UK Payday Loans

I can't post in this thread as it has been closed

But I am wondering if anyone is using them and how it is converting?

I have sent them a bit of traffic but conversion is under 3% so it just seems a waste of time especially when adsense is paying £2 a click as an alternative.

Any other thoughts?

19% approval rate for me this month... to have a conversion rate of under 3% you must be doing something horribly wrong, or getting really low quality traffic.

Are you bidding on or ranking for terms that would lower the quality of traffic? Like "payday loans bad credit rating" or something?

btw I doubt you'll get £2 a click... I tested that a couple of months ago and it was £1.

thanks for the info, it's good to sense check against others conversion rates

majority of traffic is coming from a pretty generic term, so not sure why I am having such a shocking conversion rate.

What's the score with integrating forms in to loan site, is it a copy and paste of some html or is proper coding required to do it?

I have loan domain which I stuck on Sedo 13 days ago, has the following stats since then:

39 Views
15 Clicks
€2.16 Revenue

Of course, Sedo revenue is rubbish and I could probably earn more just by having a site with Adsense on it, but think this could do better with passing loan leads on to companies as the click rate is quite good, but not sure how to do this.

Are you pushing enough volume for the 3% to be statistically relevant? If you converted 3 out of 100 applications, you might be seeing nothing more than a bad run that will even itself out over time?

systreg - 2 minute job to paste a few lines of code that will insert an iframe form - see my site for example.

I've had 6 leads convert from 54 submitted. so 11.4% conversion for me. (total earned is £102)

@ Frog, thanks, think I'll have to give it a go and email Lead Afffinity, cheers.

Do you need a consumer credit licence when dealing with financial leads like this?

Heard back from Lead Affinity this morning, they're going to set up an account for me to supply leads to them, asked them if I can also use my tenant loans domain if it doesn't sell today.

Cheers, Frog.
