Lycos Insite Adbuyer

Good conversions small rate of traffic

[dedelus]

When Insite adbuyer first started I got almost as much traffic from them as I did from Findwhat. A few months later they dropped to a small percentage of what I got. They have picked up a little over the last so many months but don't come close to where they started at. The quality is still excellent though. Hopefully they will build it back up someday.

Thanks,
Rob

What kind industry are you in? I haven't tried it yet because I didn't expect the Tripod & Anglefire crowd to convert very well.

I am also curious because they use the same engine as FindWhat but the performance is chalk and cheese. I dropped Lycos after 7 months and it took a loooong time for the money to deplete. Very low traffic in the b2b area.

I have only one site that both gets a decent amount of traffic and converts well from Lycos. The 18-25 demographic 'sort of have a web clue' make up 80% of the conversions, and Lycos can be a good place to reach some of that traffic.

I market all kinds of affiliate products. I found that free insurance sign ups and webhosting has worked well for me at Insite. Like I said though the traffic as dropped to a trickle although once in a while I still get a sign up or a sale.
