Hello ?

Hope everyone is well? I’m Jordan, 25 and I wake up at dawn to graft my **ts off like a lot of people do and have always done.

I’d say I’ve awoke from the rat race and time is money ? so I decided to start my own travel comparison “company” website and it’s been going great ?? the views the clicks are amazing the sales however ? NOTHING.

“I’m not trying to sell anything may I note ? “

Does anyone have any tips on how to ORGANICALLY get sales? As I’m trying to do this with a extremely low budget ? I’m just trying to think outside the box

Let me know what you think ? please come say hi ?‍♂️ I can post my link privately if you’d like to check it out and throw some criticism ?

Hi Jodan and welcome to UKBF.

What are you trying to sell? I'm a bit confused as to what you could be selling on a comparison site.

Hey fistic We compare holiday packages, and promote/advertise them at discount prices through our partners, where we receive commissions we don’t deal with anything other than promoting (middle man) basically I can message you my web if you’d like so you can get an idea it’s fully functioning

It's not going to get you any sales because you are unknown. When I book a flight need to be able to trust who I'm making the booking with. You have no contact details, you are not registered with ABTA or any other travel organisation. For all I know you could be taking our money without actually booking anything.

You are entering a highly competitive industry where the big players spend millions on marketing. Your chances of success are virtually zero. Sorry to be so blunt but unless you have deep pockets this just isn't going to work.

    OP, you seem confused. One the one hand you state you are not trying to sell anything to anyone, and then state sales are non existent. I assume you are looking to build an affiliate website.

    Either way, you need to understand, you are trying to sell, even if it is just an affiliate link. Hard to say much more without better info, best of luck, as stated you have chosen a tough marketplace.

    The reason for sales is because my site isnt trusted yet buy google so working on a few Seo problems and go from there

    If people have found your site, poor conversion is unlikely to be down to google, where if you were suffering a lack of traffic it probably would be.

    I cannot ever remember being on a website, being worried about Google’s opinion of the offers, I’m only interested in my opinion of what is being offered. I would suggest you get as many people as you can to look at your site, not friends or family, strangers, and ask them why they would or would not buy through your website.

    Your focus is on how to organically get sales, but the question is have you truly focused on what you have to offer?

    Meaning, if I were to go to one of the bigger comparison sites, would I notice a difference in regards to what you have to offer?

    You are getting clicks and views but no sales, maybe what you have to offer is just plain and provides no true value.

    Maybe there is something wrong with the website, this could be anything from the lack of information/clarity to the presentation of the website.

    If I could see the site, it would be easier to gauge where the issue may be

    Well done for your great work ethic - it's one of the essential things to have if you want to be successful in business!

    What are you trying to sell on your comparison site?

    Have you considered things like how strong your branding is?
    A client of mine has an awesome tool to scan your brand online and get a free brand audit, and free consultation.

    I personally found it really helpful for my own business so might be worth checking out too:
