Suddenly I started get more customers in January, February and March. But since mid March they are dropped again. Quite strange actually - but perhaps it is not time for reorder or?

Me too. My stats show more traffic and I’m competitively priced. However, my sales will drop off by 80% from one day to the next, and then go back to normal the following day. This happens with some regularity and I can find no explanation on my end. Very suspicious indeed.

it is an overall trend...don't loose any sleep over it.
things will pick up.
but year after year the same pattern reveals itself...April and Spring in general is slow...

Cannot say it better. Seeing this year after year, sale will be back to normal in May for sure

Looking forward to May :)

Also add consumer spending in general is WAY down. I noticed this way early on across all my sales channels.

Just an observation... I don't wanna get too far off topic.

All of the HSN templates I see require PHP5/PEAR, which is kind of a hassle because not all hosts support it. A Google search for the error string that your templates return when not installed on the server correctly shows a LOT of your affiliates that have given up. (eg. http://physicians-rx.us/)

Instead of setting aside a small budget for direct mailers, e-mailing, etc. I'm surprised you haven't set aside a small budget to create some simple templates with a more widely supported technology.

Have a nice day! :)

I would really like some SEO friendly templates!

I was just about to post the very same thing...
I think they could greatly expand their affiliate base with some simple templates that are easy to SEO. But, after years of asking and bazillions of emails gone unanswered, I think most here have just given up on them...

[HSN-Andrew]

We are working on release updated templates and have contracted with a graphic designer and have several new templates we are currently coding.

If you have specific technologies you want us to insure our templates support please email me and I will get them onto our technical operations team.

Thanks :)

Yep, and it is thriving! I'll be set up for telemarketers next week. Any takers?

SEO and templates are not words that normally fit together well.

Good point, although there are a number of Rx-Payouts and Rx Parthers template sites that rank extremely well.

I'm looking forward to seeing the new stuff from HSN. ;)
