My problem is preselling. I have a fair amount of traffic, but I've only had one sale in 3 months. Do people get disappointed in buying when they find out your just a doorway to another website? I'm offering name brand beauty and fitness products. Any advice on this topic would be appreciated. Take a peak at my site and tell me what you think.
Thanks.

some people do get thrown off of it at times, it just depends on what kind of traffic you are getting, I mean are you getting traffic that wants to buy, or window shop per se? Might can focus more on your keywords and make them into phrases that way when someone types in a search for your phrase, then they can come to your site, and 9 out of those 10 kind of users are looking to buy, not just to peek at stuff.
Hope this helps :)

Ok, thanks for advice. Will give this a try. If I don't at least try it, I will never know.

exactly hun, and we all have made mistakes in this biz, so no worry about failing, just consider it a lesson learned that you can carry on with you. So by not benefiting by something, you can still benefit from it, just in another way, if that makes any sense

I think your biggest problem is people don't know where to click:
http://www.thelookoffame.com/index.asp?action=page&name=9&subname=6
On that page I only found 1 clickable link (besides the navigation) and that link looks like the rest of your content. Black font. Other pages you have everything in bold, hard to read. You need to make where to click, clear.
Also checking your other pages, they have different fonts, different sizes, different colors. No real flow. Decide on one and stick with it thru the site.

Thank you all for the great advice. I will make font size the same on all pages. As far as the link to click on. I originally had written "click on link below to order" but, had read in (I believe it was the adwords) terms and agreement that you could not advertise in your content "click on link" otherwise you could be ban. I tell you what, it seems like certain sites just don't like affiliate marketers. If you don't have a shopping cart, they aren't interested in working with you.
Any way thanks again, it helps alot getting opinions from others.
