Referals vs link hits ratio


Hi everyone,

I recently started a freeclickz account and so far have used business cards and eBay to refer people. One of the features that I thought was really nice about freeclickz was that it showed you how many links hits you have had.

In the last 12 hours I have had 14 hits via my referral link but I have no yellows. I know from reading the forums that a good green to yellow ratio seems to be about one in five but how about a yellow to link hits ratio? And is there a delay in getting yellows similar to the delay for greens or is this instant?

I’m just interested as all of my previous greens have come from friends or family and I’m pretty excited about even getting a yellow from someone I don’t know!! However if I’m not even getting any yellows then I’m guessing my methods are pretty shoddy and I need a rethink!

Cheers everyone

I also like the FreeClickz feature, but I have written my own PHP/mySQL script that looks at the referer and tells me where the hits are coming from and how many I have had! Not sure about the best method, you should be picking up quite a few yellows though!

Very clever mate!

I'm eagerly awaiting my first yellow, seeing as how you have this tracking facility available, could you tell me if referred sign ups are shown on your account instantly (as yellows) or is there the usual 'crediting' waiting time?

LOL

Quick calculation based on my 14 hits in 12 hours works out to about one green a month! I just signed up to this via a trade anyhow so it's no biggie if it takes forever! I guess i'll just wait and see.

Cheers for the downer though!!

When someone registers using your link, they're instantly shown as yellows. They can take a while to go green though!

Looks like I’ve just had people sniffing around then! Might review my "sales pitch" and try and make it a little more enticing….

Still hunting that elusive 1st yellow!

Re: Referals vs link hits ratio


I tend to agree with Mica about the offers. Any possibility of getting LOVEFiLM involved?
