimum payout threshold.
The deeper answer is not all clicks are created equal. Sending tranny-seeking traffic to a straight dating site isn't a profitable venture. Matching your customer to your product is key in improving your ratios.
See? It's not all numbers and philosophy
