How Much Traffic Do I Need to Make Sales Online?

This is the question a lot of new marketers online want to know the answer too, I did as well when I first got started online but unfortunately I found out that the answer was not that simple. I am assuming that you want to make more sales with less traffic, in order to do this you need to focus more on the quality of traffic coming to your website.

The average traffic to sales ratio of any website online is anywhere from 1-5%, for a product that sells for less than $50.00. This means that for every 100 visitors you receive to your website, you will make 1-5 sales provided all the other factors are optimized properly. The primary and main factor you want to consider is the quality of the traffic coming to your website. You want to make sure that you are receiving traffic that is targeted. I cannot stress this enough!

The traffic coming to your website has to be traffic that is pre-qualified for what you are offering online. In other words, to be closer to the 5% in this example you want the traffic to already want what you are offering or be interested in what you are offering. Let me give you an example,

You are selling Home Owners Insurance on your website, if it were possible that visitors to your website were interested in buying a home, this would make them more likely to want or need your product or services which would increase the number of sales you would make.

This is the reason why quality traffic is so important to your online business, and can increase the number of sales you make while reducing the number of visitors.
